Raiders | To interview Reggie McKenzie for GM job Wed, 04 Jan 2012 07:29:14 -0800 Green Bay Packers director of football operations Reggie McKenzie is expected to interview for the Oakland Raiders general manager position Wednesday, Jan. 4, according to a source. Hopefully the Bears don't sit on their hands and at least interview him to see if he has what it takes. Though I am concerned if Ted would even know what right looks like. After all he doesn't have his hiring firm telling him what to think this time.

Has anyone ever done this before a game? Would love to hear about your experience. https://www.reggieslive.com/show/chicago-bears-tailgate-party-28/

Has anybody heard when they will be releasing the full NFL schedule for the upcoming season?

Look back at the 1985 Bears with a pretty sweet video, this definitely makes you feel good looking back at this.... it's worth the watch even if you aren't a Bears fan. They really did DOMINATE the NFL. http://www.chicitysports.com/2009/08/14/re...tness-85-bears/

Watching the NE vs DEN game, holy hell those teams look like crap. Maye has 55 yards passing thru 3 quarters and 3 sacks. Whoever wins the NFC will crush either of these teams. So many what ifs for the Bears. They had a legit shot if they beat LA.

I took a look at the roster and moves the team has made since the end of the season to see where the holes were in the 53-man roster to see where they will look next. Based on that, here are some positions they will address: 1. Safety - The team lost HHCD, McManis, and Houston-Carson this offseason, 3 of 5 opening day safeties. I think they have a chance to bring back Houston-Carson, and maybe even McManis, but right now the team is down 3 safeties, the most of any position group on the team. 2. OL - The team lost Long, Lucas, and Larsen from the opening day roster, but eventually gained Bars. However, the team is down at least 2 OL right now. 3. ILB - The …

This is more than likely how the season will play out: WK10 - vs DET W, 4-5, offense has over 100 yards in the first half, is applauded for offensive explosion, ClubDub in full effect WK11 - at LAR W, 5-5, Eddie Jackson with first INT of season but return for TD is negated by block in the back (Skrine) WK12 - vs NYG W, 6-5, Shaheen and Burton both catch a pass in the same game WK13 - at DET W, 7-5, Lynch only jumps offside once WK14 - vs DAL W, 8-5, Cohen gets a first down while not running laterally for 25 yards WK15 - at GB W, 9-5, Fuller and Amukamara only play 7 yards off for the entire game WK16 - vs KC W, 10-5, Leno reduces his mistakes to two holdi…

After the first quarter of the season, we are through the toughest part of the schedule, which was expected. Most had us at 1-3 after 4 anyway. Now it seems like we shift into an easier quarter of the season, currently scheduled to play teams with a combined record of 5-10. We should at least split, if not go 3-1 in the next 4. That would put us between 3-4 at the halfway point. Then we go into a tougher quarter playing teams 11-5, and 1 win seems to be the most realistic outcome (though we could split depending on what STL team shows up). Then we get into the final quarter against teams currently 5-10 again like the 2nd quarter. To me this sets up for 7-9 wins and…

Here is what we have left, if we show any additional improvement, and get some guys back off injury, we actually have a shot at the playoffs, but the next 3 games will be critical. @ STL (4-4) - winnable game, STL defense is tough, and Gurley has emerged, however, we are better against the run than the pass, so this plays into our defensive strengths, and if Forte and Royal are back, we have great shot with our offense. vs DEN (7-1) - Denver's defense has masked just how bad the offense and Manning have been. A mid-November game in Chicago and Fox knowing a lot about the players gives us a shot. If Indy can beat them, we can beat them. I expect a close game, and w…

Right now, with current records, we only have one game vs a prospective playoff team (LAR), and 3 games against potential playoff teams (GB and MIN x2). If we split the division and go 3-2 the rest of the way, beat the teams with 2 or less wins (BUF, SF, NYG) and lose to LAR, that's 6-3 the rest of the way without too much stretching. Week 9 at BUF (2-5) - Bills are coming off a MNF game and a short week. They have scored 81 pts on the season in 7 games. We should and need to dominate this game. I would consider resting Mack and Robinson again if they are not 100%. 5-3. Week 10 vs DET (3-4) - Lions games are always determined by which team or Stafford shows up. Are…

Probably a bad time to do this after a bad game but I have a lot of free time in Thailand. First of all as much as Nagy and Pace has a bad year but there not going anywhere. So trying to create that chaos is a waste of time. For 2020 we have 12.5 in cap space. 1. Cut Long saves us 8 mil. The rest of the line isn't going anywhere cap hits would be terrible for them. 2. At WR give ARob a new contract to reduce this years cap hit of 13 mil. ( reduce cap hit to 9 this year.)Cut Gabriel 4.5 , and Patterson to save 5 mil 3. Floyd is not a pass rusher but can play football. Due a contract of say 3 year= 27 mil with only 10 guaranteed. Saves 4 mil.…

Next year we will be in cap hell with no QB and a below average team. The players with some cap relief that we will need to choose to cut or keep. dead money cap savings Hicks 1.5 10.5 Fuller 9 11 Leno 5.1 6.2 Massie 3.9 5.4 Skine 3.3 2.8 Graham 3 7 Players we cant cut due to dead money Mack-Trevathan-Whitehair-Jackson-Goldman-Quinn total= 118 mil in dead mon…

This all starts with our new coaching staff. They all look like studs and we will have to see how that translates to the football field but the arrow is pointing up. Everything we did is contingent on Trubisky being good, the signs say he could be real good. At least we upgraded the talent around him. QB-we appear to have more competent backups this year with Daniels and Bray ( we will find out if MT goes down) RB-Howard , Cohen, Cunningham, Mizzell, Nall Howard will excel in this offense and Cohen will be a star because Nagy will use him properly. Cunningham is a good backup that could carry part of the load if Howard would go down. …

This is amazing! http://bearswire.usatoday.com/2017/04/10/t...blow-your-mind/

Since it's so slow while we wait for players and owners to agree on how they can all be rich I decided to post this article I found on the Bears website. Great story with some great names in it. I only copied one small paragraph below http://www.chicagobears.com/tradition/hof-connor.asp During his eight years in Chicago, Connor gained the rare distinction of earning all-NFL honors at three different positions-offensive tackle, defensive tackle, and linebacker. Although George is remembered as one of the finest of the post-World War II tackles, it was as a linebacker that he enjoyed his greatest stardom in pro football. He was one of the first to become a regul…

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300000042...with-buccaneers He is having a falling out in Tampa and had a lot of success in San Fran. At 30, he won't be expensive and my guess is we will eventually sign him.

ROBERTSON DEAL ISN'T HAPPENING For the second time since Friday, a deal that the Bengals thought they'd make to upgrade a subpar defense has fallen apart. Alex Marvez of FOXSports.com reports that the trade between the Jets and the Bengals for New York defensive tackle Dewayne Robertson is off. The sticking point was Cincy's insistence that Robertson re-do a contract that is set to pay him $9.8 million in 2008. Unless and until the Jets find a team for whom Robertson is willing to take a haircut, the likelihood is that Robertson eventually will be cut before a $3 million roster bonus comes due in June. instead we chose micheal haynes and grossma…
