Bearstalk

Despite the 0-3 start I've held that I like the young players we have. Injuries have forced some into action sooner than expected with some negative plays as a result. Instead of the flashes of goodness we've seen in the first few weeks this week it was about consistent execution. That's a big step forward for them and getting this first victory will be huge for their confidence. Offense: Kevin White: I've seen comments about waiting to see a breakout game. Not that I disagree with that, but much more than seeing the explosive big plays, which I think are in his future, I wanted to see consistent execution from him. Be where he is supposed to be on time …

Jeff Dickerson ‏@ESPNChiBears 10m Filed to ESPNChicago: #Bears agree to terms on one-year deal with DE Turk McBride, per a league source. Had a decent year in Detroit 2 years ago, did nothing in Nola.

So Iv'e been thinking a lot about this FA offseason and made comments on how I would do things differently. Seems it was unpopular as an opinion. So, I'm having my coffee and thinking out loud. Here's my position by position thoughts on where we are. QB, IMO is more than good. I was OK with McCown and Enderle as backups. That being said, I feel better about QB than EVER. QB is definately upgraded, with a sidenote of cost. WR was a huge position of need. I am more than happy with Marshall. Cutler is putting his clout to work with team and I really trust him if he vouches for someone. I'd be awesome to see Knox as the speed compliment to Marshall, but I don't see …

Will we be having a draft day contest again this year? Last years contest was

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300000064...for-2016-season I think this is good for the game and will change the game. It is common to get a chop block on the outside when a team wants a quick WR screen or inside slant. This should increase chances of getting to the QB too because OTs who get beat to the edge can't dive out there to take out the legs of the DE or LB. I expect some linemen will struggle with this and some RBs who like to dive into the knees of oncoming defenders instead of squarely taking on the player.

Watch "Joy To Lamar Houston" on YouTube Joy To Lamar Houston:

Here is the first depth chart for the Broncos game. Notice that Webb is the starter at LT. , and D.J. Moore is listed as a 4th string CB OFFENSE WR: Brandon Marshall/Earl Bennett/Dane Sanzenbacher/Terriun Crump-Chris Summers LT: J’Marcus Webb/Chris Williams/*James Brown LG: Chris Spencer/Chilo Rachal/*A.J.

Even the GOAT of kickers doinks one every now and then.

I just read this article, and it makes an interesting point. Quinn played DE, and OLB will be new to him. I expect that will show most on keeping contain and playing the screen, stuff like that. But we brought him here to rush the quarterback, and Roquan has his back on that side too. And all of this only matters in base defense. We're in nickel about half the time anyway, and he will play four-man-front DE in that formation anyway. Im very optimistic about our front 7. Who do you double team? It's gonna be fearsome. https://chicago.suntimes.com/bears/2020/6/18/21296170/chicago-bears-chuck-pagano-robert-quinn-3-4-defense

Not that there are games we don't need to win but with Minn getting lucky yet again are now 6-0 GB winning are 3-2. A win tonight puts us at 4-1 and keeps us a game behind Minny a loss drops us to 3-2 and puts us with the Packers at 2 games back Plus it's a conference game. To win we are going to have to play a complete game Atlanta is too good to waltz in there and sleepwalk through the first half and expect to pull it out in the second half. We must establish the run and win the time of possession battle. Atlanta is a fast track we need to utilize that with our speed guys Hester and Knox. Offensive line needs to protect Jay Defensively we need to get …

1. Marvin Austin, DT, North Carolina 2. Danny Watkins, OG, Baylor 3. James Carpenter, OT, Alabama 4. Kendric Burney, CB, North Carolina 5. Ryan Winterswyk, DE, Boise State 6. Shiloh Keo, S, Idaho My THOUGHTS, not WHAT I WANT.

This would be a huge signing. He was one of the RGs I wanted at the beginning of free agency once they missed out on Bates. Very reliable and not many penalties. Would be a plug-and-play RG and instant upgrade there. A Whitehair-Patrick-Schofield interior would be very solid and an upgrade at basically 2 positions from last year (Patrick > Mustipher, Schofield > Daniels).

Anybody listen to the Ray Rice comments on his incident with his (now) wife. He talks about his lessons in life and about becoming a better person. He knocks out his wife on tape and drags her out of the elevator and down the hall. Here is the article refering to his press conference. http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football...ticle-1.1803771 What a douche (one of Alask's favorite words). No matter what players do on the field, we are defined by our actions in life.

Could be make a run at Manning?

Similar injury as what Freeman was lost for the year on. Brutal since they were are two starters...2 weeks into the season and the injuries really piling up (2nd consecutive year). Football is such a brutal sport.

Why don't we EVER see the White C?

A great analysis of the NFL schedules over at SharpFootballAnalysis.com. Bears have 17th toughest schedule but have the 4th easiest in terms of opposing defenses. This bodes well for our offense, it should really explode this year. Expect some high scoring games. Like the Panthers, the Bears’ offense might be able to capitalize on its early (Week 5) bye. Chicago has the NFL’s second-softest schedule through Week 10. They play five bottom-five teams during that span, although they are favored in just three of those games because the Bears are also viewed as a bottom-five team. Note that Chicago plays the NFL’s fourth-softest schedule of opposing defenses, includin…
