I really don't know how Eddie freaking Lacy makes the All-Pro team but Forte doesn't? That is a load of crap and makes me dislike GB even more. I hate even thinking this but if Lacy, Rodgers, Nelson, Cobb, or Jones tears an ACL this weekend, I won't feel sorry for any of them. Then Marshall and Jeffery both getting jipped as well. One of them should've made it. I thought Jeffery had a shot since he was neck and neck with Gordon for most of the season. They probably cancelled themselves out, but D. Thomas made it with Decker and Welker. In the end, we had no national support this year (what's new).

Both 1 year deals. Not surprised, keep hearing good things about Boggs and I think he's a quality backup for Garza(if they resign him) Martin's a real goor special teams player, perhaps has an outside chance at putting up a fight at either safety position.

According to the SunTimes there was an enormous interest in Cutler and you have to give credit to JA for pulling off what could be the biggest trade in decades......

Nice to see. And Wolfe gets his first TD! Good second half on this one.

it's a new era in the nfl. gambling cartels in all probablility decide who wins games and who loses or at least the spread on points and probably about a hundred different things that can be bet upon. it's not even close anymore. the refs can choose to shave points or decide who wins or loses on selective penalties and calls during multiple games every week. they control the clock and the flow of each and every game which in turn controls the scores or other gambling points. is there any investigation into these allegations? certainly not. too much money is involved. the nfl itself is either complicit with this or just plain stupid, the same is for the owners. t…

Was scrolling and found the below. I don't think we'll be heavily investing in OL next year. Trapillo looks like he's ready to be the guy. Benedet can be the next man up at all five positions. If Kiran gets his act together, we're deep for the next two years...

Edge - Young*, Howell*, Parker*, Jacas, Thomas DT - McDonald*, Miller, Hunter LB - Allen*, Rodriguez, Hill Jr CB - McCoy*, Terrell*, Hood*, Ponds, Cisse IOL - Bisontis, Pregnon A lot of impact guys still left on the board. The Bears should be able to get 1, if not 2 of the guys listed, and most are top 55 rated players. The guys with asterisks had 1st round or early 2nd round projections.

Between last year and now , Poles has changed the offense to be capable of high end production. Adding DJ is easily the biggest move and I rate restructuring of the OL second. I think ever spot on the oline has been upgraded. I expect Jones to be better. Jenkins is an upgrade over Whitehair that didn't have a good year. Whitehair is easily a huge step up from Mustifer. Davis is a top 10 RG in the league. Wright, as a rookie, will be better than Reif last year. WR room: Moore, Mooney, Claypool, V Jones, Tyler Scott , Pettis, ESB. How are the targets going to be distributed ? Ideally Moore has close to 100 catches, Mooney and Claypool both reach 60 catches each, S…

If OTC is correct, we are projected to have 1.4 million in cap space next year. That's not good considering the free agents we will have. I looked at a few contacts that may be overvalued and the best scenario. From left to right (player, cap#, dead money, savings and action taken) DJ 28,4,24 Trade Post 6/1 Edmunds 17, 2,15 Trade Pre or Post 6/1 Dayo 20,0,7 Restructure Jarrett 19,4,15 Trade Post 6/1 Johnson Can't cut, trade or restructure. Gordon 23,2,11 Trade post 6/1 Chart is ugly. I don't think a miracle is gonna happen with Gordon or Jarrett. DJ and Edmunds can get us 39 million back if traded. Add in …

No surprise but thrilled non the less. Living outside of the Chicago area always love it when the Bears get national attention.

A good read for me of one persons opinion on how the Bears will use their running backs this season. https://www.windycitygridiron.com/2019/5/20/18616944/chicago-bears-the-myth-that-is-backfield-by-committee-david-montgomery-tarik-cohen-nfl-2019

My Pick To Click On Offense Was Javon Wims And So Far He Has Shown Promise. On Defense Like Bilal Nichols And I Am Holding Out Hope For Kevin Toliver.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bears | Have placed call to Burress Comment (0) Tue, 16 Jun 2009 09:30:30 -0700 Brad Biggs, of the Chicago Sun-Times, reports the Chicago Bears have placed a call to the agent for free-agent WR Plaxico Burress (Giants), Drew Rosenhaus.

http://www.chicagobears.com/news/article-1...e9-0aeb3937a916 If Royal has no issues and can practice Friday then we should see him paired with Alshon this weekend. I've seen no reported setbacks on White's practicing so far so he might be on track to play a few snaps against the Vikings. Marquess Wilson appears to definitely be out of this game.

This is the most excitement I've had aince the Super Bowl. I believe our defense will play better, because we will have more time of posession and hopefully less turnovers.

I noticed Christian Jones playing in the 2nd half but never saw any report on Bostic. I see now he injured his back. Hopefully this isn't a long term issue because he was starting to play well. http://voices.suntimes.com/sports/bears-li...ss-to-panthers/
