I know everyone is pissed off, rightfully so, but let's keep it clean and stay away from personal attacks, political statements, or anything offensive (race, gender, etc). This is a time where we need to unite and come together as a fan base, and force changes within the organization. So let's keep it clean and provide some content other than "they suck." We are better than that.

In reading today's articles about JA's interview it seems he's changing his strategy a bit from what he's done in years past. Recently we've taken players who fell a bit due to injury. Of course everyone knows what happened with Williams last year. In the past we've taken Bazuin who I believe had a bit of an injury pre-draft that was aggravated in camp. Of course we took Harrison in Rd 3 and Bowman in Rd 5 who both fell due to injury concerns. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://blogs.suntimes.com/bears/2009/04/an...ss_2009_nf.html "Angelo on drafting players with medical c…

One HELL of a game! Those two QBs (Tua and Burrow) are going to be something in the NFL. Look for Bama and LSU players dominating the draft in the next few years.

This is a pretty good article about the Bears' offensive alignments and the Packers' defensive alignments. http://espn.go.com/blog/nfcnorth/post/_/id...martz-vs-capers

Another QB slot that needs to be filled. I don't think they will have Hill as the starter, so Winston? They have cap issues. It will be interesting.

I will have the videos later, but the Bears (Edmunds) caused a fumble after a completion to Travis Etienne, but they overturned the play on the field as an incomplete pass. It was clear that Etienne caught it facing the QB, then turned to go forward when Edmunds punched the ball out. The call on the field was fumble and Bears recovery. Then in the ARZ/GB game, James Conner did the exact same thing, catch and turn, and they called it a fumble in GBs favor. No review. Crazy.

http://www.kffl.com/hotw/NFL?page=3#ixzz24cQJMzSr The Chicago Bears are exploring the possibility of signing free-agent SS Charlie Peprah (Packers). The Green Bay Packers, Peprah's former team, reportedly released him after he failed a physical on the first day of training camp. Peprah did not participate in offseason workouts after having arthroscopic knee surgery. The Bears want to examine the knee before proceeding with signing him. The Chicago Bears will release WR Chris Summers and DE Derek Walker and will waive FS Trevor Coston and place| Brandon Hardin to be on IR

I've been seeing a bunch of online rumor-mongering around the idea of a trade deadline deal for an Offensive Lineman. All of it seems to be around the Guard position. There are at least three different names I've read. I'm not saying this is going to happen at all. Just that people farming for clicks have been saying it. But my question to you guys is, if you were going to trade for an OL at the deadline, and assume the player would be pretty good, but not necessarily blue chip, like a top 10 guy, but not a top 5 guy - which position would you trade for? Which current OL would you replace? For me the OG question has been a little better with Pryor and Jenkins/Mu…

I got a group of about 22 Bear fans going on Sunday!!! anyone else want to join???

https://www.nfl.com/news/phyllis-george-female-sportscasting-pioneer-dies-at-70 One of the classy ones. She was more than just a beautiful face in the 70's. Just loved the broadcast teams they had in a lot of different itinerations. Howard, I. Cross, Dandy Don, Jimmy the Greek and a bunch of others. MNF and NFL Today was worth watching just to see the highlites of the games you could not see anywhere else. She was always one of my favorites, period.

Interesting to see who they cut for Edwards on the 53-man.

Someone mentioned Brandon Thorn in some posts (forgive me for not remembering who) as an Oline analyst. I accidentally came across his Substack so I figure I'd post the link here in case anyone is interested. https://trenchwarfare.substack.com/ https://trenchwarfare.substack.com/p/ol-scouting-notebook-2022-nfl-combine?s=r Like everyone else I'm highly interested in Oline this draft but I'm also not an expert in analyzing the finer points of the positions. I've kinda had Raimann as a target for us somewhere and watched as he reportedly moved up to as high as a 2nd Rd prospect. His arm length makes me think we take him off the board as an OT. We already have …

With Fields now also a runner and the emergence of Herbert in this scheme, it really looks like Montgomery is the odd man out. He has only had one rushing day over 70 yards all season, and since the offense started scoring 30 a game, he has averaged 3.55 yards a carry and 47 yards a game. He is on pace for a career low in attempts, yards, yards per carry, and TDs. His longest rush this year is 28 yards. Obviously he is going to command more than his rookie deal, but I can't see him getting anything like even what Conner or Fournette got (3yr, $21M). What do you think he is worth? Do you think the Bears give him that contract? I say they don't and let him walk.…

Surprise here to see Fields ranked among the top 15. Also shocking is seeing him ranked ahead of Rodgers (14) and Stafford (22). This author also has Brock Purdy listed as 15th best QB in the NFL which is just ridiculous IMO...and I'm a fan of Purdy's. https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-qb-index-ranking-all-68-starting-quarterbacks-from-the-2022-nfl-season https://www.si.com/nfl/bears/news/justin-fields-gains-high-spot-in-qb-rankings

While it looked like he would be back in 2013, he won't be it was announced today.

At some point they’re going to have to adjust these low totals to account for our defense. We’ve given up over twenty five points dating back at least ten games while going 7-3 over the total our last ten. This year we’re a perfect 4-0 over the total with the only close one being in TB. The total for Thursday sits at 44 currently for those of y’all that wager.
