Fit speed is Brandon Marshalls training facility...We all know Jeffery was going to be training with Marshall but I just wanted to point out that E-Rod and Armando Allen are also training there as well. (Didn't really know where to put this so why not a new thread?) It was noted that Marshall went from a 4.7 to a 4.4 40 in 8 weeks while training at Fit Speed. A boost in speed to all of those guys would be fantastic.

I was just a little curious on Tucker as a coach, so I looked up some stats to have a closer peek. I looked at only NFL as he was with Ohio State before 2005. http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorystats?arc...e&Submit=Go 2005-2007 CLE DBacks coach 2008 - CLE D COORD 2009-2011 - JAX D COORD 2012 - JAX D COORD/ASST HC 2005 - CLE was 4th in passing D 2006 - CLE was 18th in passing D 2007 - CLE was 9th in passing D 2008 - CLE was 7th in overall D Average is in the top 10 for the stint in CLE. Take out 2006, and it's even better at 7. Removing the hi & low scores, it's about 8th. 2009 - JAX was 10th in overall D 2010 - JAX was…

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.

"Forte only had five runs, but we probably called 15 for him," left tackle Jermon Bushrod said. "When we got up there to run these plays, it wasn’t a correct look or we had too many people in the box or they dropped a safety or they did this. It’s a lot that goes into these plays that we run. If it doesn’t look good to the quarterback, we’ve got to go out to the edge." So why did they not call the run on the other plays instead of just passing the pall. That did no work very well so why did he not call a running play. They would not of gotten 150 or even 100 but they would of gained a lot more then they did. And some of those runs sould of been by Carey, I though…

Rodgers, Sharper, Knox win NFC player of month honors Posted by Mike Florio on October 29, 2009 4:34 PM ET The NFL has unveiled the players of the month for October. For the NFC, the offensive player of the month is Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who somehow generated a 123.9 passer rating while otherwise running for his life behind a porous offensive line. He completed 74.5 percent of his throws, and he averaged 10.5 yards per attempt in leading the Packers to two wins in three games. Saints safety Darren Sharper is the NFC defensive player of the months, thanks to three interceptions in October, two of which were returned for touchdowns in three g…

He has some good insights into our offseason with the new coaches, strength and conditioning program, Oline, and the WRs. Most of that is in the first half of the interview and the second half goes further back to his days with Angelo.

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

Let's beat these clowns! C'mon Bears! Bear down!!!!

http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2009/...-insurance.html for 1 week at least

was on the ground and rather than touch him down the vikes player choses to land on him. In the process his leg gets rolled. Sure hope it's not serious.

Cutler dont care

The playoffs are upon us. Congrats to all the teams that made it to the 2nd season. The bracket is set, 1 and 2 are on byes, 4 plays 5, 3 plays 6. 1 - Fields of Dreams 4 - PapaBear --------------------- 5 - The Mad Lithuanians---------- 3 - Nips&Tips--------------------- 6 - SAVAGEw/LOOSEMORALS!--- 2 - Nopper In other news, I need to know how we want to address absent managers. We had a manager not update their lineup basically all season, including thru byes and IR, which gave some other teams some free wins and impacted the playoff positions. Since this is a pay league, I want to ensure everything is as fair as possible. Any suggestions …

It looks like this will be the end for Eddie Jackson and Cody Whitehair. Cutting them both this offseason would free up almost 22M in cap space with about $10M in dead cap. Jackson has been ok, but too often injured. Whitehair has been slowly degrading into a below replacement level player and you can't pay those guys $13M a year. Jackson is due $18M, there is just no way I see him on the roster next year, so the Bears will have to look for a new FS in FA or the draft.

My hope is that Trubisky progresses like Goff. The quality of our defense and running game will help a lot.
