Bearstalk

Now at first most say this is only Fantasy Football, but on the other hand, there is some correlation between stats and points. The Bears offense positions finished no worse than #12 at TE, and Defense comes in at a respectable #14. By position: Cutler - 11th Forte - 5th Marshall - 5th Jeffery - 7th Bennett - 12th Gould - 10th Bears Def - 14th Forte, Marshall, and Jeffery all made the Top 20 overall as well. If Forte, Marshall, and Jeffery finish in the top 10 of their positions, Cutler is easily a top 10 QB. http://sports.yahoo.com/news/2014-fantasy-...-204748821.html

LOSERS: The Bears coaching staff The decision to squib the kickoff with 11 seconds remaining cost the Bears the game, plain and simple. What was with the soft zone in the secondary, allowing Michael Jenkins to catch a 26-yard pass to put Jason Elam in field-goal range? This is a team that could be 6-0 right now with some better coaching decisions. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=cr-w...o&type=lgns

Okay, I won the consolation, which means 5th place "boobie" prize. Is that like being Mr. Irrelevant? Do I get a trip to Disney. Seriously, congrats to Bradjock for the 1st place win. Personally, i think you should feel dirty winning behind the arm of a Green Bay Packer QB, not to mention his favorite WR, but to each his own:) And how funny that you rode Cedric Benson to glory. Nice 3rd place finish Pix. Honestly, not sure who DevilDogs is, but good team and great profile pic I mentioned this on the FF site, but I just have to say, this was a solid league. I love the fact that no one, regardless of record, seemed to simply quit, which really ju…

It's interesting to read and post about current players and potential new additions, but the coaching staff lifted my eyebrows more this year than any, and I've never been a Lovie fan...(but that's another story) Any rookies that have made an impact made it immediately. We haven't developed anyone. Our team was one of the least disciplined team on the field every week. And all this after the season of off-the-field incidents last year. It seems to me that the coaches are just Lovie's buddies, and not necessarily talented football coaches. With the exception of Toub, would any of these guys have a job outside of the Bears? I think not...

Year 2 QB - QBR Tracker Penix - 83.7 QBR - 298 yds, 1 TD, 1 sack, and 21 rushing yards. 319 Total Yards. Lost. Daniels - 55.1 QBR - 233 yds, 1 TD, 3 sacks, and 68 rushing yards. 301 Total Yards. Won. Maye - 39.3 QBR - 287 yds, 1 TD, 1 INT, 4 sacks, and 11 rushing yards. 298 Total Yards. Lost. Nix - 19.2 QBR - 176 yds, 1 TD, 2 INT, 1 sack, and 18 rushing yards + 1 fumble lost. 194 Total Yards. Won. A few things to note, Nix saw the 2nd lowest Pressure Rate of any QB this week at 18.6%, while Daniels saw the 3rd lowest Pressure Rate at 21.6%. Those two QBs had it easy, yet Nix looked really really bad for a QB at home in the 2nd year of the same …

Emery is not f-ing around! I think that bodes well. Mr. Smith, thank you for your years of service. You did all you can. But we need more. Time to restore the roar!

Haha. .. he's a monster

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_ylt=Ar65...ears122610& Im guessing the Giants getting their asses handed to them again isnt news either.... Why is ok for the jets to squeek by Detroit, Cleveland? and the Patriots to gived up 24 to Matt Flynn led Packers? Im the first to admit this team isnt very good, the coaching refuses to change any scheme and we would more than likely get beat up in a Super Bowl, let alone playoff game, but my god...

The motto of the offseason is "Get Younger & Get Better." Sign WR Reggie Williams - Still young with a great skill set, just hasn't lived up to the hype. Given the Bears desperate need for a big WR, I'm willing to give him a shot. Sign WR David Patten - Still has good hands and knows how to get open, and he doesn't seem to be the kind of player to pout if he doesn't get PT at this point in his career. I think Hester could learn a ton from him, at the very least, and he could be a nice "go-to" guy on third down if he can stay healthy. Sign OT Ray Willis - Player RG and RT in Seattle last year. Pencil him in at RT unless a stud we draft is clearly ready, …

This dude's idiot father not only doesn't want to hire an actual NFLPA agent, but he's also asking completely idiotic questions about foregoing NFLPA collective bargaining rookie salary structure, and yet again about team equity. Dude is going to be a combination of Jamarcus Russell and the the Ball Brothers moron father. The Bears absolutely can't take the risk that his father convinces his son to hold out, or to take it even further, basically holding the Bears entire franchise at ransom. TRADE THE PICK. https://www.outkick.com/sports/caleb-williams-agent-nfl-draft-status https://theathletic.com/5301341/2024/02/28/caleb-williams-quarterback-nfl-…

has got to go. Moving Manning yet again. Steltz getting most of the reps at FS in the offseason and now is inactive. This coaching staff is done. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...earnt04.article Peace

Has there ever, EVER, been a HC more ignorantly stubborn, more ridiculously incompetent, more hilariously overmatched and bewildered by the ability to challenge via instant replay?! This guy constantly challenges the wrong plays, and looks baffled with that Zombie Lovie look when the call doesn't go his way. It' almost as if he's saying, "Yeah, I knew it, but I have these challenges so I may as well use them." And don't even get me started on the plays he DOESN'T challenge. It's time to put the pink paper into the printer so Lovie's pink slip is ready as soon as the season ends.

I'll take Knox over Hester any day of the week. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2Jiv_MawMA&feature=sub Peace

Our Defense is going to be horrific. By far and away the worst S tandem in the league and I can't imagine much worse at LB. There isn't one guy in the back 7 that can lead the team and call plays.

Time to liquidate some assets to address the big issues. 1. Let Briggs go. He is good...but not as good as he thinks...the D was bad this year with him here IMO that means he isnt a difference maker. Besides Chicago area uteruses could use a break. 2. Trade Dez Clark...use him to move up in the draft if need be. 3. Trade Alex Brown. Same scenario. The points of 2 and 3 are to clear out where there is depth...and use some of that to obtain additional picks or pick value. 4. Dump Miller, do not re-sign Reuben. Rationale is not a good one...I am getting the vibe that Lovie and Co value veterans over talent in key areas... 4b. If nec…

Of course, we all probably knew he was gone, but it appears that the Browns want to make it known. Maclin to the Browns Don't you wish every team before the Bears would do this so we could just get down to debating about the left over players?
