I would add that the Bears currently do not have the pieces in place to run the 'greatest show on turf' offense that Martz would bring. Peace

To each his own. Water under the bridge. Peace

Pixote - thanks for the support. Bears 88 - I don't want to make this a bigger deal than it is. If you wish to discuss, send me an email at mustachspot@msn.com and we can converse off the board. I am hoping my explanation is enough and we can move on. Peace

Not sure how the respond to this. I do take offense as I have been concluding all my posts this way for years on our previous site. I am not pushing a political position or belief. It is more I am wishing everyone on the site a safe journey through the day. If you remember Hill Street Blues, the watch commander everyday would end the meeting by saying be careful out there. This is my way of saying the same thing. Look, I don't know you other than you are a Bears fan. I would never profess to tell you to change how you post unless you were attacking another poster. I guess I would ask why this bothers you? Peace

Reported on the SCORE that he hasn't worked out at all (not in shape to play). I would assume this means he will be a game day inactive and they will evaluate him in the off season. Peace

Reminded me of Dwayne Rudd waving the ball in Edgar Bennett's face in the late 90s. I remember the following yr, Big Cat pancaked him and let him know we didn't appreciate his showboating. Peace

Giants had the Sunday night game where they had 10 drops (against Washington). Wind conditions were horrible. Kept wondering why Coughlin felt the need to keep passing. Peace

Locked up on the roster now so you can evaluate him the whole offseason. Peace

per the SCORE 5 yrs, 37 million. Peace

More concerning to me is the quality of the drops. I can think of quickly 3 dropped TD passes (Berrian against Dallas, Hester against NY, and Moose against GB). These were killers. We cannot leave plays like these on the field. Peace

Got to hear Williams on Bears All Access on the SCORE last night. I was fairly impressed. Interesting note is he learned how to study game film in high school from his high school coach and he prides himself on game preperation. Peace

You really think Berrian is even better than this guy? And you're calling Crayton marginal? I have watched him and he is alot more physical than Berrian. Berrian has more speed but suspect hands is the equalizer. I would definately say yes but I really don't think you can compare the two. The primary reasons are the Cowboys have consistent QB play (Romo) and a running game. The Bears offense is a mess. Really the issue is what is his value. I don't believe I can answer that at this time. Angelo has a tough offseason ahead. I do not envy him. Peace

for next yr from the Suntimes. Not sure if I agree with everything they are proposing but they do cover most. Interesting note is that Fred Miller has played all year with a partial torn MCL. Why the hell was this never mentioned????? Not saying that changes my opinion on what should happen with him going forward (he needs to go), but at least we know now there were other concerns. Also, Moose 3.3 million cap value next yr - no thanks. Get him out of here. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...-bear28.article Peace

and other news. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...earnt28.article Peace

I don't think Riddeau will play over Hass this yr. I doubt either will play Sunday. Just a way to get Riddeau under contract before the offseason. Peace

Give him the 2nd lowest tag. He is valuable enough as a Special Teams players to keep around for 1.5 million next yr. No one will give us a 2nd for him. Peace

I believe Rasheed is a RFA. He will most likely be back for next yr but you really don't want him as one of your top 2 receivers. Peace

Riddeau resigned per the SCORE. Peace

I really don't see Gage and Wade as decent receivers. I see them as the best in 2 crappy receivers groups. Engram was cut so the Bears could sign Marcus Robinson to a long term deal and that was over six yrs ago. Booker facilitated getting Ogy which, overall, has been worth it. BTW - I wish we still had Engram. He is a great possession receiver which is what we need. Peace

"95 Adams, Anthony* NT - Meh. I could care less. I am sure a good fourth rounder could replace him" Disagree. He played very well this yr and provided good depth. "20 Archuleta, Adam SS - Meh. If it doesn't hurt the cap too much, he might have to leave" Disagree. Get him the hell out of here. He is being payed to play safety and cannot. "60 Metcalf, Terrence G - Meh. Hopefully he'll play better" Disagree. Has shown nothing in six years. Get him out of here. "99 Walker, Darwin NT - Stays. Good backup" Not unless he is willing to completely renogiate his contract since he is do a 5.2 million dollar roster bonus in March. You don't pay that type of money to a backup. Otherwise, I basically agree. You may have to keep Griese if you cannot sign Grossman (who knows with the crappy QB play what the market will be. Peace

Rough season for the Bears from an injury standpoint. He will be the 13th player put on IR. I think they lost over 60 starts to injury this yr as compared to low 20s last yr. Obviously, injury was not the primary reason for the Bears downfall this yr (coaching, personnel moves, inept play) but it did play a part. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...earnt27.article Peace

Agreed Moose needs to go (especially if Berrian is resigned). We have no idea what the hell Bradley can do after 3 yrs (this is disturbing). Rasheed is a nice special teams player who is at best a 4th or 5th receiver - no way to compare him to Welker. We have no idea what we have in Hass. I would love to see him play but to say the Bears should have cut Moose to play him is a bit absurd. If anything, they should have given him Rasheed's reps for a few games. Please don't mention Gage or Wade in the same statement with Engram. They are average receivers on bad receiving cores. Engram has over 550 career receptions and has been in the league for over 10 yrs. They can't hold his jock. Peace

See above in the thread. NO would have to have twice the average of offensive snaps for him not to get 75%. Peace

I read somewhere that Briggs currently has well over 75%. If he sat out this game, New Orleans will need to run 112 offensive plays for him to go under 75%. Peace

this weekend per the SCORE. Personally, I would rather give Williams the reps and have Lance take a seat. Peace
