Agreed. There is no downside to playing him now. In fact, it's best to find out now if he has any value. Peace

Agreed and I'm going to the Packers game. I certainly do not want to watch Siemian play but it makes no sense to risk the health of Fields. Peace

Spot on, Jason! They just need to keep doing what they are doing and be ready for the offseason. Any wins right now do not help the team moving forward. A top 5 pick (in almost every round) helps the team immensely. Peace

Way too early IMHO. I would say we should give him until the end of next season. Peace

Soldier Field was rocking yesterday. Fields was simply fantastic. I can't believe how awful the officiating can be at times but the loss will actually benefit us at the end of the season. It's just great to see Justin break out. His development is the #1 priority this year. Peace

Roquan was not coming back here next year unless tagged. The fact he doesn't have an agent makes it extremely difficult to negotiate with. Further, he plays a luxury position that the Bears cannot afford to pay 20 million a year for. I wish him well but am glad he's gone. Peace

It was our 2nd rounder but I have no issues with this. They needed to get Fields help and Claypool is an immediate piece you can plug right away. His presence makes all the other receivers better (most importantly Mooney). Peace

I love this trade. Wish we could have got a little more but clearing room in the rotation for Robinson and Gipson to get more reps is huge. The cap space going forward is an extra bonus. Peace

All of this. Poles inherited a complete dumpster fire. I had absolutely no expectations for this year. As a STH I am just glad I was able to witness a win in person (Houston). I don't expect to see another one (maybe Detroit). My only concern for this year was answering the Fields question - is he the guy going forward? At this point, I think we may have to push that to next season. Peace

Take the best 3-tech DT on the board. Peace

Chicago is not going to get a 2nd team - no way, no how. Peace

I'm never really had an issue with Ted other than he was in a job that he wasn't qualified for. That's not on him, however. The McCaskey's promoted him. They own all the issues we've had these past 20+ years. Peace

No way they go into the season with just 2 TE on the roster. Peace

Young is probably done in the NFL. Peace

The Kansas Comet. I can't wait until the Bears open their own HOF. Peace

I'm to the point where I say you make a final offer and tell him take or leave it. If he says no then trade him and move on. He's a very good LB (not a great one) and is not worth the headache. Another note - You can see Eberflus is to the point where he doesn't want to deal with this anymore. I actually feel bad he's the middle man on this. Poles needs to tell the media that all questions about Roquan will be addressed by him until the contract situation is resolved. Eberflus needs to concentrate on the players he has available. Peace

He said it was a take it or leave it offer. We actually have no idea what has been said or exchanged. The major point is he shouldn't be negotiating. He should have an agent. You also note he has no leverage here. That is the most important point. They'll eventually reach an agreement. Peace

How do you know he's gone? I would say it's probably 75%+ he stays. This is a negotiating tactic - nothing more. That being said, he really needs an agent. You can't take this personal - it's business. Peace

This sucks but it's early enough where he can be back by the regular season and it gives Kramer a chance to get a ton of reps. Peace

This 100%. Peace

Fxxk!!! This crap pisses me off to no end. Hopefully, the holdout doesn't last too long. Peace

Wishing him the best in his life going forward. Peace

Quinn needs to show up to camp to help make this happen. Peace

Pix - It's been a while my friend. Hope you are doing well. I see Gary every few months as he lives about 10 miles from me. He goes with me to a game every year. Take care of yourself. Peace

It was obvious that George had a high amount of respect for Soup so I love this move because it shows they are letting Poles do his job. Peace
