Callahan is strictly a nickel corner. Burns or Vildor will be CB2. Peace
-
He should have been cut after losing his cool in the first Saints game. Peace

You knew this coming when they signed Peters. Getting anything from Jenkins this year will be a gift. Let's hope Peters has one more year to give the game. Peace

Visited Bears training camp today with my brother and his boys. Observations: 1 - Much more like Platteville than Bourbonnais. Platteville was very laid back. Bourbonnais was was too corporate for my taste. 2 - Jaylon Johnson had 2 picks of Andy Dalton. The 2nd was beautifully timed where he jumped over the receiver on a long pass to haul it in. Dalton did have a nice throw to Allan Robinson on the sidelines. 3 - Justin Fields made a fantastic throw to Jesse James on a deep side-line route that went right over the top of the defender Charles Snowden. It really was a thing of beauty. 4 - Watched the defensive line practice for about 20 minutes. The D-Line Coach Chris Rumph was outstanding. He really worked his players. I believe they would run through a wall for him. 5 - The pictures I have of the d-line practice are of Akeem Hicks and Khyiris Tonga. Hicks was growling like a Bear and talking to the fans. He even handed some Gatorade to a couple of kids. I'd love for them to find a way to keep him. Rumph was riding Tonga hard making him take extra reps. I think they know he could be a special player if he stays focused. 6 - The facility was very intimate. The new practice fields are surrounded by woods and back up to the Metra line. 7 - The Bears are spending some good money on this. Parked at the Hawthorn Mall and was bussed over (tour busses not school busses). Plenty of staff and things to do for the kids. I was impressed.

We get a 5th in 2022 and gave them Miller and a 7th. I'm good with this trade. Miller is extremely talented but he's way too much trouble. Peace
-
Agreed. It's time to move forward. Peace

Dan Pompei said in an article this weekend it would cost 8 million a year to break the lease. Given the construction cost of the new facility would be around 3-4 billion (also per Pompei), 8 million a year for maybe 6-7 years is a drop in the bucket. As a season ticket holder since 2002, I am absolutely behind this move. I love watching games in Soldier. I hate the rest of the experience. The bathrooms and concourses are bad, and getting to and from the stadium is a nightmare. A rectractable-roof, state-of-the-art facility would bring at least one Super Bowl and many other large events we currently cannot host now. Peace

Great video. I can't wait to see him on the field as a Bear. Peace

ChilBear & Pixote - Thinking of you today. Losing someone close to you is something you never fully recover from. Wishing you both the best. Peace
-
I'll believe he's gone when it actually happens. I'm not getting my hopes up until then. Peace
-
Yeah, this is fantastic! Peace
-
Love this signing. Peace

Agreed 100%. Leno has been a stand up team member so it's good they cut him right away to give him a chance to find a new home. Peace
-
I think you need to go WR/OT with the next two picks in any order. And tomorrow trade Anthony Miller to move up from the 6th to the 4th. Peace

My neighbor, who was a marathon runner, had ALS. It is a horrible way to die. Sending prayers to Mongo and his family. Peace

Bears one of first teams to skip voluntary...
Connorbear replied to BearFan PHX's topic in Bearstalk
This 100%. This isn't about the locker room. Most teams are going to opt out which I have no issues with. If the Bears don't make the playoffs this year, Pace and Nagy will be gone. It's as simple as that. Peace -
Trade a 6th and Miller for a 4th. Peace
-
This would be fantastic. Peace

I have said for years the Bears need to keep pushing their chips in until they find their QB and then continue to do it. The Packers had Favre and still drafted Brunnell, Hasselback, Detmer, Brooks and then Rodgers. They were able to trade a couple of those and get a return. QB is the most important position in the game and the Bears are simply have no idea how to address it. Peace

Hell no. Peace

Mitch will be in the league for 10+ years as a fringe starter, backup. He's not a bad QB. He's just not the outstanding QB we wanted him to be. The amount of 1st round QBs that fail miserably in the NFL is staggering. Just go back to 1998 where the Bears picked McNown 12th. Couch, Smith, McNabb and Culpepper were all drafted in front of him. Couch and Smith were complete busts so that's 3 of the 5 taken in the 1st that completely busted. It happens all the time but you have to continue drafting QBs until you find one. This is where Pace has failed after saying he would draft one every year. Peace
-
Good guy. Meh player. Best of luck to Mitch. Peace

George ran the ticket office until around 2010. I had a run in with him with my season tickets back in 2005. He made me a promise he didn't keep. In fact, he admitted he was breaking his promise because I hadn't been a season ticket long enough. I don't have much love for him or his family. Peace

Mikey hasn't been the problem for the past 20 years or so (since the Dave McGinnis fiasco). Ted and George have been leading the parade since then. The Bears Board of Directors needs to initiate the change. Peace
