ASHKUM BEAR

Not only are we in a trap game, so are the Rams. A little magic can spring us into a 2 seed. I think the Bears get this, these kids are hungry and like the meal a win brings.

If you go off of health, Amos seems to have that going for him. When money sits in the ice tub like it did with most of our top talent the past few years it does weigh on decisions. The Bears will spend a 3rd or 4th on one of those db positions to groom and probably a fa signing, so I almost see Amos staying unless he gets unreasonably high priced.

10 games look tough today. Teams will make changes this offseason so it is hard to say, like Brees and Rivers could retire? The Bears are still in position to add and improve for at least one more year, so I expect us to stay at a top level.

With the division champs locked in, we now know our 2019 schedule. When you win, the battles become tougher. Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, Detroit Lions, NFC East-Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles, New York Giants and Washington Redskin, AFC West-Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Chargers, Oakland Raiders and Denver Broncos, NFC North division, New Orleans Saints and the Los Angeles Rams.

Time to tighten the pig? I feel the opposite. We have one year we lack picks, this upcoming draft. Afterwards we have two 2nds instead of a 1st. The players might demand, but who has the contract to play? They cannot keep them all, but we have time.

He has started before, as I recall you didn't notice him. In a way, that is a good thing because he wasn't making mistakes. That is all we need is mistake free and the rest will be bonuses.

Now to get Mack a Defensive Player of the Year, Pace GM of the year, and Nagy Coach of the Year... heck a couple All-Pros would be nice too.

I think the Bears will buy the 5th year option and not go longer only because I think they will want to make sure he can stay healthy and produce at a high level. He is finally becoming that player they envisioned, but only for these last few games as a sack producer.

I hate when the cuteness doesnt work, but have to like the aggression. You have a coach that believes in this team and that feeds a young team to feel encouraged.

Let's hope they have a bad hire or two for HC. New HC could mean new philosophies, new players etc and as we have seen it is not easy.

Defense didn't show up either. Go Pats

10 million dollar question. How do you justify that money for the display shown today. Incompetence from the start

I hope so. Gave up on him the past few weeks. He is another dimension if they can get him rolling. With Trubisky missing most likely, I'd love to see a Howard show.

And there went my fantasy season.... Jordan Howard is back in my lineup

Not sure what the cap hit would be or if any FAs would hit the market that would be an improvement. Jordan Mills? or Jake Fisher are two that will have youth and maybe upside. I know Kyle Ling would love to have Mills back next to him. There are a small handful of OTs and we know good ones don't hit FA.

I was a little worried endorsing Massie, but I do not see an upgrade stepping in next year. Keep that continuity along the line and we can draft a decent prospect in 2020. If a decent one falls to the late 3rd, then maybe get that guy a year early. Feels great seeing the blossoms starting to form into fruit.

Massie is a free agent after this season, he would be the first one I would target to bring back. I would front load the deal to give us an out after 1 year. I would not feel condident putting Cowerd in or a draftee and risking Trubisky or our marginal run game. If they want to experiment next season, start mixing that replacement player in like they did with Daniels. I would also look at keeping Callahan.

Yeah, I had 2016 stats. Still not far off, really, 2 to 3 carries. Once the weather gets more brutal he might have more, doubtful since Nagy is all pass.

Jordan is still getting the same amount of carries per game as last year. He average 15.75 last year and 14.71 this year so far. Face it, he is not the same back as he was the last two seasons. Maybe it is the blocking? In the offseason, if they can muster a 3rd rd pick for him, I would consider, only because he seems to be producing less.

Doesn't seem real. I don't like the outcome either, but get us there I like the chances of getting back better than 2006.

Did a mock. Was getting excited seeing Bryce Love RB slipping in this mock, but wasn't trading up. Round 3 Pick 25: Anderson, Rodney, RB, Oklahoma (A+) Possibly the highest rated RB but has been plagued with injuries. He can be a 3 down back. Would make a great compliment to Howard and Cohen and eventually replace Howard. Round 4 Pick 26: Dillard, Andre, OT, Washington State (A-) Looks like a good LT prospect but can play RT too. He will be a rd 2-3 prospect but getting an OT is high priority Round 5 Pick 26: Jones, Hootie, SS, Alabama (C-) Give me a C-, but Hootie doesn't allow completions, has size to match up w TEs, and can tackle. Pair him with Eddie Jackson again. Round 7 Pick 26: Adderley, Nassir, CB, Delaware (A+) Like his IQ and heart. Nichols old teammate. Plays FS but they list him at CB. Need some young talent to groom regardless. Round 7 from Phi...OLB or BPA. I know it is early to start, but been on the recliner not feeling like moving much ? So found the old first-pick.com site.

Depends on value. If Alvin Kamara is there in round 3, better believe I am taking him. Drafts are coming down to bpa with fewer team needs and Pace has shown he will pass a need like OLB this last draft. We know OT and S/CB will be high priority, but if the value is not there and you cannot trade out you take a player you like.

Looking more like Chase. Mitch didn't practice and gave no weekly presser.

I like Ryan Nall as that next RB but would not be surprised if they grab one if value is there. They cannot come into the draft with slotted needs, so i expect so upside youth signed in FA. Still think they draft: S/CB or both, OT, OLB, and RB could be a wildcard.
