  1. Rodgers is bad and so is that Steelers offense. Houston’s defensive front is the real deal. In effect we chose Montez Sweat over Danielle Hunter…bummer.
  2. It’s not that he said it, it’s that he meant it. Now when we get a defense that can play with that attitude to pair up with this offense it’ll be glorious.
  3. You summed up what I’ve been thinking for a few weeks. Everyone wants the efficient 5yd passes, me too. Caleb is thinking I’m just gonna go get 15 or 20. The thing is that unlike our past QBs he can do it. He has the play caller for it too! Like a great home run hitter you simply don’t care if his first two swings were strikes, or incomplete, because the odds are still so high on the third attempt. At the end of the day the goal is to put points on the board not collect first downs.

  5. I hope for the best with Ozzy. One thing I learned this past weekend is Ozzy >> Will Campbell.
  6. Josh Allen is as close as they come, but if you compare Caleb's 2nd year as a pro and Allen's, Caleb is already better. We are comparing Caleb to Allen as 29yr old in his 8th season. Exactly.
  7. Nothing about the Chargers playoff performance made me think Harbaugh should have been our HC.
  8. Nacua is not fast. He’s quick but in man coverage Panther DBs were able to stick with him. He will destroy zone coverage and he has great hands for contested catches. Stafford trusts him and will throw the ball his way even when he’s covered.
  9. So far this weekend I've watched a few playoff games. I haven't seen one QB I'd prefer to have over Caleb although I'd say Josh Allen is an even swap. Drake Maye...nothing much in 3 quarters, lots of bad passes. Justin Herbert...even less production in 3 quarters although I think his supporting cast is poor. The lIttle guy on the Panthers...nope. Brock Purdy is good but doesn't have the same arm strength as Caleb and quite honestly that's a factor in Soldier Field weather. Matthew Stafford is a great passer, can't run, but I'm also not going to swap the ascending QB for a guy who is likely to retire. I don't know why it is but for the last 2 seasons Mahomes has not looked like the elite QB he was in his first few seasons. Hurts...without a running game he's been exposed and cannot carry a passing game. I'm fully on board and expecting Caleb and this offense to hit another gear next year with better comp% and more consistency. Or is that first elite game still waiting for us this season?
  10. Those are legit rumors or wild speculation on the internet? There'd be way more involved than the league-sourced two 3rd Rd picks, likely at least one 1st Rd pick if not more. That would in effect be Poles giving up his future draft capital for his new rebuilding job in Atlanta. He'd also be saying he made a mistake with the Williams pick and that he now thinks Penix is the better QB option. If we get anything out of Atlanta make it Bijan Robinson. Matt Ryan and whoever (Cunningham) are not giving up the one elite talent they've got on offense.
  11. Rome is back. We now have him, Loveland, Burden, Moore, and a RB to cover. In the last game the Packers brought down a safety to shutdown our running game. I don’t see how they can afford to do that without giving up some big plays. Or they keep both safeties back and we run.
  12. I think they took away the creative stuff he was doing in an effort to be more predictable for coverage. If that’s all you want you don’t need to waste a draft pick on it. What happened to the funky kick with the backspin?
  13. Making plays yes but the point about him doing something special. Nah we haven’t seen that. This is Chicago we know what a great LB looks like on the field.
  14. True. Coaching finding a way to make lemonade out of lemons. Even against Detroit so he gave up was 19pts. That's a very winnable game
  15. Any team that wants Pickens attitude and a 30mil cap hit deserves him. It’s gonna be a desperate GM to make that decision. When you can get DJ cheaper with less headaches in the locker room you should do that. The Bears have already paid his bonus so the receiving team in the deal should have a much better contract and not the 28 mil cap hit the Bears carry.

    Every time I try to post this video my computer locks up. After switching to a new VPN service which has unlocked YouTube for me here is one more effort via phone it is interesting with DG bears WR coaching experience to hear the differences in the film breakdown versus our usual QB views. He thinks Burden will be our WR1 next year over Rome.

    Trevon Diggs Cut

    They know our secondary has been depleted and they liked picking on CJGJ in the last game. I can’t help but think keeping him off the Bears was part of the calculation.

    Trevon Diggs Cut

    I figured some playoff team would add him on a cheap deal not on his current contract. I imagine there is still a cheap cut with minimal cap hit after this season but I just haven’t seen this scenario before.

    Trevon Diggs Cut

    He was getting cut anyway Jerry just wanted to send a message doing it a week early. Cowboys as usual are a mess. I don’t know that we should get involved with Diggs but I’m certain that Al Harris has already made some phone calls to figure out what’s going on. i hope Jerry gives George Pickens a big contract extension because I’m enjoying the show.
  20. I lived in Texas and watched a lot of Aikmans first season in the NFL. He was nothing close to Caleb in his first season. Both had bad teams around them and bad coaches. Aikman threw 18 INTs. Now that I went and looked it up his career completion % was just 61%.

    Trevon Diggs Cut

    Hard to say where this fits in with it: "Diggs has dealt with injuries in 2025, limiting him to only eight games. When he’s been on the field, his performance hasn’t resembled his All-Pro showing from earlier in his career. Still, if a team wants some extra CB depth ahead of the postseason, there won’t be higher-upside options than the 27-year-old".

    Top 4 Receivers

    Yes I agree but I’d say that good teams are the ones that already a good replacement on the roster when they make that decision.
  23. Obvious connection to Al Harris and if I don't have to see McCloud on the field in the playoffs I'd consider that a blessing. He'd be a coverage upgrade over Stevenson too. He's not likely going anywhere for a single game so does he want to play with a playoff team? Can he play in the slot because CJGJ can't cover anyone? https://www.profootballrumors.com/2025/12/more-on-cowboys-decision-to-cut-trevon-diggs
  24. Thuney had his choice of destinations and requested to play for Ben Johnson. There is no way I can see Poles disrespecting the future HoF player by casting him off after one very successful season. That would send a really bad message to other good veteran FAs around the league, many of whom choose to chase a ring late in their career.
