  1. I agree that we should temper the new coach talk until we see how this team comes out against the packers after the break, This team is 3-5 after playing 3 consecutive road games and went 2-1 in those 3 and should have gone 3 and 0 with a little more discipline and luck in the Atlanta game and Minnesota game this would be a 2 loss team. I will go to my grave thinking Miller made that catch and Fuller wasn't the only guy lined up offsides on the field goal.
  2. Not good and we got a guy still standing!
  3. If it was said to Dan Hampton why isn't he tweeting it? Just looking at the way the defense played and factoring in the injuries and mistakes on offense and officiating and that is absolute B.S.! Since Hampton comes on the Final Word with Lou Cannelis on FOX 32, what Saints player was he talking with while hear in Chicago?
  4. Mort reporting that Miller is under going an MRI post surgically to see the structure and status of his leg!
  5. Agreed and to put it in perspective Teddy Bridgewater had the same injury without nerve damage and he is just now getting back on the practice field on a limited basis.
  6. The bye week should be an endless line of guys in trying out. At this point someone who can make a 48 yard indoors should be the focus. last season 18 of 23 and so far this year 7 of 11.
  7. The play of the secondary can't be over looked also. The tackling of Fuller, Jackson and Amos, plus the forcing of turnovers are an end result of the front 7 play. Right now the weak link seems to be Amukamara who is repeatedly targeted by the opponents. I'm wondering what Cooper's status is. I thought I saw him on the sideline in uniform.
  8. That was one of the worst leg injuries I have seen and ranks right up there with Tim Krumrie in the Super Bowl and Joe Theismann on the Monday Night game against the Giants.
  9. We'll see what he can do after the bye week.
  10. I hear he also had sports hernia surgery that he was recovering from also so this is a wait and see for me!
  11. Okay everyone I'm going to give you two names. John Shoop and Ron Turner. Then the stats that were brought up during the game saying that the last 2 QBs that attempted this few amount of passes and win games were both coached by Fox(Tebow and Weinke). Both of the OCs I named were basically ground and pound and this is what we are seeing now with Loggins.
  12. I've been watching Bears football since '66 ! How long you been watching? Don't you ever question how much I have vested in this team!
  13. Yes I can because this is the defensive play we have been waiting for! And you are worried about what could go wrong. Turn off your set!
  14. What game are you watching? You are really pessimistic!
  15. What game are you watching? You are really pessimistic!
  16. Is it me or is DL trying to buck trends on pass plays?
  17. There was times during training camp Whitehair was at guard while Long was recovering from injury and that in itself may have something to do with his inconsistency.
  18. Today 4 members of the secondary had a coming out party Fuller, Amos, Jackson and Callahan. The fact that 3 of the four were drafted by the Bears and the for came as an undrafted FA makes me think Donatell is doing some coaching also Amos looks physically different.
  19. Everyone the starting WRs were McBride and Gentry! Both making their first NFL starts. How much acclimated to the play book could they have been?I agree that these are Glennon plays but it seems they spent the entire game trying to buck tendencies, especially with Cohen on the field.
  20. I'm really mum on what has transpired so far on the field but, seeing similarities to when in 1982 Jim McMahon was inserted into the lineup during the strike shortened season. When we saw McMahon clearly we knew that he new what he was doing. I saw the same thing in Biscuit. Pre-snap penalties by both OTs and questionable holding penalties on long gaining plays by the offense turned this into a close game when it was clear Sam Bradford was willing to gift wrap the game for the Bears in the first quarter because he clearly was remembering the fact that he replaced the starter under similar circumstances last year and rushed his return.IMO there should be someone on this roster that can be converted to a OL and I'm thinking one candidate is Shaheen. He has the frame, size and athleticism to be a Lane Johnson type at the position. This franchise went from trying to convert players from defenders to offense and vice-versa for years and now there has been an enormous push for position versatility. I recently kept asking for the Bears to try and convert Jeremy Langford to WR because of his ball skills size and history as a quick study at MSU. This worked back when the team was good with guys like Fencik, Moorehead Bortz, Big Cat and Azumah. I pick one player a year that I think could make a change and I think Shaheen is the one this year. If this switch was made and we get a starter quality OT in round 2 the draft looks a whole lot different.

    My mindset was to stay at 3 and draft the best available player that you can plug and play from day 1. Trading up one slot and then declaring the pick basically a redshirt still baffles me. I still don't believe that the Browns would have drafted number 1 overall and then trade up to number 2 pick to get Trubisky.The Browns did what they were going to do unless Trubisky would have dropped to later in the first round. Again as everyone has said my previous thoughts don't matter because the most anticipated debut of a player in a Bears' uniform since Jim McMahon is happening Monday Night and I'll be watching every play and requested the next day off strategically based on the schedule and not thinking Trubisky would be starting. Maybe I should play Powerball.lol
