Pix, thanks. I absolutely hated this when I first heard about it but have come around. It’s putting the return game back in play but with hopefully fewer injuries and penalties. Kickoffs have been boring as hell for too long.
DBDB - I’ll admit it was all hearsay and things some said here. I hope I’m 100% wrong (and so was all the stuff I heard) since it really looks like he’s a Bear in April.
He appears to be a better passer than Fields. No pressure, etc. So who knows. But we’re past that now and all we can do is move on and hope for the best!
I’m pissed off. Not only because I’m a Fields fan but mostly because this is crap. They procrastinated through the time when a much better deal was available. They’re going to have a huge problem explaining this to the Fields or Die people out there.
I’m embarrassed to have believed in Poles.
The data is skewed a bit by the fact that teams drafting in the top ten are the worst in the league.
By the way, despite that, there are still some great names on your list.
Dumb call by Campbell, plain and simple. He’s a meathead but usually it works for him so more power to him. Him team plays hard and has progressed. The momentum swung hugely when they failed on the first go for it attempt. He could have taken that three and gone back up by 14 or 17. Instead he gave them the short field and it was a close game only minutes later.
That is very well said. I haven’t ever put my finger on just this well but you nailed it. He’s fun to watch play (and frustrating at times) and just a good dude. I’d be 100% behind sticking with him if he’d ever shown the ability to drive the team for a comeback win. He’s come close but hasn’t done it to my recollection.
It’ll be a slap on the wrist from the NFL if anything happens at all. They’re sending the right signals but at the end of the day, is the NFL going to suspend a coach for taking prospects out for hamburgers or sign stealing? It didn’t happen in the NFL so he’d win in court anyway. No jurisdiction so to speak.
Harbaugh is just too fricken weird for my taste with the Bears. I do hope he’s successful but still glad they didn’t pursue him.
I’m a big Wolverines fan in addition to being an even bigger Bears fan. No way I wanted Harbaugh here. I’ll leave it at that. The OP in this thread was way over top. This front office is a clown show? I strongly disagree.
