Sure I get that and understand the concerns about next year’s money. I’m just not quite ready to give up on this year. Especially since our team is still 5-4 and just went through one of the roughest patches of it’s schedule. Will they make changes this year to adjust the offense? Enough for it to win or at least stay in the game? I’m hoping so.

This^^. It’s not too late...other than Trubisky being injured. They’re still 5-4 with an ‘easier’ schedule ahead.

So you’re suggesting a rebuild? Right after posting how well the defense did against a pretty decent team in Tennessee? And despite three straight losses are still 5-4? Yes I get the offense is a mess but not all of that is the construction of the team. The o-line has been beat up by injuries and more recently COVID (which caused some issues this week). Maybe if they instead can Nagy now, start playing a more balanced offense and get players in positions to succeed there may be a chance to salvage what’s left of this season. Yes I’d even go as far as put Trubisky back in when he’s healthy and hell I’d even be willing to see what Bray can do at this point. I don’t see the season as a total loss...yet. I’d still like to know where the hell L. Miller is. For what it’s worth Nall looked good in spot play; yes it was garbage time but it mixed things up a bit and looked more productive with him in.

So...this is interesting (below). Now Bray might be unavailable due to COVID protocol. Foles may be all they have for Sunday...with most of the starting Oline out. If Foles gets hurt I read elsewhere that ODonnel and Montgomery are the next in line. Montgomery allegedly played QB in HS. The offense is going to get slaughtered. *edit: Another person on Twitter suggested that since they’ll be in Tennessee they could look to see what Cutler is up to. Allegedly he still spends a lot of time there. https://www.bleachernation.com/bears/2020/11/05/tyler-brays-availability-for-sunday-is-in-question-because-of-the-bears-covid-19-situation/

Not sure whether this belongs here but here it is. I saw a story where Nagy was asked about what he thought Brays ability would be as a back up. His answer was pretty much, ‘he better be ready’ (or something like that). I thought maybe a trade was in the works... then I saw this (below) Turns out Trubiksy was injured during the one play he was in for last week. https://chicago.suntimes.com/bears/2020/11/4/21550267/bears-mitch-trubiksy-shoulder-injury

He doesn’t quite check all the Bill Parcell’s’ boxes but is a solid QB, or at least can be. Cowherd was saying SF should make a play for him as Jimmy G (by his estimate) is done in SF. And that Belichick would live to have Jimmy back in NE. What do we have to offer if it turns into a bidding war? Any way to unload Trubisky in the deal?

And to make matters worse, Ifedi and Spriggs are now on the COVID list. Massie (and Daniels) are on IR. Whitehair is out and it’s looks as though Mustipher may miss this weekend. But hey...Leno and Coward are still good to go. OY VEY!!! https://www.bleachernation.com/bears/2020/11/03/another-injured-offensive-lineman-center-sam-mustipher-might-miss-sundays-game-too/

I know this was brought up a few times last year but I’d be totally fine with Pagano taking over the HC job at this point. Usually the defensive minded coaches are more conservative (yes boring) but are consistent with their play calling. Maybe look for a bruiser back like Howard to complement Montgomery and we could actually focus more on a balanced attack. As much as it pains me to say this I’d also be ok with putting Trubiksy back in. Foles’ mistakes are not really any different than Mitch but he has less of an excuse to me making them. Add that Pagano’s got experience in the drivers seat and I’d be ok with that to finish out the year.

Depending on how things go today I really believe the Bears can give GB a run for their money. GB is really 1.5 dimensional (I’ve added their running game at half value). You disrupt AR in any way shape or form, you can beat them. Goff is having it happen to him in Miami. Wish the Bears could’ve figured that out.
