  1. I’m in with the idea of more Claypool for sure . And Harry. Still wondering how he’s lost position to ESB and Pettis. All he’s done so far is make it catches.
  2. Something tells me Josh Blackwell is a player to keep tabs on. Formerly a castoff from the Eagles earlier this year (after going undrafted). Intriguing given where he came from and having co-GM Ian Cunningham in the mix.
  3. I read elsewhere that Blasingame is out due to illness. So instead the Bears have 6 WRs today. I’m predicting big things for Harry. I’d like him to stick around for next year.
  4. Explains why they signed another QB this week. And hearing more and more like Justin will start Sunday.
  5. Flus gives a vague response to whether Leatherwood plays this weekend. But a guy who is not Coach Flus suggests a good reason to start him.
  6. And in typical Rodgers d-bag fashion. Gawd it would be so nice to beat him. Alas I don’t think it’s in the cards.
  7. The Boyle signing sorta makes sense (with his familiarity with Getsy) but the signing of Brown (a DE) with all the injuries in the defensive backfield, to include now backup Safety Cruckinshank(sp?)?? ??‍♂️
  8. Saw somewhere else that claimed both Jackson and Mooney on IR:
  9. Wife and I were just discussing this. If Simien and Justin could stand on the field together and Simien could tell Justin when to throw the call, he’d be golden. Justin just needs more time to ‘see the field’ and have things slow down for him. He also needs to trust his throws. Most of the passes Simien has thrown have been contested. For Justin, it’ll come. Remember Simien was drafted to replace Payton Manning. And has been with four other teams since before coming to Chicago.
  10. After not taking any of the blame for last weeks loss to the Pats and his general ineptitude as a QB, Jets Zach Wilson will be taking a seat this week against the Bears. Man I’m so glad we ended up with Fields.
  11. This?? And some more feedback from Fields (a Twitter string). But a summary if you’re unable to access Twitter. Says he’ll play ‘unless he’s dead’ or potentially could worsen injury. Confirms conversation he had the other day apologizing to defense and was stopped by Eddie Jackson mid-sentence.
  12. Honestly, just this morning I was thinking I’d like to see how Siemien runs the offense…for a few reasons. He’s more a pocket passer who’s been around a few years. He’s not a horrible QB but if he’s able to do anything, mostly by passing, then that could tell us a bit more on whether the offense itself will be a success (should Getsy keep his job?). Can Getsy adapt to this style of play versus how you game call for Justin? But at the end of the day I still feel Justin is our guy. The second reason I want to see Siemien play is just to give Fields a much needed rest. As I said before he more than deserves it. Putting him back in too early will do more harm than good, both physically and mentally. Edit: and to help Poles make the decision on whether Fields is the ‘leader’ he is, there’s this:
  13. “Normal” Shoulder dislocation could heal up in six weeks (without surgery). Drew Brees dislocated his throwing side shoulder and tore his labrum in 2006 (while still with the Chargers). Had surgery and was back at it six weeks later. Some would say he had a pretty good career. The silver lining is that this was Justin’s non-throwing side and from what we so far know he hasn’t torn his labrum (like Mitch did a few years back). Torn labrums are no joke. Id say just rest him the rest of the year and don’t risk further injury.
  14. Agreed. Fields has more than proven himself. At this point his playing only hurts him more than helps. Heard in a presser today that Flus is saying ‘day to day’, but noted expert doc David Chao suggests he sit for awhile. And physical therapist Mason West agrees. * Edit: with the Jets ranking in the top-10 for defense and have a spot to play for, even better idea to sit Justin this week.
