Eagles Interested in Howard
We talked about that this at work this morning. They have already restructured a couple of contracts and are actively hunting.

Khalil Mack NFC DPOM
The Mack trade will go down as one of the most pivotal trades the NFL has seen. His ability to make everyone better is akin to Peyton Manning going to the Broncos. Many on this site have clamored for more pass rush. See how getting the best affects the rest now? Mack has made Trubisky and Nagy better, as well, by giving them the confidence that the D can hold the line. This team may be a contender a year sooner than we all hoped. All while staying in great cap shape and having a young roster. Well done Pace! I want to throw out a side shout out to John Fox for establishing a great locker room and establishing strong base. And without him, Fangio never comes here...

Power Rankings (National Media Bandwagon hopping begins)
I'm excited about this team, but not ready to put them in the top 7 as of yet. I read on one of the rankings that 21 out of 22 of our starters can take us to the Super Bowl. It's that one key player that is young and needs to continue to develop. If he grows into a franchise QB, we are going to be in the window for a long time. Last week was a great start. Hopefully it was a coming out party!

Anthony Miller - Any news
He dislocated his shoulder twice. His doctor says he can tough it out with a brace, but surgery is inevitable. Once that happens, it's a 6 month rehab. My guess is that he's done for the season.

Moving forward: Seattle at Chicago Official Game Thread
From my coaching and playing experience, when something good happens you want to lock that in with your developing player ASAP. After a touchdown a player is on a high, at that time everything positive from a coach is remembered as such and retain forever, creating trust and confidence. The sooner true trust and confidence is instilled, the sooner you see instinctive plays. When you get those instinctive plays the defense has to counter on a "bell curve" making the offense exponentially more effective.

Upon Further Review
Thoughts on Trubisky, since we all seem to agree on the rest. When running scripted plays, he looks very good. What does this say? It says, when prepared, he shows the confidence and decision making ability to be very successful. Two opening TD drives in two games tells a good tale. Looking forward, when this offense becomes more instinctive to him, the 2nd half will also look better. Patience folks, my eye test likes what it sees. We should be 2-0 right now and no-one expected that. We should dominate Arizona on Sunday.

How do Bears Measure Up?
Nobody said that. They said, could have. I truly believe if he saw it develop, he would have attempted the throw. Unfortunately, he saw it too late. IMO, hindsight should have told him to tuck and run for the first down.

Roquan Smith Must Start
Wilson was running for his life Sunday. If that's the case, I want Roquan in there.

Packers Post Game Thoughts
That was a hard game to swallow.for the 2nd half to turn out like it did, I'm a little concerned about Nagy. We are up 17-0 at half and get the ball to start the 3rd and have no creativity in the book. You would think there would be some ancillary plays off of some of those exotic looks. Nah. Play action, rollouts, RPO? Nah. The center of the field was open all night, but almost everything was outside. God forbid if Trubisky throws something deep. Lastly, Howard should have had 6-8 more carries. If he gets those, we win We let them off with a cheap win and I hate it. This was on Nagy. In his last two games that count.(last year in KC) He shit the bed. Hope he learns fast.

Goldman Extended 4 years
My guess is that his guaranteed money comes in the first two years making this deal palatable in year 3 and 4.
