All the pundits are complaining about this sh** show that is moving the team. When the team goes to Indiana, they will still follow the Bears and 95% of the fans will still be fans. The City of Chicago cant afford to keep the Bears, the State of Illinois cant afford to help the Bears. Indiana is in good financial space and can afford to invest in the Bears. McCaskey bought the Racetrack and then found out that instead of a fair tax base, Racetrack was paying 3 mil a year, they told them they would be paying between 100-200 mil a year. They hired Warren and he tried to negotiate with AH and state to get a fair assessment. When that didnt happen he tried to leverage other cities to get what he wanted. Enter Indiana. Nothing has changed , the state or Chicago cant afford the money because they are bankrupt,. Indiana is in good a financial state. It doesnt take a brain surgeon to figure how this will play out.

Isnt Zah Taylor related to our OC? Brothers?

It appears Cleve wanted a price controlled pass rush asset . Verse 2.1 mil, Sweat 25 mil. They made this trade because they didnt want to lose Garrett but to help there cap situation. We never had a chance to be in the mix.

As AZ stated this next off season will be the reset with more flexibility next year. As much I think this will be a successful year, next year should be the run to the SB. It would be nice if we surprising get farther this year. I wonder how many of these big player trades actually get their team to the SB? So far it didnt work out for GB and Khali Mack didnt get us very far. The Rams almost made it their last year so it makes more sense for a team like that than most teams. I very interested in seeing if the Rams make it to the SB.

Jared Verse + first round pick+ other considerations. ( reported by Rapoport)

My dad was from a town in Wisconsin that had a paper mill and the smell was gross. Going back these days, its 1000 times better. Tons of properties in the state were poluted from industries and they always clean it up. IF in Indiana, its not going to be a problem.

With all this talk about taxpayer cost, they fail to mention the money the Bears will make for the state. No property tax collected being in Indiana. The sale taxes, and other fees the state will collect being in AH. The amount of jobs they will produce for the state. Indiana is in a better fiscal position to do the Bears stadium but know how much income the state will bring in from the Bears. The govt still owes 500 mil on the refurbish from years ago of which the Bears paid off their debt. One of the worst run states in the union as a governing body. Personally Im a Bears fan wherever they end up granting AH would be better for me being in the Rockford area. Now they can just start the stadium in Hammond and we can end this political speak.

They bought the land in AH and then found out they were going to jack the property taxes to an outrageous price. Then Warren comes in to save the day so he checked back with the city and no one was cooperating. Then enter Indiana, a well run state. Here's where we are and it looks like a total sh** show. A poorly run state is never going to give them what they need. HELLO INDIANA

The deadline is approaching and It doesnt look like the great state of Illinois cares about the Bears as much as the wonderful Governor. The Chicago Dems arent supporting the down state Dems because they think if they blow it off, the Bears will come crawling back to Chicago. I think they crawl to Indiana.

Being retired and having a lot of time on my hands I look at everything Bears at least once to see if it has value and it is repetitive. I have several I like and tune the other stuff out. Because of our past of losing regularly, I dont think we trust what is about to happen. We analyze the team and see weaknesses and yes, a lot of questions. The defense was bad last year mainly because of injuries. I think the second year in DA's system will look a lot better with some new players but improvement by people already here. BJ is a maniac and is building this team in his image. Players that love football, non stop motor, physicality and more athletic. Poles is acquiring players with those traits. Yes, he isnt perfect but no GM is . If he finds a UDFA or late round pick that becomes a starter or contributes but misses on a third rounder, its about the end result of upgrading the roster. Being an optimist, I see the maturity of Caleb and turning this into an offensive juggernaut instead of the old Bear teams of good defense and lack of offense. I trust them to fix our questions in their vision and not the pundits and fans view of the pass rush deficiency, ect. IMO we should challenge for a SB spot barring major injuries. Its not a perfect team yet but it will be good enough.

I have a tendency to look at things that normally just pop up on my social media but that never does for some reason. AZ54 has posted stuff from that source before and it does have good content. Good article

The quarterback coach said the challenge is to get Caleb out of the big play mentality and do the simple throws. A lot of times last year he passed up an open player to try to go downfield. I think the working relationship between BJ and Caleb will end up with good results.

I noticed that after the details came out and never corrected it. I dont think they are done with the investigation just yet. Publicly Available Context on the Incident Dispatch/911 audio (released or leaked): Neighbors reported yelling, screaming, and “things being thrown.” One call came from inside the home (open line, possibly male/female), and a neighbor reported the resident was assaulted. An ambulance was mentioned. Police arrived but Jacobs was not initially present. waow.com

Jordan Love put on a little weight over the off season.

This popped up on my YouTube again and reminded me, we didnt just get a high end prospect but a pro bowl type of player, that everyone in the building liked.
