Heard Wright and Gordon were hurt today cant find much about that.

How do you know that BJ will go with a rookie changing positions over a 3 yr starter? Its just mine and your opinion. I go by what BJ said that every position was open competition and best man wins. If Jones does win the competition and I am not saying he will, BJ will play Jones. Every year there are injuries and Ozzy will get playing time. Jones has missed games the last two years. Ozzy will get to show his stuff.

Agree with all that, but in one interview BJ did mention about not having to sharing practice tape, so that is why I brought it up.

I think the play between both teams we practice with will go a long way on determining who starts. I read where the Bears dont have to share practice tape but all teams have access to the preseason games.

He will play the best player at each position, If its Jones, he wont care about whether he will be here next year. BJ doesnt have a (I drafted him bias). Its who performs better now. He has praised Ozzy, so that may give a hint on who is ahead but it will be the preseason play that dictates that.

What encourges me is BJ always played well against the Viking D. He scored 31 points in both games against that defense last year. In 2023 scored 30 points each game. 24 and 34 his first year as the OC in 2022.

Im not sure until we see preseason games they actually will hear who is the leading canadate to start at LT, they are dividing the first team reps. With Kiran hurt, Im sure it takes him out of that competition.

One of the beat writers said that the rookies were intentional listed out of starters roles to create position competion. Loveland was the only listed starter because Kmet was hurt. I seen a CHGO post that said Cole's injury was not serious and avoided a long term injury. Has anyone seen anything about that?

I dont know if its just me, but I havent seen you around for awhile, is everything ok?

I dont think that list has been updated, is there a date on it? Here is a 8/5/2025 depth chart from Ourlads. It has Jones at 1 but I dont think this changes until we get thru the preseason. With Kmet getting hurt it now lists Loveland at 1. https://www.ourlads.com/nfldepthcharts/depthchart/CHI

With Keenan Allen signing a 8.3 mil contract with the Chargers do we get a comp pick for that ? Does anyone know?

Totally understand that.

That didnt open but I think I already saw it. The best interview I ever saw Caleb give. I think it was Marquee sports that did the interview. Its called The Chicago Football Show. I went to their channel and couldnt find it. If its a different one let me know so I can watch it.

The most physical day of practice all year. On a downer note, Kmet left with an injury and he was visable upset, so it may not be minor. 4 fights broke out and Brad Briggs said this is the most physical practice he has seen since Lovie took over as coach.

Just seen where Jordan Addison just pleaed No contest to a DUI charge and is suspected he gets a 3 game suspension to start the season which makes him not available for our first game. I would have to say that helps our cause to have a win.

My two favorite ex Bears personalities are Dave and Olin. Respect their opinions. As much as its a roller coaster ride in the preseason, I think BJ will pull back and does game plans according to what Caleb's strengths are and slowly expand that as the season progresses.

I think the next few weeks where we practice with other teams will show our progression or how much we are lacking. Its a work in progress and BJ expected this at this time but he is pissed on the pre snap penalites which should be gone by now.

If you want to look smart you need to show more consistency. I bring up cap space and salaries, you say they dont matter. Early this summer you were pushing we should trade Cole Kmet because he is getting paid to much and we could use the cap space. Braxton, Edumunds, same thing. It either matters or it dont. Like I said before , all you want to do is argue . I cant wait for your 500 word essay explaining your different opinions.

I have seen some podcasts that was there and it seems it had mixed results on offense. Sounds like the OL had some problems but heard DJ Moore, Cole Kmet and Rome had a good day. It seems Kiran is injured and hasnt practice for a few days. Braxton is not up to par yet so it appears Ozzy is taking all the firsts team reps. Sweat and Dexter looked good with constant pressure on Caleb.

Let's talk about football for a change of pace, did anyone hear how the family Day practice went today? I don't see much on X about it.

It would have been simpler to just agree, it's not going to happen but that's not good enough for you, you write your little 500 word essays on why you think it's a good idea. They could do this, they could do that and then you agreed it's not going to happen. So do you make copies of your posts and then frame them and write ( I got him this time) ? You amaze me every week how smart you think you are, you just never stop.

Just shows you just like to argue, we agreed from the beginning but you just had to turn it into a sh__ show.

Enough with trying to get people to agree with you, 100 dollars will put your money where your mouth is and we can settle this the adult way. With a bet
