D.J. Williams on the bubble?
No way. He's got a cheap contract and can play all 3 LB positions. Completely agree with Dawhizz!

How far has J'Webb fallen?
This also might be the coaching staff just sending a message to Webb. Figuring he needs a swift kick in the butt. We shall see.

Webb to 2nd string
For those of you who were concerned there wasn't going to be a competition. Webb was demoted after his poor performance in training camp and the preseason opener. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...0,2978879.story

Cutler's interceptions in training camp
Wilson has some tools.

We'll see Carimi kick butt at RT somewhere else, LOL.

Is this a sign of things to come?
I was probably most impressed with one thing from this game...Cutler manning up and saying he should have put the ball on the back shoulder (on the pick to Jeffrey). For all of Cutler's pro's, his biggest inability in my opinion has been his overall leadership qualities and the fact that historically it is everyone but his own fault. Maybe I'm crazy but I felt like in the post-game this was one of the first times he's taken full responsibility for his actions. I also heard an interview from Forte on NFL network earlier this week where he commented that Cutler is a lot more mature this training camp (said it must be the fact that he's married and had a kid). A more mature Cutler would be the best thing to happen to this franchise. He still has all of that skill and plenty of time to win a superbowl or two (or three!). All things considered no major injuries and some of our young players stepped up.

Offensive guru, eh?
Just let them be healthy. I won't even make any judgement until the 3rd preseason game and even then, knowing this is a brand new system, those judgements will be minimal. I will say this...if we stink (like win 4 games bad)...I want both Emery and Trestman fired.

Melton Out with Concussion
Melton concussed in the game. Patrick Mannelly knocked out of the game as well.
-
Kelvin Hayden Out of the Year
Bowman is a perfectly competent nickle back, imo. The problem is, if one of Tillman/Jennings go down, Frey is the other starting corner so we will be hurting (unless he steps up and shows he can start...which would be sweet).
-
Kelvin Hayden Out of the Year
Another thing that would be huge would be Hardin developing. I haven't heard hide nor hare about him which probably means he isn't playing all that great.
-
Earl Bennett misses practice with concussion
They have officially ruled him out and indicated it was a concussion. My guess is he misses at least a week, if not two, but he should still play in a couple preseason games and be ready for the opener.
-
Cutler's interceptions in training camp
Echo your sentiments. Plus its training camp...a lot of picks get thrown by all QB's.
-
Kelvin Hayden Out of the Year
Reportedly needs surgery on his hamstring. Given our lack of depth at the CB position, this is a big blow. On the bright side, Frey apparently has been having a great training camp. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...,0,324278.story

Bushrod is back in practice! :)
Awesome.
-
DJ Williams carted off...
Hopefully DJ is okay. Even if Bostic steps up and takes the starting job (which would be great if he earns it), DJ is fully capable of playing on the outside and provides the Bears with a lot of depth.
-
Packers RB Eddie Lacy
Wow...if Lacy doesn't pan out thats great for the Bears because the Packers with a running attack are one scary offense.
-
Went to camp today...
Great stuff Brian!
-
RT competition
This staff has no allegiance to Webb. If Webb doesn't earn the job, he won't play. And I'm not about to complain after a few days of training camp. My main concern is a healthy camp and the offense coming together.

Ellis retires
Idonjie would sure look good right now. But the high character guy went to the Lions for barely any more then what we offered Ellis.
-
Emery says no contract extensions during 2013 season
I'm also irritated at how stupid we were with Idonjie. We are pretty thin on the line and Israel is a good type of guy to have from a depth perspective. Now we are stuck hoping that everyone stays healthy and that Paea and Shea take big steps forward. Our line is thin.
-
Emery says no contract extensions during 2013 season
I don't like it. I still don't know if I like Emery. This year will say a lot and i'm curious how his draft picks progress.

Assinine speculation #308
I'd love it.
-
Aromashodu is back...
I always liked him for whatever reason.
-
Carimi traded to Bucs for draft pick
Didn't he play almost every game in college? Either way this is just sickening.
-
Bears minicamps this (and next) weekend
Excellent to hear!
