QFT

because they wanted real WRs like Keary Colbert who they traded for. If Hass didnt win the Belitnikof award, this discussion wouldnt even be taking place. Hass might be the next Wes Welker, but it is much more likely that he is the next failed great white WR out of college. It isnt as if the Bears are the only ones who gave up on him, and it isnt as if the Seahawks just told him he was going to be their number 1, or even their primary slot WR, he has an outside shot of making their team, and will probably be a practice squad guy for them too

You know, as long as the QB the bears take in the draft isnt Tebow, I think I will be happy.

Oh yes, I forgot. If we back up the truck to anyone and drop money, it works. Silly me. Apparently the bears front office is able to reschedule free agent visits for any player at any time. face it, the guy saw a situation where he was going to thrive and jumped on it. No other team in the NFL had a chance, Brees wanted to be a saint. This fantasy situation that you are somehow hanging on the bears is ridiculous

You are not understanding. Brees went to New Orleans and signed on the dotted line, right there. Sean Payton and the NO staff blew him away and that was it. The red carpet wasnt going to stretch to New Orleans

jebus christmas, quit being a drama mama everytime somethign like this happens. Oh my god! That player will be the best evers now that the bears dont have him!!!!! OMGZZZZZ

Um, yeah. They made the playoffs. They may have lost, but they werent at home watching when the playoffs started.

The same guy who was benched, then forced back to starter because of Quinns injury, only to blow out his own knee? yuck. That list is hideous. I hate to say it, but Orton is a much better fit than any of those guys at this point

Yeah, this is definitely not the year you want to evaluate those wide recievers, Seneca Wallace is no Matt Hasselbeck

I think one of his huge problems with the Rams(at the end) and the Giants was that his hand was broken, then recovering, and he wasnt quite right for a while. I know he had a few surgeries and broke it a few times, and it really affected holding onto the ball. It isnt as if he takes too much time back there

Deion Branch and Bobby Engram are much more impressive than anything on the Bears roster

Are you kidding me? The 2001 team was a MIRAGE. Since Angelo ousted Jauron and everything that Jauron did, his teams have gone 1st twice(once to the superbowl) , 2nd, and 4th place. You want to talk about what Hatley did? Lets read this quote from the article regarding his termination: Oh yeah, Mark Hatley really left the cupboard full. What happened in those two years after the 13-3 season? Oh yeah. 4-12 and 7-9. And dont talk about Kordell Stewart and Chris Chandler unless you want to bring up some gems that Hatley provided us with like Curtis Enis and Cade McNown. All Angelo did was get Briggs? Not draft Alex Brown,and Tommie Harris? he didnt trade for Ogunleye? you go ahead and discount those three players, they were only a big part of one of the best defenses in the league two and three years ago. i'll give you archuleta, but then you gotta remember the good things Manning Jr did before he got ran out of town. how about taking a flyer on that guy that 2 organizations gave up on, what was his name again..... oh yeah Thomas Jones. Oh but he was just OK getting 1000 yards every year and being one of the most complete backs the bears have had in the last 20 years. I agree the Wide reciever situation has gotten out of control, but number one WRs dont grow on trees. Me and you could sit here for days listing this player that excelled and that player that failed, but you know what? It happens with every organization. Its called parity, the NFL encourages it, and free agency and non-gauranteed contracts pretty much guarantee it. No matter what you think of Angelo and the Bears, the Organization as a whole has been on the upswing since he took over. It may have peaked in 05-06, but they still have competed and this last year showed a marked improvement over the prior team despite everyone predicting doom and gloom and practically rooting for them to fail for that glorious high first round pick. Lets face it, pretty much every team has holes to fill year in and year out, and it isnt as easy as "sign this guy" or "hire this coach" or "lets switch to the 3-4 because the cover-2 isnt working". Its balancing money, priorities, player strengths, etc. Nobody wants to give Angelo credit for the good he has done and everyone wants results now. Well tough shit, sometimes results develop, they dont just appear. And Brees never got to Chicago to talk to Angelo. he went one place, New Orleans, and signed a contract immediately.

You mean director of player personnel? He had plenty of control in who was on that team. And considering the Jauron years that he had inherited(minus the 13-3), a 62-55 record as a GM isnt too bad.

Well, then you shouldnt worry about him calling plays then, considering that he is going to be the defensive line coach, and not the defensive coordinator right, he didnt draft any of that talent. That was all Dungy and Kiffin.

holy jesus, I was wondering why everyone was double posting today. Now I know

Im not advocating the Bears going after Warner, but Alex brown abused Bob Whitfield that game, that had nothing to do with Warner. Even Michael Vick would have taken 5 sacks that game vs the Bears, the defense was uncorked in that span of games

He isnt gonna be DC(or so it seems), he will be Defensive Line Coach

Agreed, if the Bears go after Warner then they believe they have a window for the Superbowl next year, its a one shot deal and Warner is out the door.

This thread is gonna be awesome

You are assuming that the Cardinals will bring him back. They have quite an investment in Leinart that they probably need to see if is worthwhile at this point. I doubt Warner is going to want a paycut, and after this season, he is probably going to ask for a pretty penny, and can the Cardinals afford to allocate that much money in the QB position? Warner might now be with the Cardinals. That doesnt mean I think he is coming to the Bears, for the reasons you spoke of, but he is probably going to shop himself around. Who knows, maybe the Bears put their eggs in his basket and give him an offer he cannot turn down, Wide Recievers or not
