We're putting a lot of eggs into the Shane Waldron/Kerry Joseph basket as far as Williams is concerned. They brought in Rypien for those two guys and Bagent has earned his spot on the roster and proven that he can hold us over for a few games if Williams got injured.
Doubtful we make any more...
I mean...Can you?
Our roster is split 50/50 between FA acquisitions and draft picks at this point...The scales will be tipped a bit toward the latter in April after the draft.
I would bet dollars to donuts that most other NFL teams are not like 70%+ loaded in roster with draft picks...
The past doesn't dictate the future....unless you're a Packers fan yaddling on about 1986 or some sh*t.
And like I said before, we've never really had the shot at the #1 pick with a QB that, at least in perception, stands above the rest. The future lies ahead...but I'm pretty confident that...
This is going to hurt you because I know JF1’s ya boy. But after watching him play for the Bears for 3 years, I would bet heavily that any of the top rookie QB’s are a net plus over him…much less the top rated one.
The bar is so f*cking low at QB right now. Our QB position is improving in 2024...
That sounds like a lot of effort. Think I can convince some young person to do it for me if I say that can keep 1/2 the money from selling?
Joey Belle is my favorite.
We traded down…so no we didn’t have a #1 overall pick QB last year. This year we will.
52% of #1 pick qb’s have made the Super Bowl in their career. I’ll take those odds.
*rolls eyes*
Bears never had a 1 pick QB in that timeframe. They did snag Mitch at 2, who was duly booed in his first public introduction at a Bulls game. Fields was actually the first QB I can remember since McMahon or Erik Kramer that wasn’t a punchline in one way or another. So much so...
If he blows up then every team missed out because all kinds of teams knew he was available and chose guys like Howell and Darnold instead.
Sometimes the truth is staring you in the face.
Looked legit to me. F*cking old as hell and the last card stuck to the pack. Plus there was a stan musial puzzle piece in each one and old contest stuff on the inside of the packaging.
Yes it is...All we can hope is he hits whatever is needed this season to get us up to a 4th.
Poles is a good dude though. He treated Fields more than fair considering the situation and I think the locker room will respect that. I know this management/coaching staff is big on locker room...
Meh...Poles will get shit...but this sh*t all goes back to Pace and Nagy being given an extra year and the stupidity of all our moves at QB in desperation. We knew that duo was going to f*ck us over that offseason...but all of us fans hoped that we lucked into a special talent in Fields despite...
Stopped by a thrift store today and bought some old Donruss baseball packs that they were selling for a buck a piece for the hell of it...For you Baseball card guys: Any of these worth a damn:
Here's the White Sox ones I thought were cool (LOL Donn Pall)
