i know a lot of people here like to see the bears win even if it doesn't matter, but a win here could affect our draft selection by three spots. A loss and we could pick 3rd. So far, this draft has 2 clear cut top picks that teams may want to trade up for. It's also looking like it has 1 QB that will go in the top three. This could be the pick to have that offers a lot of flexibility. I find it a lot less likely that anyone will want to trade up to 6 for a player. I understand good FOs get good players late, but this could give Pace a leg up in the upcoming draft to maximize the talent he extracts from it.

So, is everyone on here still wanting the bears to go out and get a win?

I still have a bad taste in my mouth from Cedric Benson.

Win or lose,I don`t care......what I want to see out of this game is another Barkley slinging fiasco.......get him some more reps.
Barkley had some promise to him.its his last chance to try and impress the front office before the end of the season.........

This is basically how I feel.

3rd or 7th... whatever. Let's see Barkley sling it a bit, along with some Jordan Howard.

As AI said as well, even seeing some David Fales would not be a problem either.

I think they know what they have in Howard,not so sure about barkley tho..I think it would be nice to also see them throw barkley in non-huddle situations and amongst the two minute drill most of the game.
We need to know how well he can handle pressure situations........

Yeah... that was really bad.

I'm fine with losing, but not showing up like this is a bit embarrassing. We look horrific.

Well, this team looks terrible. I think they gave up after the packers game.

I don't even understand how bad we've been the last two weeks. Ridiculous.
Well, on the bright side we have a great shot at getting Myles Garrett or Jonathon Allen. Jonathon Allen seems to fit our system better right now and is more likely to be there when we pick. I also think the potential to trade back for extra picks is there much more than had we been picking 5th or 6th. I am very excited to see what Pace can do with this draft position.

That I'm certainly on board with. We could be one more good draft away from finally getting something going. No idea what happens at QB now... Barkley seems to have played himself out of the job next year.

Yeah, Barkely's done... While they looked bad the past few weeks. No doubt about it. We have to remember the Bears are basically playing 3rd and 4th stringers against starters. It's like it's the 4th preseason game out there.
I'm kinda encouraged that they found SOME guys to add depth- when this many 2nd, 3rd and 4th stringers are on the field together it's really tough to compete.

Well... Some news- Mike McCoy was just fired by the Chargers. Do you want him to come be the OC for Fox? Demote Loggins back to QB coach- or fire him?

Loggins needs to go. He's horrible.
