Game Thread: Bears game thread

I'm beginning to wonder if we have even one scout who is worth his salt!

Unfortunately, the scouts aren't the problem. The players aren't the problem. We have the talent. No, our problems are both consistent and originate much higher in the organization.

I'm not going to get into your guys spat on this specific play, but the only thing Norman deserves credit for is swindling this franchise into a big contract that he has never lived up to. Bravo, Norman.

It's not a spat at all, we eff with one another from time to time. There's a real bond between us believe it or not, @Sportster is one of the many Burgundy and gold brothers that I enjoy exchanging swipes with.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Norman become a one year wonder as a Panther by doing a good job against Beckham working his way up to a big contract, which we jumped on giving him way to quickly, and then became lazy? And oh by the way, he has a big mouth too about what he thinks of himself. Am I missing something here?

Norman plays 10 yards off of the ball, but so do others on the other side, how do you account for scheme?
In effect, is it Norman or is it Manusky, or possibly both? Right now, I just don't see this coaching staff allowing him to play that way nor him wanting to ...UNLESS...that's what they want!

My biggest beef with a player on this team is, unfortunately Williams followed up by Norman. Trade Williams fucking ass now!

First, it is both. Second, the TDs Norman gave up last week against Dallas had nothing to do with where he lined up pre snap. They were plain lack of discipline and execution. On one, he wasn't even close to has assignment. Had no idea where his WR was.

I agree but unfortunately for us we live in a country where if you own anything you are not required to sell it UNLESS, in this case, the NFL decides to take over the ownership of our team and forces a sale until another buyer is found. I know, that's not easy to do either.

Are you FINALLY beginning to realize this?

there is too much young talent to play like this and most everything comes down to coaching

time to fire BA and the coaching staff

 

[Breed]

This is not intended for you but it is in line with the conversation, so, how does one call the bluff on a player who has amassed over 100 million dollars thus far in his career?

With 78% of NFL players filing for bankruptcy just 5 years after retirement. You could play pretty decent odds that if a player has amassed 100 million thus far in his career. He is likely 120 mill to 150 mill in debt. Hopefully though and for his sake. Trent was smarter with his money than the average NFL player.

And to the Case Keenum Isn't the Problem Crew. He is not the solution either. Not by a damn sight. Oh, and hey Stymietee.

Sup my brother!

I believe that D. Hall said that Trent told him that he was not hurting for money, so there's that.

You get no disagreement from me on this but you already knew all of this going into the season, right?

I still say no, but others talked about this during and after the game against the Bears. Let's see how the polling goes!

No spat! Sty and I are like brothers … he pokes me in the eye, I kick him in the shin but we still hug it out in the end.

The reason Carolina did not want to pay Norman was he was a good zone CB but not a good man CB. I'd say they were right.

I'd say they got it half right.

I didn't see any doubt to begin with but we all look at things differently.

we have the players to be better

 

[tomcat1]

we have the players to be better

But not the owner, GM, and coaches to be better and it takes the entire organization to put a winning product on the field.
