No.1 concern heading in to next year.

[noonthirtyjoe]

What is yours. Just your No.1. I know we have many. Me? Pass rusher. That's my No. 1

1a.Lock up our offensive line and Jay.
1b. Defensive backfield

Chris Conte and Major Wright should not be our starting safeties next year. The D-Line needs to improve as well. There are several good depth pieces, but only two guys who should be starters (Peppers, should he return, and Melton). Filling those four holes would do wonders for this team. If TJ goes elsewhere, we need another cornerback as well.

I can't believe i'm saying it, but I have no concerns for the offense. The worst case scenario is we franchise Jay.

 

[leomaz]

The only co cerns I have for the offense is center and depth. Weird saying that about our offense. I hope they can resign Slauson and keep this line playing together. Continuity is the key here and it can't be understated enough.

My number one concern? Will the Bears win more than 5 games.

 

[leomaz]

Yes the Bears will win more then 5 games next year. Guaranteed.

 

[wood20ks]

defense................plain and simple.

Guaranteed?

 

[leomaz]

put up or shut up.

Guaranteed?

I guaran damn tee it. Would you like to make a wager?

 

[nebearsfan70]

No wager. I just don't see them winning more than 8, with a possibility of dumping 2 or 3 more games. This of course is based upon no changes in personnel from this season.

There needs to be an upgrade from Bostic at MLB next year. Whether that's bringing back DJ Williams, drafting a MLB, or bringing in a FA... whatever. Bostic has ability, but he is just not cut out to be an NFL MLB.

Re-sign Cutler. Other than that, I love the offense going forward.

Need a pass rusher.

Need a safety upgrade.

Need a CB, seeing that both Tillman and Jennings could be leaving.

 

[blh7068]

1. Re sign Cutler. 2. Every position on defense needs fortifying. Since it starts up front...Ill go with a DE.

 

[anotheridiot]

Defensive coordinator

Its inexcusable that the players dont know what scheme is being played in a blitz scenario, cant have half the secondary playing zone and half playing man.

 

[dirtboy068]

D back field.


close 2nd. QB

this will interesting to see how this plays out. I truly feel it could go either way ( as to keep jay or let him go).

 

[55briggs]

a tackler period, for the run game. if not bring in a NT that they have to reroute their runs around forcing runners to the edge, Need a true MLB, and CB. at this point we would like alot of different CBs, Nat Vasher is better than this crew.

 

[Baseballnut77]

safety and a top dt are my priorities. Tucker will have the freedom to install his own d this year and from what i know about him it will be an attacking one

 

[Baseballnut77]

we dont have enough money/picks to fix everything on d but if we can at least stuff the run and have good safeties we should be ok

 

[anotheridiot]

So he did not have freedom here or in Jacksonville last year? Both were the worst defenses in the league.

Melton Ratliff Paea. I don't see dt as a huge need. Tucker needs to go. I get he was not running his own system but he could not game plan at all, plain and simple. Emory or Trestman ? Who brought Tucker aboard?

Yes and yes.
