If Sexy could have had a full year with Forte, I think you would see a Superbowl champion, because I see no reason why them playing together would stop you from watching the Superbowl later.

Guy just runs to the outside and hopes his team does it all for him, just like in this clip.

ND is horrible.
Fucking asterisk needed. Forte is a beast in the passing game but not between the tackles. Why don't you address the actual subject ever? You always go after posters with semantic or fact checking minutia bullshit nitpicking. Always derail conversations so you can show of your OSU debate club skills. Get a life!

You sound mad bro....you mad?

Grimson is an absolute idiot. So Forte is "afraid" to run off tackle? Forget the fact that when there is no hole, then he will bounce it to the outside but being "afraid" to run off tackle which he has done a thousand times in his lifetime. It is a stupid insult by a know it none.

MAtt Forte is a great receiver. Record setting year last year.

But he isn't even the best receiving RB the Bears have had....

Walter is LOL'ing you from the grave


Who cares? Payton was a God. Forte is not. Big Freeking deal. Forte has been a premium back throughout his NFL career. One of the top three backs EVER in Bears history. HOFer? No. But one of the Bears all time greats, hell yeah.

Keep it up, bozo. Or you will be banned and subject to other punishment.

Stay on topic and stop being a teenager.

That's not what the thread was even about. Do you just point at the screen and yell before you actually read what you're responding to?

Forte is the best receiving RB in NFL history, the record books prove that.

1) No he isn't.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_Faulk

2) No they don't.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_Faulk (Scroll down to receiving stats)

3) He has never excelled at running inside, so what's the point of decrying that reality it in his perhaps last yr as a Bear. Lot's of backs are bad in passing downs in one facet or another and therefore necessitate another roster spot, pick your poison.
He's not even top 5. I don't even know if he's top ten.
