    Bears having a Wednesday Press Conference to announce new Stadium on Lakefront

    If this is the case, then why pursue the AH site at all? If the financials don't make sense from the get go then why even consider AH?

    Bears having a Wednesday Press Conference to announce new Stadium on Lakefront

    I think the AH site is a far less complex project than what's available in Chicago. AH is a blank slate and could be made into whatever the McCaskey Family and the Bears envision. The Chicago location, in my opinion, offers less options and will have more restrictions on what can be built there...

    Bears having a Wednesday Press Conference to announce new Stadium on Lakefront

    The last two NFL stadiums to be built are SoFi and Allegiant. Both of those facilities are sparkling jewels and offer their fanbase an incredible game day experience. The Bears' new stadium needs to be on that level or I'll consider this entire episode a complete failure. The only thing the lake...

    For fun: Wild rumor has Minnesota trading multiple 1sts for Justin Herbert

    In a division with Mahomes you aren't getting rid of Herbert for a rookie QB. Not happening.

    Is Flus on the Hot Seat?

    I agree with this completely. The only positive thing I can say about Flus is the team continued to play hard for him even after an abysmal start and idiotic in game coaching decisions. I don't even give him credit for the D coming on strong at the end of the season. In that final stretch the...

    Is Flus on the Hot Seat?

    Let's say the Bears finish 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss the playoffs. Do you think Poles would fire Flus? Normally, I'd say yes. But, I think the drafting next week of a new QB1 has bought Flus more time. It makes no sense for Poles to draft Caleb and then fire Flus at the end of this season if my...

    Six days out, what does Poles do at 9?

    I'd love to see Odunze at 9. If he's gone then Bowers is my consolation prize. Yeah we need an edge but it's time to invest heavily in offense. Either of those guys would be a great weapon for Caleb and grow and develop with.

    Titans looking to trade down?

    I think it's very possible all three top tier WR's go before 9. But, in that case, then Bears could then draft Bowers, who is almost a hybrid of a TE and a WR. He would be a great addition and a huge help in Caleb's development. If Odunze is available at 9, I prefer him over Bowers. But, Bowers...

    OT: Kraft stabbed Belichik in the back!

    That has to be one of the greatest mysteries in SB history.

    OT: Kraft stabbed Belichik in the back!

    The other is a multimillionaire and so maybe neither is losing. It's hard to feel sorry for either of those guys.

    Will you be disappointed if the Bears trade back with a great prospect on the board?

    I'm be upset. When is the next time the Bears will have a top 10 pick? If things go well with Caleb perhaps not for many, many years. Let's grab a top tier WR at 9 or Bowers or maybe OL help at 9, depending on how the draft falls. I want to surround Caleb with as much elite talent as possible to...

    OT: Kraft stabbed Belichik in the back!

    I'm not a fan of either of those guys. But, Bill was notoriously difficult to work with, especially as he experienced more and more success. Bill was an inflexible curmudgeon who wanted more and more power as the years went by. He controlled the Pats draft the final third of his career and his...

    Micah Parsons

    I've seen this movie before. We did this with Mitch. We drafted a QB and then built a great defense while the offense became an afterthought. The Mack trade was the final piece that was supposed to put us over the top. We gave up four picks in the trade and then paid him a huge extension. Mitch...

    What would you give to trade up for MHJ

    I'm not interested in trading up for MHJ. He seems like an amazing player, I'd LOVE to have him on the Bears, but the talent gap between MHJ and Odunze/Nabers is not worth whatever you have to give up to get MHJ. Poles has done a great job of stockpiling draft picks after years of Pace trading...

    It's clear to me the best option at 9 is to trade down

    I'm old enough to want nothing to do with the Bears favorite operating model; draft a QB and then build a great defense. I truly hope the Bears draft a blue chip offensive piece at 9 like Odunze or Bowers or maybe OL help. I get we need an edge. But, for once in my life, I'd love to see the...
