Ok, Goldman is out. Who fills in for him?

[BearFanJohn]

I think it is hilarious when people on a fake name internet fan board call professional football players "pussy". Why don't you go out and play then tough guys?

@Klotty23 is ready to suit up! Somebody has to play for the minimum wage heros at Mariano's and CVS!

Why do we call them meatballs? Meatballs are delicious these guys are just annoying and stupid.

You gotta wonder how many players are quietly calling teammates that for opting out though. It ain't none, I will tell you that.

 

[mceownr22]

They get a 150k stipendfor the year and I think his contract numbers get relegated to next year?

That's a big loss I was just wondering to myself today hmm no bears yet huh?

A fair question. But I will take any opportunity to post a meatball gif.

Goldman and Hicks together give our edge rush so much help. He's not an easy talent to replace, even if his successes go under the radar.

But health is more important than sports. Hope he stays healthy in the meantime and comes back next year ready to win!

 

[nc0gnet0]

Didn't he retire?? @nc0gnet0

As far as I know.

 

[nc0gnet0]

Should Bears hope that Mack, Roquan, Fuller, and Hicks opt out as well? Why not one up Belicheat and tank for Trevor? Sounds crazy but think of it. Instant 2021 Cap and another shot at a QB.

 

[CaliBearFan]

How does opting out affect this years cap?

can you cut them? Oh I would cut the shit Out of them! What about all the essential grocery workers, nurses, firefighters, police,

the people that fed his fat ass and those who protect his fat ass????It’s a spit in their face!
What medical issue could he possibly have that makes him high risk? Being fat, diabetes, sickle cell?

I hope this is a bit.
Or you really suck at being a human being.

 

[Rob219_CBMB]

Perfectly said! I was struggling to not call him a pussy or greedy fuck! I’m sorry but this pisses me off. I’d fucking cut every one of these Greedy pussies!

now tell us what it is that keeps bothering you?

What does greed have to do with it?

he hates pussies, fatties and has a huge jealousy problem.

Bears play nickel lime 75% of the time. So that is Hicks/RRH/Nichols rotating at DT and Mack/Quinn/Mingo rotating at DE/OLB.

So really we need a big NT for goalline and obvious running downs not the majority of the time.

 

[Brum Bear]

It's gonna be hard to replace him. Not only does he regularly occupy 2 OLinemen, but he hardly ever misses a snap.

 

[Username]

No issue with players opting out. I get it. Our defense has the makings of a Top 3 or better D. Who fills in? Bilal Nichols played NT in college. DLine of Hicks, RRH, and Nichols is still ok with me. Any idea of who we might want to bring in? Possible trade options? Who you all got?

Goldman has likely played his last down with the Bears. With the salary cap projections for 2021, his talent and skill level is not hard to find. He excels at stopping the run with an occasional pass rush. Those type of guys can be paid less than the $10million(?) that he makes

 

[Gustavus Adolphus]

Bring back Jordan Howard to play NT.

 

[nc0gnet0]

Mike Daniels

No, only idiots on forums or in groups would call them a pussy. smh

Bob Quinn Says GMs Have Pressured the NFL regarding Roster Questions

Bob Quinn says general managers currently have more questions than answers regarding signing players outside the organization.

As a result of the global pandemic, Quinn's job has become exponentially more difficult.

And he revealed earlier Wednesday that the NFL has not made his job any less challenging.

At the moment, teams cannot bring in free agents from outside the organization for a tryout.

The league has different safety protocols for players not already signed to NFL rosters.

“That’s like my biggest question, and I don’t have a great answer, honestly. As it stands right now, we can not bring a player in for a tryout. We can not bring a free-agent player in for a tryout, as it stands right now," Quinn said. "Now, the league is working on this, and they’re supposed to be letting us know how we can do that.

“We can bring somebody in for a physical, and send them to our doctor’s office offsite. But, we can’t physically see that person here or work them out. That’s going to be a challenge.”

Quinn also indicated that he and other general managers called upon the NFL to provide more answers and to provide them quickly regarding significant roster questions.


“The on-boarding process of claiming a player, trading for a player, signing a free agent during the season. All that stuff, honestly, I don’t have a lot of information on, (and) because they haven’t told us,” he said. “That’s a whole different protocol than the protocol that’s in place for the players currently on your roster. That’s a big question that I think everybody in my seat around the league is waiting for more guidance on.”
