Great WRs make great plays and don't have them made at their expense.

I honestly have never seen a WR good or bad consistently fuck up one on one balls like ARob this season.

Started out sympathetic to him. Now he's just a whiny bitch that needs to stfu and quit bleeding all over social media. Oh and make even one contested catch this year.
When things are obviously falling apart there is the type of player that tries (even with futility) to rally the troops and right the ship. And then there are the masters of panic that accelerate the collapse and make things more unstable around them. He's shown what kind of player he is, one of the many reasons he's not going to get paid anywhere near what he thinks he deserves.
There are maybe 3 WRs in the league good enough to act the way he is and still get paid top dollar. And he ain't one of em.

We will miss him. He makes some bad ass catches thrown by shit QBs. Lol. At the same time, DBs just out-muscle him way too much.

As good as Marshall was, his stats never helped any team get to the playoffs. Ever. So who really cares?

Means nothing, sometimes you get caught up in a bad situation. There are plenty of Bear greats who never made it to the playoffs, you can start with Butkus and Sayers.
Trent Dilfer has a superbowl ring but nobody wanted him the following year and the Ravens were quick to let their superbowl winning qb walk, lol.

I think it will be best for both parties to go their separate ways. I like ARob, but he whines to Twitter too much. He deserves a better QB. I feel bad for him because he has played with shit QBs his whole career. He wants a better QB, good for him. He should go. I also don't think the Bears are going to miss all his half ass efforts. Yall are comparing him to BMarsh, but I think he's closer to Alshon as far as impact on the Bears.

Tag-and-trade him. The team could definitely use another day 2 pick in this draft.

Here is my thing with ARob. Is he an outstanding receiver? Yes, he is outstanding. and probably will have something like 1/3 of the pass yards this team gets this year.
But is he irreplaceable? Nope, he isn't so important to this team that he can't be replaced. We already have overpaid for some of our talent and if we paid the man we would be doing it again. I like the guy, he makes our team better but what we would have to lose or trade off in return isn't worth it.
There is a reason these guys bounce from team to team. Even great receivers tend to play for multiple teams. Someone will overpay for him, will be happy for a couple of years and then will try to unload him when his contract balloons.

He hasn't really bounced around the league and from everything I've read about him he's a great team mate. He wanted an extension, can't blame him. On the same hand, if he's going to be acting out like this then fuck him. He's one of my favorite receivers, so I am biased.
This is what happens when there is zero leadership and accountability. Nagy is losing his team.

It is evident that Mr. Robinson wants out of Chicago.
I don't blame him - What receiver doesn't want to play with a better quarterback than we have here.
That being the case, it does the Bears no good to have a player on the roster who clearly doesn't want to be here....This is an eerily similar situation to the one the Vikings had with Stefon Diggs. The Vikes were able to move on from Diggs, I suggest the Bears do the same with Robinson.

His yards after the catch is brutally. There have been a few times this year he had space to run and the pass led him nicely, but instead he does like a dive/jump catch and falls to the ground to avoid any physicality. I guess those are the decisions guys make in contract years

i think it's a dick move to whine like a bitch about how you could be doing so much better if only your teammates were better when you've lost TD's that D'Andre Hopkins would have absolutely come down with

Vikings traded away Diggs because he was unhappy and had no drop off because they drafted Jefferson. If only the bears could do something like that. To late to trade him now though.

He's used incorrectly. From this fan's eyes, he gets most of his best separation on slants across the middle. On those go routes down the sidelines, defenders stick to him like a second skin.
