    Contracts vs State taxes

    After seeing that Poles offered and lost out on a "similar deal" to Gabe Davis... Is there anything regarding cap offsets or considerations to allow teams to offer apples to apples contracts to players regarding the differences in state taxes vs. players' actual take home pay?? Seems unfair...

    "QB Reset" is NOT a cap $ advantage w/ value of #1 overall

    *disclaimer* Obviously, pick the best QB, period. But why do so many keep touting that "resetting the QB clock" as some sort of financial advantage??? It's NOT if #1 overall is (and should be) worth a trade to lower '24 1st Rd pick + 2 more in coming years '25 & '26. Think overall cap...

    Too Early: Benefits of Keep Fields $$ vs Caleb "reset $$"

    RE cap hit & trading #1 down: Netting 3 first rounders > "reset QB price" drafting Caleb essentially equals 3 players x 4 years each = 12 years* of rookie pay scale savings total vs the 1 year of remaining "cheap" Fields pay + Field big $ annually after - IF they keep him beyond '24. (can...

    Another media rant about Getsy's disjointed arrogant ignorance

    She's on point and losing her shit with Getsy's idiocy. If into justifying your shared anger, worth a watch I guess: How in the hell do we end up with a second consecutive serving of Nagy-level incompetence calling the shots? 🤦‍♂️ New OC needed yesterday. Just like how obvious it was...

    Go to TB or sell my tix?

    After Sunday's disaster and moreover, the tape review to follow (see JT's review), I'm feeling very hopeless for our Bears to be competitive at all now. It really sucks as I was looking forward to this season quite a bit. Raymond James is a really nice stadium and Bucs fans are all pretty...

    2022 Week 7 MNF - Manning Edition Recap

    I for one, like the Mannings' take on the games. They seemed to be pretty impressed with Getsy's play calling, as this was the first game IIRC, that they really started adjusting the game plan to get Fields moving out of the pocket and playing to his strengths with more designed runs. RBs &...

    Tyler Scott Interview - Under Center Podcast

    Dude sounds more established and knowledgeable than a rookie to me.

    No Center? Available Options or is Cody really the plan?

    Do they like Deiter, Leatherwood, & Cody as their best options? What's wrong with Whypler? 6.20 NFL grade looks tasty enough for their last 5th Rd. pick or trade up, but no? Still on board in 6th as of this post. I could see the advantage of having a Vet at Center this season who knows what...

    D.J. Moore vs Stephon Diggs - first 5 years stats (FTO)

    I read about this but couldn't find the stats. A few mins in Excel later... Seems they're pretty damn close when you look at the averages per game, per reception, etc. This despite the situation & QB support being far worse in CAR. Things dipped for D.J. as McCaffery departed and their O...

    AZ draft position?

    Is Arizona also in the market to trade down? With all the BS about shopping Fields, it seems to me AZ would be MUCH more likely to move on from Murray and his video game priority attitude than CHI dumping Fields' upside for an unknown "reset". That said, Murray is somewhat proven in the...

    Of all the QB needy teams...

    Which can afford to wait til next draft? We keep reading the same about "5 or more in the top 10" or whatever, but rather than give up their "haul", (including future 1sts) now; ...How many GMs & coaches have the job security to punt on this season and take another position at value, while...

    Useful players putting their teams in cap hell?

    Who might be worth overpaying to help another team meet their cap and gaining a pick in return? This happens sometimes and Bears MUST, repeat MUST spend over $120mil in the next year just to meet the minimum cap, OR they STILL have to pay the difference directly to the league (and not to a...

    Monty's Value...Trade or Keep?

    I'm reading many of you (& media) speculating that DMonty could be next. He's hardly worth anything now or am I wrong?, esp. at the end of his rookie contract. Cheap to keep now & next year, even if back on a 1 year prove-it deal with what we all figure to be a MUCH improved OL. Why not...

    "Block in Back" negating Fields 52 yard TD run - vid replay

    Your thoughts on the ticky tacky "block in the back" that erased Fields' brilliant 50+ yrd TD run? "Stink" even admits (and gives props for?‍♂️) "drawing a penalty"....Sure looked like the defender turned and decided to pull a textbook Lebron flop, complete with full on "wacky wavy...
