Yet a trade for Alex Mack was obviously off the table......

Alex Bars, has never played Center in college or the Pros......

We went from 3 Centers (Daniels, Whitehair and Mustipher) down to possibly none this week...... I guess no GM could possibly anticipate that much carnage.

However, Pace and the team had an indication that it was a possible issue, yet they have done nothing.

Massie was not playing well before his injury, place him on IR, and go pick up a center off the street

Off the Street, a center like Grasu, we drafted him and gave him every chance to excel, if I remember correctly he could snap the ball just fine, gave great effort, but just was weak at the point of attack. 2 out of 3 is better than having bad snaps all night long. Remember how bad Whitehair was at snapping the ball, and how disruptive it was to the timing of the play?

Just sitting on their fuckin hands and having the most athletic guy left on the roster snap the ball and call out adjustments, smart....hide behind the chainsaws smart...

Yeah, I guess that is what I get for using Walter Football as a reference for who is available ?

Perhaps the Bears can fill in the O line with all TE's. That could be fun. Just run outside make those poor D. lineman run left, then run right, then left, then right.

He's been very good for them. We gave up way too early on him, he just needed to spend a couple years bulking up.

Sam Mustapha has officially been ruled out...I think they should put in Dieter Eiselen out at Center. Really want him to get a chance, but understand the two 7th rounders are lined up in front of him for snaps

So...definitely out for Sunday

Mustipher
Whitehair
Massie (ir)
Wims (suspended)
Trubisky
Jenkins
RRH

Kmet looks doubtful

Hero boy Bray will be backup
Ridley should be active
No fking clue who the three backup ol are as I believe you must suit up 8 on gameday
They'd be morons to NOT have another rb active as I could see a run heavy game plan + with the amount of injuries they should be able to activate a miller/Pierce and get them some work

I will go out on a limb and say this dude will be a stud for years to come. He’a got the attitude and the strength!!!!

Sometimes I just don’t get the personnel decisions from the pros that work in the industry!

is it possible that ifedi could play tackle this weekend
