I am not crazy for thinking that Iggy hasn’t been good in the preseason?

A couple of guys on Twitter are trying to convince me that he is there best backup LB in coverage.

The fact that he's still playing with 5 minutes left in the game can't be a good sign for him.

I’m hoping Tyler Bray is QB2 and Daniel gets cut.

Thinking Horsted #47 showed enough to make the team.

Tough decisions to make at RB4 but I really like Nall.

He is the best backup in coverage, but that's not saying much. And he hasn't been good (didn't see last night's game). If Trevathan or Smith go down, the Bears would probably be pretty predictable if Kwit is in (he needs to blitz on pass downs).

I think he makes the team over Woods, but I would personally take Woods if I was the guy making the decisions.

Brad Biggs on the score this morning, said he asked Lucas if he thought it was a good thing that he did not play in the game. He said there was like an 11 second pause with this 6'8 beast staring down at him that was extremely uncomfortable. Funny stuff.

That Thurman linebacker (whatever his name is good ol 53) has been very noticable on the field. I would think he and Nall deserve some special teams time. They might just keep the 3 running backs though. I really dont like when any starters are running around on special teams.

He played really well, I think he showed enough to at least make the practice squad. The Bears will probably keep 4 tight ends and I think Sowell will be the fourth man. I could be wrong and would be happy to be so but it seems the coaches like Sowell's potential as a blocking TE. Personally I would replace Shaheen and all his 'potential' with Horsted. It ain't gonna happen but one can dream.

Horsted looks like he could effectively play the U spot with his athletic ability. Not having an actual backup to Burton hurt the Bears last season

No way. Nagy was VERY quick yesterday to talk about his blocking needing work.

Practice squad seems possible though.

Not only that but the Chiefs had no answer for an injured Kelce when Nagy was there, it seems like a position that haunts Nagy.

I assume Ives, Bunting, and Horstead are going to the PS

While you aren't necessarily off base and I don't really disagree, these next couple days may be very disappointing for you.

I still think Iggy has more to offer than Fitts does. In what two years (?) I can't recall more than a handle of times I even *noticed* him on the field. A few special teams tackles, but mostly weak pass-rushing. Too bad, I liked his calm demeanor.

That was something Nagy explained, he learned a valuable lesson of when he was named HC. hopefully a few good TE's fall through the next wave of cuts. allot of players will be available after this week.

Seems Fitts fell off the radar a bit. few other guys look to have more steam or want when they are on the field. maybe fitts needs a few xtra pounds, or a lil more speed,who knows.
