The Bears will get a hall for that pick and we cannot even entertain trading for that pick. Had we say, traded someone for some 1st round picks we could be in the driver's seat. But muh defense needs a star. I got news for them, they still don't have a star.

The compensation was Fitterer.

To move up you first have to have a trade partner. What do you do if you cannot get someone to trade with you? You cannot go into the draft counting on trading up. I certainly hope they have a better plan than "we are trading up". There better be a plan B and C in place before the drfat starts. I'm telling you this trade up idea is a pipedream.

I'm sure they will. It still doesn't give me the warm fuzzy feeling that Fitterer has final say on the 53. After the Darnold deal I guess I'm a little gun shy. Especially with Carr out there.

I keep going back to the statement from Reich where he said that Fitterer sets the 53 players and he decides who starts. That means Fitterer is controlling the draft and FA so he is picking the qb. That worries me.

M. O. N. E. Y.

I'm hoping this season will be worth sitting through for a change. But if it goes true to norm you may want to just change channels.

Let's start with some consist almost wins and work on the actual SB titles if we get there. I too want a few SB trophies to brag about. But to get them you must be able to get there and keep getting there because brother that is the ultimate goal. Building a team to win it all 1 season is a short sighted and often chosen route by a lot of teams. But very few can carry that over to the following season. Why is that? The reality is extremely hard to do in the salary cap era. Players move on to better contracts and coaches move on the promotions elsewhere. In essence you start over. Every coach will tell you that he coaches a different team every season. There may be a lot of the same players and coaches but only this year's class has a chance to lift the trophy.

Hit fast forward on that thing until it gets to training camp. You can pause it for a second for our 1st round pick, but only for a minute.

Everybody trying to make a buck off anything. Even if its staged. There's always an angle with everything these days.

I hope that was his tv.

Their inexperience showed last night. Reid showed them why he's still one of the best coaches in the league. He took them to the woodshed in the 2nd half.

Logic would say you are right. It appears however that finding another GM or head coach willing to put his job on the line for that little experiment may be a bit difficult.

And the 2 walk in touchdowns. That was what did them in.

Didn't mean you specifically. It was in the general sense as in someone.

That's what I'm saying. Reid may be telling the truth, he could be trying to help him get a job, buts it's not. So, if true every team that interviewed him has called bullshit afterwards. So they are calling him a lair as well. I doubt his past would deter a team given how teams including our own went after Watson. If he were an asshole explain Saun Payton. Ok, I might give you that one. It doesn't make sense to me either. The only thing left is that he's not very good at anything outside of whatever Andy actually has him do. Whatever that is.

Luke doesn't strike me as the type that like to be in front of a camera.

Ah the Underwear Olympics. Where fans confirm their biases over a straight line sprint in shorts. I look forward to the prognostications.

According to Reich a qb has to be able to make 10 big time throws per game. Dumpoffs do not count. They have to be able to hit the target at every level. That should narrow the field a bit.

The Cap is a myth. It more like guidelines really. It's not my money. Kick the can. Who gives a sh!t? Did I miss any?

I would love to eavesdrop in on a conversation between Luke and Capers about defensive strategy and tendencies. Yes I'm a nerd.

This should be pinned should it not?

There's something there, but its not because he's a minority. If he's such a great OC it must be the only thing he can do. Because let's be honest, teams are desperate for quality coaches everywhere, especially head coach's. You are going to tell me with a straight face that the only reason he's not getting a job is because he's black? Nah bruh, come up with something more compelling and I'll listen.

Then explain why Reid is always reading the play chart and Bieniemy can't get another offer? Don't use his race as an excuse because I'm not buying it. He gets interviewed every year but never a second interview. If he knew his sh!t he would have been snatched up years ago.
