63 Receptions 931 yards and 7 touchdowns, That's better than any WR on our roster. You can say he's played one more game, but you have to remind yourself he didn't play a lot at the beginning of the year.

Ron Rivera attended his pro day, Our WR coach threw to him!!!, He was in our own back yard. How could we miss so badly. He was a steal in the 3rd round. I would have taken him second over KK.

And yes this is very relevant given how much we complain about WRs here. He was right there begging us to take him and we passed. Thank god the answer was on the roster......until they got cut: Gettis and AE. O and Mr. two catch Hixon.

Early morning rant over

To Gettleman, I don't know that it mattered who was sitting there with that 2nd round pick... unless his name was Jerry Rice, he wasn't going to take him over KK. Gettleman loves the trenches and felt that had to be addressed immediately, and reinforce it. So he took two big guys back to back, and look at the difference they have made.

Now, our long neglected interior line is in great shape for years to come, so this draft, if he ignores WR, then you'll have reason to complain.

You really think he would have half those stats in this offense?

Phillip Rivers throws him open with anticipation bc of Allens good route running. Cam still needs work on that part.

He is good. I was one who was put off by his injury and workout.

If anything Kenny Stills was there in the 4th, and yes he was a known product too.

I think KK gets taken over Allen still in a redraft by the Panthers...Stills over Kugbilla? Gotta be Stills.

I think Alshon would have been the better receiver for Cam...o well we all can dream I guess.

our WR are not the problem, in fact they are playing good. the reason our numbers are not high is we are spreading the ball around perfectly. That is why it become hard for the opposing defense to know what is coming. If we had him, here he would have less yard then smith olsen and lafell. those guys are doing a good job. Also our scheme is not the old chud scheme of chucking it downfeild either so with that and the almost even spread of the ball no one has great numbers.  We are getting wins we just dont have the explosive system to highlight them. Now we do need to draft a legit number 1 cause smitty is not as good as he once was. but even in this system dont expect great numbers from any new wr. untill we have the OL to let cam get more time for downfeild attacks we will continue to run the dink and dunk with heavy run game.

I would not swap Star or Short for Keenan Allen. We did not have a third rounder.   His speed was suspect, which is why he dropped on many boards.  He is benefiting from a lack of other receivers.  However, he is a steal for a third rounder.

 

Nothing against him--he is good.  But we made the commitment to solidify our defense.  We did that.  Are you suggesting that we pass on Short?  I think, in a year or 2, Short will be getting 6-8 sacks a year from the DT spot.

 

This year's draft is better at WR.  I expect a WR, CB, or OT to be our first pick.  We will bring in help at WR.  (I am not as certain as most of you that we re-sign Brandon Lafell)

      Bryce contingency plan?

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Will he keep this up? Who knows. He's had a few decent and one good game. If he keeps trending in this direction I think we go with a veteran and late round development QB if one falls we really like. If he reverts back to early season play, I wouldn't mind earlier investment in a QB because he has had a lot of time to show consistency.

      Bears fire Matt Eberfus

      Sounds a lot like the clusterfug we had last year with Reich. Poor leadership loses the team. Poor leadership will cost you your job.

      Bears fire Matt Eberfus

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      According to multiple players and staffers in the locker room, some players were asking why Eberflus didn’t call a timeout. Other players got going, too. “Guys were furious,” a staff member said. “It was an accumulation of this season.” “The locker room was ugly,” another staffer said. “There was a lot of yelling.” Said the first player: “We felt as players it’s been too many instances where we fought our way back into games to lose because of bad time management and decision-making.” Multiple sources added that the emotions were so high between the players and their head coach that Eberflus left the locker room immediately after his speech and the exchange with players. There was nothing left to say. It was a moment for this Bears team that would inevitably force chairman George McCaskey into something the franchise had never done before. By Friday morning, Eberflus was out — but not before the team decided to have him address the media over Zoom just after 9 a.m. Two hours later, he was gone. The Bears made it official by sharing statements from general manager Ryan Poles and president/CEO Kevin Warren.
