Wish Bars would have got a start or 2 after playoff elimination. Be nice to have seen what we had with him going forward
Looking at FA edges. Robert Quinn could be an option. 11.5 sacks last year. He’s 30 but should have plenty of opportunities opposite Mack.
Don’t know why we’re worried. Kealia Ohai just got traded to the red stars. Have them trade for Julie Johnston next and then the Bears will be able to easily trade for JJ Watt and Zack Ertz for nothing cause they miss their baes.
Yeah it’s almost got to be Kafka at this point, if this offense is bottom half next year....clean the fucking house...
He’s not coming here to watch Nagy calls plays, it’s either going to work or Nagy will be gone soon. Not going to be much middle ground if Nagy doesn’t get a sacrificial lamb
We gotta stop going after guys like that who are going to be overpaid. Pace has to find undervalued guys.
What a fucking joke of a hire, I guess you can’t get anyone worth a fuck when they’re just there to hang out. Why the fuck have an OC and a QB coach if neither one does shit?Nagy better finish above .500 next year or he’s out...
Nobody was going to like this hire in the first place. Like I’ve said all along Nagy is going to live or die on his play sheet. more concerned about who we add to the roster than I am about the coaching staff
On a positive note. Say Nagy does turn the ship around we are in the playoffs and anything can happen. Especially with our defense. If Nagy can’t turn it around hello top pick in a draft class with elite QB prospects.
I think Defillipo is a pretty well regarded coach, we’ll see if it makes a difference. Read an article that they think the Bears will bring Dalton in since he’s worked with Lazor....fuck that.
Seems like twitter thinks this was a great hire. I’m still more interested in who we add. doesn’t seem like QB will be a heavy investment given the hire. Unless we are drafting someone in the 2nd
I guess Dan Sileo (radio host) is floating rumors that the Bears are one of 5 teams contacting the Bengals about the #1 pick. He’s saying that Mack is on the table, I would also assume Trubisky and 2 or 3 #1’s would also be on the table. No way Cincy deals that pick with Burrows being an Ohio guy and it would cost us a Kings ransom.
The idea of the bears testing the waters doesn’t surprise me, who wouldn’t? Cincy actually being interested would be a huge surprise though...
Pace has to know if we finish poorly and Trubisky struggles they’re all on a very hot seat. He’d be a fool not to try something huge this offseason.
Doesn’t Mack have like 50 mill in dead cap space if he’s traded or cut? Pace should be shot if that’s allowed to happen
This is absolutely bullshit on so many levels. One Mitch contract and Mack’s contract makes this an impossibility. Two we don’t have the draft capital to make this work. Our best pick is a 2.40 the amount of just picks to make this work would cripple this franchise and I doubt Cinncy would even entertain it. This is a garbage rumor
I can see Pace making calls, he has to be desperate to keep his job. That part wouldn’t be a huge shock IMO, like I said before Cincy actually being interested would surprise the shit outta me.
They give his name in the link, Dan Sileo, radio host and former NFL player I guess. I’ve never heard of him.
It’s never going to happen but Pace could do about anything this offseason and it wouldn’t surprise me.
Pace has shown to be an aggressive GM so I agree I’m sure he will be all over any avenue to improve the team. That rumor is from an uneducated idiot looking for attention and not based on any knowledge of the cap. I said this a few months back my only hope is Pace doesn’t set the franchise back by selling to many future picks and back loading to many deals. I don’t believe the team is that far away. The defense floor is top ten. Need to focus on that OL, TE and WR this offense. You need three impact players at those spots. I think you do that you can win with Mitch. Look at San Fran made the SB with a average QB
I think comparing this team to SF is a stretch, we need at least 1 more very good pass rusher to pair with Mack and Nagy is never going to emphasize the run game like Shanahan to cover up the QB’s weaknesses. In a perfect world yes we could do what SF did but we don’t have the HC with the mindset to pull it off.
We are not San Fran, not even close. Their running game is one of the best in the NFL and they're doing it without some high paid top draft pick RB. Jimmy is also better than Mitch. Their OLine is better. No matter how much we talk about it, we need a better QB. A better QB elevates the whole team. It will also allow our defense to not be on the field as much which was a major factor in why they dropped off (besides the lack of turnovers compared to last year). Nagy would either need to retool his offense around Mitch's strength, or bring in a QB better suited to run his system. Seeing how we don't have draft capital, I doubt we can do much in the draft in terms of moving up. We have Mitch at a bargain for another year, and our draft should focus on line improvements, because even if Mitch isn't our QB going forward, the next one needs better line play. Look at the Colts. Their investment in their line allowed them to survive even with a mediocre Brisett at the helm. It sucks. It sucks Mitch hasn't shown as much improvement for whatever reason it may be. He's shown flashes. But we don't need flashes. We need consistent play.
SF was a bottom 5 team going into the offseason last year. But yes we aren’t close to them lol. You guys are way to negative on this roster.
I’m saying our coach doesn’t have the same mindset to do what Shanahan has done with SF, do you disagree?
Did you watch Kyle go pass happy to close out his lead in the super bowl? I’m not a Nagy hater. I get why some don’t like him. Especially given the tradition of this franchise. And with how the offense looked this year. I’m not giving up on Nagy and I’m not ready to say he’s garbage as a play caller. Keep in mind that the Burton injury really set this offense back so much. It’s why I think getting a TE from either the draft or FA should be the top need.
Mostly used as a blocker with the Chiefs and was pretty good. Still had more receiving yards than any of our TEs.
