OT: Bears & NFL Talk 79

[Kaners Bald Spot]

Wouldn't you incur dead cap by franchising and trading a player

Foles to Graham

Garbage time beasts!

Who cares?

 

[Backyard Hockey]

Garbage time stats.

Foles gonna wind up with almost 350, 2 tds and no picks.

stat sheet hero!

I said that missed 4 and and 1 and the missed pick 6 in the first would hurt. They did!

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

That was a pathetic attempt of onside kick

WTF is the thought process on that kick?

 

[RayP]

Wish Nagy would throw to the TE position more often like he did his first year here with Burton. Let Kmet run some routes in the middle of the field.

 

[RememberTheRoar]

 

[Fortyfives]

So Nall seems productive

Why was he sitting on bench until 4th qtr?

He and Kmet had to have been watching and thinking why are we not in there

It’s garbage time

 

[RayP]

It’s garbage time

Not only that, but if I’m the defense and you want to throw check downs to a full back to try and get back in the game.... I’ll let you do that all day long.

 

[RayP]

I’m glad we went with Foles instead of Bridgewater, at least it’s less commitment. His decision making is AWFUL.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

In offseason we certainly need to see if interest in Robinson , Fuller , Hicks and Mack is there

If you can get quality assets you pull trigger on deals and rebuild

 

[RayP]

Carolina trying a 67 yard field goal..



might have even had enough leg had it been straight enough, way wide right though.

They can't trade all 4 in one offseason because of dead cap.

Fuller and Robinson definitely need to go this spring due to their contract situation. They should be able to get a 1st rounder for both guys, a 2nd at worst for Fuller.

Trade Mack and Hicks in-season in 2021.

Not saying trade all 4

Just saying see what interest is there

If I had to guess Mack will be hard to trade because of contract so Bears should hold onto him if the offers are not there

Fuller would be guy who teams would clearly have interest in

Robinson probably has more value than Fuller.

Please fire Pace before the idiot lets Robinson walk.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

No one is giving you a first round pick for Eddie Robinson especially when he wants longterm deal

 

[Mrfenn92]

Allen Robinson is a free agent at the end of this year.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Allen Robinson is a free agent at the end of this year.

True but we can franchise tag him and potentially flip him

It would be messy (He would be pissed) but it is within Bears rights under CBA

He could refuse to sign his tender on his end but then Bears can simply wait him out

 

[Kaners Bald Spot]

It's a shame the Bears wasted their best defensive performance of the season.

 

[HeisenBaez]

Not interested in a rebuild just yet. If a team comes calling and makes an offer the Bears can't refused, sure, but I keep this defense around and just FIXED THE DAMN OFFENSE. Nagy needs to go, period.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

 

[HeisenBaez]

Gawd, I can't wait till Nagy is no longer the HC of the Bears. A statement I probably also said about Jauron, Fox and Trestman.

 

[Marotte Marauder]

Is there one offensive play that Bears can call and be relied upon to be successful 75%+ of the time. One play? Any play?

 

[HeisenBaez]

Taking a knee?

 

[GaryU]

Is there one offensive play that Bears can call and be relied upon to be successful 75%+ of the time. One play? Any play?

no. Nagy's too 'smart' for that.

 

[Backyard Hockey]

It's a shame the Bears wasted their best defensive performance of the season.

Yes the best defensive performance overall, but still no turnovers created.

Great defenses have to get turnovers every single game.

 

[Backyard Hockey]

We can talk about playcalling and game awareness about Nagy all day long. His use of time outs and things like having to burn a TO after a succesful fake punt are mind numbing, but this falls on Pace.

Pace simply has ignored the offensive line. His offensive line drafts over the last 6 seasons have included Whitehair, Daniels and Grasu - correct? OLine was going to be the greatest need coming into the season and failed to address it. Gave Leno a contract he did not deserve.

Yes injuries. Yes Covid. But the reason you saw what you saw today on OLine is because of Pace and his failure to put talent on the roster.

Funny though - the team put 17 up with garbage on the field, yet they are averaging 20 with all of their starters there.
