{Family Ghost} Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 (edited) Chicago media and the Bears have an inferiority complex when it comes to the Packers. They are trying really hard to stir up a rivalry with this Clinton Dix vs. Amos stuff. Several stories of late about this .. all coming out of Chicago. https://www.profootballweekly.com/2019/06/13/hub-arkush-chicago-bears-and-new-s-ha-ha-clinton-dix-expect-to-have-last-laugh/a71yvnu/ You have to be a member to read this, but I think you get the idea.

It's just posturing. If they really believed HHCD was and always had been the better player they would have gave him a lot more than a 1 year, $3.5 million deal, full stop. No one says "yes this guy is a great safety who grades awesome, let's give him a cheap one year prove it deal so we can pay him ten times this much next season!" If they legitimately believed HHCD was about to go off in their defense they'd have locked him up for as long as they could. Even Chicago isn't convinced he could be trusted; all of this nonsense is smoke because it looks bad when your former safety gets a big deal with a rival and then you sign their former player (that two teams didn't want) for cheap. Having said that, if they actually graded HHCD better than Amos last year, then I look forward to seeing that team Hindenberg into the ground. I've never accumulated more distaste for a player I previously liked than I do every time I watch HHCD on film the last two years. He played soft, tentative football designed to keep him safe while maximizing his splash stats. This is partly just personal preference, but I absolutely despise the type of safety he's become, which sucks because early career Ha Ha was a grinder and frankly I miss him 🙁 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God was that thing out of control. It was just a build up for the pinnacle of his career in the Bengals game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God was that thing out of control. I still remember getting destroyed on Reddit when Jones was playing linebacker some in OTAs and it was OMG WE FINALLY HAVE OUR SUPER FAST AWESOME LINEBACKER. And just being like okay, slow the roll boys. Good to be excited though but we are getting ahead of ourselves on a lot of **** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until the hype doesn't become real right away and everyone cries bust because whoever the player is, isn't great the first 3 weeks or whatnot. This was also a kind of a shot at Reddit.. Where it seemed half of them thought Brice was going to switch to corner and be the next Sherman lol.

They didn't think like that lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
