John DeFilippo was his QB coach when the dude won Super Bowl MVP. For a QB2, and again depending upon cost, this is a nice move. FWIW Flip was also his OC last year when he got benched for Minshew.

If the Jaguars are taking the cap hit in 2020, how does that affect us? I hate that we lost a 4th round pick, but I think the Jags were really unwilling to budge. With Foles, I feel good about the offense taking a step forward and being competent. Jags are eating $18.75m in prorated bonus over the next 3 years. His contract with us is 3 yrs / $50m. We can cut him after this year with $12.5m dead money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beardown3231 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Listen to you guys. Who cares about Flip liking him or whatever? He got benched last year for a 6th rounder who's shine slowly wore off. He was 0-4 last year. He stinks. Not bad enough to be 2-14, not good enough to be 11-5. Pace is such a dip****. Thanks a lot, clown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just potential and special teamers. Because we can’t just assume that both those #2 picks will be guys who can contribute right away in a significant way. That’d be ideal but is far from a given.

TankWilliams Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Well, I'm not a Foles fan, but at least Trubisky has some competition. I'd have rather had Newton if it was between the two of them, at least Newton has potential for upside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair he got hurt week 1, didn't come back until week 11 and didn't play well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOGRIESE Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Just watching some highlights because I'm bored....all those floater passes on the sideline to Cohen. He won't miss those like Mitch does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vegas492 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I don't know what QB could be successful with the Bears offensive line. Spent money on a way over the hill TE, older but still great pass rusher and now spent more money on a guy who was injured and ultimately benched for 6'th round pick who flashed and then got pretty dull. Gotta think there's going to have to be some roster maneuvering to get him and the contract in under the cap. Then there is the dead cap for him and Graham that eats into future years. Man. You win in the trenches. Invest in the o-line already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you are generally correct, for Bears to have a chance in 2020 the O line needs to play a lot better. A lot better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
