That being said it is not like he is walking into a loaded Offense. You wouldnt call it loaded, but its NFL caliber and it's up to the coaches to put them in the best position to succeed. ARob would be the best WR Wentz would ever play with, Mooney can be a younger DJax, Kmet is a lot like Ertz. Believe it or not the Bears OL once the settled in on the 5 was better than the Eagles. That's why my focus is on taking care of the OL first. I would pencil in Mustipher, Whitehair, Daniels. Draft an OT to compete w/ Leno this year. Resign Ifedi, Bars.

Epyon Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 To quote quote one of the greatest fictional philosophers of our time: "A boat is just a boat Louis, but the the mystery box could be anything.... it could even be a boat!" I'm going with the mystery box personally. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk, seems like a ton of wishful projection (not saying you're claiming anything, just with the player comps). Agree with ARob but Mooney and Kmet are the discount versions of DJax (one of the best deep threats in NFL history) and Ertz (who has been dominant at times). When all was settled and we had that winning streak we were playing some really bad defenses too. If we look at the OL in 2019 for PHI for example we get smoked at every position but LG and it isnt even close. I've said the same steps you mentioned but it still leaves a pretty uninspiring OL.

They *have* to do something, and they *have* to maximize return in 2021. That won't be a rookie QB and, if they have their druthers, it won't cost draft capital in 2021. Curious AF to see what happens, if this is locked in I'd expect an announcement sometime this week (Tues?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WindyCity Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 We need better OTs. Brady didn’t get touched all night and they ran the ball down their throats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was talk about a 2nd round pick potentially coming back but that could be total bs...if Pace manged to get that tho it would make the deal that much more palatable and then they could hypothetically use two 2nds to address the OL and WR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
