CBears019 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 That taunting call….wtf?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topwop1 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 So Lamar Jackson is the benchmark for what all the Fields truthers strive for him to become? A guy who consistently chokes in the playoffs and who is still limited as a pocket passing QB? Ya I'll take the Mahomes type ceiling vs. Jackson thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StLunatic88 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 1 hour ago, Madmike90 said: I just can't see any way they could make it work to get up far enough...Bowers goes top 10 IMO...the Chiefs have so much money tied up in the top of their roster that they need draft picks in order to fill some of their spots...Jones & Sneed will need paid this offseason...next offseason they have Humphrey & Smith to pay...going to need to offset some of that with rookies. They have to get new weapons regardless. So giving up some to go get possibly the 2nd or 3rd best of the class that is falling just because he’s a TE? Bowers is almost assuredly not to go Top 5, so the price drops big time from there. And there’s a decent chance he’s still there at 9/10/11 depending on the defenders that go, and if someone reaches for Daniel’s. So what if it costs next years first (likely in the late 20s or after) and like a 4th this year to move up from 31/32? Seems like something they would have to do. Especially if you believe you can have 2+ years with both Kelce and Bowers. Their window is wide open right now, you have to keep doing as much as you can to keep it going. Figure out the contracts later, you won’t always be able to keep everyone and you won’t have everyone on their same contracts as they are now (Taylor) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya I'll take the Mahomes type ceiling vs. Jackson thanks Pretending you wouldnt take Lamar Jackson is a whole nother level of delusion. Just stop it So is pretending Williams is going to be at Mahomes level, you know a level that no other QB has ever been at? Is that where the staunch reluctance to even talk about other options from the Williams camp? That you honestly believe there is some real chance that he is Patrick Mahomes? If so, I’ve got a few Bridges for sale Edited January 28 by StLunatic88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything it should probably give us more hope that if we did enough in FA that we could then take Bowers at #9 to give Caleb the ultimate safety blanket.

So then if someone feels they need to take/move up to take Jalen Daniel’s, plus that 2nd OT, and if Turner or Arnold (or both) and not to mention you could also have Odunze go ahead of him if a Team has a TE it doesn’t feel they are as important to their offense. Going 10 or 11 for Bowers is absolutely not out of the question, especially since the Kyle Pitts pick keeps getting more and more ridicule 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malak1 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Probably a little irrational, but I’ll never forgive Ryan Pace for not taking Mahomes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, I’ve got a few Bridges for sale If we didn't have the #1 pick sure I'd take Lamar Jackson but we do so I'm aiming for higher than that For the record, I don't expect CW to turn into Mahomes bu you gotta take the home run swings when they present themselves ..can't be afraid to swing and miss Settling for Lamar might get you into playoffs semi regularly but I have my doubts you're ever going to have sustained success with that type of QB play Just my opinion 🤷 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think there's a decent chance the Bear trade back a couple picks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higher than a guy who has never personally been under .500 as a starter, who’s team has made the playoffs 5/6 years you’ve been there (only missing when you were hurt the most). Having Won the division 3/6 years and averaging 11 wins per season? Ok we have gone off the deep end for sure. OR, or or or… are you maybe subconsciously realizing that it’s not just about a QB, it’s about having the most complete and deep roster to make Super Bowl runs. Because if you just want to be threatening for the playoffs every year, sure a Great QB can do that for you (or you could be in a Justin Herbert situation) but if you want to “aim higher than that” you need an entire team to do so, which we are most certainly not at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying it was some shocking thing that we need to shield the youngsters eyes from. But spiking or spinning the football at your opponent could not be a more cut and dry taunting call It was a stupid decision by Flowers, which seemed to be the result of the edge that the Ravens purposefully went into that game with (it cost them multiple times) which you just can’t do when going up against Patrick Mahomes and what has become one of the best Defenses in the league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugashane Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 So can anyone explain why BAL abandoned the run game? Like who herebwould have guessed thr Ravens would only run it 16 times? That's not how the team is built, that's like telling Fields to throw it 40+ times. Bizarre. If I saw them only run 16 times I'd assume they were in a 30 point shootout, not losing 10-17. That was terrible playcalling. Jackson wasn't good but his playcaller screwed him bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
