Always felt odd, but seeing as we can get out of Edwards pretty easily after 1 year, and for almost nothing after 2, plus Edmunds can be moved after next year too, seems like they may have just been guys who they liked, but didnt have to fully commit to long term where as the OL/DL were getting very overpaid early on. (plus we needed to spend some money) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEAR FACE DOWN ARROW Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 5 hours ago, dll2000 said: Jack Sanborn quietly had a really good game overall on a quick watch on condensed. He made some mistakes. But he was noticeably around ball a lot. This is a good football player. We really didn't need to attack LB position in offseason as aggressively as we did. The LB pickups seemed odd at the time, and worse now given how bad we ended up at orther positions (DL, OL,) Also felt like the cornerbacks were a bit of a luxury but I actually like some of those guys unlike the value for Edmunds. Sanborn is really a great find and one of my favorite players. I still don't think he's as slow as people say and he has a knack for being in the right spot. Edmunds... he's very much continuing the tradition of the last two years of players coming here and looking worse or leaving and looking better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dll2000 Posted November 6, 2023 Author Share Posted November 6, 2023 This has been the most boring year I can remember. Across the board. The games are so boring. I rarely even finish them for other teams. On condensed view on gamepass. Takes like 35 mins to watch a whole game and I can't even hardly finish one. 2019 was most disappointing. I can't believe I basically started my fandom with '85 Bears. Greatest year in NFL history. Been all downhill since. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dll2000 Posted November 6, 2023 Author Share Posted November 6, 2023 The offensive execution is just crap. The only thing enjoyable lately is tush push. And then really only when Philly does it as most other teams can't really run it right. The refs suck. The announcers are boring. It's just a bad product. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a similar thought, but specifically about the penalties. Seemed like it was breaking up the game every couple plays. Then I looked it up and realized the Bears lead the league in penalties, including penalties pre snap. At least KC is second, so we must be doing something right, right? For what it's worth, the Bears are on pace to have over 1000yds of penalties, which would be great if it was a rusher getting rushing yards, or a receiver etc etc. Edited November 6, 2023 by BEAR FACE DOWN ARROW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docknstein11 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Alright I got rant for sec. As if there aren’t enough things for us to be concerned about our team why do Bear fans feel the need to stir up a controversy out of nothing? I keep seeing folks getting pre-mad that Jenkins will eventually go back to LG when Davis is healthy. Jenkins was murdering people at LG just like he is at RG. He can clearly play either side with ease. No offense to any of you but our fan base is overrun with drama queens who don’t know s*** about football. Again not you guys (most of you 😉). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dll2000 Posted November 7, 2023 Author Share Posted November 7, 2023 Jenkins is my favorite Bear right now. He is a baller. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dll2000 Posted November 7, 2023 Author Share Posted November 7, 2023 Doug Kramer played better than I expected in reps I saw him this year. Hoge said he watched a bunch of him in college and said he wasn't that good. Our center position is pretty weak right now. Been an ongoing thing for some time.
