    Allen is a tremendous disappointment.  I guess we'll have to crank up the Excuse Generator and establish some kind of down year narrative. I'll start:

    It's really hard to tell the Jets players and Bills players apart!

    New girlfriend keeps him up late

    Elbow still hurt

    Feel free to add

    Even more Delayed Onset Emotional Exhaustion from last year. Didn't quite get it all out. That's been the crutch all offseason. Let's ride that pony into the ground.

    I like old school hardass tough guy Dan Campbell.

    I also like new school dweeb Mike McDaniel.

    That kind of contrast is what makes the NFL fun.

    Go Lions! (and bills)

    Mike McDaniel is the Jimmy Fallon of NFL coaches. Never understood the appeal in the first place but I’m enjoying everyone coming around to the fact he’s a jerk.

  3. Oh Gatekeepers of fandom, please instruct me how to fan. Can't point out problems, only drink kool aid.

    The irony is that if we support the regime lockstep, then we HAVE to believe that Edmunds either couldn't be resigned or wasn't worth it. The mental gymnastics required to be both a Edmunds fanboy AND true McBeane believer could be harnessed as renewable energy to power the world.

    Honestly, I would like Elam on Wilson to press him a bit and take him off his route. Make Aaron take that extra split second so our pressure can get there. 

    Yeah but he wouldn't get the Sauce Gardner rules where you can grab every play for the entire route without flags

    On a side note.  I wish the league would offer recoup of the draft pick if a Rookie is cut and claimed.  It makes it so hard to keep and develop later talent when you have a good roster build out.  They can easily do this before the compensatory picks are handed out.  

    It’s the NFL equivalent of bidding $1 on the Price is Right. Just find a team that doing well and wait for their cuts.

  6. Took a stroll along a Bears forum to see how they viewed the game and most are reacting like we did against Pittsburgh. Disappointed with the offense not playing up to expectations, worrying about their preseason darlings making it to the PS, etc. 


    More than a few starting to wonder about Edmunds. He's missed 10 practices for an undisclosed injury and only played a single series. But I was mostly impressed that Bears fans seem to know what they're in for with Edmunds as far as his strengths and weakness. They seem to have hope for him to contribute, but don't make him a cause to prove their GM's competency like some felt when he was with us. 

     

    One had the keen foresight to call out why he's not worth a top 10 draft pick in 2018. But also thought Marcus Davenport was going to set the league on fire too.
