I can't imagine that the replacements on our weak offensive line are current members of our offensive line. That would not be a good thing.

Just to keep in mind, you don't just get rid of players, you replace them. Who replaces Morse? I'd like to see Beasley stay, despite his preseason covid BS he's still incredibly valuable. The offense moves so much better when he's getting involved.

Who will our new center be? i think that was always the case, lot of contracts had easy outs after this season. Addison, Williams, Hughes...

I can't imagine if you're not a fan enough to watch the Super Bowl, you would watch if certain teams participated, unless it's your home city team and you just like to see your city celebrate.

Why do so many people say football(baseball, basketball...) is a kids game when it is played by so many adults and most of us only watch the adult versions unless we have a child participating? It's a kids game at times, it's an adult game and it's one of the biggest businesses in the country. Do you think there are really a significant number of people that wouldn't watch the Super Bowl unless the Bucs and Patriots were in it? Anyone here only watch the Super Bowl based on the participants? And would it really matter to the NFL, advertising spots are sold out before the participants are determined I would guess.

This comment made me think of something, didn't Marv take over play calling in the redzone? I seem to remember him saying that.

That would make 5 'wake up' calls this season. No we don't need that, we need to play better at the line of scrimmage.

That early in the game you would still be expecting a possible pass. It was just poor execution, nothing terribly wrong with the lineup.

One simple explanation for tonight is that our Oline is really bad. Other issues, wasting timeouts, not trying our passing game earlier, missed FG even in the wind shouldn't have happened, nothing creative offensively, poor linebacker play, threw away great field position twice in the first qtr. Poor coaching all around.

we did stack the box, didn't help.

There are no elements in May to September? Then no domes either , right? Or no games in San Diego/LA...

But the game usually sucks. We won the Colts game by a fluke PI call or we are out of the playoffs. This is not the way the biggest game of the season should be played. A little, yeah, but not where you can't run your game plan.

But do you see this type of reaction for a sunny and 75 degree day in September? Does anyone say 'this is football weather'? No

In Sept and October too? That's ridiculous. Why wouldn't you say nice weather goes hand in hand when it's sunny? This is stupid weather to play football in. Somehow people decided that of all types of weather the game is played in, bad weather is football weather. Crazy.

How will that help us? Besides, the Colts already exercised the 5th year option. He's not going anywhere.

Jesus, really?

that's the forecast? OMG

What are your thoughts on a 3 DB alignment? With Neal being one of them,

you think that's a terrible take, it's a fact, but no comment on a 4-4-3 defensive alignment? 3 in the secondary will take away the run, but of course there will be a lot of passing yards surrendered.

If we were able to sack the QB regularly, I think we could make this less devastating, but these new guys will be expected to do some heavy duty coverage because we can't sack the QB.

Nope, but even if that happened, is that a draw for people to want to be here for a Super Bowl? I work at high end golf club in Scottsdale, we are already planning for the Super Bowl here in 2023. This is the type of thing people want to do when they travel, not go shopping.

I know everyone is trying to paint an optimistic picture here and that's fine. But this is a devastating loss. We have a very good defense overall, but Tre was special and you can't replace that. This is hugely significant.

Need to put a dome over the whole city to get a Super Bowl.

I think every team should have a retractable roof and the league should pay for it. It's to the benefit of everyone.

Chicago isn't called the 'Windy City' because of weather. It originated long time ago because of all the big time politicians talking all the time 'big bags of wind'. At least that is one theory. Just a little tibit for ya.
