I wanted him to be "The" guy, I was rooting for him, I was sipping the Kool aid & buying all the excuses and just could not wrap my head around why he was soo... average. Now, after watching him QB the leagues worst or 2nd worst D in the league he looks awful, not average, not below average, he just looks lost. While I'm still not ready to write him off entirely as a bust, I need to see more. The more I watch him though, the more I'm starting to think he may have cost us a shot or 2 @ the SB. Inquiring minds want to know. Keep this thread going imho. Bears fans know a thing or two about how a great linebacker is supposed to look. They’ve been spoiled. “Our linebackers are bad. Reallllly bad.” When I read that on their boards I laughed, don’t know why. But genuinely laughed. They’re not happy with Edmunds or the other signing, TJ Edwards. But at least he signed for a modest amount. Edmunds… ouch. I feel for them. Okay maybe I don’t. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes it even more interesting is that his replacement who few had high hopes for has already matched Edmunds single season sack and interception records, and is on pace to break his tackle record as well. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A guy they were trying to replace (w/Kirksey) even. It's eye opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets see how that goes... Let Him Walk, he is going to cost way too much to resign and we are 31 million over the salary cap in 2024 with just 42 players signed as we stand right now. Beane has stretched out his ability to restructure contacts. We most definitely will no be able to restucture our way out of next years salary cap situation. it makes complete sense to go into next years draft and find a cost controlled WR capable of becoming a #1 playing the part of our #2 until Diggs retires or loses a step. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is exactly my point. I am saying watch them resign him and then the tune will change. Now its he is not worth the money, not good enough, blah blah.

Chaos Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 On 9/28/2023 at 7:07 AM, Coach Tuesday said: Bears Not Getting Return on Front Seven Investment (Athletic paywall) “Now, Edmunds did go to the locker room with an undisclosed injury. Maybe he wasn’t at 100 percent. But while he does come free, the rush in itself just doesn’t seem to have the twitch or urgency needed considering who is throwing the football.” Exactly what I saw watching that game - he was running half speed all afternoon. Wtf? Edmunds is leading the Bears to top. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davis, like Edmunds, will get way more on the open market than he deserves. And the Bills can afford to re-sign him for anything more than the minimum. 7 minutes ago, Buffalo716 said: You have no idea that kirksey was a Bernard replacement...

More like insurance in case something happened to Bernard I truly believe the Kirksey was being brought in and was given a chance to learn the playbook, and then was going to get elevated to start Then Bernard happened And once they saw, they finally had some thing and GameDay situations they probably told Kirksey that he was going to be brought up to back up Bernard, which Kirksey didn’t like and retired That’s my theory and I’m sticking to it🤓 19 minutes ago, Starr Almighty said: He's already fitting right in.
