I'm a little disheartened this morning. The packers are going to be the last team standing and its possible all the good DC candidates will have jobs before we are done winning the Owl.

More sarcasm? If in fact we are the "last team standing", it likely will be at the painful cost of retaining Joe Barry. Beyond that, though, on the chance that Barry is gone, yeah, maybe all the oldies like Martindale etc. will be gone, but what we we would be a lot better off with IMO is a young innovative energetic DC. Also IMO, we should have a DC who shakes things up and changes the system. That, however, likely ain't gonna happen because LaFleur apparently likes the system currently in place.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

On Wilde and Tausch (and they detest Barry) they declared Joe Barry as one of the big winners in the past two weeks and noted he's made a ton of adjustments and is AGAIN making his last season surge to keep his jobOriginally posted by bobblehead View PostI'm a little disheartened this morning.

TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

MLF said after the Tampa Bay game that he needed to spend more time with the defense. So there might be some question as to whether the changes are primarily Barry's idea or MLF's.Originally posted by Bretsky View PostOn Wilde and Tausch (and they detest Barry) they declared Joe Barry as one of the big winners in the past two weeks and noted he's made a ton of adjustments and is AGAIN making his last season surge to keep his job

At least in this game we were playing more man and letting our athletes be athletes. We also ran a couple DL stunts which I haven't noticed all year. If it was 2 weeks running and I didn't notice I blame alcohol.....and weed.....and shrooms. Ok, maybe a bump or 2 of coke as well....Just a rail though. I'm not a junkie after all.Originally posted by Bretsky View PostOn Wilde and Tausch (and they detest Barry) they declared Joe Barry as one of the big winners in the past two weeks and noted he's made a ton of adjustments and is AGAIN making his last season surge to keep his job

Bears keeping Eberflus but firing Getsy and his staff. Could this mean Getsy is getting the blame for Fields, and they will keep Fields? Or do they just think he couldn't do the job and won't give him a shot at Caleb Williams?Tom Pelissero
@TomPelissero

How can da Bears think Fields is their future after watching that last game? They guy just can't seem to keep his eyes downfield - he gets too caught up in what's happening right around him.
Plus, if they do keep him, they've got to re-up him, and with the QB money being as crazy as it is, you're going to be spending a HUGE amount of your salary cap for him while you draft the thirty rookies in the next two drafts that you're going to get for trading that #1 pick. And it's still a QB league. I just do not see how they can think he's "the guy" when they are positioned to pick Williams or Mayes. How often does a team get the #1 overall pick in a year there are two really, really good QB prospects?
Unless they like Penix or Nix or someone else better. Then they could trade out of that #1 spot, get a bazillion picks, and then go get whichever QB they like.
On top of that, then your QB is on a rookie contract for five years."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

I agree that the logical thing is to get rid of Fields and draft Caleb Williams. But don't ever underestimate the ability of the Bears to make the wrong decision at quarterback.I can't run no more

His solution was draft Williams, let him sit for a year behind Fields. If Fields plays well in 24, you trade Williams for picks. If Fields plays like he usually does, you let Fields walk and hope someone else offers him a nice contract and get a comp pick.
Rich also stated that CHI is way behind all of the NFC N starters at QB if Cousins comes back fro the Vikings.But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.
