Tony Martin August 24, 2019 0

Wow. There are moments as a sports fan where you can say “I was there when ______ happened”. The Cleveland Cavilers come back from a 3-1 deficit to beat the Warriors. Keith Traylor returns a Mark Brunell interception 67 yards. Mick Foley gets thrown off the Hell in a Cell cage. Mick

Have the Bears Found Their Kicker?

Wes French August 22, 2019 0

And then there was one. Eddy Piñeiro is the lone kicker remaining from the Bears extensive offseason search to replace ol’ double-doink, Cody Parkey. Steady Eddy won the right to kick sans competition about as much as the recently cut Elliot “J” Fry lost the job, so sure. Congrats. But the recent damning article by […]

Denver? The Sunshine State? Gorgeous!

Brian Schmitz August 21, 2019 0

Regardless of how great the 2019 Bears defense is supposed to be, the success of the team will ultimately rely on the play of third-year quarterback Mitch Trubisky. This could be a problem if Trubisky’s advanced metrics from the 2018 season are any indication of future performance. To be clear, I am convinced #10 for […]

Sam Fels August 19, 2019 0

That time again. Our Bears wing breaks down whatever they thought was important, and wasn’t, from the Bears’ trip to New Jersey.  What did we learn in the second preseason game?

Bears Preseason Game 2 Lightning Reactions

Tony Martin August 16, 2019 0

AKA “The James Vaughters Game” -If it wasn’t for James Vaughters and Kerrith Whyte Jr, tonight would’ve been a total waste of a Friday, even though it’s not like I was doing anything else. Two of my favorite bottom of the roster skill position players had a bad night, Marvin Hall trying his “bad Devin […]

Matt Nagy’s Fixation On Kickers Will Surely Kill Us All

Sam Fels August 14, 2019 0

I know that football coaches are obsessives beyond the point of comprehension. I get that every minute detail of the team is pored over to a degree that a lazy-ass like myself would think comes from another dimension. “Fixation” is a word that most NFL coaches are so far beyond it’s not even worth considering.

Sons Of Wilber Marshall – After The 1st Preseason Game

Sam Fels August 13, 2019 0

We gathered our Bears crew in the aftermath of the preseason opener to take a temperature. We won’t tell you about the thermometer application. And away we go? Did we learn anything important from the Bears first preseason game? Tony Martin: What popped for y’all? Nick Kwiatkoski still can’t cover the pass. I’m hoping the […]

Gruden’s Revenge: Why the Bears Could be on Hard Knocks 2021, and Why it Won’t Matter

Tony Martin August 13, 2019 0

Hard Knocks season is upon us, and for the first time ever I am just not feeling it. For as long as I can remember, the first week of August finds me pumped as fuck that I share a Comcast account with my mother (yes I am 33 years old, thank you) and that she […]

Kicker? I Hardly Know Her

Brian Schmitz August 12, 2019 0

Last Thursday, the Bears lost a football game that didn’t matter. However, for Eddy Pineiro and Elliott Fry it meant everything. Just about every NFL kicker and punter knows that for them, preseason games are just as important as the real games. No other position has as much riding on their future employment as specialists […]
