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,

The Sons Of Wilber Marshall – Preseason Week 2 Roundtable

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? Tony Martin: Marvin Hall does not make this team, unfortunately. If Kerrith Whyte Jr can provide 4 phase special teams play, Hall is toast […]

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 […]

Bears/Panthers Initial Reactions- Night Of

Tony Martin August 8, 2019 0

Bad football rules because you know that it’s only a matter of time before the games start to count and I gotta say I was super geeked to watch the Bears play again. I’d say that the game tonight went about as well as the first preseason game could be expected to go, especially in […]

Bears 2019 Success Is Tied To Mitchell Trubisky

Wes French August 8, 2019 0

The Bears are through a week and a half of practices and we’ve learned that the defense is still incredible, the beat writers LOVE the kicking  competition and no one knows if anything has improved in the play of Mitchell Trubisky. Mitch and his development sort of flew under the radar this Summer when Cody […]

Are The Expectations For Mitch Trubisky Too High?

Brian Schmitz August 7, 2019 0

This is the time of the football year when you literally cannot believe any of the news that comes out of camp. This isn’t just a Bears situation; this is the norm league wide. The NFL’s tightening of media accessibility as well every coach now borrowing the personality of Bill Belichick has basically made training […]

The Chicago Bears Will Not Make A Deep Playoff Run In 2019 If…

Brian Schmitz August 1, 2019 0

…Mitch Trubisky doesn’t make a marked improvement in his game. I am big Mitch supporter. He is one of the hardest working guys on the roster and he may be the most athletic quarterback in the league. But, (and with Mitch there is always a “but”) you are only as good as your stats, and […]

Bears in Bourbonnais: Boring Ain’t So Bad

Wes French July 30, 2019 0

Do you hear anything? No? Me either. No noise. No torches and pitchforks. No jobs on the line (yet). It’s pretty boring around here. Usually in late July we’re all too eager here in Chicago to begin HOT TAKE SZN surrounding the Bears and the NFL. This July, though, feels different. Is everyone just happy […]
