    Thomas Jones was a very good player for us. The draft picks were awful.
  2. He has every right to talk up his new team. Some people have it out for him, personally I respect his talent, his work ethic, and how he handles himself given his personality disorder. I'm a fan of Brandon Marshall the person.
  3. I dont post here much, but there is another way to look at the Brandon Marshall trade. Personally I like Marshall a lot. I respect him for how he works his Personality Disorder, and I believe he is talented and passionate. I understand why people are not happy about the trade. But there is another angle, and that is that we cannot seem to get rid of Jay Cutler. And the problem with Jay Cutler it seems is that he won't execute the play and make the reads, but instead locked in on Marshall, and played sandlot football. Between the lines I think a LOT of coaches have held their collective tongues while Cutler believed he was above it all. We read how Gase will look to limit Cutler and make him play in a system. I assume that if Cutler was a free agent, we would not be interested. Therefore, it makes sense to me that trading Marshall was the only move they could make to break up the band, and try to force Cutler to play in a system. BM has good years left, but he probably isn't going to be around when this build peaks anyway, so from that point of view it makes a lot of sense. I wish him well in NY, and I remain a fan of his and not if Cutler's. I truly believe that if they had the same cap hit, Cutler would be gone and BM would be staying.
  4. He slammed Tucker as a Rooney Rule hire. First off the Rooney rule doesnt apply to coordinators. Secondly the rule doesnt require a hiring, it requires an interview. Im not even sure I support the rule frankly. But to say that Tucker is bad and only there because of his race is racist. If you guys are cool with racist statements then Im out of here. Good luck in your hateful little lives.
  5. Nope. Racism is disgusting. Im not trying to have a political discussion, I didnt bring it up, Im simply not gonna sit around here while Terra says racist bullshit. Im not trying to have a broad based discussion about race, that has nothing to do with it. I am shocked at the apologists here. You simply dont care? WTF
  6. I asked him to distance himself from the comment, and he refused. it was clearly a racist statement. Im pretty conservative politically. Im not one that goes looking for racism. I support the officer in Ferguson after what Ive read. That said, I have no tolerance for actual racism, and all Terra has to do is take it back, and he refuses to. So, it speaks for itself. Hes a pig.
  7. Id like to ask the moderators to ban Terra please. He has been a total dick for years, but that was always about football, now this racist crap is over the line. DO the right thing or I and it seems a bunch of us will leave.
  8. Listen you racist dickwad, I dont need to get over anything. All you need to do is retract your Rooney Rule comment, but you wont,. cuz youre a pussy who is too big to admit hes wrong -OR- youre a racist asshole. I dont care if I get banned here for this. I know right from wrong. Youre a major asshole, you racist freak.
  9. Yeah this is a load of double talk horseshit. You mentioned the Rooney Rule, because you were talking about his skin, now you dont have the courage to either stand behind what you siad or distance yourself from it. Youre a freakin pussy. You really are.
  10. You said he was a Rooney Rule hire. Maybe you want to distance yourself from that, or claim it more strongly, so far youre taking the third coward route.
  11. Ive heard you say some pretty dumb things on this board, but this one takes the cake. Mel Tucker might be the dumbest worst football coach of all time, but it has nothing to do with his race. Even you should know better. You should be ashamed of yourself. As I see it you have three choices: 1) Retract your statement and apologize 2) Be overt that youre a racist and you stand behind what you said 3) do neither and be a total coward
  12. He is a returner, and Weems was one of our best ST coverage guys too. Stands to reason a fast defensive player is a good choice to get down on coverage and make tackles too.
  13. He's not saying that he doesn't think about the Super Bowl, he just mispoke about the month. I am CONFIDENT that he thinks about, and wants to win the super bowl more than any of us want them to. I KNOW he's working harder every day on that idea than we are. Further, I have 100% confidence in Trestman's focus and ability on keeping his players in the right place to work towards a Super Bowl victory. If you want a kicker who does a better job kissing press butt over one who kicks the football, then I gotta wonder whether YOUR priorities are on winning the Super Bowl LOL Anyway, I dont think its an issue, and Im not particularly upset about it or this discussion Thanks for the distraction!
  14. Do you think he got to be a few kicks shy of the greatest kicker in NFL history by not caring? These guys invest more hard work in themselves and football than I bet any of us do in our jobs or hobbies. You're calling him out on a misstatement, and attempting to make it mean something it doesn't, especially given that he was saying that they should be super committed right now. That was his point. This is silly.
  15. If you want to judge his attitude then listen to what he said and the context he said it in. He was saying that he is fully committed to this season, even so early in the year. That this is NOT the time to take a vacation, but instead to be serious and work. The rest is some semantic voodoo that makes no sense.
  16. LOL that anyone thinks Robbie was saying that he doesn't want to win the Super Bowl I mean come on. And LOL at the GMs in here that would cut him for that too. He's the best kicker in Bears history, and hes just a few kicks shy of the best in NFL history. He meant after the season.
  17. Yeah, happy Father's Day to everyone!
  18. I truly hope so! If we got good production out of our safeties, we could be a VERY scary team this year.
  19. So as you probably know, but for the benefit of the discussion, the Tampa Cover 2 is kind of a misnomer. Sure they play that zone, and others. But the thing that really defines the Cover 2 is that the front is a one gap front. Your comments clearly show you knew that already From what Ive read, they will not be changing to a 2 gap front. But Tucker did allude to changing some fo the run fit rules, i.e. which one gap a given position is responsible for. I like the one gap front. I think it's aggressive and maximizes the possibility for QB pressure, especially on running downs. That said, a one gap run front also lends itself to blitz packages. I wouldnt be surprised if we saw a more diverse scheme from Tucker this year. That said, being in a set zone while the front four gets fast pressure is certainly a recipe for interceptions. In zone, the players are facing the QB and reading him. I can't wait to see the new scheme, even if it's not that different, and especially how the new talent plays within it!
  20. I agree, our front office is doing a great job with the cap, and contracts. I do think we are ascending, and will be contenders soon.
  21. I think to go out and dominate in the NFL you need to have a chip on your shoulder. It's different than how we would talk to each other, but it's good to believe in yourself. I'm sure it's a mind game to try to consider yourself amongst the best in the NFL, so that he can verbalize that is a good sign that he's not over his head. And, he might be right GO BEARS!
  22. It sounds like Werder asked a Cowboy staffer "How much interest is there in Urlacher" and the guy said "not much" and from that he took it to mean there was some, and then had to backtrack. "So you're saying there's a chance?"
