This team is so weird, we consider 9 guys on offense the young core but it's the same young core that has done absolutely nothing on offense. Is a WR1 and C going to magically fix this? I don't think so. We probably need a C, G, a pass-catching TE, a WR1 and WR3 (Slot WR). The cap next year is a disaster. Mack $30M, Quinn $17M, Jackson $15M, Goldman $12M, those 4 making $74M is criminal. Pace should be locked up for that. That doesn't even count Foles making $10.6M, Graham making $4.6M, Trevathan making $5.9M, Dalton making $5M, and Cohen making $5.7M, which is an additional $31.8M on players making zero contributions to the team. So $105.8M in those 9 players with only Mack, Quinn, and somewhat Goldman contributing. There are very few guys you can save money by cutting, but for the roster spots, I would cut Foles, Cohen and Graham. That will cost $15.7M in dead cap, but free up 3 roster spots. The offense would have Fields, Montgomery, Herbert, Mooney, Whitehair, Ifedi, Jenkins, Borom, Kmet, Dalton and James. They will need to address C, G, WR1, and WR3 with roster spots. If they re-sign Daniels, that fills one hole. On defense, you are paying Mack, Quinn, Goldman, Smith, Jackson, Trevathan, Blackson, Gipson (S), Attacochu, Edwards, Johnson, Shelley, Gipson (OLB), and Tonga. With the potential loss of Hicks and Nichols, you would need 2x DL, 2x CB, S, and ILB. So the offseason will have to fill holes at C, G, WR1, WR3, DL, DL, CB2 with upgrades needed at CB3, S, and ILB. That is a lot to do without a 1st Round pick and limited cap space. The new GM will have their work cut out for them. I would also cut Vildor twice.

Kirk Cousins beat him too.

The season is over, they would have to win 6 out of 7 to only have a slim chance at the playoffs based on wins by SF and MIN. So with that, this is what needs to happen the rest of the season or before next season. Fire Pace, fire Nagy and the entire coaching staff. You have to get the stench off this team and the only way is to clean house. Allow the new GM to come in and hire his guy. On offense, draft/sign a Center and WR, don't sign ARob, don't resign Monty. On defense, shoot Vildor to the moon, draft/sign a starting CB, Safety and ILB. Don't re-sign Nichols, only bring Hicks back on a one-year deal. To end this season, I would bring up Adams to see what he can do. You might as well cut Byrd. I would sit or put as many vets on IR as possible and get an extended look at some of the younger guys.

That's why I think they may not sign him. He has good contact balance, but is slow to the hole and is blind back there. He still does his juke thing when he doesn't need to and that allows defenders to close space.

The Bears are 6-14 in their last 20 regular season games. That is exactly how I feel too. That is a 4-win team for a 16 game season.

It's hilarious. I hate to say it but they need to lose out so there is no way Nagy is back. Vildor is arguably the worst DB in the NFL and the Bears keep running him out there. 2x DPI's that were both unnecessary, and one on the final drive that gave the Ravens 20 yards.

Just allowed a TD in a minute and 19 seconds to a backup QB without a WR.

3 yards to lose.

30 yards left to lose.

So Dalton throws to a wide-open Goodwin on a double move on 4th and 11 for 49 yards to take the lead. Now the defense has to prevent a TD to win. Baltimore needs only 50 yards after Vildor with a pass interference penalty.

After a Gipson INT, the Bears go 3 and out, ugh. Mooney with another pass that hits his hands. Then they partially block the punt. What the hell.

Roquan is going to have 20+ tackles in this game. Gipson does what Eddie Jackson hasn't done in 2 years, intercept a pass. What a play!

Andrews 8 receptions......

Monty has no vision by the way. Watch Herbert hit the hole vs Monty.

On 4th and 1 you go Wild Cat? Are you serious?

So on 3rd and 1 from the 50, you throw a bomb, then punt?

Quinn has 3.5 sacks today, wow. Now 4th in the NFL.

Gipson and Little Mack with the sack to end the 3rd quarter. 3rd and 29 from their own 16. The Bears need a stop and they should have great field position. NO PENALTIES!

Dalton is the perfect backup, but they are also wasting money on Foles as the 3rd QB.

The Bears hadn't called a screen in weeks, then call one on Dalton's second play. This coaching staff is such a joke.

Fields hurt his ribs. Doubtful to return. Dalton comes in and scores on two plays. One pass to Graham, then a WR screen to Mooney who takes it to the house. LOL.

This is all on coaching. What an embarrassment. There is no way the Bears should be losing this game.

So with a bye week, our offense couldn't muster a point at home? Yet, the Ravens, not coming off a bye, without their starting QB and best WR have 6 points. Just fire Nagy at halftime.

It's hilarious, even on an incompletion, they were targeting Vildor who was 8 yards off the receiver. Just a bad throw.

Vildor again, get him off the field!
