Barring injury to Allen, he is relegated to leading the Scout Team for the Bills.

Like it feels like there is no plan, and that is why Pace likes Nagy, because he runs the offense with no plan or direction, even down to playcalling. What is the short and long-term strategy for this roster? Did the Bears have to sign Dalton that fast? Were there other comparable options? If Mariota gets cut because he won't take a pay cut, I am sure he would want more than a one-year deal, but something similar to what he got last year, 2-yr $17.6M would seem reasonable, and a smaller cap in 2021 for the Bears. There are too many of these situations. I still remember the Miller trade in 2018. He traded away a future 2nd and the #105 for Miller at #51, while better WRs were still on the board (Chark, Gallup, Washington). Pace called the following year a week WR class (Brown, Metcalf, Hardman, Johnson, McLaurin all drafted after Bears pick).

So Bears rush to sign Dalton, then Mariota gets released.... Seriously, you can't make this stuff up. If Mariota signs for anything close to $10M, Pace should be fired on the spot.

Outside of WR3, how much better was Cooper/Lamb vs ARob/Mooney? Same with Elliott vs Montgomery, as a pure RB runner, sure, but overall game, close to a push. So Gallup wins in a landslide, but at TE? Graham/Kmet vs Witten? So to me, he would be coming in with comparable weapons and a better O-line, which is crazy. Also add Cohen as the X factor.

Yeah I saw this, very funny.

Interesting: Dalton 74-66-2, 2973-4782, 33764 yds, 62.2% Comp, 7.1 Y/A, 218 TDs, 126 INT, 87.5 QB Rating Cutler 74-79, 3048-4920, 35133 yds, 62.0% Comp, 7.1 Y/A, 227 TDs, 160 INT, 85.3 QB Rating So based on sheer numbers, Dalton had the exact same production as Culter with 25% less INTs. Dalton did it in one less season too. In comparison, Nick Foles is 67-55 with 13753 yds, 81 TD, and 43 INT in 9 seasons, one less than Dalton. So however you want to carve it up, Dalton is probably the best QB the Bears have had on their roster since Cutler. Trubisky's best year would've been Dalton's 3rd worst, so there's that.

Bears sign Blackson, rotational guy on line. I hope he is not a Hicks replacement.

Unless we get a real QB or some other type of impact player, this will go down as the worst offseason in franchise history.

Ok, the only new Bears player is Andy freakin Dalton? 1. Tag: Robinson 2. Re-sign: Ifedi, Edwards, Bush, Santos, and O'Donnell 3. Sign: Dalton That's our offseason so far. Compare to the bottom dweller Lions: 1. Trade: Goff, Brockers 2. Re-sign: Okwara 3. Sign: Jamaal Williams, Tyrell Williams, Josh Hill

Because other teams know the Bears are up against the cap and may have to release him anyway. The problem is a cut does not get compensatory compensation, so could lose Fuller for nothing. If that happens, I'm not watching another game until Pace is gone.

The hits just keep coming:

This may be the worst offseason in the last decade, and that is saying a lot. If they don't get a real QB, this is going to be an absolute train wreck.

My guess is it will be Mac Jones, I don't know why, maybe it's because I live in Alabama, but something tells me it will be him with Pace trading up to something like 12 or 13 to get him.

I can only hope this is a smokescreen like Pace did with Glennon. Signs Glennon, says he is the starter, then trades up for Trubisky. The plan worked until he traded up and drafted Trubisky.

Now they are talking about cutting Fuller. This is embarrassing, the Lions are doing better than us. They just need to fire Pace now, why wait?

We paid $10M for that guy.

Ifedi will go back to playing RT, so it wouldn't impact another OT signing to replace Leno.

Dalton has thrown more than 30 TDs one time in his 10 year career (2013) and only one season with a QBR over 60 (2015). He has finished with a QBR below 50 (which means below average league starter) in 5 out of 10 seasons. He is literally the picture-perfect slightly below average QB and only plays above average with great pieces around him.

That's all we can look forward to. With COVID, and the lower cap, I think they didn't want to bring in a new regime. So they will get a fresh start with a high draft pick in 2022 because this is a 6 win team with Dalton or Foles at QB.

He signed a $3M - 1yr deal with Dallas last year, while we traded a 4th for Foles and picked up his $24M contract. Now we pick up Dalton a year later and pay him more than Foles? Please let this be as a backup and we are trading Foles. It just seems to pay the guy triple what he got last year is quite excessive for a cap-strapped team.

FML:

Trubisky is the top free agent QB.

CB Shaquill Griffin a three-year, $44.5 million deal with the Jags

Davante Adams had 18 TDs, ARob had 6. ARob is a #1, but he is not top 5.
