Not for how much he wants. If Williams does that again next week, Briggs will be in another uniform next year.
-
After seeing today's games, it is evident that they should wait until the season is completely finished before voting. If you think about it, there is no reason to do it with 2+ games remaining with the Pro Bowl being played AFTER the Super Bowl. Urlacher would almost be a guarantee after his last two games: 8 tackles, 1 Fumble Recovery, 2 Sacks, 2 Interceptions, 2 Passes Defended, and a Touchdown. He is now the only player in the league with 4 or more Sacks and Interceptions.

Nice win. If we are going to win this late in the season, at least it was against GB.

From FoxSports: http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/7597496 YES!!!!! Step #1 - Fire Ron Turner - CHECK!

Chris Harris leads the league in tackles and forced fumbles
adam replied to Bears4Ever_34's topic in Bearstalk
I certainly drank the Arch Kool-Aid before the season. I thought that if he was brought back to the Cover 2 with Lovie, that he would excel. Boy was I wrong. The Harris deal was probably a little premature, but with Payne, it was hard not to go with the younger guy. -
Hopefully some of the bench players will get another look/first look. Hass anyone?
-
I would go with McFadden, but yeah, that would never happen. Briggs will go to the highest bidder.
-
If it does happen, I hope it does not affect his return game.

Has anyone ever tried a 5 man defensive front?
adam replied to WheresMyronBaker's topic in Bearstalk
I have seen it before, but I cannot recall which team did it. They only did it on obvious run plays. The biggest issue would be with matchups, and it would seem to leave some huge holes over the middle. Most teams just blitz a LB to give the same effect. -

1. I agree. The money vs production could be used elsewhere. The only way the Bears keep Briggs is if Urlacher's back is worse than expected - or he signs a cap friendly deal. 2. I agree. Olsen needs to see majority of the action, Dez has been solid, but the money could be used elsewhere. 3. 50/50 on this one. Brown is more consistent than Anderson, and the way the DL was decimated this year, quality depth is hard to come by. 4. Agree, save money, and bring in some younger bodies. 4b. Davis' situation would hinge on what happens with Berrian and Moose. 5. Without a viable replacement, this would be a bad idea - but if there is a legitimate replacement, then go for it. 6. At WR, the Bears would need to bring someone in via FA if Berrian and Moose are gone. 7. Getting Turner would be huge. Should be a top 3 priority. 8. For the O-Line, we need quality, not quantity. I would draft only ones that would contribute (first few rounds), then pick up others via FA. 9. I would look at 2 via FA, as long as the contracts worked, otherwise, one at a minimum QB - I would look at every option, keep what we got, draft, FA, or trade - and go with the best solution for this team Also, we need a new Offensive Coordinator.
-
How about Aaron Brooks? The guy passed for 3,500 yds 4 seasons straight. Hasn't played in 2007. Would come cheap, worth a shot?
-
I went OLine, but it will probably be Best Available (which was not a choice).
-
Yep. All the changes/moves they made in the offseason backfired. Some of the biggest moves that backfired were the Smith and Angelo extensions. That started the downward spiral. Add the Rivera departure, then Jones' departure, then add the injuries and you have one helluva bad season. The only saving grace is that the Bears are in the NFC, and with a few impact FA acquisitions, and some solid draft picks, they can be back in the mix next year.
-
That was the Detroit game. Tillman, Vasher, Brown, and Archuleta were all injured.
-
WR would have been a more logical position to select, but like I said in another post, he was probably the "best available". I guess it was a good thing that we did not draft a WR, because it would've been Mike Williams.
-
http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...4&cset=true Somewhat accurate, but I don't agree with "a good team that got lucky in a bad NFC last season".
-
FB is double covered in the flat, Safety over the top, LB underneath. The PLAY didn't work that good.
-
Hass definitely needs to play. Great hands and runs decent routes. Why not?
-
We can go back and forth all day, but I guess it would come down to what perspective you take. These were comments from ESPN, etc about Benson before the draft: We all know he has all the talent in the world to be an elite RB, but when you see these comments from 2004/2005, and we are still dealing with them 3 years later is very disappointing. This was probably exactly what you said, take the best guy available at #4, and they felt Benson was that guy. Hopefully he still can be.
-
Toeaina is a prime example of what the Bears need to do the next 2 weeks. Play guys like this and see what they can do. He seems like a keeper.
-
Wow, Urlacher had more tackles, sacks, interceptions, and passes defended than Briggs. Also, that is going to cost a team some more cash to sign Briggs now. Hester seemed like the only lock.
-
Wasn't' looking like a #1 back? He had 1,375 Total yards from scrimmage that year on a 5-11 team. That is solid production from an RB. He only had one fumble lost that year, and finished the season with back-to-back 100 yard games. Going into the 2005 draft, RB should have been near the bottom for priorities. Especially with the #4 pick. If the draft was strong at RB, then you can normally pick up quality later in the draft. That is actually more of a reason not to draft an RB when that was not a critical need.
-
I agree. I would love to see what he can do.
-
I say the Bears trade for some backup that is not even being mentioned. Someone like Carr, he played with Berrian in college, and would probably be an upgrade over anything we currently have.
