You know what, let’s fire the incompetent moron assistants. Gosh they sucked!
So you weren't cheering when they finally sh!tcanned Dom Capers?

He'll probably wind up being Hundley's back-up. Or Kizer's.

So what does the Bears cap space look like?
Remember when we signed Corey Fuller to that rich contract that the Bears were forced to match just so he could drop that game clinching INT before Cobb’s TD for the win? Yeah this week they renegotiated that for more cap space which they gave to the safety.
Breaking my heart 💔💔💔 over here.

HaHa is next. 
Fuller is very good. Would rather have had him take the offer.
Mack's Contract Dubbed Bears Worst
He's the highest-paid defensive player in the history of the league, and the Bears have won zero playoff games since they handed him that contract before the 2018 season.
That isn't Mack's fault, but for that money, you have to be transcendent. He has 21 sacks in 30 games as a Bear, which is good but not great. And the Chicago defense took a big step backward statistically in 2019.
What's most concerning is the 2014 first-round pick wasn't even expensive the last two years. But he'll account for more than $26 million against the cap in each of the next three seasons, with Chicago only able to get out of the third year with a $12 million dead-cap charge. Not ideal considering Mack will be 29 next month.
Raiders knew exactly what they were doing when they traded him to the Bears.
If they trade him to Green Bay, the draft picks would've been a lot worse.
Everything works out the way it's supposed to.
TBSS baby....TBSS 
And to think the Bears could have used those picks to move up and snag a better QB.
They gonna try to turn Trubitsky into Andy Dalton? Just sign Andy Dalton.

Dalton was on the board when the vikings moved way up to draft Christian Ponder. Talk about lofty goals!
Well it's really really too bad they didn't draft Dalton.

Ooooh....look out!

The Bears organization is to blame for Trubisquit's failures. They are the ones who sold the farm to move up to get him. I love that we have the Bears AND the vikings organizations in the NFC North!

I saw some surprisingly good assessment of Nagy and the job he's done with Mitchy on ESPN Sux and it was actually pretty spot on.
They correctly assessed Nagy is continuing to fit Mitch's square peg into the round hole Nagy won't admit is there. They compared franchises like the Titans and the Bills who actually use Josh Allen correctly and emphasize his skill set (which is somewhat similar to Mitch's). With Allen, it's using his legs, using the run game properly, setting up high percentage passes, little dump off's etc.
Nagy is trying to make Mitchy into Brees, Rodgers, and even shades of Mahomes with a downfield/deep threat offense. That will never happen.
But as a Packer fan, I love it. Keep trying to make him into something he's not. Can only bode well for MLF and Co.
For as much as I have bitched about the Cheatriots having an advantage in their division, we have benefited greatly over the last 30 years from the bumbling of the teams in ours.
Detoilet/Millen held the torch throughout the 1990's and 2000's, but Chitcago has taken over since. Minny/Spielman has been doing their best (Cousins' deal) to wrest it from them the last few years, but Chitcago/Pace is hanging tough (Trubisky, Mack).

Nevermind.
Who?
#Bears GM Ryan Pace says the team will make a decision on the 5th year option for QB Mitch Trubisky in May.

It's been rumored a lot that the Bores will bring in "real" competition for him. I have no idea if that's someone like Rivers, Bridgewater, Brady, or ____??
They have no first round draft choice again. And Mack's cap number swells to I believe about 28 million in 2020. I think the best shot at making a deep run came and went in 2018. But thanks to a "Double Doink" kicking situation, they shot their load and that was that.
Why I'm glad we resigned Mason Crosby. He was so MONEY in that sad championship game in Seattle.

Maybe Dalton?
For the TBSS "real competition" at the QB position is anyone with a pulse.
Dalton competition for what, 2nd stringer?
Someone has to challenge Chase Daniel. He's tough!
Signing Andy Dalton would be one of the most Bears thing ever. Kinda like making someone breakfast and you present them with a piece of toast with nothing on it.
I'm sure bears fans won't be able to contain their excitement.

Dalton would be the ceiling of someone they'd bring in as a backup. Even then, I think Dalton gives you a better chance to win than Trubisky next year.
If they bring in Rivers or Bridgewater, they might as well just start either one of them from Day 1.
Yup. I have a hard time seeing either Rivers or Bridgewater signing on as a backup.
Hearing from a source Bears trying to get involved with trading for Nick Foles. Bears are all over this QB market.

Source: #Bears are focused on acquiring Andy Dalton or Nick Foles - both veteran quarterbacks who have played for either Matt Nagy or members of coaching staff. There’s a sense in the organization that Mitchell Trubisky should be forced to compete for the starting position.

Graham contract details out and it's basically a one year nine million dollar deal. Also for some reason contains a no-trade clause. 
Best line I've seen in a long time to describe Graham: "When Bears general manager Ryan Pace came up with the bright idea of signing the chalk outline of Jimmy Graham’s career to a two-year, $16 million contract..."
And the rest of the article has several good lines as well!
