I dunno after listening to Tuesdays game and Seattle on short rest... maybe I like the Bears and the points. Defense might play well and Wilson ain't Wilson anymore.

Hicks out with Covid.

Wilson is definitely struggling. He and Metcalf aren't connecting like last year. That's weird. But can the Bears score? Seattle is surprisingly stingy at giving up points. The Bears are notoriously bad at scoring points. Could be a 13-6 game.

Is Wilson’s finger still an issue?

So we likely see him make a few splash plays in the last game, too bad kind of thought with him and Goldman we had a solid pairing for a few years, but it's gonna end up like a Prior Wood thing.

Goldman is the quintessential guy that Pace paid for a bit of production, and then the guy apparently gave up on football, there are several on the team that miss game after game and are eating up large swaths of cap room with almost no production. Should be several overpaid defensive vets that are traded/cut by the next regime. Finding at least one and likely two consistent DT's will be a priority.

Hicks will likely be a nice situational inside pass rusher somewhere else next year, he will never get in good enough shape to play every down, but he still can make a play or two each game. He is a guy that really was impacted by Nagy's inept offense forcing the D to be on the field for extended periods of time, you could see his impact dwindling as the game went on until he was so out of gas in the fourth quarter that teams were running the ball with impunity.

Hicks had been struggling breathing while taking questions from the press the past 2 weeks. He was really out of shape. I hope he doesn't get a bad case of it.

Did Nagy just give his opponent a decided advantage for the second straight week?

Does he ever want to get another head coaching gig?

Fields is really ______. It's something every week. The Bears should draft a developmental quarterback late in the draft.

But you won't ever be looking for an NFL head coaching job again like Nagy will.

Do they have a third round pick this year? If so, I wouldn't mind them using it on a QB.

I wanted the Bears to take Lamar Jackson in the 2018 draft.

You have to keep drafting QBs until you're sure you have one for the long-term. Fields wasn't good enough this year to show that's what he is. My main concern about him coming out of the draft was his potential for injury given his style of play. That concern has only been amplified during his rookie season.

I believe they do. They may even get a supplemental pick when A-Rob leaves.

I'd like to solve the puzzle.

Those pesky cracked ribs. Rub some dirt on it !

It's an ankle. The ribs are fine.

meaning what?

He's either soft or injury prone. His body clearly isn't ready for the grind of 17 games. The kid has a lot of work to do this offseason.

I really don't want to watch Foles play quarterback. This is frustrating.

Cracked ribs doesn't indicate softness or being injury prone. He's been sacked 36 times this year. That will eventually lead to injuries. Some are on him but not all.

Try giving Fields the leash you gave Mitch. Might take away some of the frustration.

The fact that Ifedi was made captain instead of being cut is infuriating.

Mike North on 1000 just said something like if it were up to him as a new coach next year he's bringing back (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky. Something to that effect.

So...Nas + North = match?
