the Bears could sign Ray Lewis in his prime and you'd find some way to complain about it.

would have preferred Kyzir White

still

Chicago guy. Younger guy with 47 starts on an elite defense. Ascending every year

Everyone was sure it was going to be Okereke. I wonder if it means anything for Eberflus not to get his guy

You can sign all the linebackers you want but it won't mean shit until you upgrade this community college defensive line

They have the money to still get White or Okereke

Appears that Poles hated the linebacker group he inherited as much as the o line if not more because he certainly threw a bunch of paper at that group.

You are still incredibly susceptible to the run game, but maybe that doesn't matter in the current NFL, you have two LB's that can cover and close on short passes which allows you to play more base Cover-2 and drop you CB's, but of course if you don't generate any pressure it will not matter because good QB's will just wait for the deeper routes to develop.

Heard a Buffalo guy talk about how Edmunds is not real physical at the point of attack, but it would seem a 4.5 6' 5" 240 pound guy is a bit more effective hitting the A gap than a 4.5 6' 230 pound guy.

This guy really sucks. I guess going from behind the best Dline in football to the worst really makes a difference.

The free agent linebackers had 20+ tackles. Of which 15 were solo.

Tackles is such a meaningless stat. Most were 5-7 yards beyond the LOS. I didn't notice any of them all game.

I thought the Bears were going for some sort "zig while everyone else zags" thing with the off-ball linebacker position, which these days is every bit as undervalued as runningback. Nah, turns out they just have no idea what they are doing.

They’re going with the tried & true build-from-the-outside-in approach.

Yes, because the secondary and linebackers really looked good yesterday. :lol: This team is a joke.
