He may be released soon by the Jets, and the Bears are said to have interest. Would make for an interesting 1-2 punch with Forte.

I'm pretty sure that TJ is 2nd in rushing yards the last 2 years.

I'd much rather see this than LT or Westbrook. He never should have been shipped out in the first place.

I think you guys are forgetting the fact that Tomlinson is a big fan of Walter. Never heard this about Jones, so I guess the choice is pretty clear...

Would TJ even wanna come back? This is the same management to chose Benson over him while he was rackin up 1200 yrs seasons. But I guess when u need a job as an athlete you'll go just about anywhere

Drinky: Ya know people talking about how LT grew up idolizing Walter and saying thats a good reason to sign him.

Did anyone actually say that?

But he didnt say its a good reason to sign him. He mentioned it as an interesting tie to the story.

It seems like one of those things Team Bernstein scream about that didnt really happen (I.E. Luke Harengody is the best big east player ever.)

I'd be happy with that also ... he catches the ball really well out of the backfield, which is paramount in this f***ed up offense we're about to run.

Those guys get worked up about everything, that's there job. I just found the article to be kind of dumb. Like Haugh was pandering to the stereotypical Bears fans who can't let go of the '85 team...
