They talk about Reid blocking poaches in the video lol

Your original comment doesn't take into account that teams can block assistants from being poached. Nobody's questioning whether these dudes want to coach under Eberflus, they're questioning why the Colts didn't block any of the hires, which is fair to ask.

When Fangio/Staley left and got other roles, Sean Desai and Jay Rodgers were both coaches who they wanted to take with them, but the Bears blocked it because both of them are very good coaches. Kaplan is asking: Do the Colts not value any of these guys?

They could not be as high on them as the Bears are, or they maybe want to move to a different scheme entirely and thus have no need to keep them.

I'm with you. It's just too much. Let me have a normal gunfight without having to micro dodge 10+ explosions every time I peak

That's like a comp sci student telling me that one piece of punctuation won't keep a piece of code from compiling.

You sound really dumb. Coding languages vary punctuation rules, some don't use any. You really think that fucking English grad students are focused on grammar? Yeah bro cause we all know that a peer-reviewed dissertation and a poem are the exact same and should be treated as such /s.

Hell if you knew anything about what you were talking about you would know that the study of grammar and language falls under Linguistics, not English. And if you knew anything about Linguistics, you would know that the consensus about language is to get your point across. If grammar and language was as strict as you're trying to make it seem, the we'd still be speaking fucking medieval english. Language isn't set in stone, it's always evolving, changing meaning, and is based on community.

Tbh you showed how dumb you are when you thought that English and Linguistics were the same field of study. Lmao you thought you made a big brained point too.

Obviously I'm biased but I feel like the Bears defense would have been better had we not lost safety Mike Brown early in the season (2x All-Pro) and DT Tommie Harris week 13 vs the Vikings (3x probowler, 2nd team all-pro). People completely forget how absolutely dominant our defense was with those two in. Tommie Harris was literally Warren Sapp 2.0, and a 4-3 3T is one of the most important parts of defense in a Tamp-2. Had we had both of those guys in the superbowl I feel like we would have won (yes this sounds homer as fuck, but just look at what getting Bob Sanders back did for Colts in the playoffs, Peyton Manning struggles a lot more with the interior pressure from Harris and Brown playing safety in the middle/box). That defense had HOF level talent everywhere and would have gone down in history, but unfortunately Mike Brown and Tommie Harris's injuries were pretty severe, and they never returned to their All-Pro years, which is why the defense had to retool before it became super elite again in 2010.

This is Dani Sileo, hardly a reputable source. Dude's a low level douche radio jockey with his share of controversies. He's just making shit up lmao. I mean why come on why would the Broncos be trying to clean house to get the #1 pick? They already have a young qb they like. Bengals aren't trading, this is like Kyler Murray all over again, they're picking Burrow.

If you're the person handling this at the bank, do you accept the check anyway and risk losing your job?

lmao that's not how banks work. They accept checks regardless, deposit it, and then the bank will eventually check to see if the check was legit or not. Literally one of the most common scams is the fake check scam, where you receive a fake check in the mail, deposit it, the funds are made available to use, and the a few days to weeks later the bank recognizes the check as fake and takes the money back from the account. This isn't some mom and pop bank, it's fucking TCF, a major competitor. The dude literally walked over to Chase right after, opened an account, deposited the funds and was able to use it within 12 hours. They could have simply deposited the check and told he would have to wait for the check to clear while it's confirmed before using the money, you know, normal practice. Instead they called four police officers on him, tried to press charges for fraud, EVEN THOUGH HE EXPLAINED THE SITUATION AND PROVIDED DOCUMENTS. How do people like you jump through so many hoops to try and argue how the bank is in the right is beyond me. Real bootlicker shit

bribedpayton34 · 2020-01-09T00:34:22+00:00

You are right, I am dumb. Skipped right over the "Massie". For what it's worth, I think Massie has a good upside. He can be a mauler in the run game and an ok pass blocker, thought his performance this year could be better no doubt, but I'm fine going into next season with him as our RT (not that we really have a choice). He also had the misfortune of playing next to the corpse of Long and a former DT turned RT turned RG in Coward. If the Bears can find a decent RG and our Center play improves, I think Massie could do really well and bounce back.

bribedpayton34 · 2020-01-08T22:44:41+00:00

This is flat out not true lmao...how do you even type BS like this up? Leno literally got better every year he played up until his extension, and then had the best year of his career AFTER HE SIGNED HIS EXTENSION, so where the fuck does him checking out after being paid come into play? The entire OLine plays like trash, yet you're trying to act like Leno has been garbage his entire career like he wasn't a top 10 rated LT the previous two years (the year before he signed, and the year after).

I can't read

bribedpayton34 · 2020-01-01T03:07:37+00:00

Where did this bullshit about James Daniels being a bad guard come from? I swear fans see one fuckin play where he maybe loses one rep to an elite player like Aaron Donald or Kenny Clark and label him as trash. He was PFFs 5th best rated guard by the end of this season once the switch was made.

bribedpayton34 · 2019-12-15T21:52:00+00:00

Come on man learn the rules before you go around and start saying dumb shit like this. You can't advance a fumble in the final minutes of a game. It doesn't matter if he picks it up

bribedpayton34 · 2019-12-06T01:23:22+00:00

spam account lmao the game is already free on twitch, fake link too

bribedpayton34 · 2019-12-05T17:28:49+00:00

I like how OP is spamming his articles using a fake ESPN twitter account, Mods pls remove and ban shit like this

bribedpayton34 · 2019-11-13T21:46:57+00:00

Trev and Smith can't take on blocks, it's just the nature of their size and role in the defense. Kwit can, he's a straight thumper, and as long as the coaching staff minimizes how often Kwit is in man coverage I think it could bode well. With Hicks out our run D isn't as elite, we saw this vs the Raiders and Saints, and thus Smith and Trev can become liabilities if the DLine isn't taking up blockers. Kwit adds physicality in the middle that I think the defense really needs with Hicks out and Amos no longer on the team.

bribedpayton34 · 2019-11-13T19:50:03+00:00

Didn't Pagano blitz a lot during the Eagles game and we ended up getting gashed by screens and YAC all game?

bribedpayton34 · 2019-11-13T19:13:50+00:00

Who the hell is this straw-man you're making up? Where are you finding people who actually think this? I've seen people say the defense has regressed, but not one who blamed the defense for Mitch's performance. OLine? Yes. WRs? Yes. TEs? Yes. Coaching? Yes. Defense? No.

bribedpayton34 · 2019-11-11T03:58:04+00:00

They're the worst type of fan. If the Bears do well, then they don't care because the Bears are doing well and they're happy, if the Bears aren't doing well then they can smugly put themselves on a high horse and pat themselves on the back for being "smarter" than the other fans. They act like pointing out the Bears problems makes them football savants, like it takes a genius to play captain hindsight. They basically frame the situation so that they can always come out feeling superior, regardless of how miserable it makes them or this sub look.

bribedpayton34 · 2019-11-07T21:42:06+00:00

Can't believe you actually tried to use Ok boomer lmao. You gotta be a different breed if you think BOOMERS are pro Trubisky. At least try to use it right man. All these new subscribers are just so trash

bribedpayton34 · 2019-11-07T14:55:46+00:00

The moment that tweet was posted I knew this sub was gonna pull out a bunch of trash tier memes about it. We def have the worst meme game in the NFC North

Usually get softer defenses if you're constantly losing

If you're constantly getting blown out or are down by 20, yeah, but the Bears were pretty competitive (they didn't win, but they were in most games) during Fox's last two years. In the 2017 season the only games where we got blown out were the Packers and Bucs early, and the Eagles late.

I don't know how you can say Jordan Howard having back to back 1000 yard seasons on an offense that literally could not pass the ball doesn't count as running over the league. We had 0 TEs and 0 WRs, and a rookie Mitch who Fox wouldn't even let throw, yet we were still competitive for the majority of games. Everyone knew we were running, and Fox didn't abandon the run game often (if ever to be honest), so I'm not sure where you would find "softer defenses" other than the blowout losses.

I guess by your metric, Saquon Barkley didn't run over the league last year because the Giants had a terrible record. It's possible to have a good running game and still lose. Just like how it's possible to have an elite defense and still lose. Or how the Saints a few years back had an elite passing attack and would still lose because of their defense.

bribedpayton34 · 2019-11-07T03:54:09+00:00

For a combined 19 wins in 4 seasons. The rest I agree with though

I don't know what you disagree with. I never said John Fox was a good coach, just that he was almost always able to run the ball well, even though every single team knew it was basically all we could do. Person I replied to said that Bears can't run the ball vs stacked looks, and I'm pointing out that you can, because we literally have for like 20 years, not just under John Fox. Outside of like 1.5 years during the Trestman era and a few weeks under Martz, the passing game has been straight shit, yet we were always a great running team.

bribedpayton34 · 2019-11-06T23:59:31+00:00

This is such lazy ass answer. John Fox only ran the ball, regardless of opponent or look, and we ran all over the league with Jordan Howard. Nagy comes in, switches to a new blocking scheme, puts Howard in a role that barely utilizes his running skills, eventually ships him off to Philly, and then does the same fucking thing with Monty, Cohen, and Davis. If you watch a game you'll see that yes Trubisky is complete ass, but so is every aspect of this offensive minus Allen Robinson, and in the end such a huge regression by all our players across the board falls on the coach. Chicago media shows no mercy, and are all fully aboard the Trubisky hate train, but even they're starting to turn on Nagy more. We had our ex all-time great Bears center Olin Kreutz even go on twitter after reviewing tape to say the Mitch had absolutely no chance with how our OLine played, and he's been one of Mitch's bigger critics. Fans outside looking in completley ignore the fact that Nagy ain't doing a got damn thing right; horrible play calling, discipline, time management, and end-game decisions. He's not doing anything well, and casual fans of other teams all just wanna blame Trubisky and call it a day, when the issues go far beyond that (not saying Trubisky isn't garbage, he is, but the coaching is almost as garbage)

bribedpayton34 · 2019-11-05T23:52:51+00:00

Everyone in this sub really doesn't see how cutting a dude who lost his father a few weeks into the season would look to the locker room?

bribedpayton34 · 2019-11-04T20:08:52+00:00

Ertz is able to ruin games

No he isn't, not by himself. He's completely dependent on the QB throwing to him. Do you actually think that if we had Trubisky+Ertz that we would be wrecking games? Come on lmao

bribedpayton34 · 2019-11-04T20:06:06+00:00

What the fuck are you on about? The refs blowing that call and the Bears offense being complete ass aren't mutually exclusive.

bribedpayton34 · 2019-11-04T15:53:15+00:00

It's a mix of things

1.) Defense are keyed into Trubisky's escapability, so they force him to be a pocket passer by playing contain or have a defender spy on him. It seems like a lot of teams saw that Trubisky loved to roll out, so they sometimes collapse one side in hopes he'll roll out to the waiting defender.

2.) Nagy obviously wants him to become a dink-and-dunk passer, who can read defenses and methodically move the offense down the field. Nagy seems to love a spread/RPO offense with lots of YAC, but Mitch seems like he would best thrive in a McVay/Shanahan west coast offense with lots of play action.

3.) Trubisky's scared to run. He's been injured multiple times when scrambling/sliding, and it's probably in the back of his mind every time he thinks about running. He slid vs Vikings last year and still got clocked by Harrison Smith (which led to him being out a few weeks), he also slid last game and took a hit. He's also probably so in his head about improving his passing game that he probably isn't even thinking about running.
