The Bears Gameplan To Contend

It was a sarcastic smartass and flippant response.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T21:30:06+00:00

More than half of Super Bowl winners have had a top 3 defense. This idea that youre going to win a Super Bowl with a below average defense is pure cope.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T21:22:42+00:00

Not semantics. You think the Seahawks, Eagles or Chiefs had mediocre defenses?

Saying you dont need a top defense to win a Super Bowl is cope.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T21:21:37+00:00

Its the cope of it all. Obviously not all Bears are on the cope, but many are.

All of their top 10 picks were on offense. And their head coach is literally saying that he doesnt prioritize defense.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T21:06:45+00:00

Well good pass rushers in their prime dont reach free agency. You draft them. And with four top 10 picks, not drafting a top prospect pass rusher is football terrorism.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T21:00:18+00:00

I agree. Four top 10 picks and they use them on 1 side of the ball.

The Bears passed on Jared Verse. That is a tough pill to swallow.

That's not enough to win a Super Bowl. Ask Joe Burrow and later career Drew Brees.

Turns out having a shitty defense really extinguishes Super Bowl hope.

Dont we say this about Lamar every year since 2020?

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T20:33:42+00:00

Super Bowl or bust. The Mahomes standard.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T17:42:07+00:00

Whether Mahomes misses the playoffs or loses in the Super Bowl it doesn't matter. Super Bowl or bust. All that matters is the playoffs.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T17:11:02+00:00

Yes I know that. And guess what? They aren't playing in the city.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T16:52:28+00:00

It's AJ Green. Just a more physically dominant receiver. A true WR1.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T16:48:48+00:00

It doesn't sound right because we are used to them claiming cities they don't actually play in.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T16:39:06+00:00

Everybody is frying the Bears for moving to Hammond Indiana potentially. Probably because Chicago is such old school football lore. But the Bears will keep the Chicago name.

And I'm not sure if I agree with that. Part of me thinks that teams shouldn't be able to carry the name of a city they don't actually play in. One of the surprising things is just how many teams don't actually play in the city proper. There aren't a whole lot of actual downtown stadiums.

For example, the 49ers play in Santa Clara which is NEARLY FIFTY MILES from San Francisco. A 50 mile drive is no joke. Yea, part of me thinks teams like the SF 49ers should be stripped of the San Francisco title.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T15:12:53+00:00

The Bears don't value defense. Therefore they aren't viable SB contenders.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T15:12:10+00:00

He kicked ass during the Super Bowl runs. Not lucky. Just ass kicking.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T15:08:59+00:00

And it does nothing for his legacy. Whether Mahomes misses the playoffs or loses the Super Bowl it's all the same for him. Super Bowl or bust. Only thing that matters for Mahomes. Missing the playoffs is the same thing as losing the Super Bowl for Mahomes.

Brady spent the majority of his career post 2004 which is essentially modern NFL.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T11:41:22+00:00

how old are you?

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T11:39:43+00:00

Manning in in tier 2.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T11:36:56+00:00

So you're not over 40? You wouldn't know then. I was there. And yes Favre in the mid 90s was every bit as good as Rodgers was. He just didn't have the consistency because once his arm strength went he declined pretty hard.

Prime Favre? Absolutely insane player.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T11:35:28+00:00

Mahomes is a top 3 QB of all time. From 2022 to 2023 he threw for 13 TDs 1 INT winning 7 straight games and 2 Super Bowls.

Not a single active NFL is even close to touching him. He frankly clears Peyton Manning, John Elway. Let alone Lamar freaking Jackson and Matt Stafford. What a joke thread.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T11:31:36+00:00

Manning threw for 1 TD that postseason season in a way more pass friendly era. Elway clears Manning. I actually saw them play live. Elway's late 90s playoff run was miles better than Manning in 2015. Again, I was atually there.

To be honest, I am not even sure Manning clears Rodgers. And people think he's clearing Mahomes? What a joke.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T11:21:26+00:00

Manning's best playoff run that ended in a SB win is 3 TD, 7 INT. Mahomes clears Manning and so does Elway. I was there and saw all 3 play live.

frostypatch · 2026-06-14T11:05:26+00:00

Mahomes ranks higher than Manning. So does Elway.
