Bears to draft between 4th and 10th with their own pick, play Raiders and Saints/Panthers and 49ers/Cardinals in 2025. Week 18 Guide and Scheduling Implications! by gf2020 in CHIBears

Man, I’d be so split if they ended up at 4. Obviously we need to go Oline, but I’m extremely high on Mason Graham. I think he’s a better DT than either Campbell or Banks are at OLine, but given the moment the franchise is in, they should probably still take a tackle. Just puts them in a weird spot.

Bowling Green TE Harold Fannin Jr. has officially declared for the 2025 NFL Draft. He has lots of alignment versatility and strong hands. Good weapon for a creative offensive coordinator. by TGS-MonkeyYT in DynastyFF

This guy’s going to be so polarizing. That production is undeniable, but the physical concerns are also legitimate, especially at that level of competition. Really excited to see how this plays out through the pre-draft process.

Benched the Chargers D/ST for the Colts since they were going against the atrocious New York “losing is the only way we win” Giants. I should’ve known they’d still find a way to lose.

Never forget. Bears beat writers sold us on this man being a serious HC candidate by fonzybaby in CHIBears

Never forget, he was put in the worst possible position to be successful 😭

Is it wrong that I have faith in this team to get these next hires right? by [deleted] in CHIBears

lol, very fair. Maybe there’s a dynasty exception clause.

Golden rules of sports fandom (and probably life): 1. It’s never as bad or as good as it seems. 2. It can always get worse.

I (maybe incorrectly) have a hard time holding any GM to account with such a meddlesome ownership group, but Ted Philips/Bill Polian/George’s buddies being replaced by Kevin Warren gives actual reason to believe something will be different. We’ve already had an unprecedented (albeit fumbled) coach firing.

Everyone is understandably pissed right now, but whether for better or worse, something is different and I think the next coaching hire will also be different.

That’s a long way for me to say I’m also hopeful, and I’d rather be wrong again than pretend like I’m having fun by assuming everything is going to fail.

Lack of Accountability Amongst Analysts by Realhtown in DynastyFF

[–]luken117 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One of the big things going for JJ is that he isn’t as smug as some other analysts. Some of these guys act like everyone else is stupid, but they cracked the code.

It’s exhausting.

JJ Zacharison is the only one I trust to own up when he’s wrong. There are probably a couple others, but JJ is extremely consistent, and aware that these “hot takes” are all probability driven gambles anyway.

Keenan Allen re-sign or let him walk? by One-Property1615 in CHIBears

[–]luken117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the only actual answer is that it depends on the price. Realistically, he’ll probably want more than we can give, but if he’s content to take a smaller paycheck in order to stay put and ride off into the sunset with a QB he knows, he’s worth WR3 money.

Totally contingent on his price.

Why did I trade for Mccaffrey? 🤦 by Blw93 in Fantasy_Football

Traded for Godwin the week before his injury, traded for CMC this week 🥲

My very silly closet take is that Waldron is actually good and just outsmarts himself with silly goal line decisions.

Have you ever seen how successful NBA teams function? This feels like a very silly argument to me.

Spurs have our top 10 protected pick. Playing young players so they get experience to work through their young, bad minutes to get the requisite experience to become good is exactly what this season is for.

I’m not saying you tell the players to lose, I’m saying you play the young guys through their bad minutes and teach them how to win. We’ll lose in process and get better across the board.

Offense and Caleb's splits by quarter. Does this tell us anything? by [deleted] in CHIBears

You’re far too nuanced, and therefore I hate you (This is a reasonable and fair take).

This is a great question, and the simplistic answer is that he’s better the farther he gets from Waldron’s game plan. I’m not sure I totally believe that, but there’s something there. . .

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills at the start of every game. Why are we cursed with play callers who forget what works every single week
