Seeking6 Posted August 8, 2023 Report Share Posted August 8, 2023 So Kareem Hunt was visiting Saints and now headed to Indy for a visit. Something to keep an eye on for sure. No JT at camp today and this move isn't a coincidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing but my opinion here but I think signing Drake and maybe Hunt has to do with JT and Moss being injured and not necessarily because of contracts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) I’m in Chicago and the irrational exuberance for the 2-15 Bears is breathtaking. It has spread like wildfire. I was at a barbecue and I kid you not several legitimate fans think Super Bowl is on the radar. Not that they are a year away from being a year away, but literally now. This is not an isolated thought. Fans literally roll their eyes and mock the Lions, who won 8 of the last ten, as if the 1985 difference between the franchises matters in the here and now. I get that the NFC is the JV and it gives the fans of all the also-rans some hope, but this is out of control.

All my Chicago buddies are cautiously optimistic but somewhere around the 10 win mark and make playoffs is our ceiling. Anything else would be unrealistic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 Wasn't sure whether to throw this in here or college thread but for those with Netflix. Give the Johnny Manziel documentary a watch. Pretty good stuff. Won't give anything away yet but man some of the stuff those around him had to do to keep that train running was surprising.

I wouldn’t touch him with a 10 foot pole. Big year for him to prove it. He’s got legit weapons. Can he drop back on 3rd and 11, anticipate a receiver open, and throw him open for a first down? If he wants to be mentioned with Hurts and Lamar, he’s going to need to get past “see Spot open, throw Spot the ball”. Right now he’s sitting on a 2-15 record, good for the first pick in the draft. They added good talent around him. Jordan Love, on the other hand, is probably the biggest mystery in the league. No hype coming out of GB.

BGleas Posted August 12, 2023 Report Share Posted August 12, 2023 I think people are just assuming Justin Fields is going to make the same leap this year that Jalen Hurts made last year. The difference is that Hurts is an animal in terms of work ethic and he also played on arguably (not sure there's much to argue against though) the best roster in football. I see the Bears improved, but not a massive Super Bowl contending leap. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
