For a lot of the early years, it seemed like anytime we had a choice between two players, we picked the wrong one.

The best examples of that of course are taking Kerry Collins over Steve McNair and Tshimanga Biakabutuka over Eddie George.

Steve McNair was one of my favorite players of all time I’m a *little* younger  so I don’t remember us passing over him smh. The first draft I kinda remember is the Julius Peppers draft and that’s mainly because my brother and him were friends/I’ve always been a big UNC fan.

Gettleman Era - 4/6 good

Hurney Era - 2/15 good players (Kalil and Chinn). 3/15 meh guys (Foster, Marshall, Jackson). Rest Sucked.

Pre Hurney Era - 5/7 good players

We kept that one piss stain as GM for 13 years...

It's that one long stretch in the middle that kind of taints the rest of it.

Biakabutuka was my favorite player as a 5 year old. Granted i didn't know anything at the time but it did seem like he had the raw talent to be great.

I have a very vivid memory from that draft. It was Bill Polian being asked whether he had any concerns about Biakabutuka's durability.

His answer? "None!"

DeShaun Foster is kind of a dilemma for me.

I'd certainly never say he was a bad pick. He had some really good years with us and I think if we'd have relied more on him than Stephen Davis in the Super Bowl, we might have won it.

But he was picked ahead of Clinton Portis, primarily because the son of one of his college coaches was on our staff at the time if I recall correctly.

Was that the right choice?

Great question. DeShaun was a beast at times. We had Davis or DeAngelo while he was here so he never had to be a workhorse. He had some historic runs though. I'd have to go with no regrets on that one.

Hurney error - 1/15. He's not having Chinn.

I was bracing for the worst, but as others have said, it's not as bad as I thought initially lol. It seems like we really got our poo together bradberry and up 

I've followed the Bears since early in life and also watched JR bring the Panthers to the QC, the Panthers have been a better franchise by far.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By LegioX · Posted

      Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
