Offense sells tickets and is entertaining.

They have no big star names. Offense was so great last year that they missed the playoffs.

 

Again what is so special about Detroit?

Week 7 bye and then mini bye after week 10 TNF, not bad. I hate when you get a week 3/4 bye week or whenever they start

God damn they crushed it.

They always do. I’m not sure if I’ve shared this before, but if any of you guys remember there was a 3 year old boy a few years back who they had do the official 53 roster announcement. They made a video and it went kinda viral on Twitter and YouTube and all that. Well that kid was my son Mason, who is now 7. He really did memorize the entire team. We went to FanFest and he was hooked. Well anyways they brought us in and treated us First Class the whole time. It was a great experience for us and my son, and something we still talk about and look back at fondly today as he’s 7 now, and we have another little 3 year old boy. Good freaking times. 
 

Here’s the video btw

Yeah it was a really amazing experience. We live in Texas now, but he did a presentation in school this year about all that.

Miami/Jacksonville are our toughest matchups.

 

Anyone who thinks playoffs are unrealistic needs to looks at that schedule again.

 

We dodged most of the sure L teams like Chiefs/Bills/Bengals/Eagles/49ers.

 

We definitely got one of the easiest schedules of the league.

Yeah not the greatest flex on your fan support. Assuming Nashville is kinda like LA in the sense that nobody really gives a poo about sports. Pretty sure theres like 10 bachelorette parties a day there

Can someone explain why the Lions are playing the Chiefs on opening night?

 

Crazy the hype they get. We beat them with Sam Darnold last year.

 

 

Big city/media market with historically terrible results. Just trying to squeeze money from those fans while they have hope.

thats cool but just know you are in the extreme minority of folks who think they had a bad draft

I’ve seen plenty of C grades for their draft if you want to go by the media. I’d put them at a D personally. Second, and again this is if you want to go by the media, Wright, Dexter, and Pickens were all big reaches based on consensus big boards. Especially Wright being the second tackle off the board ahead of Skoronski and Jones, pretty much everybody had him rated behind those guys. So they passed on a media consensus top 5 player (Carter) to take a consensus 20-25ish ranked prospect at 10 overall ahead of 2 guys at his position that the media consensus had ranked above him. Looking at both the NFL Mock Draft Database Consensus and the Pro Football Network Industry Consensus for reference.

Dexter was a consensus 3rd round grade that they took like 20 spots too soon with one analyst saying he had the worst get off he had EVER seen from a DT. And again, they could have had the top 3 tech in the draft at 9.

So what changed? Why would the Bears be getting good grades for drafting these guys when the media consensus pre draft would have said these were reaches?

I think there’s a pretty large push from the media to make the Bears relevant again, and a big narrative push for Poles being some amazing GM. If you didn’t notice the media shift in how DJ Moore was viewed as a WR the second he was traded to the Bears, I can’t help you.
