But it's about the clicks! There's no journalism anymore.  It's all hot takes and opinion pieces. 

I'm convinced there is a lane and opportunity for someone to cover the sport with dignity but they would have to put effort into learning the subject matter. They could get good answers if they asked informed questions.

If there is they are an adoration.  I remember when journalists were unbiased and sought out the truth and did honest investigation into their reporting.  Apparently journalism school has dropped that part of the curriculum from their degree requirements.

It's embarrassing listening to the questions they ask.  Mike Kaye was trying to dig in to why McCall didn't play and Reich is like "he did, pay attention" I used to hate Gantt but he's the only one who seems to be able to speak in complete sentences. Unlike Person for example, who was always like "can you say a few words about <insert subject>" Just so lazy.

Gotta make money and reporting the facts doesn't do that anymore. 😞

Those assholes. How am I going to get my episode of whiny beat reporters. 

i honestly just want to be able to hear what the press is asking the coaches and players. Most of the time we have to guess what they asked based on how the players and ocaches respond.

FYI... Sports journalism is entertainment journalism. Clicks are king. You can spend a month writing a long form insightful article and no one will read it. A 5 minute hit piece? That will have traction.

 

It's not the fault of the reporters, they have to publish what people want to see.

 

I blame the ever dwindling attention span of the public.

    • Yes, he's a tier above them, but you also touched on the money side of it.  With T-Mac locked in as our #1 on a rookie contract for a few more years, I'd much rather use that money that would be needed for DJ on our defense and develop Coker into our #2.   Especially given his contract situation as an UDFA, as his contract is up at the end of this year but we can keep him around for a 3rd team controlled year on the real cheap.  Which means we probably could get him to sign a very reasonable extension this offseason to give him a little more money while giving us a bargain contract for what he provides. DJ's contract is north of $20 million for the next 5 years, why pay that for your #2 WR with the needs we have on defense and you have guys like Coker, XL, and Horn on rookie contracts who very well could combine to be a serviceable 2-4 WRs behind a stud in T-mac? I love DJ and he'd be a great fit on this team as our #2, but the money side of it just makes absolutely zero sense, that's all it comes down to for me on this one. And no, I don't see the Bears wanting XL back in that trade, because they drafted Burden, who is essentially a better version of what XL provides, a player you want to get the ball into their hands and let them go to work.
    • I didnt see that many bad calls in the panthers cowboys game, but the chiefs especially in the playoffs were getting every single call they could get then the refs when it didnt matter would throw a call towards the other teams.  That I believe was the taylor swift effect.   But its crazy just thinking about how easy it is to change a game.  You dont need but a single ref to make a few close calls go towards one team over the other and in the nfl that is the game.  
    • I don't think it's unrealistically blaming Bryce Young......to say has been a reason, sometimes a big one, in why our pass offense overall has been extremely week over the past 3 collective seasons.  I think that bothering anyone, is just being overly invested in some Bryce Young argument.  It's just a reality.
