The Bears had a ton of cap space and they spent it all on dudes that haven't done much other than tackle. Having money is good. Spending it wisely is better. Do we trust Fitt to spend it wisely?

As a once fitts support and i still think its early and all. But his trading has not panned out and if young is a bust, so was the trade and bu-bye fiits. 

Its sooo bad that many believe herniay is/was better....

We might not have 1st round draft pick but we projected to have $70M in cap space and if we restructure Moton, the number can rise to nearly $90M.  If we make Jackson post June 1st cut, we can save additional $11M.  In 2025, we are projected to have nearly $160M in cap space so we have to spend.

Next year FA market is loaded.  Of course some folks will get franchised but there’s a chance for us to go nuts.

Just leaving it here for some positive vibes.  While we are look like a complete trash, this team is positioned very well to flip this around in a very short period of time.

this would be inspiring if money was the issue 

i could have a billion dollars but if I buy a billion dollars worth of dildos with it does it matter?

unless your Juan’s mom, the answer is no

You can have a dildo monopoly.  You could be Elon Musk of dildos.

Tepper is the owner. We aren’t set for anything other than being a circus.  

This statement made me think. . .thinking what type of business Tepper deals in.  This led to researching short selling.  This topic came up in a thread here on November 7th 2021 started by Squid Game.  Tepper is short selling the Panthers which was the crux of the thread.

 

It would be interesting to see the nuances of the contract of the sell.  It's totally possible if provided for in the details.  Everyone in the thread pooh pooh the notion but. . .

. . .makes you wonder.

It's not an uncommon tactic of hedge funders.  But to do so publicly ? Ruthlessness is a common trait.  This would definitely be ruthless.

Everything hinges on Bryce Young panning out. It always has ever since we made that trade and pick. If he is the real deal we're gonna be fine. If he isn't it's gonna be a rough few years.

We need a new GM and coach. Other teams have pushed their chips in on a QB who went bust (or whom they thought went bust) and survived, and we can too with the right people at the helm. Of course it will take a couple of years, but it is what it is.

      Completely agreed.  TBH, we have had so many great players that are in my favorite list, and I hate to narrow it down to one, but Cam is it.  Which is crazy, because you would think it would be more of the guys I grew up watching, but no.  Cam was the single most impactful player to ever out on a football uniform imo.  And like I said in an earlier post, I always felt a kinship with him in a lot of ways…  the way he was treated and judged for the off the field stuff in Florida and having to overcome all of that and fight show at back.  And although I am not a black man, I have always been welcomed by and accepted more by minorities, and thus, I know what it’s like to be judged by appearances rather than the content of your character and who you actually are.  I know what it’s like to be stereotyped and written off or mistreated for your mistakes.  I know what it’s like to be held to a different standard while your peers don’t have to meet that same standard.  So I always related to that.  And the way he came in and just electrified the whole franchise, man…  I still think about it often how much it sucks that because of how talented he was, our staff out so much on him and that ultimately cut his career short.  You’re right, there will never be another Cam…  I think Josh Allen is the closest thing we will see for a long time, but Allen is not the running threat Cam was.  Cam could run you over or around you.  That was THE absolute funnest time to watch our team ever.

      It definitely needs more specificity than is baked in now.

      The weirdest encounter I had with a pro athlete was waiting in line at security at Mile High Stadium when I used to get the company suite tickets almost every week because I was the only employee based in Colorado. There's a small checkpoint accessing the suites that virtually no one knows about that you can usually squirt right through. I was standing there and looked over my shoulder and there stands John fuging Elway waiting in line behind me.  This was during the The Golden Calf of Bristol season right before he became GM. I just said "They make YOU go through security?" He's like "Yeah, ain't that a bitch. I literally have a statue out front and I gotta go through security like everybody else." I've heard mixed things about him but he was super nice and down to earth with me that day.
