I didn't need the Bears to show me this. look around in the entire league...all season, including last season

fixed

Patriots - Gronkowski/Hernandez

Jet - Keller

Bears - Olson

Colts - Losing Clark hurt their offense to the point they almost missed the playoffs, and ended up losing in the first round

Falcons - Gonzalez

Saints - Shockey

Eagles - can't think of his name at the moment lol

Baltimore - Heap

Steelers - Miller

pretty much every playoff team has a big time TE that is a huge part of their offenses.

Cutler had more time to throw in this game alone than any of our QBs had all season (ok, maybe some sarcasm there, but still). Cutler had all day to make throws so it's no wonder why he can go through reads and find his TE.

Every play off team mentioned above allows their QB time to throw, something we didn't do too well this season. Oh and this also helps, all the TEs listed above were 1st round picks (except Gronkowski who was a 2nd and Hernandez a 4th). Hopefully a new coaching staff will make our TEs Jimmy's best friends b/c I think they have some potential.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
