It's really not an either-or situation. Anderson wants to start at OLB and the Bears paid him 1.25 million to do it. Blackburn is a back-up who can come in at MLB or OLB, and likely took vet minimum.

Who would I rather have as a back-up? Probably Anderson. But he wasn't willing to play ball contract-wise knowing he was destined to ride the bench.

There's also that whole thing about Blackburn having super bowl experience. An understanding of what it takes to win is something this team has sorely needed after years upon years of indoctrinating our players on what it's like to underachieve and how it's okay to lose.

That would be commendable if he was going to start. If that's the case I wish we could have had Shockey around here for a couple of years since he had 2 rings.

Where some of you who think this is downgrade don't seem to be up to speed is that LB is not a position you invest major resources in

Blackburn is an equatable player to Anderson who, in addition to having ST ability and the aforementioned winning attitude, came cheaper.

Well run organizations don't pride themselves on how many high pick/ huge dollar linebackers they have.

      Is McMillan getting ROTY or is Shough / Henderson going to get it?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      If Henderson just got a concussion and will possibly/probably now miss next week as well, gotta think missing 2 games of stats at this point of the year might knock him out as he was only just entering the discussion the last few weeks anyways.  Same goes for Judkins going down today too, and Dart's god awful game likely removes him from the conversation as well. It will be interesting to see how the voters compare T-Mac and Egbuka if they end up with stats that are nearly identical. Egbuka burst onto the scene and put up the bulk of his stats early in the year when Baker was playing like the MVP front runner.  While T-Mac was just more consistent throughout the course of the full season (ex. Egbuka has 8 games of 42 yards or less, T-Mac has 4 of them, while T-Mac still scored 3 TDs in those 4 games, where Egbuka only scored 1 TD in his 8). It would be a shame if they put too much weight on the final game of the season if that ends up being the division decider, as I think T-Mac has had the better SEASON while Egbuka had a better peak output during that first month or so but way cooled off since. Maybe Warren goes off in the last 3 games (they still play tomorrow), but it does seem to be down to T-Mac and Egbuka right now.

      Mitchell Evan’s put a block on someone that he drove them all the way out of bounds and to the bench. He absolutely destroyed the guy. He’s gonna be a beast for us if he keeps that up.
