bears fans booing their team down 4 in the 3rd quarter is not a good look.
Nope, but in their defense they haven’t had a real QB in decades, they apparently can’t/won’t attempt 50+ yard fields, two delay of game penalties on one possession, and they look generally disorganized on offense. Can’t say I don’t understand the frustration.

Yeah that's the same. Trubisky is surrounded by talent and still is nothing more than mediocre. Allen had the worst surrounding cast in all of football last year
Yeah, our D wasn’t bad last season, but the Bears D was elite and made big plays. He benefited greatly from that as well.

Trubisky's stats are improving and last year he was the 19th rated passer to Josh Allen's 30th.
Are we preparing to move on from Allen fairly soon too?
No, but I see nothing in Trubisky that indicates the potential to become an elite starting QB. Allen is only entering his second season while Trubisky is entering his their season. The third season is a time to prove it for a young QB’s, and I could easily Trubisky regressing this year.

This Bears team isn’t going anywhere with this offense. The defense is elite, but elite defense doesn’t win titles anymore imo. They’ll be moving on from Trubisky relatively soon.

I've read through some of the posts regarding the potential seriousness of the situation, but I'm pretty sure the host could smell the booze from a mile away. Made me laugh, but to each their own. I understand where they're coming from; just don't share their perspective.
Exactly, getting drunk before going on tv and drinking way more than you can handle seems more logical than showing up the flu.

Hope no one actually believed the flu sorry haha.

So, if he was really dehydrated from the flu, why was he doing a meaningless television interview ?

We all have our favorites but I'll trust the specialists. My only beef with the "god" that is Beane is him not getting anything for Shady last year or this offseason.
Backs don’t get much these days, but something still could have been had some point. I find it hard to believe they haven’t been down on Shady for a while. I really doubt that parting with Shady isn’t something that hasn’t thought of before. This sort of cut doesn’t just happen out of nowhere.
I don’t understand why they didn’t trade him last off-season prior to the rebuilding year. Keeping a high priced vet through a year they knew would be a struggle only to cut him the next season is confusing to me.

So The Bills are carry 4 TE's then? Wow! In the 80's and even 90's, a lot of teams just carried 2.
Yeah, but how many TE’s dated the owner’s daughter back in the 80’s and 90’s?

I could move to Nashville and do a better job as a country music star than ESPN does with college basketball recruiting. And I HATE country music and have less musical ability than anyone I know. They are embarrassing themselves and should just abandon it entirely.
But they are too stupid to realize that.
No worries, no musical talent necessary to be a star in modern Nashville.

The fans booed him because they were drunk at a preseason game. Honestly this whole story got out of hand. It might have been a few loud fans. Yeah there are a few a-holes in a large crowd of drunk people. Who really cares
Right, and the talking heads/some players seem to act like it’s a pressing world issue. Getting booed as a millionaire is not one of the more cruel things that happen on this earth. Yet the pundits are using this is an example for the decline of western civilization.

Sometimes enough is enough and there isn't as much planning involved as you think. It might just be , I've had it. Pissing blood, concussions, surgeries and now this and I'm only 29. I don't need this, no matter how good I am.
Exactly, I don’t think either Luck or the fans are bad guys in this situation. Everyone wants to take a side. Fans reacted how you’d expect, and Luck did what’s best for him.

This. And if I was a Colts’ season ticket holder, listening to Aaron Rodgers and Colin Cowturd talk down to me for booing, I’d ask for an apology when the truth comes out. Yeah, $4000 isn’t much money compared to Aaron’s 100 million, but it’s a big investment for Average Joe. Luck was complicit in Irsay’s profit motive...it will get leaked in the next two weeks. $21 million to delay his announcement. Book it.
I love how paying fans are treated as if they no right to boo. Fans can boo whoever they want within reason. Do a bunch of drunk middle aged men really hurt players feelings that bad? If I’m Luck I have 21 million reasons not to care who’s booing me.

If he had made the announcement earlier, like maybe before TC started would he have still gotten all that money? Because if not, then this kinda makes sense. I can also see the tickets sales getting done first before the announcement.
It does seem like weird/bad timing for him to do that though, I'll definitely give ya that.
Yeah, that’s the one part of the booing that players and sports media don’t understand. The Colts just went from playoff contender to a bottom feeder. I wouldn’t be happy if I spent money on season tickets. The dude just says see ya, halfway through preseason. Luck is set for life, and should be able to make whatever choice is best for him, but I do somewhat understand the frustration.

I haven't read the thread, and I have no information. But when I hear Clowney, multiple teams and the Bills, what I'd like to see is Clowney goes someplace else, Shady goes to Houston and the Bills get somone's first.
Clowney doesn't strike me as a McD guy. Love Shady, but if I could get a first for him, I'd do it.
I agree, but I don’t there is any chance Shady gets a first.

No QB ever had his line purposely not block like he did, either (Chargers game). That's a hell of a way to begin one's career.
I hope Peterman secures a job and I hope he has a successful career.
Who’s to blame for Peterman looking like the worst QB of all time in every other regular season game he played? It’s one thing to play at a below average level, but it’s another to be a complete
disaster. Hypothetically, if an O-line decides not to block at all it’s up to the QB to throw the ball away or take sacks. Once you throw more than a couple picks, you’re making poor choices with the ball regardless.

i was ( not knowing about the research mcbeane put into allen) ...an advocate for staying put an drafting rudolph. i was hoping for vita vea and then rudolph followed with washington at wr and then i forget who at lb. so far with vea, i feel wrong , but when big ben hangs up the cleats, i can't see the steelers missing a beat. like the pats, they seem to know how to keep on truckin.
I hear ya, just not sold on Rudolph. The Steelers have been one of the league’s most consistently successful franchises. Historically they’ve had continued success while transitioning from one era to the next. I’m not convinced that will continue once Big Ben retires. Roethlisberger has carried that team on his back the past few seasons. The legendary Pittsburgh D has always been there throughout the years, but hasn’t been strong in recent memory. Tomlin has had the luxury of coaching an elite QB his entire career. There have been plenty of Tomlin doubters, and he’d no longer be with the team if they didn’t value strong continuity. Rudolph wouldn’t be stepping into that great of a situation imo.

for all the crap he gets, i'm willing to bet he ends up having a decent career as at least a backup. he'll get the last laugh....kinda like in a few years mason rudolph turns out to be the best qb drafted in 2018.
Mason Rudolph becoming the best QB drafted in 2018 seems like a huge stretch for anyone who isn’t an OK State fan.

I cannot believe people are actually trying to put that throw to jones on allen in the least..... its frightening to me that there are people like that on this planet.
This has happened to whoever the QB is with every Jones drop his entire career.

You can make an argument that the drop led to the injury. If he holds on to the ball, he'd be in a better position to brace for the hit. Instead, he's flailing for the loose ball and is totally unprotected when he comes down awkwardly.
Awkward is the best word to describe Zay on the field. Nothing about his athletic motion is fluid or smooth. Whether running his routes, or attempting to catch the football, I haven’t seen someone who positions their body in such awkward ways so frequently on the football field.

See I thought the hit to the head only happened because he dropped the ball and fell to the ground fumbling for it. And I'd have more patience for that reasoning if he had ever made a single contested catch in his career. Still waiting for him to hit that milestone.
Yep, that’s why when you’re in traffic you might as well catch the ball. No use for alligator arms when you’re going to get hit anyway. Easy for me to say, but as a pro that’s what you need to do.

I think that was the play where Tasker wanted to blame the sun and not Jones. It was definitely not a perfect pass, but it did hit both hands.
Didn’t some people blame the sun when he dropped that pass against Carolina his rookie season?

Most NFL teams attempt a field goal in that range. It kind of speaks to the possibility their kicking game is still a disaster.
