I went to the Bears message board and I just need to thank @SDS for not allowing threads to be started during the game. 
 

It’s an absolute ***** show over there. Every random thought is a new thread. It’s like me in 2009. 
 

I think they’re upset, but I think they’re happy. Who knows. I’d avoid it.

Chicago should be moving heaven and earth to try to be the team that gets Watson if Houston actually does trade him (which I don't think they will).

Omg, they should have drafted him to begin with. Dummies

Seems that cat from the Saints has a way of getting under the skin of the Bears receivers.

And his own teammates. That’ll happen when you spit on folks, poke them in the eye, take shots at their knees, and taunt anyone and everyone.

What'dya think, kids?


Funny how they obviously don’t want to highlight the unsportsmanlike stuff on the kids broadcast, so we had to flip back to CBS to see wtf happened.

Agree 100%. TBD really stands out among other team boards for keeping things clean with a single game day thread. I also find the navigation is way more intuitive here.

I know tons of them but then again I live in the Midwest 

Out of the “old” QBs ... how would you rank their arms currently? Just curious, I think I would go...

Brady

brees 

rivers

ben

 

rivers was really good yesterday I thought but his arm is not there 

I think that’s fair. Brees and Rivers have similar arm strength at this point imo. I’ve been impressed with how Rivers has been able to work with his arm, while I think Brees has struggled to make plays downfield with his poor arm. Rivers seemed to connect on some deeper throws that Brees doesn’t have in his repertoire anymore.

Helluva game to get kids interested on Nickelodeon 🙄

Never use the Bears in an attempt to introduce football to someone. Literally at no point in their history have they been a team I’d use to showcase the sport.

I don’t know that I’ve ever met a Bears fan. 

 

They are a weird team.  Usually large TV markets have nationwide fan bases but I agree, the Bears don't have a ton of fans out this way in the PNW.  The networks love them though, so they must pull in ratings.

 

I feel like their fanbase has more in common with the smaller market rust belt teams (CLE, DET, CIN, etc) than teams like the Giants, Eagles, Rams, etc.

I just think they’ve never had enough sustained success to attract bandwagon fans who aren’t raised in the Chicago area. I’m sure in the mid 80’s there were people sporting Bears stuff around the country, but that success never reappeared. Teams like the Cowboys had runs in the 70s and 90s, while the Steelers are always in the mix. That’s how you get fans across the country with no ties to the team.

One thing I really like about the Bears is the GSH on the sleeves for George Halas. I thought the Bills should’ve done that after Ralph passed.
