While not blaming parkey probably seems high minded, where would so many of the dominant playoff teams be if their kicker missed the last kick of the game? Patriots aren't patrioting so often that's for sure. Ravens aren't ravening. Bears don't get to super bowl in 06. But nobody in those games said "well if the patriots did this prior then they wouldn't have need the kick"

The difference between the Eagles being super bowl champions last year and the falcons beating them 16-15 at their stadium was a failed goal line pass. Yes, I too would like the bears to have done all the plays that work and none of the things that don't, but sometimes the other team plays well too, and in a close game the thing that happened last went against the bears.

Because they had an extra spot available with Burton's inactive, and felt if multiple injuries struck he'd be better than a player out of position, but not better than a healthy deon bush.

I think the Eagles are good, and still have the best offensive/defensive line combos in the game that finally got healthy, and in a close game they had enough breaks go their way to win. Yeah, the defense should have tackled better that last drive. Yeah, the eagles should have had the deep safety help on that last drive to prevent the bears from driving easily to their 25, but they didn't and then a kicker missed a kick.

Damn feels like Parkey lining up for the GW kick!

That said, never been happier with Trubisky. That drive to lead them to FG position was last box to check. Issue bears had was every other team with kicker problems cut bait before bears knew issue wasn’t correcting itself (Detroit). Pace has had a real dumb policy of never really bringing competition against his kickers. Needs to stop, even if you bring in Gould. Also Allen Robinson is good, don’t spend anything on a WR.

I agree with this. Watson has worst oline of any QB not named manning.

Really tough. Feels like eagles forced bears to their game and bears can’t do same.

Notice how on 3rd and goal from the 1 the chargers just got stuffed. Just keep that in the memory bank for if a “cute” play fails at a distance like that that running is not an obviously successful play.

Man I hope we win. Not ready for their season to end.

I think everyone thinking their team isn’t Bryce’s first choice is a Boras play.

That’s fantastic news on tulo/yanks

Sox could still bring back Avi
I’d take Avi over all three of those.

Pending White Sox Move? (*May contain partially digested news)
I don’t think flips will ever be lucrative on their face, requires the luck they hit which is probably still worth it. It’s one of the reasons I’ve not been thrilled with Sox player choices on flips (relatively maxed out, older hitters and older pitchers who lost their prospect shine).

You couldn’t even make it to the end of your own post before realizing your point wasn’t good.

Dang Yankees fans went from agnostic in the beginning to starting to panic. Very enjoyable.

Lol it was even better then that. He tried to push off a report he just read on twitter as his own, when it turned out to be false he tried to delete his tweets before changing his twitter name to Ralph and removing the image so it was just an egg. It was truly hilarious. Can’t believe he has a job.

Yankees sign Adam Ottavino: 3yr/27m
The only one I don’t see as likely is Madson.

Well, I disagree. I feel like you are assuming it’s 10 years, 250. If it’s 7 years 240, and gets philly to go 8 / 275. You are the well on your way to 300

Could be. Maybe didn’t expect it to blow up and is worried about compromising who told him.

It’s a number to shop around, one low enough to entice two their bidders to top it, and then shop back to the white Sox.
