Yes, which is sad. In 1997 the Chargers finished 1-15 with the best defense in the NFL.

I don't care how good this defense is I'll be surprised if they finish .500. Fangio is going to eat this offense for lunch. They're the Jaguars from last year. I don't think that Pace and Nagy get whacked at the end of the season but it could be that bad.

Hampton and OB are en fuego. Turn on WGN radio.

No chance. Fangio is going to make Mitch his b****.

Yeah. I've scaled them back to zero.

This is a very good question. I guess the next question is, does Pace get another chance to draft a QB after missing so badly on Trubisky? This looks like the Bears offense from the late 90s and early 00s tonight.

I'm not even arguing that. There is no evidence that you're wrong.

For the record, I wanted Watson as well. I didn't think that a QB would go top 5 that year. I wanted them to trade down and let someone else take Mitch.

So Pace is Jerry Angelo. Fun.

You can win with an average D because Rodgers is great. He's probably better than Brady but Belichick puts Brady over the top.

I agree here.

I'm a born and raised Bears fan and I think Favre is the most overrated QB in NFL history outside of Joe Namath. Brett Favre was Cutler on Steroids. Rodgers might be the most talented QB ever to play but he got wasted by poor coaching.

This is why you don't draft a QB before you have the coach to groom him in place.

Trubisky hate isn't irrational. Nor is it a "hot take" He hasn't shown enough to warrant the type of support he's getting. There's much more to criticize than to like. The jury is still out. There's not much evidence he's good.

Yes. But this game matters and the others don't.

The odds are much higher than that. You're probably off by a factor of 10. Do you remember how Grossman broke his leg in 2005?

Important players get hurt in the preseason all of the time. QBs are not immune.

What would you have said if Mitch tore up his knee in the preseason and was on IR? That's the other side of the coin.

Ok, are you Bob Swerski or Carl Wollarski? Todd O'Connor maybe?

By the way, I don't think it's impossible to win a championship without a HOF QB. I do think it's impossible to win more than one. The window of a SB winning team without a HOF QB is short, probably 2-3 seasons. I wish teams would take QBs that they like in the 1st round when they have a 28+ year old tier 2 or 3 QB. If they're right, not only can they get an upgrade at QB they can also get a haul for trading a tier 2/3 guy to a team with a really bad QB.

I'd love to work in my field. I have a BS in chemical engineering. It's that I've been shut out. It's way too late now. I graduated 8 years ago and never got a shot. It's their loss. I think being a network specialist would be fun. I like to fix things. Something around that where gaining certifications are relatively inexpensive would be ideal.

I think that Lopez should consider dumping the changeup for a splitter.

Lopez has a 5.00 SIERA. It's worse than his xFIP.
