2nd_city_saint787 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 QB Tyler Wilson will be apart of Bears mini camp. I really liked him coming out of the draft. Obviously things haven't worked out in the pros, but I still think hes better than a lot of the QBs in this draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleHurt05 Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 The AFC and NFC West? A good Bears team would be lucky to win 8 games with that schedule. This team might win 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Yeah, honestly may be a blessing. You want to see competitive losses (i.e. not 42-0 halftime games) and some exciting young talent develop. But if we already thought 8-8 was best chance, this will help just keep us lower half and get another chance at elite talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoSox05 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Is Hackenberg really that big of a prospect? Â I could see "suck for Luck", but Hackenberg wasn't all that good last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be tough to go like 3-13 or 4-12 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pettie4sox Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) That schedule is just brutal. Good thing the Bears are not going to be competitive this year. Get that draft position up. Edited April 23, 2015 by pettie4sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipps Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I am thinking the best route the Bears could have taken would have been to get rid of Cutler so they would likely tank. This way you could have still built your defense but you would have been bad enough to get a high draft pick and possible top QB in next years draft. With Cutler and this new defense they are going to be good enough to be in the middle of the pack and for what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Cutler and this new defense they are going to be good enough to be in the middle of the pack and for what? If you can get a top QB, great, if you can't, we could end up far worse as a result of that. It is not easy to find serviceable QB's in this league. I have zero problem with the organization's plan to test Jay out with this new regime who is already knee deep in cleaning up a gigantic pile of poop.
