Between this and the way Campbell talks about Davis, it makes me wonder if it may turn out next year that the roster wasn't actually as bad as it seemed, and Patricia was just a spectacularly terrible coach.

the most success they ever had with davis was making him rush the passer and he seemed to always have problems in coverage/reading the play/not overpersuing, i wonder if a different coaching staff might have actually tried to just swap him to olb

I honestly think this will be true. I'm not saying they'll be significantly better, but I do think that bad coaching makes everything look terrible.

It was a hallmark of the Patricia era that the team would keep trying to do things we simply weren't good at (run the ball) while ignoring the things we were good at (passing), so it would not surprise me in the slightest if this extended down to how they coached the individual players.

In fairness, that describes most* NFL coaches. To find a coach who will change "their system" based on their players' strengths (vs. just get different players), you almost need to go to the college/high school ranks.

*Belichick being the notable exception.

Could easily be bullshit but lol if it’s true. The Bears listed as one of the teams potentially interested in trading for Carson Wentz.

There are nothing but Bad QBs, but there are a ton of teams with worse than bad QBs so the bad QBs are infact just mediocre qbs.

consolation prizes for missing out on the best available young qb in nfl history (watson) except the consolation prizes for missing out on the bugatti are a pinto or a ford explorer with two wheels missing

This is a good analogy cause of how many coaches think they could fix them up but just make a bigger mess like many amateur mechanics.

Oh fer gently caress's sake. I mean, okay getting Prescott was a pipedream because the Cowboys can just franchise him and keep him off the market, but Wentz? WENTZ? THAT'S the Pace/Nagy ploy to not get fired? God, I hope that report is wrong, but it feels so much like the Bears that it's probably right. :suicide:

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

Hmm, maybe the Bears shouldn't have let Pace go after yet another bad QB in an effort to correct the Mitch pick. I'll hold out hope it's not true, but Pace overpaying for a middling QB is very on brand for him.

This is my feeling. It sounds too dumb to be true, but also is exactly the type of move Pace would make.

This is such a beautifully Bears move, I'm honestly getting a bit choked up.

Every time I think they can't Bears it up, they find a way to go above and beyond what I thought was possible. I'm salivating at the details of the trade that is 100% going to happen now. First and a third? More than that? It's gonna own

Keeping Foles and Mitch there for a good old fashioned 3QB battle that Trubisky again wins after the first couple weeks. Every year add a new quarterback and then give the job to Trubisky until you collect them all!
