Volkerball would you rather have Carr+Cooper or Teddy+Leonard?

This isn't even close.

Yes. The real opportunity to have gotten Teddy was when the tradeup with the Seahawks was happening.

What did it cost the vikings?

A 4th. It would've cost the Raiders the pick they used on Jelly.

So that makes it even more "not even close"

And even that's assuming quite a bit (Chicago and NO stay injured, Oakland can't cope with a 1 EST kickoff). Anything past that and you need to really convince me. Unless someone implodes hard, maybe bad Philly will show up for Thanksgiving.

Lol, the Raiders just won a game in that time zone.

Possibly, you could be right. That's why I said "might not have been that special" instead of "wouldn't have been." I just have to wonder with how much stronger and faster every defender is if he'd be less effective. If you could bring the 85 Bears defense through a time machine to 2015, you'd probably rather have the scrubs the Bears have now. But who knows.

Those guys were products of their times, though. Luckman could have been one of the greats if he was born today because he'd have modern training techniques, not eating 5 packs of cigs and a fifth of JD a day for a part time job after spending four years fighting in the Pacific.

Exactly, which is why I'm saying you have to judge them for the success they had in their era, not who would be the best nowadays. The answer to the second is almost invariably the player with the latest training techniques, most advanced diet, etc.

i.e., Luckman and Payton are the best QB and RB in Bears history, regardless of whether they'd be successful in this era on paper.

yeah, we're in total agreement but I've seen TFF basically discount anyone before certain dates because they don't measure up to today's athlete. Hell, you did it right here-

Nail Rat posted:

Walter Payton might not have been that special in today's NFL(and none of the 85 Bears defense guys would have, for sure)

We don't know that.

Ya know, I've never actually blamed Brady or the Pats for this, it was a lovely interpretation of a bad rule, all on the loving refs.

Bears actually have a pretty decent defense, at least better than the final scores indicate. If Cutler plays tomorrow and they can keep his pocket clean, it'll be a tough game for the Raiders who I still think are a 6-10/7-9 team. Oakland is getting Jelly Ellis(All Rookie team DL) back and the Bears are missing a couple o-linemen, including their LT, so Cutler needs to be at 100% or it's going to be a long day as the Raiders found their pass rush last week.

If I keep saying it, it's gonna happen

It would be awesome if you guys get Goff
