The other thing is rugby style tackles are also much more consistent at bringing the ball carrier down. The thing is players want to make this highlight real hit or cause a fumble, and while those are cool and all, for every one of those hits, you have 10 where the tackler straight up fails to make an impact and next thing you know the carrier is 10 yards downfield.

Unless it's brits trying to tackle fijians in the rugby 7s at the last Olympics. If you guys haven't seen that gold medal game it's on YouTube and is amazjng

I can't believe the Bears still haven't signed Roquan Smith, I'm really starting to doubt this Bears team again which is probably a good idea


Thanks my man I was a bit confused at how it all worked but I'll look a little harder next time.

Bears are relying on 6 unproven/returning from horrific injury at their 4 wr (Gabriel, ar15, white, Miller) and 2 te (Shaheen, that guy from Philly) spots, plus a new coach and scheme. This year will have enough improvement and flashes to get people excited but finish last, next year they might sneak into 2nd in division , then return to earth as everything gets figured out

Basically the bears are gonna be the early 00s browns

I'm super excited for the bears to throw tight end screens to unproven guys in a scheme that requires Travis kelce and end up replicating John shoop

Kevin White has had a pretty weird career so far. He could also benefit from a sports psych now that he's finally sort of healthy.

He's gonna go down as a top 5 wr bust. Charles Rogers is the only one worse

Here's my impression of the bears now that they added Mack

*5-11*

Half of last seasons wins plus 4 is the most reliable forecast, which is 6.5 (exactly what Vegas has). This might get them to 7 wahooo

Real talk who are the top 5 defenders in the NFL

It's watt, Donald and mack for sure right? And then a bunch of other guys with arguments for them like Calais Campbell or suh?
