rangercal Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 30, 2007 -> 01:27 PM) Wanna calm down and quit crying? I didn't "put words in your post." And the Reggie Bush comparison is just stupid. Hmm, 2nd overall, or 3rd rounder? It's not stupid, the argument is not based on draft round position. You said ALL college football footage is a moot point. There are plenty of 1st rd busts, just ask the Bengals of the 90's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briguy27 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 We now have extreme depth on the D-Line. I think the starting line will be Wale/Anderson, Tommie, Walker, and Alex Brown/Anderson. Hester on O + Olsen + 1 more year for Rex + Mike Brown + Tommie + Walker + NO INJURES = SUPER BOWL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said ALL college football footage is a moot point. There are plenty of 1st rd busts, just ask the Bengals of the 90's. When and where did I say ALL college football footage was moot? I said "college football clips are moot at this point" referring to Dvoracek being a year out of school, coming off a season long injury, essentially meaning it would be comparable to handing a rookie 3rd round pick a starting job right away.

Steve9347 Posted July 31, 2007 Author Share Posted July 31, 2007 QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 30, 2007 -> 11:29 AM) Now we've got a healthy Mike Brown... I've said that many times before... I'm past the point of depending on him and anything we get will be gravy. I love Brown, but depending on him would be foolish and the Bears aren't this year.

Chisoxfn Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Wow, what a move. Dusty becomes a 3 and gets a year or two of experience and the Bears get a guy that starts on damn near every team in the NFL (and is considered the best DT on a handful of teams). Geeze the Bears have gotten a s***load better the last week (adding Briggs back into the equation and signficantly upgrading the Dline).

Jordan4life_2007 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Angelo strikes again...The depth we have on D this year is unreal. Let's just pray we can stay relatively healthy (no season-ending injuries) and get some good years from Brown and Wale. Both those guys played below expectations, IMO, last year.

rangercal Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 WOW. John Clayton was talking on Mike and Mike. They asked him what was the most exciting thing he has seen in all the camps so far. First thing he mentioned, the bears OFFENSE. Yes the offense people. He said Hester was putting on a show in camp and compared him to Steve Smith but only faster. Also talked great about olsen. To see an unbiased point of view mention this gets me a little excited. Honestly, I never expected much from hester except for trick plays. We may have something good here. It's time to get excited about the O. I know all of us are a little worried because of Rex. A quarterback is like a starting pitcher , 1 game you can be DOMINANT, the next completely horrible. Starting pitchers and quarterbacks also can have career years. Don't count Rex out guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex had a decent year in his first full year, and by Bears QB standards he still is way at the top of the list(which isnt saying too much, but still). Rex will have more weapons to his disposal, another year with the same OC and the same playbook, and hopefully a little confidence more than cockiness after having a Superbowl year last year. The premise of the season will still be the same, the defense will do what they do and Rex really only has to manage the game, but the prospects of the offense are really exciting this year. If Rex can turn some of those total stinker games into merely mediocre games, his numbers will be through the roof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, he has been plagued by so many lingering injuries in the past couple seasons. He's an above average DE, and when healthy, he could be one of the best in the game. I'm way more excited about Mark Anderson though. He is beastly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( he of course took time off to fight evil and totally ravage his wife sexually) If Rex can roll out of the pocket without falling over, set his feet and fire the ball accurately..... he's going to be a pro bowler and the bears will be contending again. Have some faith in Rex..... Rex is not only a talented Quarterback, but he is going to be the most prolific Passer in Chicago Bears History.

Kyyle23 Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 i dont know if any of you heard JA on the Boers and Bernstein show yesterday, but I have never heard that guy laugh as much as he did with those two. It was odd to hear him when he isnt on the defensive. B&B asked him about the upcoming team, JA said that Garrett Wolfe is who he foresees as his steal of the draft. He also said that if he hadnt been in Tampa when Warrick Dunn was drafted, he may not have felt that way about him, but he sees alot of Dunn in Wolfe.
