Probably the toughest thing in all of sports is predicting how a college QB will perform in the NFL. Most scouts had Trubisky rated ahead of Mahomes. I have just seen too many QBs taken in the top 10 of the first round and not just fail but fail miserably. I stopped predicting with Blaine Gabbert. Tall, mobile enough, super fast release, quick decisions, crazy accurate and a can't miss prospect. Granted his first year he was hit more than Ali in his entire boxing career but he never came close to his college potential. And of course Brady went in the 7th round. But ya still have to take a shot at a QB when ya get the chance. Something I know as a Bears fan. Since Favre and Rogers have started in GB the Bears have gone through 51 starting QB's. 51!!! I would make the argument out of those 51 only Cutler was an elite NFL QB. And at least so far, Fields holds the ball longer than Furyk takes to line up a putt. 2 1 Quote Driver: SIM2 Max 10.5* ...

Golf2Much Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 First off: GO BILLS! As one of the Southernmost Bills Fan (living in enemy territory in the Florida Keys), I'm hoping this is the year! Second, this has been a strange start to the NFL year. I'm in a last person standing pool with twenty other participants. After the dust settled on Sunday's week one games there was only six people left! Half the field took Indy (you have to win, so a tie is a loss) and the Bengals. Throw in the Packers, Tennessee and Carolina losses and three-quarters of the players are gone. The good news is that if the loosing continues, we'll have time to run another pool! 1 Quote Ping G400 SFT driver with a Matrix MFS 5 Korean Prototype Senior shaft, 12 degrees Mizuno GT180 3 wood, with a Tensei CK Blue 50 gram senior shaft Callaway GBB Epic Heavenwood, with a Mitsubishi Diamana 50 grams senior shaft Ping G 20.5 degree 7 wood, with a stock Alta 65 gram senior shaft Ping G hybrid 5 (26 degrees) with stock Alta 70 gram senior shaft Ping G30 irons 6-W, Yellow dot with graphite Fujikura EXS 60i R2-Flex shafts Edison wedges: 50 degrees, 55 degrees and 60 degrees, 2 degrees up with KBS Tour Graphite A flex shafts Putters: L.A.B.

chisag Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 ... One of the things I find interesting about fans and even more so reporters, is giving past attributes to a current team and comparing them to previous seasons. As a Bears fan it is almost a prerequisite for many. "The Bears always __________" simply does not apply to a new coaching staff and a roster with well over 60% new players. Many of those players were not even alive when "The Bears always _________". Can't score in the red zone with Nagy and Trubisky has zero to do with Fields and Eberflus. I think this is what makes the beginning of a season so much fun. Finding out what this years team is all about. We have already seen some big upsets so in the next several weeks we will find out who is the real deal and who just had a really off/on week. 1 Quote Driver: SIM2 Max 10.5* ...

Soooooo True! 1/2 the Hawks OLine is rookies or 2ond year guys, our corners are rooks, and Geno! Haha plus a new defensive coordinator and a one year in offensive coordinator- my season is already a success no matter what happens, because we beat Russell Wilson, haha now don’t get me wrong, our chances of a good season are low. But, if we show growth from the kids and get a decent draft, we could have a great next decade. Plus I’ve got the Mariners tearing it up too, so I’m kind of in a great place sports wise… gitterdun!!!

Sluggo42 Posted September 14, 2022 Author Share Posted September 14, 2022 Ok, ok, I’ve finally come down from the Bronco win, and able to put it more into perspective. We basically got outgained 2-1, and won by one after a really poor decision of not let your billion dollar QB try to get 5 yards, which they had been doing all night. We didn’t score in the second half and Geno got like 31 yards. Nobody could get open, and we couldn’t run to much either. so it might just be that one victory we all wanted so badly, and we get mauled by SF next week… orrrrr, they watch a lotta film and see why we stunk in the second half, maybe Geno has a good 2 half’s, and maybe we beat the 9’ers again. I think Chisag said it pretty well that drafting a QB first is a ver iffy proposition and many times a later pick becomes great. So I’m abandoning my “suck for Luck” platform, and now want to win every game again. So I will not be upset if we do suck, but will instead just give a nod to reality. But it’s just too hard to not cheer for your team no matter what! 1 Quote MavriK Sub Zero 9* on EvenFlow RipTide 6.0 50g Speedzone 3-wood on Tensi blue S F8 5/6 wood on Aldila NxT GEN MLT R P770 / P790 combo set on Ventus R-6 shafts 5-AW Combo iron set -8,9,per Icon 5,6,7 PtxPro 4-UiHi on Recoil 780 ES f4 Stiff shafts (second best clubs ever) Equalizer 50°, 54°, 60° wedges on Recoil 780 f4 E.A.S. #4 (“Fang” or “Adele”) ProV1x .Org 14 cart bag Adidas Tour 360 shoes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what it means to be a fan. That said putting all your eggs in one QB basket that has been on 4 different teams is a tough road. The Bears tried so many times to find that QB through trades and poor drafts and it is sooooo rare to find a near franchise QB that has played for more than 1 team. I think in todays NFL your QB has to have the ability to basically win the game on their own in the 4th qt when everyone knows they have to throw. Perfect example is Rogers that can fit the ball in a 2 foot window from 45 yds and win the game when the coverage is excellent. I know, few and far between but the teams that have that guy like the Chiefs, Chargers, Bucs, Bills, Bronco's and Packers are always in it til the last whistle. Obviously you know what that is like having Wilson that seemed like forever, so I think there may be an adjustment for your emotions this season. 1 Quote Driver: SIM2 Max 10.5* ...

Sluggo42 Posted September 16, 2022 Author Share Posted September 16, 2022 Ok all you weekend prognosticators- week 2 is on the slate, and the Hawks play the 49’ers in Santa Clara, and rain is expected. Against the broncos and RW, the perfect storm happened and we killed em by 1. im afraid the 49’s aren’t going to be in a giving mood, and it could be a learning experience for our rookie tackles. It will also be our rookie RB Kenneth Walkers first pro action. the Hawks have owned the miners for years for some reason, but they are 9 point dawgs this week and I’m not sure they’re ready for a really good defense and Debo Samuel. But conversely, they’ll be playing trey Lance who struggled mightily last week in the rain. I would take the Hawks and the points, but the pick em league doesn’t use spreads.. oh, and about last nights game, I think the chargers gave it away with the 14 point swing on the pic 6. KC was a lucky winner, but, I bet on them so all is good. But it just shows how one stinking play can completely alter the outcome… Quote MavriK Sub Zero 9* on EvenFlow RipTide 6.0 50g Speedzone 3-wood on Tensi blue S F8 5/6 wood on Aldila NxT GEN MLT R P770 / P790 combo set on Ventus R-6 shafts 5-AW Combo iron set -8,9,per Icon 5,6,7 PtxPro 4-UiHi on Recoil 780 ES f4 Stiff shafts (second best clubs ever) Equalizer 50°, 54°, 60° wedges on Recoil 780 f4 E.A.S. #4 (“Fang” or “Adele”) ProV1x .Org 14 cart bag Adidas Tour 360 shoes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
