Except for Jay Cutler. He didn't have a good time that night.

What's funny is that was from like 2010 and the Bears still didn't address their OL.

That game can suck a dick. Poor guy got sacked 9 times in one half. Forced us to start Todd Collins the next week in what was the worst passing game ever. Four QBs combined to go:

22-51, 91 yards, 0 TDs, 7 INTs, 8 sacks, 1.78 ypa, and a 10.9 rating.

I remember him getting up after the 3rd or 4th sack and stumbling toward the wrong sideline for a while. It was pretty obvious that he was concussed long before he got pulled. ******* O line.

And then you went on to see an awful OL for 2 more years. Then got a new GM bc the old GM let it be. Then you drafted Shea McLain.

Then saw the 49ers game this year which was equally hilarious.

I'm gonna laugh so hard when your GM drafts a linebacker in round 1. He's awful.

He concerns me thinking about the back end, he seems like he'll be fine the first 2 years but when his play drops off he'll be too expensive. I can say you would be very happy with him initially though. It's rare to have guys so good vs the run and still get after the pass, and he sets the edge better then most ends/OLBers I've seen.


I think if you let the young guys you have go after the passer and let Spencer do the all around dirty work you'll see big improvements in the defense.

Monomach for GM! Monomach for GM! Monomach for GM! Monomach for GM!

Errrrrm. What? Why are you all looking at me like that? It seemed like a natural time for us to all chant that.

It's amazing how Marc Ross still isn't a GM yet guys like Phil Emery get a chance. Thank God Ross is black. We should have lost him years ago.

Manti Te'o round one, Matt Elam round two, Montee Ball round four, me killing myself.

He can be our backup QB. We needed one anyway. If we trade for Foles to be the next starter I'm going to lose my ****.

Don't worry man. Your amazing coach he hired will bring it all together...

But he had All-Pro talent to work with in New Orleans.

Chiefs met with Bowe and his agent/people to work out a long term deal. That makes me happy. I'd rather keep Albert if I had to choose between the two, but I'm glad they're at least talking to their free agents early.

sign Bowe..Franchise Albert one year to prove his back won't be issue then sign him next year :)

Sign Bowe, Albert, and Colquitt.. trade for Foles, draft Geno. I would be ecstatic if we did all of those things.

[vidae]

The Chiefs are talking to Branden Albert and his people too. They've made it clear they want both back. Yipee.

Him not getting the job in CHI wouldn't have anything to do with him being black. Our owner's definitely not racist. I mean, alzheimerish and ignorant about football, sure...but not racist. Her favorite person in the whole world is Lovie Smith.

Maybe Ross didn't act religious enough for her. She's a kooky little old lady who loves her some Jesus and likes to pray with her employees.

So why would you want Foles and Geno? Just curious.

If the Chiefs trade for Foles, resign Albert, and Bowe, where do they head? I'm not saying Milliner is #1 overall material, but a nice CB alongside Flowers with Berry would be kind of interesting. You already have Justin Houston and Tamba rushing the passer. If you're wanting a DT, you used your #9 pick or whatever on Poe last year, and he wasn't too shabby. What do you do if you're the Chiefs?

You draft your QB of the future at #1, because Foles is a backup. At best.

Make no mistake about it, backup QB is still a huge need for this team. None of the QBs that were on the roster last year are expected to return.

I think there should be a slight concern that he is bringing in a guy that he drafted. Coaches are notoriously loyal to their players, especially QBs.

KC does need at least 2 new QBs, but I wonder if Andy Reid sees it that way...

He should be real valuable for Kelly in the offseason to get the offense implemented. Dixon won't start at any point hopefully but he still has a lot of value for the Eagles.

I just had an epiphany - the Seahawks need to sign Dustin Keller.

Also Anthony Fasano, Jared Cook, Fred Davis, and Martellus Bennett.

They'll never have to defend against TEs if they just sign them all and let them rot as blockers like Zach Miller.
