Sorry Fisch, I'm gonna go with the guys who get paid to do this over you. Career wise there's no comparison obviously. But even players as good as Tillman do run down over time. We passed on 2015 Tillman... not 2011 Tillman.

Yep. Still right. Alan Ball is living in a $3M doghouse. Tillman intercepted Andrew Luck. Good move Pace.

I'm sure Peanut wanted to resign with the Bears, but I'm positive Pace was upfront with him and said you're better off signing elsewhere to try to win a ring instead of sticking around on a 4 win team. Peanut made the right choice with the Panthers.

How do you resign from a team with whom you don't have a contract?

No way Tillman can play in the cover 3 at his age and declining speed!

Hmmm. Tillman forced another fumble on Eddie lacy. But Ball is da Gawd Buttfly said.

Tillman should have retired a Bear.

Anybody that saw the game today, saw Peanut making plays. I'm surprised he's still this good.

Alan Ball has been a disappointment.
