Knocked off a little rust, you ******* better watch out for the next time I accidentally get invited onto the podcast.

 

[JosMin]

Can we never speak Adam Podlesh's name again?

Bump.

I'd like X to follow me around and narrate my life.

"Prope enters the fruit section of the grocery store intending to purchase apples - but the ripeness of the Anjou Pears has him much more intrigued."

"Prope after watching his fifth amateur porn video retires to his special place and furiously pumps his penis to completion."

Ya know....stuff like that.

I forgot you were Prope.

Now I am happy again.

If you're calling me the Morgan Freeman of CCS, I'll take it as the highest of compliments.

Thx!

I think you guys focus on the safety play more than you should. Yeah Conte was bad and Wright had some issues but our top priorities need to be getting the Dline and Linebackers worked out first. No pass rush is going to kill all DBs. RBs are tearing through our Dline and LBs with lack of discipline on gap control. RB are getting into our secondary far to often. However upgrading safety through FA shouldn't be difficult but do not overpay at the safety position. Peanut said he doesn't want to play safety.

“No,” Tillman said when asked about the possibility of moving to safety. “I think my athleticism is still there to play corner in this league, whether it be for the Bears or somebody else. I think I still have some corner left in me.”

As far as special teams go, no reason to get rid of Hester, but Podlesh has to go. I could probably punt a football further than Podlesh.

Good discussion guys, thanks ! Yes Joe Buck is garbage LOL.

I can definitely see how it comes across that we payed too much attention to safety play -- with Rush's Conte intro and all of us liking Byrd...Makes sense.

And yeah, Tillman-to-safety probably won't happen -- but never say never I guess.

The only reason to "get rid of Hester" is if someone's willing to offer him big money as a KR. He's not worth the highest paid contract to a KR anymore...but someone may offer it to him. :shrug:

Thx for listening!

Not ignoring the rest of the podcast (nice work as ever) considering it was looking at the offseason I don't suppose if anyone knows if Dexter McCluster is an UFA?

Don't get me wrong on the safeties, they can probably be upgraded relatively easily in FA. Conte was especially aggravating this season. I just believe the greatest bang for the $$$ is going to come out of upgrading our Dline and linebackers. This terrible run D has to stop, and must be first priority in our rebuilding this defense IMO.

Good listen though X, thanks!

He is indeed.
