I love this quote:
It’s the simplicity of Mack’s dominance that makes it such a thrill, particularly in an era when schemes and systems mean so much in the NFL. Mack reduces the game to something more elemental: there are people in his way and he needs to run through them, and so he does.

Great read, thanks for sharing.

Mack leads the league in both sacks and forced fumbles.

Just wait until Roquan gets up to speed... you're talking 5+ years of dominance.

If the Ravens can win a SuperBowl with Trent Dilfer, the Bears better be able to win one with Mitch and this defense.

I am so happy that Mack is not only a bear, but maybe even the most dominant Bear's defender of all time. As much as Mitchell is difficult to watch, Mack more than makes up for it.

I can see this defense bailing out Trubisky a lot this year...will be helpful as he develops into a competent QB

If the Raiders offered the Bears their 1st round picks for the next 2 years in a trade for Mack. Do you do it?

Not sure where i read it, but my favorite quote was right after Pace traded for him was..

" Every single play that Mack is on the field, there is a cloud of dark terror that quarterbacks can't unsee. They see it pre-snap, they know it's coming for them and they can't get that out of their head. He directly affects every play even if he's not in on it".

Bradford was seeing Ghost on the sidelines, Mack probably ended his career, he’s still rich ..

Hell no.

Have you seen Mack's jersey sales since the Bears made the trade? I've said it before on multiple occasions. The Bears organization still has to make money and give the fans reasons to plop their asses down in the seats on a regular basis. Khalil Mack ticks all those boxes and then some.
