YIPEEEEEEE TRAINING CAMP IS HERE! MAY SWEET BABY JESUS BLESS OUR CHICAGO BEARS THIS YEAR AND FUCK BLACK RAINBOW!
I’m not convinced Alan Williams isn’t a r3tardThe Bears have pretty good players now at the LB core and in the secondary. It is all going to be about the dline play and who else Poles adds to the mix. It is no longer a bottom of the league unit.
Yeah, I'm with you @Blank Rankbutt, to think he used the excuse of his best friend and two unborn children dying as an excuse for losing focus. Come on, I mean the best friend sure, but it's not like he had even met the children. He sure could use some of your moxie.There were a couple of seasons where you seemed perfectly comfortable with losing, Eddie.

I would too if I had to listen to Matt Nagy drone on and on a bout the whys and how he is so great.
Starting at 2:30, this guy claims he was told by a former Bears position coach from Fields' rookie year that he would show up to meetings 1 minute before they started while slumping his shoulders and pouting...
Who could this be? Fields does give off that kind of low energy, annoyed vibe sometimes in his press conferences. This is the first I've heard of any work ethic concerns around this guy since before the draft when Orlovsky said he was a last guy in, first guy out QB.
He’s playing a game. He doesn’t have to play football though. He can take his (most likely) free college education and get a job in the real world. Or he could make millions over 5-10 years, invest, and find gainful employment after his football career. It shouldn’t be hard, since he will be a well known name in many circles (even if he only experienced success in college).I see a guy who will barely able to walk in his 40s who could quite possibly have a 6-figure annual medical bill for maybe 7-8 years of play vs a guy who sits on his ass all day and takes private jets. I'm always curious why good, patriotic, "working people" complain about the athlete getting "overpaid" in that scenario while ignoring the guy making 10 times as much with much less risk who works on Park Avenue.
That whole QB room was weird as hell that year. Foles wanted out, Dalton was anointed and Justin wasn't allowed to compete for the job in pre-season.

Did you see how long he held on to the ball?

It’s a silly argument. None of these players do a thing to improve your life or anyone around you’s life. They distract you from what’s really important in your life and get paid millions to do it. Let the market dictate their worth on a football team. If they don’t like it, they can switch positions or find employment elsewhere.
This is a moment that's been caught 100 times before on Hard Knocks no reason to make it into something bigger and more dramatic that needs to be private.I am so glad this wasnt caught for Hard Knocks. Personally, I would rather that they keep these moments 100% private.
When your neighbor loses their job, you don't gossip about their reaction. You give them comfort when they need it and space when they don't.

Claypool: Perception of work ethic 'not the reality'
Ahead of what he called "the biggest year of my life," Bears receiver Chase Claypool defended his work ethic and an offseason that was limited by injuries, saying that any concerns among critics are based in perception and "not the reality that's true."www.espn.com
The next job you lose will be your first, but rest assured that you will lose it.This is a moment that's been caught 100 times before on Hard Knocks no reason to make it into something bigger and more dramatic that needs to be private.

That said, I remember when JD Runnels got cut from... the Bengals or some shit years back and I felt pretty bad, @gallagher
I actually was impressed by his interview. Seems like he's got his head on straight, hopefully the guy can be a good 3rd option.
