That's like all @Black Rainbow does. He shits on everything with his pessimism and then runs away and reports to the mods when people start making fun of him.
I thought his schtick was to say things that are intentionally moronic to get people to correct him, then digs his heels in and starts some childish vortex.

He's been effortlessly moving the offense down the field during the two minute drill. When Justin Fields couldn't even get the offense in position Caleb Williams put points on the board during the two minute drill yesterday and had them down at the 10 for a two minute drill today. The scenario was down by 4. Defense made good plays on the ball in tight quarters. I'll take going 0-4 in the red zone from the rookie QB so long as he continuously gets the offense in position to score. Better to have a chance in the red zone than to never get there in the first place ala Justin Fields.

Forte might not have had that immediate acceleration, but he was good at everything and I would stack him with Neal Anderson for a comparison.

They had comparably long careers - maybe it is Forte is nearer in time but I put Forte at #3 on the Bears all-time RB list (after Payton and Sayers, of course).
Maybe in your lifetime. There are a few hall of famers who would be above Forte on any historians list

Oh he definitely does that. But when people start going in on him in response by pointing out that he's a low life prison scumbag, he runs away, plays the victim, and reports everyone to the mods.

Also puts you on fake ignore

He's just bitter from being on house arrest with an ankle monitor. He can't leave his mom's basement when I'm visiting her which is pretty funny tbh.

Second in my lifetime, if only because everybody knows Sayers is right up there. Alas, born too late.

Let's line up the highlight reels and pop the popcorn!

Where are the mods when it's the same certain people absolutely ruining a thread when those people are going after someone the mods don't like?

I mean shit this is our training camp thread and the last 3-4 pages have been @DanielCCSBears and @msadows going after each other but because it's @DanielCCSBears the mods are just sitting back and enjoying it.

I thought this was a good write up from today.

Interesting comment right at the end made by Billings about the Center competition - 2 different body types with one guy being quick and the other being really strong.
Maybe it's the meatball in me, and I know very little about this offense and blocking schemes and whatnot, but I would prefer the center to be strong. I think that comes from seeing so many years of A-gap pressure.

Contrary to popular belief we do have lives outside of here.

@msadows and @DanielCCSBears please get a room and take it somewhere else.

Thanks.
