He does look very good. Hard to believe he didn't even really play in preseason. One thing I notice is even as big as he is, he has some quickness to him. Cousins yesterday looked like everything he did was in molasses.

Bears can thank me later for the jinx. :lol

Is it possible for a team to quit in the first quarter of the second game of the year? Because it looks like the Bears have. If we can't beat them at home when they're traveling on a short week, we're in trouble. Eagles look like they're playing very hard, just like they did in preseason...

You know what I meant. They didn't give him the contract he wanted.

Early on, my thought was that this defense was even worse than I imagined. Looks like Cousins is the terrible QB he was at the end of the 2014 season, and they were smart to deny him that long term contract.

Not sure. It wasn't one of those gruesome-looking injuries, but he couldn't put any weight on it.

It's just ridiculous how good Aaron Rodgers is.

Nominating TZS for Unofficial Team Historian.

Yeah, but one of Minny or Green Bay will be also, and Philly could be after tomorrow night.

^ Yep. Sturm was talking in the pregame about how we're #21 or 22 in the league in defensive cap spending. Our defense shouldn't be expected to be that good. They looked terrible today IMO but that's about all you can expect given the resources allocated there.

Even Mike Brown is ahead of Jerry now.

No kidding. The Ticket was talking about a team of 11 year olds all kneeling recently. Absurd. Kaepernick may completely mean well, I don't know, but it sure feels like a publicity/popularity stunt at this point.

As far as Dez getting the ball, it's probably better if they don't put Norman on him. If they don't, he'll surely be doubled on the other side and we know what that means -- instant move to the next read.

Watch the Football Life on him. He's so legit. He paid his dues and worked his way up, even coached for Bear Bryant. Not a phony bone in his body.

Old material I know, but I don't see how contracts like the Barber or especially Ratliff ones hurt us that bad. What good players did we have to get rid of because of them? Nobody. I'm not saying especially the Barber one was smart, because small physical backs usually don't last in this...

:facepalm

Said it before, but Scandrick is getting a little long in the tooth. Doesn't seem like it, but he's been around for almost a decade now. Old players get hurt and speed players can't be effective when they can't run.

It was Stewart. But I don't believe that was the reason anyway. Capers was a Garrett guy and Garrett was trying to set up his future staff like he had with Houck and a couple others Jerry chose with Garrett ties. I think Wade balked at that -- Garrett got the coaches he wanted on offense but I...

It is Spaulding's mom. She was on the Ticket last week and said he thinks he's a scouting guru, so there's your future GM. Also, she looks like Jerry in the face. Would never hit.

Good point. Wilcox should never be on the field except maybe in short yardage defense. So why was he playing over Jones? If Wilcox comes in for anyone, it should be for Church.
