[WestCoastCornhusker2]

Gotta go with either Steelers or Falcons, probably going with Falcons.

Gotta go with either Steelers or Falcons, probably going with Falcons.

As a Bears fan, I cannot fault a decision to go with the Falcons. We don't know if Prince will be back healthy, Fuller sure as hell can't handle Julio and TBH neither can a healthy Prince really.

Floyd is dealing with some kind of foot issue, McPhee is hoping to see his first game action, I don't know that Trevathan is back healthy...tons of question marks on the Bears D.

Oh and even if Good Mike Glennon shows up, our WR corps is trash. Kyle Long is maybe gonna play for the first time this year, he still has a torn labrum that he evidently didn't get fixed in the offseason because he didn't want to rehab an ankle and a shoulder all at once, which evidently is a thing.

If the Bears make 6 wins it's been a good year.

Damn Beav...You make being a Chiefs fan seem exciting.

Yeah Mike Glennon with piss poor WR set and a Dion Sims as TE? I epect Jordan Howard to get focused on, box loaded.

 

[Headcard]

I went with the Bills.

I went with the Bills.

Wow, the Jets must be horrible this year.

Yes and my pool allows buy backs the first 8 weeks, so I really try to sandbag and save the Pats, Steelers, etc for the second half of the season.

I sure would if I were DC. Bears have nobody who can take the lid off. Kevin White is said to be a shell of his former self after snapping a twig in consecutive seasons. Basically the rumblings on him are that he's slow now.

Who you gonna bomb it to, Kendall Wright? They'll try to dink, dunk and screen people to death. Matter of time before Glennon loses the job to Trubisky just like he did in Tampa. They named Trubisky the #2, he's progressed faster than they thought and Glennon is worse than they thought.

Their running game will be better than people think, though. If Long is solid, their OL from G-C-G is pretty good. They made a good pick with Whitehair. As I suspected, they ended the Jeremy Langford experiment. What a cliff that kid fell off. Keep an eye on Tariq Cohen in PPR leagues. Dude is a problem in the open field and surprisingly tough to tackle for his size.

Anyone up for a losers pool? Rules are simple. You pick 1 NFL team to lose each week, but you can not repeat the same team the whole year. We could start a thread and copy/paste each week you survive. It is damn near impossible to get past 6 or 7 weeks
