Which begs the question... where's the worst place to send a quarterback to wither and die on the vine? Miami or Cleveland?

Browns, Jets, Bears, Raiders are all easily worse than Miami. No backups have looked good there under McDaniel but that's not really unusual across the league. Putting Ewers in is gonna ruin any chance at a NFL career he may have had though so it's kind of a dick move.

Tua looked pretty damn good in 2022 and 2023. I think that concussion trying to spear Hamlin was just one too many.
 
Some Harbaugh drama came out of the

drama.

I’ll post the rest of it in the college football thread.

The Chicago Bears say they are looking into building their new stadium in northwest Indiana.




An open letter from Bears president and CEO Kevin Warren (first link posted above).

Are the Bears serious, or is this a hail mary proposition to use as leverage against the governments of Illinois and Chicago? Would the Chicago Bears even really be the Chicago Bears if they play their home games in Indiana? Both New York teams do play at MetLife in Jersey I guess...

Northwestern Indiana is still technically part of the Chicago neighborhood. And getting out of Chicago and Illinois is a really big tax saver. Chicago is insanely expensive and its only getting worse

Also I'm like 99% sure McDaniel has paid shills on Reddit, like idk why they still think he's some kind of offensive genius. They are fucking 31st in the league in passing. Maybe they just like him because he's a mumbling autistic retard like them.

He's a mystery meat, effeminate, quirky soy boy. Its not hard to see why Redditors love him so much, hes their wet dream.

The Chicago Bears finally have a decent season and they immediately think they can extort their city for everything they can.

Ownership and executive drama is almost as exciting as the sport itself.

I mean, isn't Soldier Field literally the smallest stadium in the NFL? And the remodel it had back in the early 2000's was hated by literally everyone, to the point the field lost it's Historical Site status?

I get why they're trying to use the one time they have leverage to get a new stadium built, but honestly everyone involved is retarded.

They've been planning the new stadium since the Nagy days, they bought the initial property back in like 2020. Talks were stalling with the state/county, so they fired their old CEO (the guy who oversaw the disastrous remodel of Soldier Field, btw) and replaced him with the former big 10 commissioner a few years back. Looks like even he couldn't get the county to commit to not hiking property taxes by double digits over the course of the stadium's lifetime to keep throwing money into the black hole that is Chicago, so now they're abandoning Arlington Heights for Indiana.
By owner stadium concessions, the Bears are being pretty reasonable. They just want some transit infrastructure renovations so you're not piping a whole football stadium's worth of people through roads that were primarily serviced by retirees going to watch horse racing (and the aforementioned property tax guarantees). The stadium's being built with private money. That's essentially the same deal Robert Kraft struck with the state of Massachusetts to get Foxoboro built.

Yes, by a comfortable margin now that So-Fi is built and the LA teams aren't playing in the LA Coliseum/a fucking soccer field. It manages to both be horribly inaccessible to car traffic and also kind of shitty for public transit, since it's like a 20 minute walk to get that far into the park it's built in from the nearest L station.

They actually suck and puttholmres has been exposed for the overrated fraud we always knew he was but some of these commentators legit want to suck his cock.

My main problem with it is that it's a good way to get your receivers killed.

You can't really brace with a jump or high point so if you get a jump ball in midfield and have 3 LBs after you it's just like well whatever happens happens.

thats one of the reasons I always maintained mahomes was overrated, that is the throw he excels at, just lofting it up for his recievers to make a play at. Kelce is always so much bigger than the defenders that the injury bug never hit him too hard

They have that crazy nigger mayor who is taxing everyone into oblivion and making fishface lightfoot look reasonable by comparison

No, it's the dumbest bluff ever and it's also not the first time they've threatened to move to Gary. They're just mad that they're not getting any taxpayer money to build their stadium at Arlington Heights.

Chicago should call their bluff and force them to stay right where they are after they bilked the taxpayers into paying to renovate Soldier Field into the monstrosity it is today.

As we head into the final three games of the season, how does everyone feel about how the season has played out? Honestly, I've watched less professional football this year and more college football than ever. NFL feels like it may have reached a level of parity amongst the top teams. It's so weird to see the Chiefs, Ravens, and other dominant teams just languish throughout the year. Is it truly parity, or has the rest of the league finally gotten smart to the game?

I do have to say that the Patriots have been an exciting team to watch. Despite the loss to Buffalo yesterday, they're obviously going to be winning the AFCE and will be interesting to see in the playoffs. Drake Maye, while he has proven to be a good starting QB, is going to get tested in the coming weeks. It'll be interesting to see how he fares in the playoffs and how he improves over the off season.

See it was the opposite for me. College ball got boring fast and the NFL had plenty of upsets to keep things interesting. That said my college teams are likely a lot different from what most people on here are following.

Da Bears playing in a dome is a cardinal football sin. They will never achieve playoff success like the Vikings for their sinful stadium.

Chicago has already agreed to the infrastructure upgrades, it's the property tax guarantees that are the sticking point.

Chicago has no reason to capitulate. It's not like a brand new team is moving to town that might bring in tax revenue. They're just moving to the suburbs. The threat of moving to Indiana is empty unless the state wants to spend a shit ton of money making the Hammond/Gary region not a total hole.

Tua was one of the most promising QB prospects in recent memory. It's honestly really sad that his brains got scrambled so early in his NFL career because he legitimately had the potential to be a franchise QB for the Dolphins if he hadn't sustained so many injuries in quick succession. He's pretty obviously not playing the same caliber of football he was a couple years back. I do still have faith in McDaniel, though. It's just any play you run is gonna look like ass when you have to conduct all your offense through a guy who probably has literal brain damage.

Our season's already dead, so why not give Ewers a chance to prove himself? It doesn't really matter anymore, and I'm willing to take a chance on starting this guy especially if it means we could come out of it with a viable replacement for Turndaballova.

Yeah as much as I dislike McDaniel I think the failure of this season is more on Tua. He used to be excellent at processing the field and getting quick, accurate throws out and then his brains left the building.

Steve Young went out due to too many concussions too. It's just a thing that happens. I think Tua should have hung up the cleats but he had $100m reasons not to, so...
