Outlandish Ideas That Could HelpThe Bears Out Of Their Freefall.

has looked pretty darn good this season. The old “FB Dive” has taken a back seat, and he has shown why the Bears like him as a lead blocker.

Hester out as a WR? No way dude. In an ideal world, he shifts to a slot back… most of his production has come in underneath routes versus zone coverage, but has shown the ability to stretch the field in 1-on-1 coverage. We have to increase his touches, not reduce them.

As for Aromashodu, like has been stated before, he is dressing in place of Wolfe on STs. This obviously gives the Bears an opportunity to work him in a few plays per game as a WR… his one catch so far this year was awesome.

But we can’t discredit Bennett… he has shown great hands in making some very tough catches so far. Jay can make the throws to the WRs, he just needs more time to set his feet and let routes develop.

Be careful not to look too terribly much into stats with this group of WRs. They can be solid if the protection up front is there.

i agree and nominate davis to come on as fullback in short yardage situations to open a hole for the running backs. i also want aromashodu to see more action on game day.

ive been saying the last month, he is too undersized to be a threat. Put in K davis, what do we have to lose…..I like you gesiakob, you think outside the box, and that is what this organization has been lacking for decades, 2 of em to be precise ( since the fridge busted thru for that TD in 85)

Completely with you on those, especially #1 the red zone package – KD is our TE !

Amendment to #4 – just for discussion, and seeing as he’s not going back to ST full time – #23 as a halfback/wildcat ….

I am sick of people saying Hester can’t be a #1 wide receiver, because it is just a flat-out lie.

Here are three stat lines from this season:

WR1 – 49 catches, 602 yards, 12.3 ypc
WR2 – 48 catches, 596 yards, 12.4 ypc
WR3 – 50 catches, 582 yards, 11.6 ypc

Without looking it up, can you guess which one is Hester or who the other two are?

WR1 is Brandon Marshall, who lots of people wanted us to trade for this summer, after hearing about his disgruntledness.
WR2 is our very own Devin Hester, who is only in his second year (ever) playing wide receiver.
WR3 is TJ Houshmandzadeh, who everyone wanted us to sign this offseason.

So, if Hester is playing just as well as two guys guys everyone seemed to want to be our “#1” wide receiver, shouldn’t we want Devin Hester?

Only the Bears would take the most electrifying return man and remove him from that position.

Can Marcus Harrison catch the ball? The fullback is required to be a decent receiver out of the backfield .

I agree that McKie has not been impressive as a fullback, and it needs to be looked at.

I agree that Hester should not have been moved to WR, and the coaches should have resisted the temptation to do so. I remember hearing all the screaming going on by those who wanted what the Bears eventually did – moving him to WR and the results have been mostly disappointing on both the return and receiving.

I think that #1 wouldn’t be needed if we had a better line but seeing as we have what we do, i really like it. With guys at 6’ 7" and 6’ 2" on the outside and 6’5" on the inside would be formidable. Jay really only has enough time for a quick fade anyway, 6’7" would get that done.
i don’t know what to say about ur mckie out harrison in. my prob with mckie has always been the fb dive (not his call tho)

1. i dunno.. i think i’m not gonna think about it. our D has fallen so far its just depressing…

1. whats the use of max protect? You know how bad the oline is. Of the 2 TE’s only clark is an ok blocker. so what? in max protect we have 4 ppl that can block as opposed to 3?

1. we get the line fixed devin’s numbers should explode. Yes he needs to work on his routes, but he still is new to it, so thats expected. Every other receiver spent most of their lives doing it. Devin hasn’t. And with the line not protecting enough for the deep ball, it just magnifies his average route running. Honestly, this season is prolly great for his learning curvem bc of those deficiencies on the line.

I thought Izzy was supposed to be fullback
and we should probably have Wolfe as our goal line rb since he has shown to be effective at the position

i mean hes slipped, and broke off some routes but i mean you can throw him out of the starting line up. hes been surprisingly productive hes made ALOT of tough catches this year.
hester is 11th in the league in catches at 48 these like 6 people tied at 10 with 49.
one catch and six yards behind brandon marshall. nothing against aromashadu but i mean alot of us including me want to see him play but he cant act like hes going to be a top 5 wide out i mean i would love for him to be one but you dont know. bennet i think should be used in the redzone because he has the most reliable hands on the team and is the most polished reciever.
everything else i agree with

If we could execute well enough I would like to see one. I saw the replay of Cutler’s last interception (I was mercifully on my way out of town, and listened to the game on the radio) and it seemed like there was an open lane, but no time if he failed to run it in, of course. JC’s had some nice yardage on scrambles, so lets put those happy feet to good use.

I would like to see more of DA and K Davis also just for variety. Size isn’t a necessity, but it might help create some more favorable matchups esp. in the redzone. Also, can we run some 3 TE sets?

P.S.Does anyone have a link so I could see his one catch is SF?

about the Bears season this year is watching Devin Hester develop.Last year he looks lost every time he hit the field.This year he’s making catches that have made me drop my jaw. If we were to add depth to wide reciever in the off season,then Hester could be most productive as a slot guy,with enough time off to be fresh for the return game. So basically,I think moving him to WR was a good move.
