Too bad about AP, but understandable
Seems like AP always played hard whenever he got the ball, but that’s never been very often. I’ve always liked him, but it makes sense that they’d put a promising rookie at #2 and evaluate him in the games they have left.
AP has long been a favorite of mine.
While I understand the numbers concerning signing someone with AP’s experience and age compared to the cheaper and younger Khalil Bell. I don’t think that the Bears have ever properly used AP. He is a stand up guy, I hope he is back next year, will understand if he isn’t and will continue to root for him wherever he lands.
—RB Matt Forte has joined Walter Payton as the only Bears running backs in franchise history with two 50-catch seasons. Forte had 63 catches as a rookie in 2008, and he has 51 this season.
Damn surprising we only have 2 RBs with multiple 50 catch seasons. What with all the rocket arm QBs and HoF WRs that have passed through here.
Hmm check this out
LM: Lovie Smith said Monday that he feels the Bears have a good core of players and there’s no reason to think the team can’t make the playoffs next season. Do you agree with that assessment?
JA: I agree that we have a real good core of players, and we have the bulk of our players coming back. With repetition, familiarity with the system and obviously more experience, you can take a quantum step. We have a good nucleus. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to accomplish the things that we wanted to accomplish this season. But there’s absolutely no reason to believe that we can’t be a playoff team next year.
You know what i read between these lines?
Goodbye Ron Turner..hello Charlie Weis!!

Lovie said the same thing last year...
Eventually… he’s going to run out of chances to say that, because he’ll be out of a job.

I <3 Brendon.
He’s a player I really wish the Bears would’ve ponied up the dough for.

this morning on SCR...
mully, biggs, and hanley all laughing about the backpedaling tweets from hester’s twitter account. they were surmising there’s no way in hell devin actually wrote them (proper use of semi colon, etc).
it’s nice to see the bears front office hard at work.
Of course Wale took the high road.
He still wants the Bears to re-sign him. Bad mouthing coaches and the team’s personnel decisions aint exactly the best thing to do during a contract year.

I dont see him coming back either way.
They have to many DE as is.
Not sure if your statement was sarcastic or not.
But from someone who has suffered from migraines I truly do feel sorry for Percy Harvin. I wouldn’t wish migraines on my worst enemy. Truly.
If you can't laugh at yourself you must not be very funny.
Of course it wasn't sarcastic.
I’ve said a million times that I didn’t think PH would stay healthy, that he wasn’t tough enough for the NFL… but I would never take a pot shot at something like that.
Football is not real life to me; I tend to be a little more humane when it comes to people’s real lives versus football lives.
