Chicago Bears/NFL fans? What should they do?

I agree it looks very cool. Would prefer a retractable roof.

The bigger question is: who is going to PAY for it?
So the only NFC North team left playing in the cold will be the (north most) denizens in Lambeau Field.
All the AFC North teams play in the cold.
AFC South’s Colts are North of AFC North’s Bengals.

Yep.

But hey, we are building a pass happy, playground team. 3 legit WR and a TE who is a weapon.

Chicago needs a domed building like this. Not being able to host all the things they listed out, in one of the greatest cities in the world, stinks for Chicago. And if its done right, with easy transit and parking in and out of the stadium area, that whole North Shore/Mag Mile area will get back to being one of the best places to visit in the world.

Obviously the nostalgia of playing snowy games against teams like Green Bay, will be missed. But the benefits far outweigh the negatives.
 
In the end, I loved their draft. Williams seems to have won over a lot of Bears people in the weeks leading up to the draft. And his talent can't be denied.

Getting Odunze was incredible. Thank you Atlanta.

And then I thought they did a good job with their later picks too. Taking a punter as early as they did was maybe a little iffy, but assuming he's as good as projected, he solves what was a very poor aspect of the team...and with a young quarterback, field position could be a huge factor in their success. And then the DLineman out of Kansas... could end up being a diamond in the rough.

They've still got some money left to spend too, hope they successfully fill in any remaining cracks with good, durable veterans. Probably still need some OL and DL depth.

Don’t thank Atlanta, thank Chargers. Atlanta should’ve drafted Turner or traded back.

I think protecting Herbert better was probably a decent move. Odunze was likely the best player on the board for multiple picks before 9 though...so thank all of them!

The Colts should be in the AFC Central with Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Cincy. It sucks that the only Colt's conf games that fans can drive to are with the Titans.
 
Hard Knocks! Who’s excited?
I think it'll be interesting, for sure.

The current reports of Williams struggles in OTAs...are well, troubling.

Its just a few workouts, I'm sure all the people that get paid to analyze all this can't be wrong...but man...you don't often hear that level of bad.

I guess if nothing else, it'll make hard knocks VERY interesting if he continues to struggle.

I’ve heard different. He looked much better this week apparently.

2 games in… he’s missing A LOT of easy throws. But on the flip side of that, he appears to be handling the pressure and scrutiny fairly well. His offensive line has been pretty bad. And he seems to be keeping his cool.

Hoping the game slows down for him soon and he starts throwing better mid/deep balls. They can be solid and win a lot of games even if he doesn’t. They can be really good if he does.

and if not, I have a secret source who says the Panthers might listen to a trade for Bryce Young. You heard it here first!

I think 23-37 is pretty amazing considering he was pressured on almost every throw. The O. line is a hot mess and seems completely disorganized. They have some decent linemen. The coaching has to be the problem in my opinion. Next year's draft will be the time to re-build the line with at least 2 new studs.
 
This is where drafting Amegadjie in the 3rd round as an injured project hurts. They need help at guard now, not two years from now. They could have gotten a more ready made player at that position.

And Poles shouldn’t be forgiven for completely neglecting the Center position.
 
I was at the game yesterday. Some of the coaching on the Bears side was pathetic. The O. Line was terrible but why do you continue to run Swift up the middle for no gain. He was 13 rushes for 20 yards. He is not an interior type runner. Roschon Johnson should get all the work on the inside. The play calling on the goal line stand lost them the game. Caleb is making mistakes but also showing improvement. Unless they get a running game they are going to be lucky to win 5 games. When a team seems disorganized like the Bears do it is bad coaching. Also, the Colts are not playoff material either. I do like their head coach though.

Time to clean house again. Top to bottom. Hire a competent GM. Let him hire his own coach. Let that coach pick his staff. This isn hard, yet the McCaskeys keep screwing it up.

Time for the Bears to start tanking. Get the #1 draft choice and pick a Heisman Trophy winning QB. That will solve
all their problems.

Or...SELL THE F@CKING TEAM.

You too, Reinsdorf.
 
It looks cool for sure. I would have preferred architecture that more closely matches Soldier field, and the museums... but obviously something can be said for having it completely unique and different. Kinda looks like the shape of "The Bean"...

There was a concept and rendering a while back that tied a Museum area stadium with a big transit hub and retail area. Thinking about parking, and ways to actually get in and out of that area...seems like that transit hub concept had some merit.
I agree with the transit hub, if the jerkoffs driving down I65 are an example of Chicago drivers. Sunday's drive from Boone County was like being in a Mad Max movie.
WTF is wrong with these people?

Although it was worth it to see their drunk asses slink away with their tail between their legs, again.
