His one strength, speed. is neutralized by his hammy issues.

He was never as good otherwise as most Chiefs fans think he was.

I like your takes on here.

But I've never seen you once say a player is as good as everyone thinks he is.

However, our biggest problem was that we had problems everywhere, so there was no way in hell we were going to address them all.

OK, I take that back.

Our biggest problem was, and still is Carl, who, of course, is responsible for all these other problems.

:clap: You said it all! Gets my vote for post of the year...

I can see that.

I rarely comment on players that are getting deserved praise, I guess.

So, in an effort to be a little more positive, I believe that Willie Roaf and Will Shields, in spite of all the props they got, were still a little underrated.

Great signing.

Free agency has doomed this team as much as the draft.

Gotta give some kudos to Herm on this. Previously we would be playing him regardless.
See #99 Kendrell Bell for an example

I wonder if ****her is still waiting in his offce with Bell for someone to come and "tell it to their faces" that Bell sucked?

FWIW, yes we have had our share of FA busts, but I bet Denver has had more since Shanny's inception in 95. Shanny is such a sucker for the big name FA.

A typical stoopid Gunther take, he makes Herm look smart. Why are we cursed with these dumbasses? I am starting to understand the people that say this team is getting stocked for the next HC. Chan Gailey?

He just believes that top 10 overall should not be used on LB.

Unless it's a pass rusher which makes DT an exception to my rule as far as that goes.

Yep. Even if every draftee develops into a solid starter some point down the line we'd need at least another draft that delivered 5 or 6 starters to fill all the holes on this team. This whole season is about talent evaluation. It is going to be like another 16 weeks of preseason, except our fake starters will play longer and our real starters will get more injured and older.

We dont even know if we have a reliable QB yet IMO.

I don't think that is a question. I'm as much of a Brodie supporter as anybody, but I don't think there is an arguement that he is reliable. Potentialy, yes. Definitely, no.

We dont know if he can stay healthy for a whole season

We dont know if he can win a game.

We dont know if he will ever develop.

It doesn't really matter that our LBs appear to suck. So does our OL. So does our DL (young and full of potential doesn't mean jack yet). So do our QBs (until proven otherwise). Our CBs are totally untested (everybody but Surtain) or past-it (Surtain). The list goes on. People are already hoping that Pollard get demoted. Wasn't he "Bonecrusher" a year ago?

This team is bad, but is hopefully getting better. The LBs are only a small part of the big picture problem.

So, in your opinion, the Bears made an error in draft judgement in selecting Brian Urlacher number 9 overall?
