Are you talking about the 85 Bears? Chicago hasn't won a Super Bowl since then

Mr. Laz 07-13-2012 01:00 PM

He can pretty much say goodbye to winning another super bowl now

but he got paid

CoMoChief 07-13-2012 01:01 PM

Yep. Considering all that has happened to them this year they HAD to get this done.
How much $ did they save this year due to the suspensions?

QFT

DJ's left nut 07-13-2012 01:34 PM

That's not an unreasonable contract at all.

He probably has 3 years at an elite level left, followed by a couple of decline seasons. They can give him his massive money up front and perhaps approach him about restructuring the last 2 years into a 5-year deal that allows him to finish out his playing years in that 'ambassador' role as they try to re-shape their offense post-Brees.

When you have an elite QB, you pay what it takes. That deal is extremely reasonable given Bree's ability and performance in NO.
