The Chicago Bears Khalil Mack trade dropped like a bomb on Saturday, September 1st, 2018. Not since the blockbuster deal for Jay Cutler back in 2009 were fans shaken out of their accustomed "calm" so thoroughly. One moment the Bears are going into the regular season against Aaron Rodgers with grave...
The Chicago Bears knew what was coming when they got involved in the Khalil Mack trade negotiations. Giving up multiple draft picks for the superstar pass rusher was only part of the equation. They would also have to sign him to a lucrative new contract. One that would likely make him the...
Facts are facts. The Chicago Bears Khalil Mack trade was a blockbuster of blockbusters. Getting a 27-year old Pro Bowler in his prime is expensive, especially if he's a pass rusher. The Bears learned this nine years ago when they made their move for Jay Cutler. They knew they were mortgaging the...
The critics of the Chicago Bears Khalil Mack trade will be plentiful. They would've been regardless. That's just how it goes. Every move is scrutinized until the team starts winning. The Bears haven't done that in six years. Something needed to change, so they decided to go get one of the best pass...
The Chicago Bears knew going into the coming 2018 season that they had a problem. For all the improvements they made on their offense, a lingering concern remained on their defense. That involving the pass rush. Pernell McPhee, Willie Young, and Lamarr Houston were gone by the start of free agency....
Ryan Pace was a surprise when the Chicago Bears hired him. He came out of left field as Player Personnel Director for the New Orleans Saints. A longtime protege of successful GM Mickey Loomis. Since then Pace has kept close ties to his former team. He brought Josh Lucas, his assistant GM over from...
For so many Chicago Bears draft enthusiasts, it's one of those "Where were you when-?" moments. It was April of 2014. The 1st round was underway. Most understood that the defense was in dire need of help. Brian Urlacher and Lance Briggs were gone as was Julius Peppers. The team badly needed a...
The Chicago Bears roster appears set for the most part. The final preseason game was an exercise to see which players might be able to sneak onto the final 53 at the bottom of the depth chart. Names like Ryan Nall and Doran Grant were among those who made convincing cases. That aside, there is...
The Chicago Bears got plenty of quality tape in the preseason finale against the Buffalo Bills. Granted the fourth quarter might be something they want to avoid as the defense gave up 25 unanswered points but winning the game isn't what preseason is about. It's about play evaluation and there were...
The fourth preseason game gets such a bad rap these days but that's not entirely fair. The Chicago Bears certainly put it to good use. In building a big 20-0 halftime lead, they got strong performances across the depth chart from players fighting for roster spots. Perhaps the name that stood out...
Chicago Bears Khalil Mack trade cries won't go away. If anything they've only grown louder. At least on social media. Even current Bears players have enjoyed jokes at expense of the rumors. Fun aside, people just aren't sure what's going to happen with the 27-year old former Defensive Player of the...
People love to say that preseason games don't matter and especially that fourth preseason game. The starters don't play. The scores don't count against the final record. So what's the point? Preseason games aren't about that stuff. They're about roster evaluation. It's a final opportunity for...
