The bears need to stop looking for a world beater

We need to face facts the bears are probably never going to have a peyton manning or tom brady type qb. The bears have been looking for a franchise qb for as long as I have been alive. We should change our focus and bring in someone who is going to stabilize the position, someone who is above average but not going to turn any heads, somebody like jake plummer (not advocating we go and get jake the snake). The only player I can think of that could fit that bill would be, all but forgotten buccaneer chris simms, he is good not great, and I think would be perfect as the bears signal caller. I know he hasnt played in like two years but he is an upgrade over ortman.

A speculative look at day 1 starters

So I was wondering what everyone here thought about our day 1 starters, on both sides of the ball.

I think it will be

on offense; qb grossman, rb, benson(however will only be a starter in name, will split time with forte) c kruetz, t tait and williams g garza and either beekman/ metcalf (not sure) te clark/olsen (we damn well better run two tight ends) wr booker,bradley, hester

and on defense; de ogunleye, brown, dt harris, dvoracek, lb briggs urlacher, hillenmeyer, cb vasher, tillman, s mike brown, payne.

So what do you all think

the longest list of excuses ever

cam cameron

I know lovie said ron turner's job was secure but now hearing that cam cameron is out of miami do you think the bears will make a move, if you dont look at this last season at miami I think cameron looks like a good candidate. And there is no way he would be less imaginative then turner.

I think we already have most of the pieces to have an explosive offense again, we just need to reload at oline,
