Root like crazy for the Bears tonight!

[erod]

A loss tonight in Chicago followed by a Cowboys win Sunday....and the price for Earl Thomas could go down.

Seattle is similar to the Giants. Bad offensive line with a defense that has taken some steps backward. The difference is that Russell Wilson can run for his life, while Eli can not. The Cowboys have an excellent chance to win in similar fashion on Sunday to what we saw last night.

An 0-3 start for Seattle pretty much ends their season already. Thomas then becomes a commodity they have to shed by Week 6 and the trading deadline. Risking getting him injured after the Cowboys game would be foolish and arrogant. Not to mention, teams aren't going to pay as much for 10 games as they would 13.

Chicago can play defense, as we saw last night, so if they can pull this out tonight, that will only help Dallas' cause.

Add Earl Thomas to the back end of what we're seeing, with Heath and Frazier as the strong safety duo and Woods backing up and learning from ET.....

That would make for a truly dominant defense, especially with Gregory and Irving back in the fold.

Go Bears.

I’m off the ET bus. We need to spend on the offense. Would like Bears to win though.

 

[G2]

I think we're good. At least wait until next season and save.

 

[reddyuta]

break a leg Russel wilson.

 

[CF74]

ET and a better 1-Tech would make us a Top 3 defense. Tain’t gonna happen...

 

[Prime21]

Wilson can run but they do not have any weapons like Saquon or ODB.

Hopefully the Bears beat them and then we smother them again.

You can do both. Lots of cap space coming.

I don't want Heath at free safety. He's so much better pushed up, and he and Frazier would be great depth for each other at that position. And in dime, you can play all three if you want to.

 

[Reid1boys]

I don’t disagree,but I would not want this young defense to have to overpay Thomas the following year.we need to worry about dlaw money before an aging star.

 

[Batman1980]

Tank Lawrence > Earl Thomas. Top 5 LDE in his prime>aging FS.

 

[Tabascocat]

Nope, need Seattle to win. It will be an even tougher tasking going into their home opener if they sit at 0-2.

I wonder if the staff would still be interested (even at a reduced price) based on how the defense has preformed without him.

I don't care how low the price gets. Dint trade for him. Sign him in the off season. I guess if they take a 7th then yeah do it

There's plenty of money for that.

ET is going to be that expensive. 4 years, $10 million, $25 guaranteed. That's not crazy money for an elite safety at all.

You can still take care of DLaw, sign a signficant offensive player, and draft well.

At 0-3, I don't think Seattle has much bargaining position with the trade deadline looming. Might get him for a 3rd after all.

 

[J12B]

Well you have to image Seattle would drop their price to a second rounder. We would drop our offer to a 3rd. Seattle probably won't take it.

It would be nice to have ET for a 3rd, but I don't see it happening.

Woods should be playing by week 4.

Against a poor passing team and a team that can't protect its quarterback.

Atlanta, New Orleans, Green Bay, Minnesota, Philly......those are different animals.

 

[Maxmadden]

Seattle runs a smallish defense with speed. We can just overpower them on offense and just need to contain Wilson. I think we can just overpower them and wear them down. Wilson will have a long day after a short week.
Point set match.

Woods is awful. Just leave Frazier in.

What is this ET you speak of and where do I find it?

Not spending that on a 29-year old. And not giving up premium draft pick. I’ve thought about it a lot and wrong or right, that’s my view.

You watch...if the Boys trade for him...he’ll pull a hammy within 3 games.

 

[Zekeats]

Your'e way off. Woods is a good all around safety.
