       I guess he figures if they can't block at least there is more of
       them to get in the way.

       Seems that way. I'd like to see what Tice does with that
       package he's assembled.
       Those are some big motherfuuckers...BUT...do they have talent?

       we've been asking for big nasties up front. They are getting
       big, let's hope they are nasty blockers too!

       What Tice has done since he's been here is :
       Carimi
       H. Johnson
       Webb?
       E. Williams?
       Thats 2 out of 4 that can be traced to Tice.
       And lets remember how we came out of the bye last season.
       That was all Tice. I'm not on this guys bandwagon by a
       longshot.
       Give me an upcoming season to see what he has built.
       But it looks good if there is any talent to be involved there.
       Tice could be on to somthing...it is the biggest line ever
       made...  ;D

       Thats wonderful Jackie but lets not put the praises too high
       just yet. Carimi is a rookie. Webb still has a lot to prove yet
       and Big Herman was let go by the Rams. He hasnt even suited up
       for us yet either. Yeah, things look promising on paper but I am
       not too excited yet. Championships arent won on paper.

       The Bears players seem a bit chippy (or is it chirpy ?  :)) this
       off-season. Now Lance Briggs steps up to the plate and says they
       are a championship caliber team.
       I'm glad to see the confidence, but usually with the Bears
       history this usually turns out to be hubris (1985 season
       exempted). I hope the "Pieces are in Place" and they can back up
       their talk in the offseason.
       The reality as of now is that the Packers have another SB trophy
       and the Bears have exactly ONE.  Time to put up or shut up
       indeed.....
       Player strike or not, Lovie's legacy is dependent on this
       season.....
       (BTW being at "newbie" again after all the time on the other
       board feels strange :D)

       Yeah the Bears seem to play best when they are playing the
       disrespect card.  I dont think the boasting we are the best card
       is going to work out so well.

       Good grief.  Players showing confidence in their team is a good
       thing and seeing some of you complain about is unreal.  What do
       you want them to do, say they stink?
       That wouldn't make you guys happy either I'm sure.

       Complain ? No. I like it, but the reality is that this team
       tends to crap its pants when the time to get to (or play in) the
       big dance, 85 notwithstanding.
       Besides, its the offseason. Not much news (especially since the
       strike). We've gotta have something to complain about other than
       a wretched economy and a liar/nincompoop/evil genius (take your
       choice) as POTUS....

       />Cutler Was Better than Forte on Third Downs</a></b></i>
       Ready for a bizarre assessment of the Bears 2010 season? Jay
       Cutler was a much better back than Matt Forte in third-down
       situations.  Jay Cutler was <a
       href="
  HTML http://www.footballoutsiders.com/extra-points/2011/higher-education-best-and-worst-third-down-backs">the<br
       />best rushing quarterback in the league in third-down
       situations
       in 2010</a>. Laugh if you'd like, but it's true. Cutler rushed
       for 121 yards in 12 carries on third-down and was successful 75
       percent of the time. Seriously, stop laughing. Cutler is
       surprisingly mobile, and when plays would break down a large
       defensive lineman was bearing down, Cutler could still pull a
       first-down out.
       Kool-aid warning....

       />Fantuz impressing Bears</a></b></i>
       With so much attention given to which veteran wide receiver the
       Chicago Bears should target once the NFL lockout ends and free
       agency begins, one new receiver already under contract is
       working to establish a rapport with his new teammates.  Former
       CFL standout Andy Fantuz, who signed a reserve/futures contract
       with the Bears on Feb. 4, 2011, participated last week in the
       Bears unofficial offseason workouts led by quarterback Jay
       Cutler, according to an NFL source.  Fantuz, who caught 276
       passes for 4,136 yards and 23 touchdowns the last five seasons
       with the Saskatchewan Roughriders, drew considerable praise from
       a few players in attendance at the workouts. Granted, Cutler and
       fellow quarterback Caleb Hanie are throwing passes without any
       defenders present, but Fantuz was said to display impressive
       athletic ability and good hands while running routes.
