It be a function of how team friendly it be. If it is seems to me it be hard to pass on
Following Smith’s agreement, the Saints gave Derek Carr a four-year, $150MM deal that featured $70MM in practical guarantees
Sounds like it is Geno that wants an extension and this guy agrees there is no reason to do it now.

This is hilarious. The guy is being interviewed in a parking lot standing up. And he says it might make sense to give Geno and extension if he has done a nice job in preseason. And this Garafolo guy is some expert insider??? :lol: :lol: :lol: Go to the 16:30 mark.

Some ugly offensive team stats from last night's game. TOP, number of plays, total yards, 3rd down efficiency, not pretty. It didn't feel that ugly when I was watching it, but then again I was drinking icy cold PBR. :lol:

3 winners and 2 losers. The two losers are a 6th rounder and a QB that has zero chance to make the team so all good.

It's good that McIntosh is playing well, but there isn't much difference between being the #3 and #4 RB. I mean, come on.

tale of two halves. first half was just the opposite, and that's the important one, particularly the 1st quarter when the second string and a few starters are playing. The only potential starters playing in the second half were the rookies Knight and Haynes, who got a lot of time at LG to see if he's as good on that side as he was at his normal RG. The one false start aside, he looked pretty good last night imho. Knight is probably more solidly a starter, and have to think they just want to get him as much game prep as possible, facing 3 different QBs. or one more potential starter in Derick Hall if he keeps progressing like he has shown in the first two outings. of course he hasnt done it against the regulars yet.

Thats pretty remarkable, heck, geno has done it

The Chicago Bears are about to start their 105th season in franchise history. For the majority of that time, the Bears have been defined by three things: a ferocious defense, some all-time great running backs, and arguably the most pathetic quarterback lineage in NFL history.

The Bears are the only team in the NFL to never have a quarterback throw for 4,000 yards in a season
. Most of the teams passing records are either held by Sid Luckman, whose career predates World War II, or Jay Cutler, who is Jay Cutler. At long last, it finally appears that the Bears have a franchise QB, and it’s not their fans who are hyping up Caleb Williams.

That's like never having a 40 HR guy in 100 years for an MLB team. I wonder if they blame the climate.

If he keeps playing like he did vs. the Titans he could be #2.

And he thinks Geno's performance in scrimmages and during PRACTICE is going to determine if he will get an extension before the season starts. lol
