How is it an issue if we won the game. They have a very good defense. MT still scored 2 TD's. Kamara got his and Ginn hauled in a bomb. Not sure what else could have been done. So stop throwing to them and bring in a rookie and a not so confident CM? ok.

It's an issue because we let a bad team stick around, a better team with an average kicker would have made us pay.

The offensive line allowed 3 3rd down sacks by the same player, if we don't get more people involved it will eventually bite us when Defenses figure out we only throw to Thomas and Kamara.

If we follow the same game plan of feeding #13 and #41 then we can't count on their kicker to help us win the game. We have to convert on third downs and get touch downs more often than last year or this year either if we want to play post season football. That is why we took a chance on Coleman and have eased him into the game slowly.

And why is it that you think Meredith is not confident? Where are you coming up with this stuff?

The Browns are not a bad team. They have a damn good defense and some solid weapons. Evidence is they are not getting blown out by the likes of Antonio Brown and Ju Ju, Brees and Co. They are right on the edge of turning it around which they did this week.



They have a better record than us. They can hang with anyone.

Where is the evidence. What you are concerned about is losing your stupid $20 bet. I never bet against him or for him. There is no evidence he will be involved in the offense other than a token catch or two. He is a non factor.

If you want to believe he is going to be some super WR2 then go right ahead. Nothing is saying that is going to happen. Go watch his highlights from over a YEAR ago. He was WIDE open because the team sucked. It was garbage time and they ignored him. None of what he did was in tight coverage. He also showed no blocking ability. If you want to ignore that then go ahead. Reality is he is healthy and still a non factor.

There are a couple of WR's ahead of him as of today. That is the reality of the situation. He can work out with the starters all he wants. It still has not manifested on the actual field. If it does not happen there then the closer you get to losing your bet. I'm done with this 5th WR nonsense if you think he is going to blow up then congrats. You won the lottery if that happens.

You really never answered my question about why you are so sure he would not be confident.

Now, let's take on your argument that he is no good.

He was WIDE open because the team sucked.
Excuse me? That make no sense whatsoever. If his team sucked it would be more likely that he wouldn't be open. I really don't remember the Bears being an offensive machine recently. Could it be he was wide open because he is able to run precise routes (which has been one of his accolades)?

Reality is he is healthy and still a non factor.
It's hard to be a factor until he finally gets into the game. I really don't see any logical point here.

There are a couple of WR's ahead of him as of today.
You may be right on this. Michael Thomas and marginally Ted Ginn. I have a feeling that Smith and Meredith will be firmly planted as the #2 and #3 before the season is over.

I never thought I’d ever see a debate about whether or not we should get excited for Brees to have another weapon.

Guido is on the verge of losing a bet. That is why he keeps pounding on it.

CM played on a garbage team. Most of his highlights are garbage time. I followed that effort and also the highlights. All garbage time. One TD, he did nothing but stand there and let it bounce off the helmet of another player. He didn't even move. Maybe that was his role, but he stood there. It went right into his hands.

End of the day he has done nothing going into week 3. ZERO. It's not any harder than that. Now, MI is about to be inserted. There is no path forward for CM or even Smith contributing beyond a catch or two barring injury which...is how CM got on the radar in the first place. It was not because of skill. A lot of people ignore that aspect. The Bears had nobody left.

Wow!

You are way into hate for our free agent WR.

Settle down. Breath deep. God forbid Meredith comes in and actually produces. We may have to put you on suicide watch.



I really don't get your hatred toward our new receiver. I have a simple bet saying that Meredith plays more than eight games. Big deal.

You at every possible opportunity posts that his is nothing more than a garbage time player.

What is your problem? Seriously.
