Adrian Peterson is backpacking his team as a running back. Once again, he almost broke Dickerson's record. He had no business being at the level he was playing at.

That's why he deserves the MVP

[NateyB24]

So what do you guys think about Osi in the Off Season? I wouldn't of done this before but now with Clemons with that major injury i think we should.

[Seattle4Ever]

It's even worse of an idea now, I think. He's only getting older.

We can find DE help later in the draft.

[NateyB24]

He will be 32 same age as Clemons though and i don't think he is going to get some huge contract.

Clemons won't be around for that much longer

True, although Clem seems to take care of his body pretty well. Because he relies on his speed and quickness, he may save his body some extra blows from time to time. Figuring his knee heals 100%, I don't see why he'd slow down. Again though, no way to tell with his knee.

Any chance you think Pete and John could trade a draft pick for another guy to compete with Irvin and Clem? They had no trouble in identifying that Clem was a perfect fit for our defense.

If they do I'd think it'd be in a later round. Every position is a competition.

Maybe Bingo or Okafor. Or we can save the picks and get Freeny?

Woah... I just reread the trade for Clem.

We gave up Tapp, the Eagles gave us Chris and a 4th. Winning.

Yeah we killed them with that one. I know hindsight is 20/20, but I would have never ever ever ever thought Tapp was worth a 4th alone.

Does anyone know who we drafted with that 4th rd pick??? He is the HIGHEST drafted player in the Pete/John era no longer on the team. E.J. Wilson (DE, UNC)

[Seattle4Ever]

I remember him. He didn't fare so well. That was actually a weird pick now that I look back on it.

Bears will meet again with Seahawks OC Darrell Bevell and Montreal HC Marc Trestman, first 2 candidates to be identified as Bears finalists.

Not a huge Bevell guy so doesn't bother me too much.

[Seattle4Ever]

Well if Russell Wilson doesn't want to lose him, then I won't want to lose him. He really hasn't done anything to warrant people not liking him

The only reason Wilson struggled a bit in the first couple games is because we wanted to ease him in and keep a lid on him. Pete has even talked about their little plan. I like Bevell and hope he stays. If he leaves, it isn't the end of the world.

I think the most important thing here is: Don't fix what ain't broke.
