Does anybody else think she looks a little like Stephanie Swift?
 
Lance Briggs wants a trade from Chicago?

Hey Denver... your defense sucks, and you won't do anything with Tim Tebow, sooooooo... throw in a pick and your problems are solved!!!
 
Pretty good predictions, I like to see some game action before I decide that far down the road, there is a reason they play the games!

Damn. You really put your money where your mouth is, eh?

Lance Briggs is a bitch. Wasn't he causing a stink a few years ago too? Let's see how good he is when he's not playing opposite Urlacher. :1orglaugh

That's a good point. He's a good player but he benefits greatly playing next to Urlacher and particularly in the Tampa-2 scheme that the Bear's run. The only thing he does well is tackle, which is important for the weak side LB in the defensive scheme. He doesn't rush the passer and he doesn't get sacks. You could easily plug someone else in his position and they would produce, maybe not Briggs numbers, but they would be serviceable. Although I don't see the Bear's acquiescing to Briggs, for the right price I'd deal him.

Ummm...actually Brings is, or at least was one of the best if not the best coverage linebackers in the NFL. That's important for the weak side linebacker position. I don't know about now that he's a few years older than he was in the past though. For a while it could have been argued that he was better than Urlacher who is was kind of overrated for a time.

As far as him complaining now, didn't he get a very front-loaded and large contract a few year ago? It's not to fair to complain now when you got all your money up front like that and now have to play for a much lower amount per year when you have already made it big with the contract. A player can't expect to have it both ways.

Briggs knew he was gonna try this bullshit when he signed that top-heavy contract. He honestly didn't count on the Bears also knowing that. Does he not have any idea how many D-linemen have left the Bears thinking they were hot ****, only to fall into that deep pit known as obscurity? Not only are starting this bullshit, but you do it A WEEK before the first fucking game??? That's real bitch made, Lance... and you got zero leverage in this ****, homeboy.

Somebody get Denver on the phone.
 
Remember Briggs top loaded contract was due to the Redskins trying to pry him away. Chicago could have let him go and gotten 2 draft picks for him a 1 and a 3.
