Good pickup for Chitown.

Re: Taylor a Bear

Damn it

I really wanted him

Maybe the Pats will sign somebody before they have to resort to picking from the bottom of the barrel

Re: Taylor a Bear

Bears agreed to terms with RB Chester Taylor on a four-year, $12.5 million contract, including $7 million guaranteed.

Matt Forte becomes a committee back at best, and it's believed he may even lose his starting job after a sophomore slide. Mar. 5 - 2:02 pm et

Bears going for an SB

Re: Taylor a Bear

you know it's a carzy year when a 30 year old 3rd down back gets 7 million up front. and all most 4 million a year.

Re: Taylor a Bear

Wow. That will be one nasty backfield with Forte and Taylor in it. I would have liked to see the Pats make a play for him but oh well. I've been told in another thread that I'm nothing but a worry wart and that there is a lot of free agency to go.

Their QB is still VERY questionable.

LOL.

A "nasty" backfield. Really?

This ain't the Bears angling for a Super Bowl. This is Lovie Smith angling to keep his job.

$7m guaranteed for a soon to be 31 year old RB who puts the ball on the ground.

Wow.

Yes. Forte is a very promising RB and Taylor is pretty good as well. That's going to be a good backfield. Not sure what is so hard to understand about that. Surely you wouldn't put the Patriots RBBC backfield up against them, would you?

I guess if you think Matt Forte is a good RB, it's no surprise you'd be of this opinion.

It's a decent backfield, sure. Nothing more, nothing less. If Taylor and Morris could stay healthy, you'd bet I'd prefer the Pats' RBBC.

Re: Taylor a Bear

I agree that Matt Forte is talented RB, but this is a stupid signing. What the Bears clearly need is people to open holes for the guys they already have.

Re: Taylor a Bear

Tough call. Forte is good. Solid in 08. Decent last year.

Pats have more quality depth but the top 2 for Da Berz may be a tad better than the top 2 for the Pats..

Mike Martz can and will find a way to ruin it, good luck Chester!

Wow.

Two lost fumbles in the past two years is bad?

If the Bears don't upgrade the OL it doesn't really matter.

Agree, Lions have the same problem.
