Merry Christmas Eve everybody! Let's hope for some good games!
Carolina - at a glance that pick cannot be worse than #9. With a loss to Green Bay today, that would clinch the pick as no worse than #4 - and would eliminate the Bears own pick from any chance at being #1.
With a GB win and Washington winning at the Jets (it's possible, as the Jets suck) - that would clinch a top #3 pick from Carolina. I think we all agree top 3 is the initial key - which guarantees you one of the top QB's or MHJ - assuming all 3 come out.
Justin Fields - he goes from facing the #1 defense, to one of the worst. He will probably have one of his big games today. I expect a Bears win and Fields to re-ignite this big QB debate even further.
Finally - with some of the rumblings about Mike Tomlin possible replacing Flus in the off-season. I would be all for that - as long as they don't give up more than a 2nd round pick. His time in Pittsburgh seems to have run it's course, but that doesn't mean a move to a young team possibly on the cusp might not re-ignite him.
