Bears went 5-11 and finished last in NFC North for fourth straight year William Perry Jersey , then fired coach John Fox after three losing seasons. GM Ryan Pace got contract extension through 2021 and hired Andy Reid protege Matt Nagy as new head coach, hoping he can get most out of QB Mitchell Trubisky. Wide receivers were major weakness, with Cameron Meredith (left knee) out for season and Kevin White (shoulder) sidelined most of year. Chicago’s leading receiver was Kendall Wright – now with Minnesota – with 59 receptions for 614 yards. RBs Jordan Howard (1,122 yards), Tarik Cohen (370 yards rushing, 353 receiving) were formidable tandem, though Howard struggled to catch passes. Bears’ defense ranked 10th overall despite injuries to several key players, including LB Leonard Floyd.THEY NEED: OL, WR http://www.thebearslockerroom.com/authentic-mike-ditka-jersey , DL, LB, DB.THEY DON’T NEED: QB, TE, P.POSSIBLE FIRST PICK: G Quenton Nelson, Notre Dame; LB Roquan Smith, Georgia.OUTLOOK: Pace’s No. 1 offseason goal was to surround Trubisky with pieces to help lift franchise with one playoff appearance since 2006 Super Bowl season. Drafting Nelson would fit with that plan, though Smith is potential linchpin defensive player for Monsters of Midway. Bears have hole at guard after declining option on four-time Pro Bowler Josh Sitton. G Kyle Long also recovering from several surgeries. Nelson also played for Bears OL coach Harry Hiestand at Notre Dame. Smith would give Chicago needed playmaker on defense. Bears could use more depth at WR, though signing prized free agent Allen Robinson addressed need for top target. Chicago also brought in Taylor Gabriel and Bennie Fowler while deciding not to match New Orleans’ offer sheet for Meredith.— In two weeks of NFL action Womens Richard Dent Jersey , we’ve already seen two games end up in a tie. The Browns and Steelers in week 1, and the Packers and Vikings in week 2. Two ties is the most that we’ve seen in the NFL since they went to sudden-death overtime in 1974. The Chicago Bears are one of eleven franchises that have never played a tie game, but that doesn’t mean I’m apathetic towards the tie. I think it’s dumb. The current overtime rules for the NFL has them playing a 10 minute quarter (if needed), and a team can only win on the first possession if they score a touchdown. An opening drive field goal no longer ends the game. If a team doesn’t score a TD on their first possession, the other team gets a crack on offense with the ball. If the two teams trade field goals, they play on until the next points are scored (up to 10 minutes).Most people don’t like the way it is now, and that was the FanPulse-wide question posed to all 32 fan-bases this week. The college rules are what more prefer, and in case you didn’t know those rules here they are, courtesy of SB Nation. Each period consists of one possession for each team Dan Hampton Jersey , the order of which is decided by a pre-overtime coin toss.Each possession starts at the defense’s 25-yard line.If the teams remain tied at the end of a period, they play another full period.After each period, the order of possession flips. So if you had the ball first in one period, you have it second in the next.Starting in the third period, teams can no longer kick extra points and must go for two after touchdowns. This is to try and help things wrap up quickly.If you guy haven’t joined WCG’s FanPulse, do it now! It’s simply three questions sent directly to you via email every week, and that’s it. It’s so simple even a Packers’ fan could do it.
