If the Bears lose

[cymatica]

Do you still want Seattle to win?

Do you still want Seattle to win?

Absolutely...win it for Pete!

Do you still want Seattle to win?

Why would I ever want them to lose?

 

[cdn hawk fan]

Either way the organization hopefully will review the future of this team. If no playoffs because this team could not take care of business should again fall on Pete’s shoulders.
there has been no accountability for the past number of years.

 

[cymatica]

Why would I ever want them to lose?

Because if they have no shot at the playoffs, why not hope for a better draft pick?

A better draft slot is not a guarantee of a better draft pick.

For two years straight we could be just above .500. Is this the direction management wants to keep seeing or is it time for change.
pete has brought a lot of success but this team has not advanced far in the playoffs in a long time

because I want Pete and this terrible staff to kick rocks.

I just asked the question in the other thread: How many draft spots do we lose if we win and the Packers win?

 

[Double Tribble]

I read that we could have a top ten pick if the Bears lose and we lose. If the Bears lose and we win, I think it would be a roughly 15-19 pick.

Nope, if out of the playoffs it’s on to next year. Take the loss and improved draft position. Plus Cards get a worse slot.

That’s not even remotely guaranteed

Yes. Send him off with a win. Pats couldn't do it for Bill, but the Seahawks can do it for Pete!

If bears lose then I want to lose. No one in 2 years will remember or care if we beat the 4-12 cards in the final game.

Only losers hope to lose. That's why they're called losers. If you wanna be one, feel free.

Or it can be seen as winning in the draft position, possibly even winning with a coach change. It's a matter of perspective.

"Winning in the draft position" is a flippin' participation trophy.

So barely squeaking by a bad team just to miss the playoffs

Is an actual win, and not a participation trophy.
