If the Chicago Bears were to adopt a song from the rock band Aerosmith, what would it be? Dream on? Which makes sense the way the Bears franchise is run. It’s the same old Bears song and dance as I added the Bears to the title of the Aerosmith song I’m choosing. We can spin the wheel of meats and land on liver every time with all of the Midway Monsters problems. Today I’m talking about lack of weapons of mass destruction that Justin Fields has in his arsenal. Bears continue to find their receiver solution from a game of bologna darts seen on the Howard Stern show. Bears have been collecting castaways from around the league to fill in their receiver position. Latest trade has Bears sending a round 7 pick. At least it is not a number 1 to the New England Patriots for N’Keal Harry.

N’Keal Harry is 24 years old & was drafted by the New England Patriots back in 2019, 25th overall in the first round out of Arizona State University. Harry had promising back to back years of 1,000 receiving yards for the Sun Devils. Bears would be getting a nice big target for quarterback Justin Fields as Harry stands at 6’4″ at 225 lbs. Bears usually are known for picking rotten fruit or picking up the dented can at the market. Harry’s rookie season injuries haunted the young wide-out limiting him to 7 games where he caught 12 balls. In 2020, Soft Cam Newton relied on Harry as his second or third target on the field. Harry’s numbers went up with 33 catches, 309 receiving yards, and a pair touch downs. Bears know how to pick receivers as Harry wanted to be traded out of New England before the 2021 season. Bringing back memories of Cedric Benson’s hold out for the Bears. More injuries for Harry in the 2021 season and being in Head Coach Bill Belichick’s dog house limited his playing time to 12 games which resulted in only 12 catches for 184 yards.

The Bears cleaned house last season as they hired a new General Manager and Head Coach. The Bears have gone from wide receivers that take their emotions out on the field and let the opposing team get inside their head to earn stupid penalties. We all remember the likes of Javon Wims and Anthony Miller in two separate games versus the Saints, punching corner back C.J Gardner-Johnson and being ejected from the game. The Bears new regime has been collecting castaway receivers from other teams that have been in some trouble right after signing a deal in Chicago.

Bryon Pringle “Mr. Potato Chip” is a former Chiefs return specialist and wide receiver caught with a suspended drivers license doing donuts in a parking lot with his kid inside the car. Pringle signed a one year deal with the Bears and has been charged with reckless driving. Pringle had 42 catches last season from his quarterback Patrick Mahomes for 568 yards with 5 touchdowns. Career-wise, Pringle has 67 grabs for 898 yards with seven touchdowns. Pringle is only 28 years old & has potential but is questionable off the field. Then the Bears are taking a chance on David Moore who has been in the league for six seasons and on a few different teams. Moore is 27 years old, started with Seattle, then moved on to Denver, and then latched on to Green Bay. Moore, another brainiac, was caught sleeping in a Taco Bell drive thru after signing a deal to play for the Bears. That was a costly nap as police found drugs with the regular hand gun that stays close to the stash which will ring Moore up for drug and weapon charges. In Moore’s NFL career so far, he has caught 78 balls for 1,163 yards with 13 touchdowns. Bears new Offensive Coordinator has ties with Moore from Green Bay and another wide out, Equanimeous St. Brown, who also signed with with the team. St. Brown so far is the only good citizen out of the new arrivals coming to Chicago. St. Brown is 25 years old & another big target for Justin Fields as he stands 6’5″ and had only 9 grabs for 98 yards last season. In three seasons, St. Brown has caught 37 balls for 543 yards with one touchdown.

Ryan Poles, the new GM of the Bears, is like the Lion, Moon Racer, in the Christmas Special, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Instead of toys for the Island of Misfit Toys he is collecting receivers that no one wants and bringing them to a place where receivers go to die. Chicago!! Bears will back up their signings because it’s who you know. Luke Getsy is tied to Equanimeous St. Brown and David Moore who was the offensive coordinator in Green Bay before coming to the Bears this season. Bryon Pringle has ties to Poles who also hailed from the Kansas City organization. Even with the addition of N’Keal Harry, Darnell Mooney is the best receiver on the Bears roster. Mooney is not a number one guy though. Mooney is number two or a slot guy that can go over the middle and get those tough first downs on 3rd down. Bears are playing the numbers as they hope one or perhaps two of these guys can stick. Is this the best method to build up a young quarterback’s confidence? Justin Fields in his second year could have major problems and take a step backwards, lose confidence, and become another first round bust. First year with Mitch Trubisky the Bears may have had their worst receiving group ever. Jay Cutler did not have weapons when they first traded for the gunslinger from Denver. I still do not trust the Bears offensive line to be able to keep Fields standing the entire season. I don’t want a guy like Harry who will collect more injuries on the field than catches. Harry wanting out of New England tells me the Patriots camp was too hard for him. Many players say Bill Belichick is a bastard, his program is tough, and you have to have discipline to get through a typical season. If Harry came without wanting out AND had a shirt that said “I survived Belichick’s football camp and all I got was this stinking tee shirt,” then bravo he may be a piece the team could use. Bears head coach Matt Eberhaus is a defensive minded coach. We could see the Bears defense return as one of the better units in the league. A new staff inheriting Justin Fields with a bunch of nobodies to throw to, we may be looking for yet another guy behind center in 2023. The Bears season just turned “harrier” as we speak.
