    Re: Bears, desperate for a RB, sign ex-Lion Jones

    why would anyone with a brain want to sign alexander? he doesnt have his legs anymore nor does he have his fire to play anymore. in other words, he is soft and a bum.

    as for Jones... not a bad signing i guess. he sucks too, but when healthy sometimes he plays well.
    We're bringing purple back.

    Shaun needs the right system to get back to his previous form.
    I think he still has some game left in him.

    Maybe he has some game left in him, but will he take a gigantic pay cut to show off that game?

    Why does everyone think he sucks?
    He's mediocre at best and that is why he was currently on the market this long.


    He will fit in nicely with what they currently have and get them some hard yardage but I don't see him as any kindof threat/weapon thats for sure.
    Drinking that purple koolaid huh Marr.
    The guys better than average.

    The guy broke a 1,000 yards his rookie season in '04... that's it.

    Since, the closest he's come is 689 yards in '06... and he averages 57.9 yards a game for his career...

    I'd say that's mediocre at best.

    but look at the team he was on.
    A team with a whole slew of 1st round recievers to throw to, no line worth mentioning...
    I'd be surprised if anyone could funcion on that team.
