If his on field production wasn’t a fireable offense on its own merit, not giving up 56 to Quinton Nelson is.
Every Dante Fowler pass rushing snap over the last two games. His only pressure during this span was when he was matched up against the Chargers fullback (No. 30).

Fowler must have some dirt on Schneider bc he gets no snaps, no sacks, wouldn’t give up the jersey number to a hall of fame player who was brought in to fix the offense, and is somehow still on the team.
Here’s the #Seahawks’ new All-Pro left guard. A day and a half after arriving in Seattle, 8-year veteran Quenton Nelson comes out for his first NFL practice not with the Indianapolis Colts. @933KJR

Nelson, Sundell, and Zabel controlling the LOS together
Mike Macdonald confirms that Quenton Nelson will play left guard for the Seahawks -- the only position he's played in the NFL -- and that Grey Zabel will move to right guard.

Can’t be worse than Fowler, no? Revenge game motivation + some insight into the defense’s scheme and nuances and let him prove himself to stay on the roster for the rest of the season?
Sources: The #Bears are releasing DE Jamree Kromah. The 26-year-old was a preseason star and one of Chicago’s highest-graded defenders in each of the last two weeks. However, the Bears needed the roster spot after trading for Jeffery Simmons.

Feel like you can really feel the lack of leadership in that building the way Woolen is expressing frustration while answering these questions. You can also tell with the sloppiness of his technique and focus on the field too.

Pete and Mike have really done a tremendous job of keeping him inside the guardrails wrt to those things but given how things got here it was clear Mike did not want to keep spending the energy required to keep him on the straight and narrow.

Eagles defense sold in the second half last game, that is a team no longer playing for each other or their coaches. The worst environment he could be in. Woolen is a type of player who needs structure to thrive imo

The BTS of how the Jeffery Simmons deal came together, according to multiple league sources. Having checked in with the Titans several times over the last couple weeks, the message was he’s not available. But this is a reminder, as one team said: “Everyone has a price.” The reality is that these two GMs — Mike Borgonzi and Ryan Poles — know each other from their days together in Kansas City. The Bears, according to multiple sources, made a push for DeForest Buckner as well, but didn’t feel comfortable with the draft capital Indy wanted. Instead, they then pivoted to arguably the best DT in football in Simmons, with the feeling that he changes the entire complexion of the defense and makes them a bona fide Super Bowl threat. After hearing from as many as 3 other teams inquiring on Simmons, the Titans simply felt that Chicago’s offer had reached a price where “we could not say no anymore.” That’s when this thing became serious, and that’s why it happened so quickly.
BREAKING: Titans are trading Jeffery Simmons to the Bears, per sources.

This is the talk of a GM who got an offer he simply couldn’t refuse.
Mike Borgonzi said Jeffery Simmons didn't want to leave and was surprised by the trade.

Didn’t read past the first sentence but what I can surely tell you is that college kids will be trolling you into submission from here on out. You Streisand effected yourself and amplified it by sending the ESPN execs after the schools lmao you’re image is perma-fried.
It’s been a fun October.. excited to get to Halloween. Here’s a couple fun screenshots from this month. I don’t know if Karey from Derry is real or not but, the picture on the left is from a very real man in Ohio. I’ve stayed away from my mentions and DM’s this month since these back to back days but.. I’m sure if I went in there now, I’d find some wishes for and threats of death for me. “Don’t read them.” They’re everywhere. Annnd.. They still exist though right? I just don’t know the person is in Ohio then? That’s where I’m at now. So I do get a bit fucked up when a couple days after The New York Times releases a “WE ARE ALLOWED TO AND SHOULD HATE THIS GUY” piece, a University puts a video out from their own page, indicating “we think he’s a corny creep here.” It’s a weird time. The things that get said about what my daughter and son and wife deserve are all rather wild as well. I haven’t talked to anybody about what the days were like leading up to Tennessee’s GameDay last year. There’s been some misreporting but in the ball park articles. Everybody in the “security” world was worried of a copycat incident potentially happening. GameDay was a few days out and we were the next huge gathering on a campus. The world, in front of the entire internet, just proved that we had gotten to a rather extreme place. The FBI.. alongside, Disney security, Tennessee State Police, Knoxville PD, University Police, everybody in area, all had the very same goal to protect the shit out of the area. FBI snipers were sent down there, huge presence of police.. it was a surreal moment. The conversation about the death threats I had been receiving in life was definitely a huge topic. I don’t think it was the FBI that suggested the Bullet Proof Vest, but it was certainly an idea presented by one of the security groups. We had no idea what to expect. Nobody had been in that type of situation before. Everybody wanted the best for everybody. I never felt safer and never felt more appreciative of the people that were around me that morning including the students that came out and did WAY more than they could’ve ever imagined for my soul. How’d we get here? I had to wrestle with that a bit. FBI’s sending snipers so me and the lads don’t get shot. That’s crazy. I don’t know if they teach how you’re supposed to handle these types of things in classes or something but, I was a bit rattled by the current reality of my World. I think what I realized was, when I talked about the Algerian Olympic Gold Medal boxer, and then I was HEADLINE Quoted and Captioned by platforms with rather large influence over certain communities, they left out the massive empathy part of the conversation that I had about the entire subject. I was labeled and immediately targeted. Such is life I guess.. since then, every mistake, misstep or misquote relaunches A LOT of folks into a frenzy of me being the worst person on Earth who needs to be eliminated, and they gain more and more folks who want me unalived or as they actually say it “Kirked.” I was created on the internet. I’ve been “cooked” and shit talked and criticized since I have memories. I am no where near perfect.. and there’s no way everybody is gonna agree with me but I had no idea that this is just what life would become. I’m trying my best in real time but.. I am to talk about sports and care about the future of sports. I owe everything to sports. I’m grateful as hell to do what I do. I literally try to love every minute of the incredible opportunities I get to experience but.. it’s certainly all a much different life than I could’ve ever expected. I try to give everything I have, all the time.. I am very sorry to those that despise me. The video is how I opened The Tennessee show.. I put on a USA Sports Coat and celebrated Ball. I love sports because it’s unifying. That’s all I’m ever trying to be… actually. & Connor.. I LOVE YOU BROTHER, I’m sorry I’ve brought you lads into all of this as well.

Pat McAfee wouldn’t last a day having the DMs and mentions of a local female sports reporter. TV or beat writer.

The Bears should really ease in their newly acquired elite defensive tackle. It’s gonna be a very long season, the last thing you’d want is him hesitating on the field due to 3 days notice of a new playbook and team. Give him a full week and a half of game prep for Week 9.
Jeffery Simmons since 2025 (DT ranks): 🔹15.0 sacks (1st) 🔹23 TFL (1st) 🔹85 pressures (T-1st)* 🔹28 pressures after double team (1st)* 🔹31 quick pressures (1st)* 🔹6 turnovers caused by pressure (1st)* 🔹9.5 sacks on 3rd down (1st) *Per @NextGenStats
