How do you or i know what the wrs will do this year? Did anyone hear of Antonio Freeman, Robert Brooks, Donald Driver before they had their chances to play.

I just don't think they should ever say negative about another team. It really took me by surprise to hear it from Driver, he is usually quiet. It struck me wrong is all, but then again he might be upset that "HIS GUY" will be quarterbacking the Vikes this year 😛
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

What was he SUPPOSED to say???
"The Bears have a GREAT receiveing corp, and will dominate this year".???
I mean......half way through that he would have bust out laughing!

He was probably asked a question and because he's a laid back, genuine sort of guy, gave an honest answer.

I would say he was pretty generous, they have an ageing and creaking D and the OLine is mediocre.

The Bears receiving corps have enough bulletin board material to fill their locker room from every NFL media outlet in the land. Driver's measured comments aren't going to whip them into a frenzy.

Maybe he wants to play for the Bears and is trying to drum up interest. lol

If what driver said about the bears is talking shit ... I wonder what guys just saying the bears suck $%^ $%^&; what this would be called.

It would be just like saying the pack had a good O last year especially thier passing game; but their rush defense and QB rushing needs some work. Like ya ...

Since others have already said what I would've said about the Driver comment, I have to ask: What other comments about other teams have Packer players made recently that you consider to be unwise?

I really can't think of any. I don't remember any "We're gonna kick (insert team name) their butts!"

Although I do not agree that this is trash talk....

Hazer has a point. One hell of a point.

There are a hell of a lot of people who read P.F.T. I am sure all of the Bears W.R. do, and Jay Cutler is going to use this in the huddle I am sure in both games against the Packers.

Donald Driver issues thumbs down on Bears' wideouts

Posted by Aaron Wilson on July 16, 2009 9:45 PM ET

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Donald Driver knows what an effective receiving corps is supposed to look like: dangerous, consistent and productive.

In a blunt comment that's certain to become bulletin-board material in the Chicago Bears' locker room, Driver gave a candid assessment of the Bears' receivers during an interview with NFL Sirius Radio, per Bob Wolfley of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.

"I think Chicago did a great job, and Lovie Smith went out there and got Jay Cutler to lead this team, but one thing they don't have is they don't have the receiver group," Driver said. "They have the running back, they have the offensive line and they have a great defense.

"But you're going to have to need receivers to make plays down the field, and they don't have that right now."



After careful reflection on this... I originally disagreed with Hazers post... But he is right.

It may not be trash talk, and perhaps the thread title was not correct.

However it is bulletin board material and motivation the Bears Not Need Have twice this year.

Hazer has a valid point.

I do not believe in bulletin material. If you need something like this to get you more motivated, especially playing a division rival, you shouldn't be playing in the NFL. Bulletin board material is used more in the media than it is in the locker room.

Yeah, where would they want to put this anyway, the 9th bulletin board? That's how much they'll need if are actually going to fall back on all those reports on a bad receiving core.

Of course, if they make it, it will be 'due to being the underdog' and this will be a great story. They will talk about coming out of nowhere, being motivated by this material, someone will make a witty comment about not being who they though they where and it will go down as a win for motivational gurus. Even though it had nothing to do with any of this stuff, but just of unexpected good rookie play and Hester's hands not being made of bricks anymore.

If not, and this is most likely, everyone will say that the Bears should've picked up a Torry Holt or a Marvin Harrison and Driver's comment will be forgotten.
