Behind the Garage: Sports Talk

 Who won the trade during the most recent NFL off season the Detroit Lions or the Los Angles Rams? The rams traded a second round pick and Jarod Goff for Matthew Stafford from the lions. The lions are currently performing way worse than the rams so this could be a sign that they won the trade, but the question is how long will the rams be good. Some would say that the rams team is built to win now, and if they don't they will be a bad team for a long time while they rebuild. Was it smart to try and build a team that can win now, or is it smarter to do what the Lions did and try to get a decent player and draft picks to build a strong team for years to come. Overall it looks like Matt Stafford has been out performing Goff greatly this season so it seems like that the Rams won the trade, but we will not know for years to come to see how the draft picks pan out. The debate will last until either the rams win the super bowl this year, or Jarod Goff becomes MVP, both are very unlikely s...

So I know that the last few weeks in the NFL my picks have been pretty good, but sometimes second opinions are great to listen to. Here is a link to the Barstool Sports advisors show. This is a great platform to go to for sports picks and analysis. The show is entertaining and gives good advice from different perspectives since there is three of them on the show. They also give picks and advice on all of the games that are going to be played on Sunday. Dave Portnoy said "unsolicited picks win 100% of the time", they want you to win so you keep using their platform. So regardless of who you are a fan of or want to bet on this week, they have an answer for you. The show also tracks their bets so you can see their Year to Date winnings or losses, this enables users to "fade" or bet against someone who has lost a lot recently. It also gives people the opportunity to see who's been "hot" recently so you can bet with them. I talked about their sports book in...

 After week 4 there has been some ups and down for us Bears fans. At this point I think we are all in agreement that Nagy needs to be fired. After some of his play call decisions and waiting this long to start Justin Fields I have began to question if he even the desire to win this year, and not just want to tank for a better draft pick. After watching the Bears for the last few weeks I have noticed that our defense has still continued to do most of the work, and in most cases has won us the only game we have won. I think that the Bears need to focus more on their coaching rather than their players since every week the studs on the team continue to perform well. It seems like we are on the tail end years of having one of the best defenses in the league, and we have nothing to show for it. My current analysis of the bears is that we are focusing too much on player development, when we already have good players. We need to put them to use and trust them a little. I've been watching t...
