Cygnus simply doesn’t know football if he says Briggs is overrated. Like everything Grimace said, and the simple fact of watching the guy, he’s one of the best 4-3 OLB in the game. But a will linebacker isn’t going to turn a defense into a power by himself, which is why you’ve seen the drastic decline in the Bears D without Urlacher and with a bi-polar Tommie Harris.

It would be nice to have had Briggs at the time but I am pretty happy with our LB core.

He accused the 49ers of making him think he’d be going to San Francisco and then “pulling out on me at the last minute.”
That’s what she said.

CYGNUS, you’re crazy… Since the “tampering” Briggs has been to the Pro-Bowl twice, led the league in Pass Deflections for LBs in 2008, 2nd in the league in INTs for a LB in 2008, 13th in the league in solo tackles in 2008 and is currently 7th in the league for solo tackles for a LB…
…overated?!?! Not likely, more like the only solid player on Chicago’s defense. Watch Thursdays game and pay attention to how many time you see Briggs making a play or being a part of the play…

the way he has played I am sure the 9er’s are happy he stayed in chicago.seriously for all the money he is being paid what have the bears got to show for it?if he was better than urlacher then why hasn’t he steped up since he went down?can you say overated?bet those people who said brian was washed up feel pretty stupid right now.they are not even an average team defensivly without urlacher.

I think it had more to do with Goodell having said that the punishment given to the Niners would be greater if they did sign him. Goodell is a rotten bastard who is currently playing favorites with his buddies, the Jets.
