I meant to say, Eddie Royal is a better route runner than both of them.

All this Hester bashing as a receiver is total crap. be honest people, the Bears organization is as much to blame as anyone for Hester’s lackluster WR career.

Even further honesty would help you all recall that our offense has pretty much stunk it up all togather. Well finally get to see Hester as a WR, not Hester as someone being thrown into that #1 position because Angelo sucks at drafting WR’s.

Hester has been a product of poor drafting and a lack of offensive creativity, finally this year he will get a more meaningful 20-25 snaps as part of a receiving core and not, “Oh please Devin, save the world by yourself!”

oh please; this is just Brandon Marshall doing lip service to make Hester feel like he is still relevant to the Bears.

Fact is; Hester has no hands, runs poor routes and is gun shy – with the addition of Jeffery and Marshall in Chicago and Bennett in the slot, the WR experiment in Chicago is officially over – amen.

Hester will be riding pine or out of the league in two more years – mark it.

Funny how everyone just talks about Marshall’s drops but since he’s been in TE league he is SECOND in Receptions and 5th in yards. Why is everyone ignoring that? I don’t care if he drops some balls since he’s going to make up for it and the proof is in the stats. Also Cutler lobbied for the Bears to get Marshall, Cutler knows how to work with this guy. Also it’s going to be Tice calling the plays, not Bates. Bears are going to be good this year. I think Hester will have a big year since he won’t be the go to guy anymore and won’t have #1 cb’s covering him.

@mfclock

Eddie Royal had one decent season, his rookie one. Since then the only thing he’s been notable for is enraging whatever fantasy football nerds took him in their draft.

Unless Marshall gets him killed by spraying bubbly on gang bangers at the club… <<<

TEBOW's GONNA GET YOU!!!!
For making humor out of a mans death!!! And making it seem as though Brandon Marshall was responsible!!! Something he has always taken responsibility for and is likely a huge reason for his history of mental instability!!! Have you ever mouthed of to the wrong guy & got your buddy shot & killed?!?! Please send me the specifics so I can make a big joke out of your involvement in his death!!!

Most of the readers on this site are happy to give Marshall a Mulligan every time he strikes a female. What with him facing his mental illness so courageously and all. What a joke.

Assuming that Hester catches the ball when it comes his way, its pretty safe to say he’ll have a bigger year than Marshall.

Are you serious? Your username should be “not really a man”. A real man would never lay even a finger on a woman, ever…period. Sounds like you’ve had your ass whooped by a lady and you are spiteful. I wish we could get together and talk. Then by the end of our conversation, you will never be able to lift you arms, to be able to touch a woman. Would you want someone to shove your daughter (I doubt u would ever have one)? I still can’t believe someone actually wrote this.

Hester will probably have a better year, mostly b/c BM will miss a handful of games due to suspension

Brandon Marshall will lead all NFL receivers in one stat column… drops. He dropped 3 TD’s against the Jets in one game last year. I’m guessing they don’t check for stickum in the Pro Bowl. I’m glad Marshall and that traveshamockery they call the Pro Bowl are out of Miami.

It will be difficult for Marshall to catch passes after he is restrained in a strait jacket.

Does this mean Hester will have more drops than Marshall??

If Bates is calling the plays all you Chicago fans better be ready for the “Sluggo fade to the sideline” timing routes every time you have 3rd and short. Never seen anyone have so much faith in such a low percentage play, but time and again he did this during his short stay in Seattle. PC finally got fed up and showed him the door.

Hester can be very dangerous on offense. He’s never been utilized correctly. I doubt he’ll put up numbers better than Marshall, but I’m hoping it’ll be his best year. I hope it’ll be everyone on The Bears best year.

to you people bagging on hester as a reciever have you watched the offenses he has played in? under ron turner his #1 play was a wide reciever screen,not a couple of times a game but every pass thrown to him. now explain how he is suppose to make big plays when the defense knows the play is coming and has 5 guys there waiting for him? under martz it was not much better but hopefully this is the year the bears run a real offense and not one that has not worked since 1999 and only on turf. he should have a good year with teams concentrating on Marshall and jeffert. I don’t think he will lead the team in cateches though,that will belong to bennent who catches everything Cutler throws to him and should be open allot with the outside guys covered.

LOL ! Keep in mind he is “openly, mentally ill” I will guarantee this guy will cause more harm than good. He was targeted 58% of all passing downs by the Dolphins and had some serious drops ( 2 easily could haveen been game winning TD’s). He put up ProBowl numbers and where did that Miami? Good riddance… The days of the #1 Diva Receiva is over. The new NFL is about Committee, spreading the ball around to Seam TE’s, Speedy RB’s on delay and swings and the new hybrid Fullback/HBack/TE. He should expect double teams and when he isnt getting enough targets the Bears should expect trouble in Huddle. Finally, Bears Fans should expect sorry for having so much hope on a Bum! Not slamming the Bears (actually like them if I had to pick a Team in the NFC North), but it is reality. I gave my ” New Marshall in Town” Teal/Orange T-Shirt to the Goodwill a long time ago.

eddie royal is better than both of them but we’ll never see it again – instead of signing with the skins where shanny knows how to use him, royal went to the chargers

I actually agree that Hester should have his best season this year. Not because he’s better, but because Marshall + Jeffery should take up a lot of attention and leave Hester with the 3rd or 4th best cover guy on a lot of his snaps

Notice he never said he didnt hit the woman… just that he didnt “ball up his fist” and hit her.

That doesnt mean he didnt “open hand” shove her in the face…

just sayin

Hester will have a good year, but not bigger than Marshall.
Hester will have mismatches with the focus being on Marshall, Jeffery and Bennett. I’ve never been more excited about a Bears O in my life.
