00:00Like they they've kind of put him on notice that he can lose his gig as someone who's around it every day

00:06What did it seem like to you?

00:09I got mad. I mean like

00:11It's time to answer the question of nate davis enough pussyfooting around the whole thing

00:16I mean we heard about before back in june. I was talking about this last night on uh

00:22bears training camp live

00:24um

00:25in june maddie bruce kind of slipped up a little bit and

00:29Talked and and gave a bunch of candidates who could play right guard and then towards the end of the answer

00:35or after the answer

00:37Somebody a report. I think it was herb howard

00:40Said oh, so does this mean there's competition at right guard and and uh flue said

00:45Oh, no. No, I mean, he's the guy there. He's there. So, you know, he's there and it was very unconvincing

00:50I just remember leaving the the offseason program thinking huh? There's definitely a story here and then

00:56And then I asked jane waldron publicly

00:59I said is is assuming nate davis is healthy. He's your right guard. He said yes, 100 yes

01:06And then yesterday we get this from flues

01:08Being completely ambiguous and i'm sick of it

01:11Like i'm i'm done with this with like somebody needs to either tell us what's going on

01:16So we don't sit here and speculate and wonder and and somebody and i'm sure the bears are pissed off, too

01:22I'm sure that they've had it as well with nate davis

01:25but there is nothing that is being told to anybody about anything and they're not being straight and I swear to god I

01:32I was talking to somebody out here on the sidelines today and I brought this up as kind of jokingly last year

01:37I might have even brought it up on your show

01:40Like does he have something in his contract where he doesn't have to practice in training camp because it's just uncanny

01:46It's it seems like it's every day and maybe he's injured

01:49Maybe he's not but the whole thing

01:51Out of the mouths of me and the coaching staff and ryan poles has been so ambiguous

01:57And it's time to time to figure this out. It's time to name a center. It's time to name your right guard

02:03It's time to stop playing games with an offensive line

02:06That's supposed to protect the generate if you're going to do things differently

02:10The bears are going to be different this year

02:12Then they need to figure this thing out stat and stop playing games with it because i'm sick of it. Hell. Yeah grody
