Allen Robinson: “Exciting” to learn a new offense Posted by Josh Alper on April 9, 2018, 6:04 PM EDT Getty Images
Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson is working his way back from the torn ACL that brought his 2017 season to an early end and one might wonder if learning a new offensive system at the same time would be too much for the free agent acquisition.
Robinson doesn’t see things that way. He said it has been “exciting” to learn the system being put in place by Bears head coach Matt Nagy and used the same word to describe what it’s like to work with quarterback Mitchell Trubisky on getting the scheme down pat.
“It’s been exciting,” Robinson said, via the team’s website. “We both have been born into this on the same page as far as learning a new system. I think that’s special in itself because we can just talk about certain things as we go. He’s a young guy and I think that’s really good as well. For me being 24 years old, we both kind of have that eager energy as far as coming into this situation and learning the system.”
Another thing Robinson might be excited about is the role he figures to play in the Chicago offense this season. He was signed to front a receiving corps that underwhelmed last season and should get plenty of chances to show that he’s all the way back from the injury once the Bears get on the field for game action.
Too damned bad he wasn't here last year. This offense is going to take some hard work to learn. If he had been here last year, he could have had it down quick. Run, Run 3 yard Pass and Punt (the Fox RR3PP Super Bowl offense).
If he could just have gotten his 3 yard game down, he could have been a star.
Everyone that has spoken about this offense is excited. I can not wait to see this thing unfold. It may even be bigger than the Hester package. ok... ok.... I know. I just got carried away there.

Just about anything would be bigger than the Hester Package. Have we ever seen the Infamous Hester Package in play? I don't recall it, if so, it was so super secret it was invisible even when it was used.
(Of course, I would never tell Mr. Hester in person that just about anything was bigger than his package.)

Are you accusing him of having mouse nuts?
No. compared to a shrew, mouse nuts are YUUUUUGE. I'm saying a bonsai tree is much smaller than an oak tree.

You have obviously delved into the realm of testicular comparisons in the animal world far more than I have. You did shame me into looking into this (God knows why I find time for this and not stuff I actually have to do), and did find that Bush Crickets have testicles that are 14% of it's body weight. Of course, anything that is connected to a bush needs to be equipped to handle the challenge.
I bow to your encyclopedic reservoir of animal testicula.
EDIT: If this isn't the best football board to learn new stuff and be the life of the party, I certainly don't know what is!

Holy Sperm Bank, Batman! That's almost 27 pounds of testicles on a human being! I can't imagine walking around with two 13-pounders.
Stuff you have to do will get done one way or another. It's what you do with everything else that matters.
