Bears nominate center Drew Dalman for Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award

The Chicago Bears Have Chosen Their Representative for the Prestigious Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award: Drew Dalman

In a move that highlights the team's commitment to promoting exceptional sportsmanship, the Bears have nominated center Drew Dalman as their candidate for the Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award. The announcement was made by the NFL, which recognizes players who demonstrate outstanding integrity and sportsmanship throughout the season.

Dalan, 27, has been instrumental in transforming the Bears' struggling offensive line into a top-ranked unit according to Pro Football Focus. His remarkable playmaking skills have enabled the team to consistently rank among the league's best in this critical area. What sets Dalman apart is his commitment to playing every snap on his side of the ball this season, showcasing his unwavering dedication and responsibility.

Other notable nominees from around the NFC North include quarterback Jordan Love of the Packers, linebacker Derrick Barnes of the Lions, and right tackle Brian O'Neill of the Vikings. Notably, former Bears pass rusher Khalil Mack is also in the running for the award after making the move to the Chargers.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen won the award last season and has been nominated again, further emphasizing his reputation as an exemplary sportsman on the field. This marks the third consecutive year that the Bears will be represented by a player who embodies the values of sportsmanship.

Although the Bears have not yet seen one of their players take home the Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award since its inception in 2014, Dalman's nomination serves as a testament to his character and commitment to being an outstanding teammate.
 
πŸ€” I'm happy for Drew Dalman getting nominated for this award, but what gets me is that it takes a team effort to make the Bears' offensive line great. It's not like he's going up against a single player who's struggling, he's part of a unit that's come together and played well as a whole.

I also think it's interesting that they're choosing someone who's been playing every snap on their side of the ball this season. That shows a level of commitment and responsibility that I think is really admirable. It's not always easy to put in the work and make sacrifices for your team, but Dalman seems like the kind of guy who would do it without question.

It'll be nice to see him get recognized for it too. Maybe this nomination will help inspire some of his teammates to follow in his footsteps and show even more dedication to their craft πŸ™Œ
 
😊 I think it's so cool that Drew Dalman is getting this award! 🏈 What makes him stand out from all the other nominees? Like, how does he make the team's offense line so strong? πŸ€” And what's up with Khalil Mack going to the Chargers now? Does he want a change of pace or something? πŸš€ I also heard that Josh Allen won this award last season, but did he just coast through it or is there more to him than meets the eye? 🀝
 
idk why dalman gets all this hype πŸ˜’ i mean dont get me wrong he's fine but is it really that notable for playing every snap on his side of the ball πŸ€”? i think its more about the team's overall performance rather than one player's dedication πŸ’― and whats with the bears not winning an art rooney award since its inception? seems kinda fishy 🎣
 
πŸ€” I'm calling BS on this "commitment" everyone's talking about. A guy plays every snap without missing? That sounds like a decent effort, but is it really that remarkable? Can't we get a video of him getting injured or something and show us what he's made of under pressure?

And what's with the lack of info on his teammates? Are they all just as dedicated to their jobs as Dalman? I need some sources to back up these claims before I start buying into this "top-ranked unit" nonsense.

Not to mention, it's not like anyone's ever asked about his off-field stuff. Does he give back to the community? Is he involved in any charitable work? We're just getting a one-sided look at his "sportsmanship" without knowing the whole story. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
 
omg I'm so hyped for Drew Dalman 🀩 he's literally changed the game with that Bears O line πŸ‘Š 3 years straight? I think it's about time someone from the North gets some love πŸ’• Josh Allen is always a solid choice, but it's cool to see a new face in the running πŸ€” Khalil Mack's move to the Chargers gotta be interesting... will he take home the award this year? 🀞
 
Dalan is definitely deserving of this award πŸ™Œ. I mean, playing every single snap on his side of the ball all season? That's just insane πŸ’ͺ. And it's not like he's sacrificing anything for it either - he's still managing to put up top-notch numbers and help his team win games 🏈. What impresses me is that it's not just about him, he's setting an example for the guys around him. The whole Bears O-line is looking way more solid than they used to, and I think Dalman's dedication has been a big reason for that πŸ’―.
 
Drew Dalman is definitely a great pick for the Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award!!! 🀩 I mean, the guy has been on fire this season and his commitment to playing every snap on his side of the ball shows just how dedicated he is to winning 🏈! It's awesome to see players like him being recognized for their integrity and sportsmanship πŸ™Œ. The fact that Khalil Mack is also in the running is a bonus, I love watching those two go head-to-head on the field πŸ’₯! And it's cool that Josh Allen has been nominated again, he's definitely one of the most down-to-earth guys in the league 😊.
 
omg can you believe how dedicated Drew Dalman is? like literally every snap on that field this season 🀯 he's not just some pro athlete, he's a leader in the making πŸ’ͺ i love how he showcases his responsibility by playing both ways too it's gonna be awesome to see him at the award ceremony! what do you guys think about Jordan Love's nomination tho?
 
I'm loving this award initiative! It's so great to see teams recognizing players like Drew Dalman who truly live by the values of sportsmanship πŸ™Œ. I think it's awesome that the Bears are committed to promoting exceptional behavior on and off the field. It's a big deal when teams lead by example, you know? And it's not just about winning or losing - it's about showing respect for your teammates, opponents, and the game itself. Can't wait to see who wins the award this year! πŸ’ͺ
 
I'm loving this move by the Bears! πŸ™Œ It's so cool that they're recognizing Dalman for all the hard work he's putting into their O-line. I mean, 300+ pounds of linemen can't be easy to block, but this kid is making it look like a breeze πŸ’ͺ. And it's not just his playmaking skills – what really sets him apart is that guy's dedication to playing every snap on the right side of the ball πŸ™. I've got to give props to Dalman for being a true team player and showing some serious heart πŸ’•. It's great to see the Bears making this kind of commitment to sportsmanship, even if they haven't taken home that award since... well, let's just say, back in my day πŸ˜‰.
 
just read this news about Drew Dalman from the Chicago Bears 🀩 he's literally changed the team's offensive line into a beast mode machine and yet still manages to be super humble & dedicated πŸ™ it's awesome that the NFL is recognizing him for his sportsmanship skills πŸ’ͺ i mean, 27 years old and already making an impact like this... gotta respect πŸ™Œ
 
I'm loving this! 😊 The way Dalman is consistently playing every snap without complaining is a huge deal, especially considering the Bears' struggles last season. It shows that he's not just looking out for himself, but also for his teammates. And it's amazing to see him taking ownership of his position and being accountable on the field.

It's also interesting to note that Dalman's dedication hasn't gone unnoticed by other teams – Khalil Mack is actually competing against him for the award! 🀝 But in all seriousness, it's great to see the Bears putting in players who embody the values of sportsmanship. It's a big deal for their team culture and reputation.

I think what really sets Dalman apart is his willingness to put his body on the line every time he steps onto the field. He's not just thinking about himself; he's thinking about how he can help his team win, even if it means putting in extra work or taking a beating. That kind of selflessness and commitment is truly admirable. πŸ’ͺ
 
omg can't believe Drew Dalman got nominated for that award! he's literally been carrying that team's O-line all season 🀩. i love how he showed up every single snap on the field, that's dedication right there πŸ’ͺ. it's about time the bears get some rep for having a player who sets an example like this. and jordan love and brian o'Neill should def be in the running too, they're both making big impacts out there 🀝. gotta give props to Josh Allen for winning that award last season, he's definitely living up to his reps πŸ‘. fingers crossed dalman gets the nod! πŸ’«
 
I gotta say, I'm a bit surprised they're nailing it with this nomination lol πŸ€”. Drew Dalman's all-good vibes are a breath of fresh air in the NFL. It's nice to see someone getting props for just showing up and doing their job every single snap without any drama or controversy πŸ™Œ. Not many guys can say that, you know? The fact that he's part of a team that's finally starting to gel on the O-line is definitely a bonus πŸ“ˆ. Still think it's cool they're representing the Bears for this award though 🏈πŸ’ͺ
 
The art of humility, it's like the winds that blow across the plains of our souls - sometimes gentle, other times fierce, but always leaving their mark on us... 🌬️

Drew Dalman, this unassuming center, reminds me that true greatness isn't about the spotlight, but the quiet dedication to one's craft. His commitment to playing every snap is like a beacon, shining bright in a world of fleeting attention spans.

We often celebrate the flashy, the loud, and the bold, but what about those who toil behind the scenes? Who embody the values of sportsmanship not for recognition, but for its own sake? Dalman's nomination makes me ponder the very fabric of our society - are we celebrating the right things?

The Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award may seem like a small gesture, but it's actually a microcosm of our larger culture. Do we value character over charisma? Responsibility over results? It's worth reflecting on... πŸ’­
 
idk why they're makin this award so big deal πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ Drew Dalman's all right, I guess... but is it really necessary? I mean, what's the point of havin' all these awards and recognitions? Just seems like more stuff to be stressed about. And don't get me wrong, he does seem pretty dedicated to his game, but can't we just focus on winnin' instead of talkin' about how sportsmanlike we are? πŸ€”
 
I gotta disagree with this whole thing πŸ€”. The NFL is just trying to sell us out with these awards, you know? It's all about PR and image control. "Oh, look at our players, they're so sporting!" Meanwhile, the real issue is how much money they're making off our misery on the field πŸ˜‚. And what's up with this one guy being nominated every year just because he shows up to work? That's not even sportsmanship, that's just showing up πŸ™„. I mean, if we want to talk about character, where's Khalil Mack's integrity when it comes to actually playing the game? Not saying he's not a great player or anything...
 
Wow πŸ€©πŸ‘ Interesting how the NFL keeps highlighting the importance of sportsmanship, it shows the league is shifting towards promoting more than just talent on the field 😊.
 
πŸ€” I think it's awesome that the Bears are highlighting Dalman for this award, he seems like an incredible guy on and off the field πŸ™Œ. It's not just about playing well, but also about showing respect for your opponents and teammates. I mean, playing every snap without a hitch is impressive, but what really sets him apart is his willingness to take that extra step to make sure everyone around him does their part too πŸ’ͺ.

It's great to see teams like the Bears recognizing the importance of sportsmanship in all aspects of the game 🏈. It's not just about winning or losing, it's about conduct and character, and I think Dalman embodies those qualities perfectly πŸ‘. Fingers crossed for him, and I hope he makes a strong case to win this award! 🀞
