The line was still not that good. Only one OL graded out as a starter by PFF, Tevin Jenkins. And we saw how disastrous he was against GB in the finale. And you also never ever seem to mention the offensive coordinator the Bears admitted wasn’t good enough.

The offensive coordinator that was immediately hired by another team while the Bears were still trying to get a 4th round pick for Fields, which they did not.

I didn't think Getsy was good, and mentioned that a lot of times last year.  I also don't think he was bad enough that a good QB wouldn't have looked good for the Bears last year.  But the QB they had didn't look very good.

The entire narrative with that offense would be, "can Fields finally make the jump?"  Because there isn't an indication that he could.  If there was, someone would've wanted him to start for them and no one in the league did.

Remember, you were excited about the offense coming into last season with the Moore addition.  You expected a big jump out of Fields until it didn't happen, at which point you did a 180 and said "well who could've expected him to be better than this?"

Not entirely untrue. But I’m sure rookie QBs who haven’t taken a snap yet get much less scrutiny than guys who’ve had starts in the league. I’m sure the expectations for Zack Wilson, Trey Lance, Josh Rosen et al were all sky high at one point.

John Shoop got a 2nd OC gig in the league. Probably not unironically by the Raiders. Proof he was good at his job.

Marc Trestman oversaw one of the most mocked HCing debacles in league history, and is still getting jobs in the league. Proof, he’s god at his job.

I didn't say it was 'proof' he was good at his job - in fact I pretty explicitly said, verbatim, "I didn't think Getsy was good, and mentioned that a lot of times last year" in the very post you quoted - but don't let that stop you from whooping the shit out of your strawman.

The fact is:  Getsy was immediately hired to be someone else's OC, and zero NFL teams wanted Justin Fields to be their starting quarterback even for cheap.

If Kingsbury didn’t leave the Raiders high and dry, Getsy would probably be back to being Rodgers’ ball boy. Devante Adams probably lobbied for Getsy since he’s unhappy with his role in the offense. And since Adams is by far their best offensive player he probably had some sway.

Hired because they got left at the altar by Kingsbury, and again, I’ll bet Adams had significant input since he’s all they’ve got.

And the Raiders are a poster child for NFL dysfunction.

He was just the only potential OC left I guess.

Not quite like the Bears have been until the last few months.  They're finally making the right moves.

Can’t imagine too many quality candidates wanted the Raiders job since they have no QB. I literally don’t even know who their starter is. Stidham? Lol

Stidham is no longer there so there’s that. They have O’Connell who no one seems too excited about and traded for a solid backup.

Lol.

I’d feel great about him if I need a guy to get me through 2-3 games. He is not a starting caliber quarterback.

They could've had Justin Fields for cheap but chose Minshew.

Getsy was hired long before Minshew was signed FTR.
