I’d say Fields outperformed probably 95% of QBs that would have been put in his situation.

Acting like we have no idea how DJ felt about the Fields situation is pure gold.

Again, disappointment over Fields, and excitement over Caleb are both emotions DJ could (and likely does) have.

Acknowledging.  Acknowledging that we have no idea how he feels about the QB changeover.

It’s not “acting like”.  We have no idea how he felt about any of it.

Maybe someday you’ll accept that Fields wasn’t given much of a real chance at success here, but today is not that day. That’s not to say that he doesn’t shoulder some of the blame.

I’ve acknowledged that he wasn’t in a good situation his first two years in Chicago (especially year 2) over and over and over again.  Of course, a lot of good QBs have still looked like good QBs in bad situations.

Last year the team traded the #1 pick for a top WR and took a top OT at #9.  They did everything they could to make things better for Fields when they could’ve easily felt justified moving on and taking a QB at 1.  Instead they gave Fields a chance to prove he can be their guy long term.  He decidedly did not do that, so they correctly moved on.

Also worth noting that despite your consistently claiming that I’ve somehow been unfair to Fields, I was fully supportive of them trading the pick and getting him more help with the chance to prove he was the guy.  The best case scenario for the Bears was always that he was the guy.  He just wasn’t.

Name me the very long list of quarterbacks who would have completely overcome all of the things Fields dealt with his first three years. He literally played with practice squad level players year 2, a year I’d argue is the most critical year for a young QB.

And had a rookie OC who after two years the Bears said wasn’t good enough.

Both Mully and Haugh made sure to mention DJs very public feelings on Justin. DJ also said “no one wanted him to go, but I’ll be excited to work with whomever they bring in” because he’s a pro and understands the business. Also doesn’t sound like a super happy camper during this interview. His tone sounds down beat.

Yeah, well it takes more than one good WR addition to significantly upgrade the least talented offense in the league. Go figure.

What they’ve added this year compared to last year is light years different.
