Ryan Poles has to be watching quarterback play around the league this year and realizing he’s got one of the better ones…

Hilarious. Then again, he does suck as a GM

Great trade and signing by Poles! Tempo WRONG again ..

But that wasn't the case Sunday in the Bears' 31-26 meltdown loss to the Detroit Lions at Ford Field. Sweat played just 39 snaps in the loss in Detroit. That's good for 63 percent of the Bears' total defensive snaps. Yannick Ngakoue paced all Bears edge rushers with 45 snaps, and DeMarcus Walker nearly equaled Sweat with 38.

Sweat was also off the field on several critical third-down and red-zone plays. After the game, the defensive end told reporters that he subbed himself out on a third and goal play that the Lions scored on.

For comparison, Lions star edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson played 69 snaps Sunday, good for 92 percent of the Lions' defensive snaps.

That's what is required out of a star pass rusher. They should rarely come off the field.

***

After reviewing the film, Sweat was on the field for just 50 percent of the snaps in which the Lions either had a third down or were inside the red zone (9/18). The Bears' star edge rusher was on the field for the majority of the Lions' final two offensive drives that decided the game (12/17).

That 9/18 number on critical downs is a problem. There are some defensible reasons for that, depending on the length of the drive and the tempo of the offense, but the Bears need Sweat to be on the field more, especially on the money downs.

That's why he's here.

The Bears had a bye week to prep for 17 minutes of on the field defense.
3-5 more days and they may have gotten to a defensive game plan to get to the full 20 minutes that they needed.
Every day is a cognitive test.

It’s because they are trying to tank. Poles doesn’t want to win now. He wants a higher draft pick. That’s why the best players aren’t playing as much and you’re seeing run plays when you should pass and kicking FG’s when you should go for it. It’s not that hard to figure out but they can’t be too blatant about it.
I didn’t know that. Thanks!

3-5 years to lay a foundation sounds like a great plan.

Probably a tad more realistic than overnight.

I think Poles always knew when he took the job that he wanted a 2-3 year rebuild. I would even suggest he wanted to be bad the first two years he was GM just for this very reason to clean house and get two-years worth of high draft picks. It’s actually a genius way to build a franchise back up IF you know what you’re doing. After those 2-3 years, you’re in a great financial situation and have tons of resources at your disposal. There’s no way we were looking at winning last year or this year. Next year and on will be very telling. Again, this was the plan all along…
I didn’t know that. Thanks!

Eberflus/Poles/Bears are not trying to win games, that's the first thing we need to understand. Hence why Edmunds or Sweat weren’t out there much. They know what they’re doing. It’s OBVIOUS!
I didn’t know that. Thanks!

It’s why Eberflus has a hard time in press conferences answering questions about that stuff because he can’t just come out and say they are tanking, so it sounds dumb. Come on, y’all aren’t this fucking dumb and neither are they…
I didn’t know that. Thanks!
