Unexciting, but justifiable move. Fields’ chances of staying just went up.

Harbaugh was never coming here. I told you this.

But a woman reported they were talking!

Excited for another year of the exact same arguments we’ve had the last two.

Anyone who didn’t expect this wasn’t paying attention.

Correct.  The Bears pretty much exclusively half ass things and make moves that are obviously bad when they make them, and then Pikachu-face when they don’t work out.

This is why they’re an extremely mediocre NFL franchise the last few decades.

This move tells me a few things (or things that IMO are at least likely).

1) Ryan Poles has had assurances from the higher ups that he is safe for at least a couple seasons.

2) Justin Fields’ chances of staying just improved. Fields is thought of more highly around the league than on HQ2 and Twitter.

3) Everyone thinks this means the Bears won’t get good OC candidates but I don’t think that’s true. As I said, Fields is more highly thought of around the league than he is by people on the Internet. Coaches are hired to be fired, they know this. They are nomads.

I think this job is plenty attractive enough because you have a defensive head coach and that makes the offense entirely yours. You’re about to get premium upgrades on offense, be they at QB or WR and probably on the OL. I don’t think you’ll have a problem finding good candidates, especially if you overpay a bit. Would be asinine if they didn’t overpay but it is the Bears so who knows.

Your floor for OC IMO would be Frank Reich, who would be a definite upgrade over Getsy.

The Bears make the wrong move. Again. This fucking franchise man...

Kevin Warren looking like Ted Philips 2.0. What do you expect from the man who fucked over the U of I basketball program a few years ago? He's taken his 'talents' to the pros now.

LOL. Lombardi said yesterday on his pod that the people he has spoken with around the league are telling him there is zero way the Bear do not pick a QB in the draft....

LOL.. No one any good is going to want to hitch their wagon to Eberlose for a year. This is fucking laughable on your part.

Michael Lombardi is about the worst analyst out there.

LOL. I am thinking he actually speaks with people who are in the league, as opposed to relying on Brad Spielberger, Esq. and knowledgeable football expert Maher Abu Arja on The Twitter. That being said, I am sure there are plenty of people in the league who use him to filter misinformation out to the public. But he was right on MVP Mitch and Fields.

Probably the least knowledgeable “Bears insider” around.

I was also right on MVP Mitch (annd Nagy) and the Mack Trade. Am I as reliable as Lombardi?

Amazing how all the guys who agree with you are so credible and all the guys who don’t aren’t, huh?
