The Justin Fields Excuse Thread
« on: September 17, 2023, 05:51:05 PM »
A million times, yes. Fields could play better. Absolutely.

But how many players on the Bears would you call a top 7 player at their  position? I struggle to think of one. In fact, there are none. Maybe Jaylen Johnson. Maybe.

The truth of the matter is this team is still very much in transition. This is game 2 of the rebuild. We have a first time GM, first time HC, first time OC, young quarterback who needs good strong coaching. A barely past his rookie year 5th round LT. A rookie RT.

I didn’t hear him say it, but apparently Poles said not long ago this team is only 70% built. Unfortunately, he was probably all too accurate.

Hopefully we don’t embarrass ourselves against KC and can string together a solid 2nd half of the season the way Detroit did last year. We (I know I was) were on the kool-aid. Hopeful the FAs and rookies would have more of an impact, but that was probably not realistic.

If you want to give up on Fields, that’s your prerogative. I am not there yet (yes, I see his flaws).

BTW the Bengals are 0-2, and the Giants are 0-1 and having to stage a furious comeback against a franchise that is openly tanking. Its rarely as bad as it looks.

This is not Game 2 of the rebuild. The rebuild started last year. Players, like Fields, from last year's team are part of the rebuild. (You are not going to completely turnover the roster in 2 years are you?)

This team is as bad as it was last year. In fact, it may be worse. You have free agents that were brought in who are not making an iota of difference (looking at the linebackers).

That was the tear down. How many new starters are there? I’ll bet half the team.

What did Hamp and OB say about the loss, PAMan?

Olin Kreutz certainly wasn’t pointing the finger any one direction, but he did heavily imply that the pick 6 was Getsy’s fault (too predictable).

The LBs are good players, I’m not too worried about them long-term. Nate Davis didn’t play (thankfully?). Billings has been decent.

Not a FA but Moore is clearly a difference maker. Just needs more help around him.

I was only half listening as I cleaned the kitchen up after my nacho buffet. Will have more focus on it when the podcast comes out and I listen on a treadmill.

Here is what I have heard: Not enough roll outs. Fields not a drop back QB. Stupid INTs. Run the fucking ball. Shitty QBs continue to outplay Fields. Getsy and Eberlose suck. The spread from whatever restaurant that brings them food during the game was good.

What have the LBs done to make you believe they are playing well (which is different from being "good players")? This defense has been chewed up and spit out the past 2 weeks by Love and Mayfield.

Pretty sure I asked why no roll outs in the game thread. It’s pretty obvious that Getsy doesn’t know how to use his players. He’s about as vanilla as it gets. Throw on 1st. Run on 2nd and 10. Hope the line can hold on 3rd and long or throw a screen. He fucking sucks. Yes, Fields is missing too many reads, but God damn, let’s have some standards at OC. This guy isn’t helping anyone. Fucking over-promoted thanks to being Aaron Rodgers’ towel boy.

Justin Fields 4 carries 3 yards. That’s a fireable offense IMO. Until you get other things working, you’ve got to incorporate what works. Inexcusable not to get Fields running.

Darnell Mooney 0 catches. Was he even targeted?

Guess Mooney left the game with an injury early 2nd half. Never heard that.

Edmonds and Edwards led the Bears in tackles and assists btw. Would like to see some big plays out of them though.

Jerry Hairston Jr did not like the call.
