And you completely ignore that Pittsburgh wanted Fields back to be the starter this year.

He literally says it was Getsy (the reason the Bears had a good run game). You’re basically supporting my case.
I don't think it's the case that you think Fields is a wingback

Yes, Fields told them no thanks. That’s how that works. He was not under contract so he took the Jets offer.

The argument has been that Justin Fields was a huge component of the Bears successful run game. That’s it. That’s been a debate for two years. PAMan (absurdly) credits Getsy for the run game success.

The same Getsy who presided over the Raiders pathetic run game and was fired before even Shane Waldron.

Getsy must have been calling the plays tho because we were told that Fields didn't.

This isn’t 1976. Almost no quarterbacks call plays anymore. Im not even sure Brady did.

I think Peyton did. He’s probably the only quarterback in 30 years to call his own plays.

He didn't want to be a Pittsburgh bench warmer again

How come his play-calling in Vegas sucked so bad? If he can perform miracles in Chicago, why not there?

They wanted him back as the starter.

Bad enough to sign him to a 5 year deal? Probably not. But he could have gotten a two year deal to be starter. He told them to pound sand.

Exactly what everybody knows is more like it. The OC calls the plays and the qb has audibles available. A qb who has trouble reading defenses and making quick decisions isn't going to call many audibles.
I assumed that "he doesn't call the plays" meant that Fields couldn't call an audible.

The Vegas qb's aren't wingbacks. Getsy was 50 years late. He'd have been fine at Texas or Oklahoma and Southwest Conference football.
