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.

I’m didn’t say they are playing well. I said they’re good players.
-
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.

Don't you think part of this is that teams are now ready to defend it after having an offseason to watch the film from last year? It is not as if they are worried about Fields' pocket passing.
They ran that one sweep today and it was snuffed.

They weren’t bad. They led the Bears in tackles. Did they dominate? No.

He’s legitimately one of the best running quarterbacks of all-time. They didn’t get better at defending it. The Bears stopped employing it (for the most part), and it’s hard to scramble when you’re letting guys come up the middle on screen passes.
Roll Justin out and give him the option to throw or run. Move the pocket. That’s what you do when you can’t block. You love the pocket. Justin is better IMO when he’s improvising. The Bears don’t do that at all. It looks like Nagy is still calling plays.

They have been on the team for 2 games. Both games the D has not been good. When are they going to start playing well?

This is pretty sad on your part Tempo. Fields isn't Tua. Sorry. Tua actually throws the balls to guys who are barely NFL open. Saw it all night tonight. Fields just holds onto the ball too long. If Tua had Fields arm, that would be something.

The PAMan will NEVER get it. NEVER. He literally cannot remember when people thought Jalen Hurts, Josh Allen, and Tua sucked. Because…that was so many years ago?
It was literally barely more than a year and a half ago Eagles fans were excited Gardner Minshew was taking over for Hurts.

This is after 27 starts, about identical to Fields.

What exactly have you seen this year from Fields to make you make these laughable comparisons? He still holds onto the ball far too long. He has not appeared to have progressed one iota so far.
-
You are making a mockery of the Bears Realism Thread.

Obviously the purpose of the Bears realism thread is to heap blame on the staff and deflect blame away from Fields.

Tempo doesn't know football
Has he ever broken down game film?
I HAVE!

Of course while covering himself by maintaining Fields is not a finished product and shares in the blame.

For the milliontieth time, Fields needs to help his own cause and play better.

Eek. IMO DJ is a legit #1 though not high end. Would be amazeballs if he were your 2. I agree with the rest. Kmet has looked lost at times. He’s a capable receiver but not better than average I don’t think.

If you listen to Michael Lombardi enough, you will hear him say that there are only a handful of true "WR1" types, think Tyreek Hill, i.e., those WRs that can take over games.

I’ll buy that. Maybe 5-6 of those guys. I don’t think DJ is to that level. But he’s very very good.

Here is the TL;DR version for those of you who don’t want to wade through yet another superfluous Bears thread:
Tempo has (finally) divined that the organization sucks and isn’t putting Fields in a position to win, yet Custard gets LOL’d by Tempo for pointing this out year after year.

Few things are as easy as selling short on the Bears and Illini.

In the last 2.5 years the Illini have won the Big Ten in basketball twice, had a 1 seed in the tourney, and played in a January bowl game.

So the Bears will NEVER be good again, is that what you’re saying?
-
PAMan?
Definitely accurate, though omitting maybe the "rest of the story." Good day!
-
Wait? They won the conference twice? I’m pretty sure that’s false.
-
Clearly he’s counting the B1G Tournament as “winning the conference.” Bit of a stretch.
What did they do with the conference title and 1 seed? Oh yeah, they face-planted.
-
The Bears won the division in 2018 with a historically good defense. That’s not ancient history. And what did they do? Just like the Illini always do, they face-planted.

Your transition is complete. Welcome to The Dark Side, Tempo and Jasn....[engages in evil laugh while rubbing hands in an evil manner].

Fixed it.

Yet Tempo tells us there are good players on the D!
Per The Bright One:
Baker cooks
The Bucs’ Baker Mayfield, the 2018 No. 1 overall pick-turned-journeyman quarterback, had 317 passing yards and a 114.5 passer rating Sunday. The Bears’ defense allowed a 123.2 passer rating to the Packers’ Jordan Love in Week 1. Dating to last year, the Bears have allowed a passer rating of 114 or higher the last four games. Five games ago, the Bills’ Josh Allen had a 71.3 rating in a game at Soldier Field with a minus-12 windchill.
-
Oh, noz! Matt Spiegel is “out” on Justin Fields, and Danny Parkins is trending towards out. Gonna have to change my opinion now…

https://chicago.suntimes.com/bears/2023/9/18/23879510/justin-fields-stats-interceptions-fumbles-regardless-of-bears-flaws-turnovers-land-on-qb-shoulders
Fields now has as many career pick-sixes (four) as Aaron Rodgers has in 19 seasons. His decision-making is a significant piece of the offensive struggles.
The Bears have surrounded quarterback Justin Fields with an abundance of problems in his first three seasons. There’s no arguing against that. Whether it’s been the coaching, the scheme, the offensive line or the wide receivers, it’s never been quite right.
But he’s still the one with the ball in his hands — not Matt Nagy, Luke Getsy or whoever else has had a hand in the various hindrances he’s faced since the Bears drafted him. Fields makes the final call on where the ball goes and must show awareness and good judgment regardless of anything else going on around him.
The ongoing turnover trouble is squarely Fields’ responsibility, and questions about his decision-making loom largely as the Bears weigh whether to build their future around him.

Eberflus said the screen was one of “several plays” the Bears could have called in the shadow of their own goalpost, but was fine with the fact they did.
“It was there,” he said.
No it wasn’t. Bucs linebacker Lavonte David said “everyone knew” the screen was coming.
***
With 3:12 left in the first half, the Bears went no-huddle, sending Trent Taylor in motion and into the right flank and running back Roschon Johnson up the right seam, where he was open. DJ Moore ran an out route to the left sideline and turned his palms up when the ball wasn’t thrown his way.
Fields looked downfield for what seemed like forever, and took a sack. Eberflus said Bears receivers weren’t spaced out enough.
“It’s designed to really spread out the field,” he said. “We got to do a better job with our spacing there — you know, with our receiver spacing. There was a little bit of an issue there with the spacing part of it, and we’ve got to do a better job executing there.”
It happened again later. On third-and-10 with 12:24 left in the game, Moore and tight end Cole Kmet both ran the same stick route just beyond the first-down marker. Fields fired toward either Kmet or Moore — it was hard to tell because Kmet was directly between Fields and his receiver — for an incomplete pass.
Mooney said spacing was something receivers need to talk through in meetings, particularly when it comes to which hash mark the ball is spotted on. On the third-down play, the ball was between the two hashes.
“Usually the ball is always on the hash, but the ball was kind of in the middle of the field,” he said. “So we kind of have to figure out the details on that.”

He gets to throw the ball more in two games than Fields gets to in a month. Also, garbage time against crap team like Indy.
But I commend Houston for bringing him along the right way. Rip it, and we’ll live with it.

Just sad. Tempo will NEVER get it. NEVER. He literally cannot remember that Fields holds onto the ball and takes sacks when people like Jalen Hurts, Josh Allen, and Tua stopped doing it. Because…that was just over the past 2 years?
It was literally barely more than a year ago when the Bears tried running a Big Boy Passing Offense and his guy could not execute it one iota.

Fields has had opportunities in garbage time and still couldn't come close to 300 yards. Forget that even, he's only cracked the 250 yard mark three times in 27 career starts. Not very franchise QB like if you ask me.

In two career starts Stroud has thrown the ball 44 and 47 times. Fields got to throw the ball last year 25 or more times 3x, never eclipsing 30. Fields has never had a 40 attempt game.
-
It literally took Fields until his 6th game to get to 91 passes last year. Doesn’t sound like quarterback development if you ask me…

Did you watch the 1 5 hour video? They won't let him throw 44x because he fucking sucks ass. Seriously. His footwork is terrible. His reads are terrible. What the fuck was he doing this offseason besides go to Bulls games?
Forgot to add that he throws a bunch of ducks as well. He fucking blows.

To be fair, a lot of good OCs are not experienced. If you have a very experienced OC, good chance you have a mediocre coach (looking at you Ron Turner), so double edged sword.

BUT!
You don’t extend Fields this off-season, just pick up his 5th year option and let him play on it, and if Bienemy wants to draft another QB as well in this class you do it. Let him sit behind Fields for that one year. Of course this is all depending how the rest of this year goes.

So the fact that I agree that what’s going on today means “I’m not capable of an ordinal thought?” I can’t agree with Bernstein, Parkins, Holmes, anyone at The Score, JT O’Sullivan, Tim Jenkins, anyone in sports media. Jarret Payton. Who am I allowed to agree with? I’m running out of people I can listen to and agree with.
It’s a fucking crazy day at Halas Hall. Is that some “hot take” I got from Jarret Payton? GMAFB. You are so juvenile.
Why would they cut Peterman? If Fields gets hurt you’ve got one quarterback. An UFA rookie. That makes no sense.

Sure looking that way.
The Williams situation is obviously a key driver here. Not much to hang on the Bears for there. Doubt they were responsible in any way for Alan Williams actions.

Saw something about child porn regarding Williams. Obviously that’s speculation. Sounds plausible.
We definitely should not give him the benefit of any doubt at this point, right?

Williams’ house was. Peanut Tillman informed the Bears it was…
Jarret Payton, I mean I, say that’s false.

It’s not about who plays after Fields. It’s about having ONE quaterback in your organization if Fields gets hurt. An UFA rookie. That can’t be your only QB.

They have a veteran Sam Darnold. He’s not great, but at least he’s somebody.

And Purdy had already shown that he can play at an NFL level.

Everyone but Tempo and The Twitter Fields Fan Club types all know it is coming. The only question is whether it occurs before or after D J Moore goes after Fields on the sidelines for not throwing him the ball when he is wide open.

The reason cutting Peterman makes no sense is now there is no veteran presence past Fields in the QB room now. Which hurts Fields and the QB room. Sure, Nathan Peterman can’t play, but he’s consistently had a job in the NFL for 7 years, so apparently he has SOME value according to coaches. Fields needs a veteran presence, and Bagent needs that even more, especially if Fields were to miss significant time.

I had preseason dreams of the Bears shipping Claypool and a draft pick to Tampa for Mike Evans. With their financial situation, I could have seen it. Wish that had happened.

Tempo can rest easy that veteran Peterman is back on the roster. The Bear QB Room is solid again

That makes the move even weirder.

I'm sure he's denying a lot of things. Something of magnitude is going on here. Otherwise we'd know what it is (exactly) already. The fact that the Bears didn't "wish Alan Williams well" or thank him says quite a bit.
-
Reasonably happy with the Bears’ response to yesterday. I think it’s a bit early to be running out of the building yelling “fire!” Ultimately, the next 2-3 weeks will likely tell us a lot about the direction they are headed. Sure would help if they can stem the injuries.

Flamboyant? Deion is flamboyant. Carter was controversial. I’d have still probably taken him at 9. And I certainly wouldn’t have given him away for what amounts to a 5th round pick.

I wouldn’t make the claim that racism was behind that pick, because that’s a big accusation without any way to prove it; but I often wonder if it played a role (and believe it may have).

just use the 12ft ladder
Six-and-a-half years ago, the Bears’ top decision-makers met Patrick Mahomes at a high-end Lubbock, Texas, Mexican restaurant. They’d become enamored with the Texas Tech quarterback during the pre-draft process, and general manager Ryan Pace, player personnel director Josh Lucas, head coach John Fox, offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains and quarterbacks coach Dave Ragone wanted to spend time with him.
“He has a nervous energy, so you kinda question, ‘How composed is this kid?’” Lucas said. “‘You’re about to hand off a franchise to him in the city of Chicago.’”
They grew to like Mahomes’ energy. As the meal stretched on, he told them about the Texas Tech baseball team and gave them a scouting report on their basketball program. It was March Madness, and Mahomes broke down different college point guards.
The Bears left convinced that Mahomes was one of the top two quarterbacks on their draft board, alongside North Carolina’s Mitch Trubisky. Only one person inside Halas Hall had Clemson star Deshaun Watson rated as a first-round pick — and that coach, Lucas said, wasn’t particularly passionate about it.
“The focus from the end of spring was on Mitch and Patrick,” Lucas said.
The Bears chose Trubisky.
Mahomes himself didn’t believe the Bears would take a quarterback — but said during Super Bowl week in February that his camp was told he was atop Pace’s list of players at the position.
That wasn’t the case, Lucas said. Rather, they were trying to figure out if they’d take Mahomes third overall if the Browns decided to make Trubisky the No. 1 overall pick. The 49ers would have, in that scenario, taken Texas A&M edge rusher Myles Garrett second.
The Browns wound up drafting Garrett first, and the Bears traded up one spot to draft Trubisky. They liked the North Carolina quarterback so much that they didn’t want to risk someone jumping ahead of them.
The Chiefs took Mahomes 10th.
Lucas was amazed by Mahomes’ wow moments in college but wasn’t sure how they’d work in the NFL. Previous Red Raiders quarterbacks who thrived in the Air Raid system —including Kliff Kingsbury, the head coach at the time — hadn’t been able to make the leap.
“Your jaw hits the floor when you see (Mahomes) make some of these plays,” Lucas said. “But is that realistic? That’s where I really missed. …I didn’t think the things he did off script would translate to consistent playmaking ability on our level. And he proved me wrong.”
Mahomes is the best player in the NFL, and the Bears are still looking for a quarterback.
When those two teams converge Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium, Lucas will have a unique point-of-view, even from his couch. He was in the Bears’ draft room when they passed on Mahomes, and in 2021 when they traded up to draft Justin Fields.
Lucas was fired alongside Pace’s staff after the 2021 season. He’s stayed on the North Shore and in recent months has begun working as a television and radio analyst.
In Fields, he sees a quarterback who, with the right surroundings, can still stand out. Lucas doesn’t see a quarterback who can’t read the field; rather, it’s someone who doesn’t fire the ball after trusting his eyes. His footwork and delivery look different every time, Lucas said.
“He doesn’t look confident,” he said. “He’s not creating plays. He’s trying to do something he’s not comfortable doing rather than just being an innate, instinctive play-maker. ..
“It’s going to take time. The thing you need to do is build his confidence.”
Most inside Halas Halas considered Fields the second-best quarterback in his draft class, behind only Trevor Lawrence. Lucas said the team’s S2 Cognition scores — which test nine cognitive functions — on Fields were high. He was an introvert, but his coaches and teammates loved him. Football mattered to him.
The Bears knew that superior blockers and receivers at Ohio State allowed Fields to be deliberate in his decision-making, and that he’d have to speed up as a pro. They thought he’d benefit from playing behind Andy Dalton as a rookie.
“With Justin we knew he had rare ability to run the football,” Lucas said. “With the way the NFL has changed the last 20 years, the way the game is legislated has allowed for quarterbacks who are featured as runners to survive, get to second contracts and have more longevity. They are protected now.”
Lucas said the Bears believed Fields had a high floor because of his running ability and would improve his pass game with more time on task.
He still believes that, but thinks the Bears offense needs to be more centered around his running. Until they do, he said, “you’re cheating the player, you’re cheating your offense and you’re cheating your team.”
When Mahomes broke out in 2018, Lucas wasn’t particularly bothered. The Bears went 12-4 and Trubisky seemed on the upswing. Then things went sideways.
“When it gets really hard,” he said, “is when your guy starts to struggle.”
-
Thanks for that. Didn’t see the Fields part coming. I think one area they’ve failed Fields is trying to bring him along too slowly. I like what Houston is doing with Stroud. Let him sling it, and let him learn (or not learn). You invest two 1st round picks in a QB so you can hide him behind your running backs? Fucking stupid. They don’t s poor job of using what Justin does well, and incorporating that into his development plan.

The Poles/Eberflus combo now have lost 13 consecutive games while allowing at least 25+ points in all of those losses.
How's that for realism?

For whatever reason, some people out there claim last year doesn't count. Based on the results, I don't think you can say for certain that they were actually tanking last year because they look worse this year.

Pretty real. Right now no one looks up to the task. Injuries haven’t helped, but the talent isn’t what we hoped it’d be at this point.

Please tell us again that we need to see what Fields can do the rest of the way out. Because the coaches see him in practice day-in-and-day-out and we have seen him suck for 28 games, but yeah, Fields needs more throws to show everyone if he can be an NFL QB or not.
Please share with the rest of us whatever it is you are smoking and/or drinking.

Is it possible for you to post without sounding like a troll? Just curious .

This takes me back to Weber's Bag o' Excuses.
That being said, Tempo isn't going full on WFF on us, is he?

You are just getting mad that your ridiculousness is getting called out.

Lolololololololololololololol
Good troll attempt there. Gotta make it not so obvious though.

Your posts are more than enough evidence of your Fields Fan Foreverism. The mere fact you think he cannot be judged until the end of the year is the epitome of being a FFF.

It is right there. Only a FFF claims we need the rest of the season with Fields starting to judge him. He has 28 starts. He has sucked as a passer in every one. The data shows he is the worst. Time to move him on to the CFL like Henry Burris.

Mitch got 50 starts. Fields can get another 12.

Still drunk, I guess.

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. This makes you insane.
We didn't need 50 starts for Mitch to know he sucked. The data shows Fields is actually far worse than Mitch. Giving him 1 more start is insanity.

Did you puke alphabet soup and come up with this?

But yeah. I’m sure it’s highly likely a DII UFA rookie is ready to start.
It’s about this point in their careers Hurts, Allen, and Tua turned it around. I know patience isn’t your thing, but it would be ignorant not to exercise it in this case. You’re just a baby throwing a tantrum right now.

Comparing Fields to Hurts, Allen and Tua! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. You are insane.
Patience? I have been patient reading all your idiotic posts defending the crap QB. He sucks. He is worse than Mitch. Ship him off to Canada.

In the last 2.5 years the Illini have won the Big Ten in basketball twice, had a 1 seed in the tourney, and played in a January bowl game.

Oh man, that’s classic. Love that that still exists.
Custard is becoming a wordier version and possibly even less coherent version of Mn.

You’re basically a one-trick pony, so I get the gist.

Go back to enjoying last years’ 8 Illini wins as a high-water mark for 15 years.

Lol. Don't look to me for an answer. I tend to be incoherent.

"Do I stutter?" would have been a better question.
