Title: The thread that is not about Justin Fields
Post by: Reacher on September 25, 2023, 08:58:29 AM
Yeah, yeah. I get it, Justin Fields has been bad. But who exactly has been “good” for the Bears? From the top down? Almost none of Poles’ additions have played well yet, some have been abysmal and outright absent. Looking at you, Chase Claypool, Lucas Patrick and Nate Davis. Why couldn’t Nate Davis play yesterday?

None of his FAs have stood out yet. This defense cannot rush the passer at all. They are on pace for 5.5 sacks on the season as a unit…only 3 games, but that is staggering. Where are the rookie D linemen? Have we heard their names called outside of being introduced to the audience? What happened fo Dominque Robinson, should we file a missing persons report?

In 3 games, how many impact plays has the defense made? Forget sacks, have they had more than a couple of pressures?

I thought Poles had an eye for offensive linemen. So far his additions have sucked. I was on board with the concept of the rebuild, but almost no one he’s brought in has made a dent in 3 games. Remember all the good buzz about Tyler Scott?

So I ask. Who with the Bears (anyone) has performed well so far this season?

I will say that I think injuries have already taken a toll, but the defensive line isn’t injured, and they are horrendous.

On pace for 5.5 sacks on the season just blows my mind. Any one of us could put together a Dline that could do that. Hell, the Illini D line could probably do that in the NFL.

Remember when Roschon was the steal of the draft? What is going on here?

Kyler Gordon and Tevin Jenkins’ injuries probably hurt more than we realized at the time.

He has a QB who actually throws the ball. If he were here, you would be whining that he was not getting open by 20 yards so Your Cult Leader would actually throw the ball to him.

The coaches are bad because they can't get the QB to fix his mechanics and read the field.

The QB is bad because he won't fix his mechanics and read the field. He also whines about his coaches when he sucks as a QB. So your theory that he may be better off with different coaches is weak.

If I am possibly wrong about Fields, why can't everyone else (at this point) be possibly wrong about Getsy? We all remember when Parkins said Eberlose should be tossed and Getsy made head coach....

Not in the top 4. Once he was available at 9, different ballgame. I told Spark specifically that I’d take him at 9 and try to trade him (for more than they got). If they couldn’t get something good for him, we’d be “stuck” with arguably the top player in the draft, “worst” case scenario. That’s a pretty good worst case scenario.
