TMP is right. What in the heck are we talking about Fields in this Caleb Williams thread for - it just pisses people off all over again. Be a good sport Art - just leave it alone. That's the other half to the equation here. Let's not gang up on Plank or anybody else about JF1. There are people that...

Imo, Justin Fields’ lack of development as a passer made trading back for yet another “haul” unlikely. A struggling 4th year QB with a 5th year option decision looming likely made acquiring a quality oc problematic and set the stage for the kind of QB uncertainty now facing Minnesota and Las Vegas....

For some reason every time the squabbling starts I imagine @wab like this: https://c.tenor.com/yewmi6BteXQAAAAC/tenor.gif :rofl: @wab is right, we need to stop talking about JF1, he’s gone, he’s moved on. I stuck with him to the end of his Chicago career so if you want me to admit I was wrong - I w...

Yes, the Penix jokes just keep spurting out...

Nah, I think we've fully shot our load.

Wait until Penix holds his ball too long and takes a sack.

1. I strongly suggest you watch the HBO documentary series OJ Simpson: Made in America. It is an incredibly comprehensive series that goes over everything relevant before, during, and after the trial, up until 2018 or '19, I believe. 2. He murdered those people. It's not even a matter of if; it is ...

From a political / locker room standpoint JF1 needed to go once it was decided to draft a replacement. If you thought Grossman Orton War was a sight to see you wouldn’t see anything compared to Williams Fields if any kind of controversy broke out. You’re talking Starkiller Base level destruction. W...

Neither Poles nor Flus is on the hot seat. They could be, if Justin balls out in Pittsburgh while Caleb really struggles.... Personally, I think that Poles did the worst thing you can do in a negotiation. You have to be willing to walk away from the deal. You can't let the other side dictate terms ...

Championships would be required for this IMO. If he is playing like a top QB and in the hunt, that’s good enough for me. There are lots of reasons why teams do or do not win championships. We’ll all watch the games and we will know if CW is putting up the numbers and we lose because the defense suc...

When would it happen? 2029? 2030? Don’t take my numbers uber-seriously but Burrow is at like $65M and Herbert is $56.6M. Mahomes is almost $46M. You might not be that far off. With the way league revenue and the cap is going if CW takes care of business he could be the first $100M guy. And the Bear...

One of my favorite Bear-isms is worrying about how expensive a player's next contract is going to be. I hope his extension costs $75 million per year. When would it happen? 2029? 2030? Don’t take my numbers uber-seriously but Burrow is at like $65M and Herbert is $56.6M. Mahomes is almost $46M. You...

Why are we having angst over a second QB contract that is like five years away?

The best problem we could possibly have is for CW to royally kick some ass and we pay him some record setting extension.

What needs to be understood is that DJ Moore has been through QB hell in his career. He's obviously an extremely talented WR and he's had to overcome a lot. He didn't have anybody at Carolina to really get him the ball. So then he comes here and he's got JF1 and they clicked. For the first time in h...

In an effort to bring peace and stability back to this board after the quite unnecessary squabbling over Justin Fields and Caleb Williams I wanted to bring up a topic where we can universally agree upon a QB’s greatness. That QB is Smokin’ Jay Cutler. I loved this man. He is everything that I ever w...

Either Caleb Williams just threw 5 INTs in Lambeau Field or....

Players can have any number they want right?

Williams supposedly has a personality.

Ok fine.

https://x.com/sharpfootball/status/1771173602714435618?s=46&t=sk0p8Tq4Tdv7hHrajOLkSw This is where having 3 of your OL starters still on their rookie deals helps and pretty soon your starting QB as well. This is a valid reason to draft OL at 9. It isn’t so much about Alt. It’s about the $20M.

Ok I need some feedback here.

If I buy a Caleb Williams college or rookie auto card it’ll fuck up the whole thing right?

I don’t know if I believe in chicken bones and all that crap but you guys are smarter than me about this stuff.

Mods I didn't know what thread to drop this in, so if there is a better one please move it. I just hit me there is a level of irony for our fan base which I think perhaps only this team could have. Justin Fields has now replaced Mitch Trubisky twice. I love you for making that connection. Now to co...

How many Caleb Williams games have you watched today? https://media.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExeGdpZTllcHViNzJlNWloZnlvMmdyaWVwbDNvOTJkOWwwM29sdXpibyZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/1iTWXc074q0EwcZa/giphy.gif You'll be okay You have to answer for Santino, Carlo. https://youtu.be/sJy...

I'm on board. My feelings for Fields were keeping me from truly diving in on Caleb, and now that I've spent more time looking I'm good. By time the season starts I'll be as big a Caleb fan as G08...well, maybe. He is oozing talent, wait until you actually watch him play (not being snide here). I'm ...

I think many of us see what we want to see and read what we want to read, and those interpretations shape our opinions about this guy. I've been trying to find a reason to justify trading off of #1 to myself, looking for something to say "Aha...let's move the pick." Like maybe he'd measur...

If we could get both Phil Emery and Ryan Pace to draft ahead of us before we go at 9 then the Packer GMs who refused to support Rodgers all those years then there’s a chance it just might happen.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENsvgiQUb68 I watch that video that I see a lot of arrogance for a kid who's never thrown a pass in the NFL. I also hear a player who has read a lot of his own press clippings. I get it. He's been the chosen one for the last two years. But players with that level of,...

No seriously you should lock it.

The only non-Bear we should be allowed to discuss is Gardner Minshew.

The JF1 topic is toxic as hell and no good can come of any of this.

For expectations, we were playing like a playoff team when we acquired Sweat.

Since then we’ve upgraded WR and RB with an alleged upgrade at QB forthcoming plus whomever we draft at 9.

Then our schedule isn’t that hard.

We should be a playoff team next year.

You really don’t need to do this after every post. It’s grating and unnecessary. Consider it a personal achievement if we can get through this saga without getting put back on block. Players feel things sometimes and regardless of what you think of the player, their opinion may differ and it’s not ...

The direct posting of tweets has to stop.

I think all the lead up to the Fields trade, the months of speculation has burned me out. Now that he is traded, I just want to get to the draft and find out whats what. I cant remember ever being burned out at this time of the year. Unless we sign a shocking FA, I am mentally checked out for a bit...

I may actually die laughing. I had to stop a few times, collect myself so I can focus, so I could keep reading. The brilliance of this draft has no limits. Our QB has a mullet. Our TE is a former basketball player. You've checked all the boxes. There is no stopping us now. Bravo, Rusty, bravo, fucki...

I wholeheartedly agree. We are SO damn close to having a great team on paper. This defense is one guy away. That second pass rusher. It changes everything. We would have a top 10 defense easily. That top 10 defense then becomes Caleb’s best friend. Those extra 15 yards or so of shorter fields turn ...
