There's a difference - a crucial one that folks frankly just don't realize - with Fields sack rate prior to 2023 vs his sack rate in 2023 when the OL was addressed. Prior to 2023, the stat is mostly meaningless to me because the OL was putrid in pass protection. But fair enough to ding him on 2023 ...

Oh course lines break down sometimes. It happens with every team but why is there such a narrative that the Bears “Oline is so terrible? 4 seconds to make a decision and get rid of the football is plenty of time for the NFl. Pro focus also has the Bears oline ranked 14th Why is there such a narrati...

I don't care about Maye's school. I care about if he is football Jesus or not, and everyone has been on board with Williams being potentially football Jesus and Maye is just the next guy up in the draft. To me, you take Williams, or you take a whole lot of first round picks in a trade and keep Field...

I am an old timer Bears fan, 74 years old. I watched the evolution of the 1985 Ditka Bears. During the first few years the Ditka Bears sucked, but they continued to progress. McMahon was not an immediate fix. I see a similar progression with Fields and Flaus. I want to see Da Bears stick with Field...

Neither line showed up today. Love had all day and night to throw while Fields got however long it takes to take 3 steps. The running game was pathetic while the defense got ran all over. Getsy's screen plays are so obvious to them that they shut down every. single. one. I think, for the whole seaso...

Ted Phillips stupid ass sat comfortably until he retired willingly. I don't think a hot seat exists for the position.

Is this a troll job? Murray was trying to keep up with Fields all day, and Fields had his foot taken off the gas by this coaching staff that plays like scared little girls with a lead. My issue for awhile has been, and I know I'm basically talking to myself here, is the weird group think that happe...

Doesn’t the OP qualify for the BFO Dumbass Post of the Week with this nonsense. Baker Mayfield is a terribly inaccurate QB. He’s short, and he’s a dick. So no thanks. 3,600 yards on 64% completion. 26 tuds 8 picks. We’d be NFCN champions right now with those QB numbers. Do you think the Bears coach...

I'm on this same page, TMP. The consistency means you're converting third downs/avoiding 3 and outs, sustaining drives, keeping the defense fresh, scoring points. The anomaly 50 yd bomb may not even result in a TD or a scoring drive if you're taking a sack for -12 on the next play and you go 3 and ...

Uh oh. One could make a successful argument that Murray did outplay JF1 because the yards were effectively the same, the TDs were the same, but Murray did not throw an INT. Also, JF1's passing yards were inflated because of the bomb to Kmet. If my Google searching is accurate that was a 53 yard pas...

How can Getsy have some amazing 3rd and 5, or 3rd and 7 calls for runs up the middle that pick up a first down but can't for the life of him break through a wet paper bag for 1 fucking yard? I liked Fields answer there to the guy asking "don't you guys have a play where you can smash through fo...

It tells me also that Fields perhaps is seeing the open receivers and he’s thinking - this DB is going to drop the ball again, I’ll pray DJ or Cole gets open. Your use of DB here has confused me because in football terms it means "defensive back" but from the context of the post it should...

I have something of a mental flow chart of what Poles is probably thinking based on some pieces of info I do not have. Those bits of info are: 1. How highly he regards Caleb Williams 2. If he considers last season a throw away season for Flus (due to trading away so much talent) 3. Who the firing of...

Is this a Dan Bernstein burner account? In my defense, I ask the question, "Why are people not seeing things the way I see it?" a lot in life. I posed that question because I'd just heard him rant about Eberflus and it's not about what's "fair' to him, he just wants a better coach. T...

FWIW...Danny Parkins of WSCR shared this Charles Robinson article https://sports.yahoo.com/bears-trading-justin-fields-gms-explain-why-its-the-best-route-and-where-compensation-could-land-153257987.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly90LmNvLw&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAANKsHX6DSBwtTRLmr0r0...

Poles highly values the DE position but I would be surprised if he wants to sink $50M+ into the spot. I think he takes a harslook at one of the blue chip guys with one of the first rounders. I dunno man….add Crosby to this defense and it’s championship caliber. Cost be damned IMO. I'd take a guy wh...

I cringe like "here comes the fumble" every time I see him touch the ball. It would take more error free play time than I'd like to give him to get rid of that feeling.

I think if, injuries aside, they pull off a win against the Browns next week, then there's a real chance they sneak into the playoffs. The Lions win was a once-in-a-blue-moon win against a good team that can happen inside your division, but if they win 3 in a row against teams that, right now, have ...

Considering our starting point, it's a good accomplishment. It's pretty clear to me that we had like 7 new starters on defense, our secondary was ravaged with injuries, and we had no Sweat - so we absolutely sucked and that put us behind the 8 ball so to speak. But new players have gelled together,...

I finally decided to watch Caleb Williams highlights to see what its all about. Granted it was just his 17 minute season highlights (and then i looked at his interceptions for some measure) but I haven't seen any "All Caleb Williams passes vs team A" to get a sense of his more basic stuff....

He's not. But if you fire Eberflus, that means you're moving on from Fields, which changes your prospects in the 2024 draft considerably. Right now Eberflus has the defense running through walls for him. And they look really, really good. Not sure how you fire him at this point. Eberflus and Fields...

I'm not even sure I want to hear the opinion of someone who doesn't understand what the Mandela effect is and is chalking up a difference of opinion to some sort of Mandela effect.... A Kyle Orton Mandela effect would have been something along the lines of people remembering Kyle Orton throwing the...

I have encountered this too many times in the last couple of years on social media, youtube comments, and anywhere casual Bears fans tend to congregate. The general gist of it is someone saying this: "We would've won that superbowl if it wasn't for Rex Grossman. They should've started Kyle Orto...

Caleb Shmaleb. All we heard last year was Bryce Young Bryce Young Bryce Young. Never heard of Caleb Williams until this year and how this class is the class you can't miss out on. Somehow I think if we keep Fields, next year is going to have some guy we gotta get as well... IDK man, Caleb Williams ...

Again, per DJ Moore - everyone on offense is expected to run the plays as called. Getsy doesn't give an option for audibles. I don't think that's quite true. I remember Bagent talking about how they get given 2 plays and can audible to the second based on what they see, which is why there are all t...

Ummmm, did Getsy call plays in GB? I thought Lafleur called the plays. Don't let facts ruin your narrative tho. My mistake. I had the impression from the (clip) conversation that he did. There's no need to be snotty about it. Just point it out. I think the context was Getsy was there to see Rodgers...

The best part of this game is that Viking fans have to live with having lost this game.

Oh I got one. My favorite was that I mentioned one time that I was still living with my mom and my room was in the basement, when I was 19. So any time I had something to say that disagreed with him, totally football related mind you, he'd come at me with the "well you live in your mom's basem...
