If the Bears score 5 points the rest of the game they will have scored more than we have in any game this year. 
 

And Fields is responsible for over 200 yards in the first half. 

If and when and one game a lot of guys look good in a game or two a season it doesn't change they don't even average 16ppg.

We get it bro. You like fields.  My brother n law loves the bears so we watch a lot of games. Fields has been trash last year and just as bad this year. Bears fans aren’t sold on him and already want a new qb. But it’s ok.  Like who you like man. 

Peyton Manning would have been garbage in a zone read heavy O.  Cam Newton would have been garbage in Tom Brady’s late Patriot scheme. 

Fields hasn’t been good.  But the Bears have done him little favors overall since drafting him.  I mean he is running tonight but overall the O has never been catered to his strengths

where you get drafted has a lot to do with your ability to have success

Fun fact his 2 starting tackles were 5th round picks (and it shows).

Not sure what the Nagy administration was thinking, but it feels like the Eberflus staff is gonna make him fit their system rather than shaping the system for him.  And if that doesn't work they'll probably look for a new QB.  Just my speculation.

When you keep spending huge resources on QBs and they all suck, it might not be all the QBs' fault.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
