Looks like Fields might have a shot at Lamar’s record after all

 

At this rate, he'll break it today

Do it today or it doesn't count.

 

He did miss a game so it would still be 16 games at least lol

 

Edit: just realized Lamar only played 15 games in his record breaking season

Saints up early against Philly. A win there is a first necessary step to having Minny still in play for the bye next week.

It’s like everyone else on the offense is in on the tank except Fields

[Tryptamine]

This oline....

[Derwood]

Has this team EVER had a good O-Line?

[UMFan83]

13 drop backs, believe he’s been hit 3 times on a pass, 3 sacks, and 3 scrambles, 4 clean pass attempts

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I changed my mind. The mood in Bears fandom is that there is no doubt whatsoever that there will be a dozen QB hungry teams ready to enter a historic bidding war and give us a Ricky Williams-like haul for our pick while we only trade down a couple of spots and manage to snag the top player we wanted anyway.

 

Seeing their collective meltdown if we win this game would be worth it.

But our OL is fine and we only need to upgrade Mustipher.

Fields not running with this OLine and WRs is just as dangerous to his health than just running. And it seems like every time he does run a lot, they’re working on his leg on the sideline.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I'm generally anti-tank but there's no universe in which I want the Bears to win this game, which has serious implications for both the value of their draft pick and the Packers' playoff odds.

 

Pretty certain the outcome of the Bears/Lions game is meaningless to the Packers’ playoff odds.

 

That's dumb. They're both 7-8 and on the bubble. I can't be expeced to actually check playoff scenarios.

[UMFan83]

Has this team EVER had a good O-Line?

 

It was pretty good in 05-06. That’s the last time I can remember it being considered good

It was good that first Trestman year too. Pretty good in 2018 too (was very healthy).

 

They've rarely been as bad as this year though.

[UMFan83]

Not only does the offensive line suck but the ones that are deemed starters go down with injury every week

[UMFan83]

Fields fumble luck finally ends

[Irrelevant Dude]

How is that not helmet to helmet against Fields?

[WrigleyField 22]

Okay, take Fields out.

[UMFan83]

There is nothing that can be gained by Fields continuing to play. He can’t even get a pass off whether it’s due to poor pats blocking, WRs not getting open or Fields indecisiveness

[Soul]

He’ll get hurt if he stays in, clearly DET will get to him and there aren’t any targets. Can see it coming a mile away.

[WrigleyField 22]

Houston not doing their part for the #1 seed, but Zona and Denver both keeping it close for some possible top 3 protection.

 

Not overly worried about Bears winning this week or next, especially with an increasing chance the Bye is still up for grabs next week.

[Derwood]

Texans not helping the quest for #1 pick

[UMFan83]

I do wonder why they won’t roll out fields more considering how impossible it’s been to get a pass off under center

[Soul]

Looks like Fields was already hurt. Two times in the tent in the first half.

 

If he plays again today it’s coaching malpractice.

[Derwood]

That's a silly INT

[Soul]

I’m not sure I would classify that as a play even.
