    After seeing some of the tape, he could have absolutely torched the Vikings, that's the frustrating part. I wouldn't be surprised if Goff and the Lions light the blitzing Vikings up.

    When you've reached that point it's lost, sports is all about pull the trigger or not, nothing good ever comes of over thinking or hesitancy.

    Regarding Fields is it the slowness of his delivery or the lack of mental aptitude? With Fields I've gotten the impression he oftentimes has the mental part correct, we've seen examples where he's looking in the correct direction or appears to know where to go but, the ball doesn't come out.

    Me to, I'd really like to see Phillies - Rangers though, far more entertaining match up.

    I don't get it either, are things like these harder to see on the line? Because, to most anyone it's very clear there's two un-blocked defenders and it's probably not a good idea to go with the running play right at them.

    Not expecting a win, just would like the Bears to not, as they've so often done on Sunday night games, completely crap the bed. It's probably asking too much.

    I thought about a scenario in which Poles trades 1OA (Carolina') for an absolute haul, and drafts JJ McCarthy. He'd probably be crucified by the Chicago media and fan base but, what if Bagent continues to play well? Meaning, Bagent is Poles' QB, he found him, the fact that he's playing well perhaps, suggests Poles knows what to look for in a QB? But, given how Poles has generally fucked things up I have a hard time believing he's competent at anything. So, what we saw yesterday may just a blip on the radar, guess we'll see next Sunday. I'm almost certain the Chargers are going to bring all sorts of blitzes testing Bagent' ability to execute hot reads. Also, it sure would be a great story that a kid from a Chicago suburb helps to bring the Bears back to the playoffs and ends the nightmare vs. the Packers.

    It's too bad we cannot give Bagent Fields' arm or Fields Bagent' ability to process and get the ball out quick. Quite probably if Bagent had a bigger arm there's a chance he may have been drafted.

    They're roasting Getsy on the Score because he told the truth about Fields. He's got a QB who's limited what else is there to say?

    Texas loss was vintage September 2023 Cubs, as many have said, you could feel the Altuve HR coming. Don't know why they threw him anything off speed, at very least, I would have come after him with hard stuff, probably away.

    I agree, biggest load of BS ever, you cannot coach processing slowness or lack of awareness into someone. All these pundits, and Williams' father spewing this nonsense are jackasses. Although in the case of Williams' father it may be more of a nod towards future negotiations.
  12. gflore34
    Hopefully, the Bears ownership plays no part in the selection of the HC, possibly GM, and its left to Warren. Don't know if I have confidence in Warren to make the correct choices either but, he's not the McCaskeys which is a good place to start.
  13. gflore34
    I think the point is when a QB is fundamentally flawed it's hard to look good as a coach.
  14. gflore34
    NFL being a copycat league means the Raiders are going to run the same blitzes, we'll see if Bagent is able to get the ball out.
  15. gflore34
    I think Poles is more in the Maye camp than Williams, which is a guess on my part. However, I think Poles puts a quite a bit of stock in a position' ideal physical attributes. Such as QB's should be tall with a big arm, I think Maye has the arm strength and is closer to a legit 6-4 than Williams is to 6-1. I've watched both play, I can't help but see some similarities, in that, Williams, much like Fields did, has all day to throw. ND got after him and he didn't beat their blitzes along with throwing some terrible interceptions. Maye has made some good plays and bad plays, he though, doesn't get the amount of time that Williams does and, he's not surrounded by as much talent as Williams either. Yet, he's managed to put up some good numbers.
  16. gflore34
    Williams or Maye having a WR room of Moore and Harrison Jr. sounds pretty enticing, trading down probably removes their shot a Harrison Jr.
  17. gflore34
    Despite being terrible, I'm almost certain Getsy had a game plan to handle blitzes, anyone with a functioning brain cell could figure out Minnesota was going to attempt to pressure Fields. It's on Fields for lack of execution, slow delivery, etc. Although I'm not certain of the results, I'll bet we'll see the ball come out quicker, less QB sacks and pressures with Bagent next game.
  18. gflore34
    Why? This team, while not extraordinarily talented, has still grossly under-performed, that's on the coaching staff.
  19. gflore34
    Didn't see the game but, from some of the comments reads like the same old, same old with Fields? Holding on to the ball too long, being fooled by defense, etc.
  20. gflore34
    As strange as it sounds does Arizona have a better shot against Atlanta than Philadelphia? However, Braves pitching is a mess, Cubs jumped on them and probably should have taken 2 of 3. Just don't see them getting past the Phillies.
  21. gflore34
    I really liked Neal Anderson, he was a change up from Sweetness in that he was always a threat to take it to the house. Once he got behind the defense no one was catching him. Also remember him playing special teams as a rookie first rounder and literally catapulting himself towards the ball carrier.
  22. gflore34
    As the OL is getting healthier and starting to gel I think Fields will get a little more time. More time hopefully means taking deep shots with Scott or Jones Jr. Really don't care about the score just want to see Justin continue to be decisive and aggressive, taking more steps towards being an NFL QB. On D, even though Cousins is pretty good against a blitz, I expect Eberflus will keep trying to bring pressure, there's no reason to stop blitzing.
  23. gflore34
    A bidding war for the overall first pick but, still be a position to draft Marvin Harrison Jr. would be the dream scenario. If Fields is good enough to pass on drafting a QB that'll probably mean a few more wins for the Bears. With their own pick they'll end up drafting in the teens, if they have the first overall. Poles could get a haul and still remain in the top 5 thereby remaining in position to draft Harrison Jr.
  24. gflore34
    Pretty solid bets, I believe he's going to have quite a few helpers, appears to have good vision and is good passer. Teams are going to focus on him not hitting the back of the net and he's smart enough to take advantage.
  25. gflore34
    Are the Dodgers done? I know Arizona is playing above their talent level however, the Dodgers appear listless to me. Their lineup is very dependent on Betts and Freeman, they don't have the depth of the Braves lineup. You shut down 1 and 2 and there's really no one else that can hurt you.
