Yeah.....I'm not going to jail over a damn sports game. But to each his own. And he does own the Bears. As for the bad calls, yeah there were a bunch of them..... - Taunting call against Edwards, weak call but Edwards has a history (3 this season in 4 games) and it was the 1st play, gave them extra yards not necessarily drive changing probably would have scored anyway (of course would have if they called Rodgers for grabbing his facemask first, but that's literally never called on a QB) - backward run by Packers that somehow got a 1st down (of course it was 2nd and 1, they would have picked it up eventually) - holding call on Mustipher that wasn't a hold (Bears still scored a TD on that drive) - Packers got called for OPI in the endzone, which was very weak and they actually lost 4 points from that call. The only 1 really mattered was the neutral zone infraction. Fields rightfully thought he had a free play and threw up some crap. Of course, if Allen Robinson doesn't give up on his big armed, 4.4 running QB as he's escaping the pocket, he might have been able to make a play or get a DPI (his effort has been ass, I hope they look to trade him before the deadline). I'm with you on Robinson, throw in Jackson as well, anywhere but the Packers. Because, with a probability of one, they'll magically turn into professional football players once those shitheads acquire them.

That's OK, him and the Packers will get their asses kicked in the playoffs and they'll end winning just as many SB's the season as the Bears will - 0. In facing playoff teams they don't have the luxury of opposition coaching ineptness and cowardice the Bears provide, bites them in the ass every time and will again this season.

“I thought NFL defensive players would have been faster” says the QB brought down like 10 times this year because Fields thought he was faster than them That’s not what he said and what he did say was taken horribly out of context. But I guess people will just keep on misquoting that forever. Also you aren’t allowed to pile onto the post game misery What sucks now is we'll hear about how "great" these Packers are after week 1. I'd say they'd lose to TB, LA or ARI 10 out of 10 times, I'm bitter because the game was there for the Bears to win.

I think he improve on both of those facets, its there, he's not the dumb ass Mitch is, it'll get there, sucks they lost to a pretty ordinary team that just happens to have a great QB. Cannot wait for the day when Rodgers is gone, its coming soon.

He’s been such a terrible tackler this year. Earlier he let Aaron Jones drag him for 10 extra yards because he was trying to rip the ball away from him. It’s been a few years. He has no pride as a football player. He’d be gone if he didn’t have a big contract. Nagy punted two drives ago in GB territory. That was the game. Yes, had they gone for it, probably would have made it, and probably would have had an excellent chance at putting up another TD.

Really don't know why Eddie Jackson continues to start let alone play, he needs to be benched in the worst way.

Simple answer Nagy is playing "not to lose" which means take no chances, be conservative, play field position, etc. never mind that to beat these fucks you're going to have to be aggressive and take some chances. It's soooooo easy to coach against a Nagy team, you don't have worry about them going for it, he's predictably pathetic.

Guess they applied some physics, with such a trajectory there's a good chance it was going to be out the park, Tropicana Field ground rules.

Want he also 0 for 2 throwing out runners stealing second? Pitch framing, baseball IQ, leadership. Don't forget about the menacing looks and overall bitchy pettiness.

Additionally, think there's a pretty good chance they'll finish with more October victories than the White Sox.

Even with Kershaw and Muncy Dodgers should be heavy favorites, Giants may have had the better, by one game, regular season but, they are not the better team. The Giants are a one season phenomenon, I'd say they are excellent candidates for 30+ game swing next season - 100+ wins to 70+ and out the playoffs next season. Still, why can't this kind of Giants gypsy magic [expletive] happen for the Cubs, just once? I'd take it. A 30 game swing for the Cubs' current roster puts them at .500 for next year. Ok, I had 30+ above, you're correct, was not thinking in terms of 15-15 which would put them at 86-76, no? How about a 50+ game swing, would that work?

And unfortunately, I think they have the advantage against the Belt-less Giants too. At least the Dodgers are without Kershaw and Muncy Even without Kershaw and Muncy Dodgers should be heavy favorites, Giants may have had the better, by one game, regular season but, they are not the better team.

How confident are you in Dalton against the Raiders D? Not at all, in fact, Dalton at QB would be just the tonic, get back, feel good about themselves the Raiders' D needs. Dalton starting does not give the Bears a chance to win, it's an automatic loss.

Didn't see anything special from the Raiders, their defense is not good, if the Bears can give Justin some decent protection. He'll gash them, there's no reason to believe Mooney won't continue to run by people and we've seen, thankfully and it's about horsefeathering time, that the Bears have a QB who can actually hit on the deep ball. Unlike recent times opponents are going to have to respect the Bears ability to go deep.

I'm not here to form opinions on Fields right now because it's way too early. But I don't get why Bears fans are acting like Fields is some sure thing. I don't think anyone has said he's a sure thing. What Bears fans are "acting like" is open to interpretation. But what is clear is he is the most talented QB the Bears have ever had on the roster in their 102 years of existence. But I also think most of us are aware what happened to the last guy that with great talent (Cutler). I don't think Fields is a sure thing, but he's as close to a sure thing as the Bears have ever had And if he fails, I think it will say more about the organization as a whole than him as a talent. Today was exhibit A, sure Garrett had and the Browns D had a great day, blah, blah, blah but, Nagy was 80% of reason why they had such a great day.

They handed the ball off to Montgomery 10 times all game. In their rookie QBs’ first start, the Bears only handed the ball off to their best offensive player 10 times. And they weren’t down by enough points to justify not running the ball. I went into the game thinking there would be a lot more straight up runs and a lot more run pass options or gadget plays. Far fewer drop back passes. I can’t even conceive why Nagy thought this would work. I honestly believe Nagy has no clue as to what will work against anyone.

What exactly is roughing the passer? Bears get called for falling on the QB, Browns, on more than one occasion, hit Fields late and in the head and that's OK?

Quinn with a sack, WTF? Feels like its his first positive play as a Bear. Sort of like the one game Danny Jackson, as a Cub, managed to be effective for 6 innings.

Of course it did, very frustrating, there's myriad of ways one can be aggressive on offense in today' NFL regardless of the offensive line, we'll never see with Nagy. He's too scared, conservative to go down swinging, thinks his play not lose, limit mistakes approach is going to save his job which, it won't, in fact, it'll do the opposite and cost him his job. What was the point of Pace trying to upgrade speed at the receiving spots again?

Fixed, I used to think he's getting held like crazy and for whatever reason teams are being allowed to do so but, I don think that's it, the guy's toast. He done having big impact games or being the guy other teams have to specifically scheme to stop. I still wonder how he finished as the number 1 graded Linebacker on PFF's grades last season. Not that PFF is end all be all, but its looking at every snap he took and how he specifically performed on that play. Either he's doing a bunch of horsefeathers that goes unnoticed (beyond drawing double/triple teams) or there's a flaw in the system. As you said, there must be something else, he's been pretty much invisible for what, at least the last two seasons?

Me to, think he ran out of gas, so many unforced errors = tired, to his credit, Medvedev did execute also, looked good and had far more in the tank.

A lot of good points here. I am willing to be proven wrong but I just can't see a way that Nagy leads the Bears to a competent offense. Even if Fields eventually gets in there and plays well, I think his playcalling and game planning will always hold the offense back from being good, unless seeing him play well finally gives him the confidence to stop being a conservative turd. I think he's just not the guy, though if he was willing to hand the playcalling reigns over to someone more competent he could be the coach that oversees everything and fosters a good locker room which he seems to do well. That's the only way Nagy works as a head coach IMO, but he seems to have too big of an ego to permanently allow someone else to call plays. You saw how reluctant he was to do it last year, and when the offense had a couple decent games in a row he quickly took control back and the offense faltered again (though admittedly it may be because they played the Packers and Saints) Spot on, last year, he had the perfect chance to let it all hang out against the Saints, it was the ultimate what the horsefeathers game. And he still couldn't bring himself to be aggressive, I'm beginning to think he could have Mahomes, Rodgers or Brady and still manage to be the supremely incompetent wuss that he is.

Yeah, Nagy' ball-less-ness is getting real tiresome, his offense has been hot garbage. I know its only pre-season but, he's shown nothing hopeful even with a decently average QB.

I am so glad the Bears were never able to trade for or taken seriously as a destination for Carson Wentz. Had they been able to complete the trade, Justin Fields would be elsewhere, I also believe Wentz would have been a colossal failure as a Bear.
