    He’s not him

    Cubs got their rib guy back, y’all thought you could just throw this fact into the game thread?
  3. jersey cubs fan
    Why do you hope he’s the answer?

    No, they can’t find better coaching in season. Occasionally you can upgrade a position coach with a guy that is just sitting around for some reason, but this isnt just a matter of a team needing a better OLine coach to help the players execute the plan. This is a poor coaching staff that is filled with guys who probably won’t be in the league next year if this continues. Getsy will have to be an OC at some second rate college if he can’t take advantage of Fields’ athleticism. Maybe a Northwestern would hire him. Williams might latch on as a secondary coach, but who else is running this system that would want him? Maybe he goes the way of Mel Tucker (just not all the way) and can emerge as a college head coach. But no NFL team will hire him as DC with this unit.

    Im not complaining about (whatshisname again?), it’s more about Poles’ habit of continually passing on talent available to him. He could have greatly improved the offensive line a year ago and he punted. He could have done so many things to have this team in a better situation today, but like the John Fox of GMs he’d rather punt on 3rd down than try and score.

    Why are we blaming the media for this stuff? Eberflus is in way over his head. He’s a goober and has been since the beginning, cowardly decision after cowardly decision last season. A defensive minded head coach whose defense does not pose a challenge to opposing teams. He explicitly said he did not want to call defensive plays because he wanted to focus on all aspects of the team and he is completely clueless about the offense. This is not a Chicago media story. This is a Chicago Bears front office and coaching staff story.

    I believe this is what they call the bargaining stage of grief

    I think having less than great football players is a side effect of prioritizing athleticism and build in the draft, but it doesn’t have anything to do with knowing basics. Football is not that technical of a sport.
  10. jersey cubs fan
    I believe they can be, because Eberflus screams “guy who can lose the building in a heartbeat” and the talent level is low enough that they are capable of looking bad against any level of competition, even the Packers. And we already know the season rides on Fields taking a leap. If that does not happen, this team is going to struggle, if he regresses (entirely possible with a shellshocked qb) this team will be worse than last year.

    You are probably right on the first point, but that’s a risk Im willing to take. At this rate he is a release candidate before the trade deadline. He’s bringing nothing to the table and has brought nothing to the table since being acquired. Id much rather risk losing this one mediocre receiver than a) lose all the guys that must be pissed off at his lack of effort, or b) show the guys that there are no repercussions for loafing. Eberflus stresses this stuff. It’s the one thing in his bag of tricks. I don’t have any faith that he’ll be the head coach that brings success to this team, but if he can’t backup the talk on hustle, he doesn’t stand a chance to make it through the season with this locker room respecting him.

    You can’t let him be active in week 2. Bench him now. Get it out of the way. He’s not going to improve on his own volition. He’s had a year with this team. I don’t care about some missed practice. He was in the building the entire time. He knows what he’s supposed to do and he chose to dog it on opening day. He should have been on a short leash to start the season and he’s already burned any veteran benefit of the doubt. He’s simply not nearly talented, let alone productive, enough, to tolerate that minimal level of effort. He’s the 3rd receiver on a team that is going to let him walk this offseason. If he wants to come back and practice hard to regain active duty, let him prove it.
  13. jersey cubs fan
    Okay, thanks. Makes sense. But they don’t have three better receiving options. Kmet is pretty clearly the 3rd best option.
  14. jersey cubs fan
    Can you clarify your Kmet thoughts?

    Bears expected win total ticked up, but still drafting twice in top 5

    A winnable game in the off-season may be a struggle as the Bears face a real defense (something they don’t do well with) and a mediocre offense (something this defense can’t handle). the home team is a 3 point favorite. It will be hot, humid and stormy. The heat and humidity will take a toll on depth, which the bears don’t have. They probably bounce back effort wise and put up a fight, but lose by 1. over/under on Fields turnovers- 1.5

    That’s on them for dipping into the aging Packer legend well again.

    What if the story of Achilles was about a Greek hero felled by astroturf?

    Lots of people thought Justin Fields would take the Josh Allen leap, they were partially right but they didn’t know Josh Allen leapt into Justin Fields body first
  21. jersey cubs fan
    The weird thing about those teams is the fandom crossover is nearly a concentric circle. Whether they are New Jersey residents or from Long Island, I know plenty of Mets/Jets fans. That’s a rough life. Yankees fans tend to be Cowboys fans, although some a Giants but most think football is beneath them.

    There used to be a horse track at this complex, should go ahead and put him down Churchill downs style
  24. jersey cubs fan
    Love was not good, but he didn’t horsefeathers up and faced a pathetic defense. Fields was not good, but did horsefeathers up, in many of the same ways he’s done in the past.
  25. jersey cubs fan
    If this offense remains putrid, DJ Moore will demand a trade this offseason. He’s got one chance to break the bank in free agency and that won’t happen if he’s getting 2 targets a game with the Bears and breaking in a rookie next season.
