  1. That’s a terrible idea, Minnesota would use that 3rd to draft the next Tom Brady
  2. Or he just thinks the step up to Caleb will more than mitigate any success Fields may have against Chicago. A trade partner is better than no trade partner (or less return). I feel that’s as valid as any really, and why I wouldn’t fear trading Fields with in the division
  3. Well, I meant them more as the “Mystery Team”, but if everyone has truly seen enough of Justin in Chicago that’s he’s being traded away to make room for the next QB, I don’t know why Poles would hold back. If he feared Justin succeeding in Minnesota, you’d have to wonder why he’d trade him in the first place.
  4. I could see the Vikings trading for Fields if they lose Cousins
  5. I'll always miss Justin. I just love the guy as a person. However, my #1 tenet in life when dealing with a challenge is Quantity is a Quality. Period. If the Bears have to go through multiple prospects in their search for THE QB, so be it. They'll get there eventually
  6. he probably got canned because he had terrible takes on everything. My evidence is that tweet
  7. Eli should be bolded, he won 2 sb’s
  8. and Fields would be better at it
  9. Fields wasnt playing in the Ravens offense, he was playing in Getsy's 1, 2nd down halfback dive offense
  10. I dont think Fields is ever going to be a worldbeater until he is in a Ravens style office that utilizes his talents, including running the ball. I know people say/feel that will just shorten his career, but its what he excels at
  11. I was under the impression that Tomlin liked Fields when he was drafted, and Schafer is extrapolating that he may still like Fields. Who knows what the Steelers are thinking now
  12. and you are an Idiot. it's in you're name
  13. dude, I dont give a horsefeathers
  14. I wouldn't be surprised if Williams had a god complex. And, in today's NFL, that will be rewarded. The issue for me is that Williams was right where Fields was 4 years ago. I'm 50/50 on where the Bears go at this point, but if its anything other than Fields vs Williams, god knows what will happen, and I would be disappointed with anything other that those 2
  15. this is idiotic, but right on que
  16. I mean, if Caleb comes in and starts snapping off 15 yard bullets into the hands of open underutilized wr's in preseason, the players might get over JF before the season even starts I just worry the learning curve of the nfl may prohibit the atmospheric rise of any rook qb, with a few exceptions of course
  17. yes, but the scouts all rave about his quick release. you can hold the ball longer if you have a hair-trigger, Fields biggest issue wasn't holding onto the ball so long to extend a play, it was his reaction time from deciding where to throw to the point of actually throwing the ball, I felt
  18. I'd agree more or less with you, although I differ slightly on Center. I dont know who the likely FA's might be this year and I wouldn't mind paring a rook C with a rook QB, as long as the C is the better one available in the draft. Its a bit of a spin on the old "take a QB and his LT" take, but considering Wright was picked last year and they love Jones, I could see it working
  19. its all that money you made by selling nsbb, dont lie
  20. Houston played in one of the weakest divisions in the NFL AND struck gold with Stroud. I feel like the best-case scenario would be that the 2024 NFC Central mirrors the 2023 AFC Central with 3 teams making the playoffs. I dont think the Bears are going to win the division and think 9 wins and a playoff spot is much more likely than 10 wins
  21. I feel like they are on the 3 year upward trend that many orgs get. 2022 they just missed the playoffs but played strongly, 2023 made it to the NFC championship and played tough the whole way through the playoffs, I wouldn't be stunned if they were in the SB next year, honestly. They had some gafs mid-season in 2023 and a letdown is certainly possible, but I don't see a lot of strong teams in the NFC that could run with them. I feel like SF is due for the letdown, Shannahan hasn't proven he can get over that hill yet, and they are getting older and more expensive, outside of Purdy truly becoming Brady II
  22. yes, but they had an easy schedule this year and while they should have won 10 floundered to 7. We can debate the reasons, but Detroit will still be strong and GB still looks like a quality team. I think the division will be harder to win in 2024 than it was in 2023, actually, and wining 10 games sitting at the 3rd spot in the div seems unlikely
  23. I would be STUNNED if the bears won more than 9 games with a rookie, and that would include shoring up a ton of holes on offense coupled with a continued rise from the D. not unhappy, but stunned
  24. Whitehair was a godsend 8 years ago. up until his drafting, the bears had very little in the way of homegrown OL outside of Leno. Sad to see him go. Heres to green pastures as far as the eye can see old horse
  25. Ohtani cant read defenses and Soto has a negative rating on his pass rush according to PFF HARD PASS
