Yeah that 2011 team seemed to be on fire right when Cutler got hurt. Maybe its the Bears not the Giants who beat the Patriots that year if Cutler doesn't try to make that tackle. 2012 they started 7-1 but seemed to run out of gas. I went to that Titans game in Nashville 55-10 or something like that, what a party that was. yeah, the offense seemed to really be finding its stride when cutler broke his thumb. i know martz had flaws and all and didn't get along great with cutler, but i was disappointed when they replaced him with tice. things were trending upward until they had to play caleb.

you're wrong. like, not even within the vicinity of not wrong. and i know you think you know everything. sitting justin fields for a whole year is malpractice. Didn’t see the entire year thing, that’s not happening. Only way it does is if Dalton wins 12. Which also is not happening. Anyway, pace and Nagy signed secret extensions and won’t be pressured into starting fields before week 4. right - agreed. and sorry, re-reading that i sound like an horsefeathers when i was just trying to be a smart ass.

substanceBears have done as well as Dallas but for some reason people pretend dallas has been a quality program this whole time and the bears a joke. The Lovie era is grossly undervalued. Who gives a horsefeathers about style points when it’s no better at the end of the day? The Lovie era would look so different if the Bears won their last game of 2008 against a crappy Texans team, if Cutler didn’t break his thumb when the Bears were 7-3 in 2011 and if they weren’t one of the 5% of 10-6 teams that don’t make the playoffs. Shoulda woulda coulda but that was an 8 year run where they were a legit playoff caliber team in 6 of the seasons. Heck throw in Trestmans first season with Lovie’s remnants when they were a bad all out blitz playcall from the playoffs. Sure many of these would be borderline playoff teams but it changes the perception of the tenure greatly. people don't look back at the 2011-12 seasons fondly enough because of that stuff. those were very good teams.

nah. sorry, this is silly. the dude is ready. you don't waste a cheap rookie contract year at the most important position in sports. if he's good, he covers up a lot of bad. and i'm pretty sure he's horsefeathering good. It would be wasting a season if they are a contender.or they didn't have 16 or so mil locked up with Dalton and Foles as far as utilizing Fields like Seattle did. However, the line is trash and the Bears aren't going to win regardless of how he plays. at the very best, you're wasting an entire year of development time. kinks he could easily get sorted out this year will have to wait until next. sitting and watching isn't helping him, and by all accounts he was one of the 1-2 most NFL ready QBs in this draft and ran a similar style of offense in college - so his understanding of the offensive concepts shouldn't be in question like it might be for others who truly could benefit by watching. you're also probably overstating just how bad the line is. it's not good, but the interior is solid. it could easily be just fine bad rather than disastrously bad. and fields's mobility would make it look better because of how much of a threat his speed is and how defenses would have to adjust to counter it instead of just pinning their ears back and going after the big old slow guy.

every time i put any thought into it, i can't even begin to wrap my head around the thought process that led to that rick mirer trade. the #11 pick in the first round. for a guy who had already proven to be a special level of bad in the NFL. how? https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/M/MireRi00.htm - for reference

i hated this dopey jerk so much team horsefeathers it i'm throwing it downfield all the way. gotta unleash the dragon.
-
well, that's better than having him do what most #2 QBs do, which is basically nothing

Probably shouldn’t put any stock in preseason like you said but the 1st and 2nd teams getting noticeably destroyed in TOP in all 3 games is interesting Yeah I think the O-Line and defense are legit question marks based on how they played against top guys. They both took major steps back last year and the only legit change that was made was losing Kyle Fuller and Charles Leno and replacing Pagano with an internal candidate. It sucks because even if Fields is good, the Bears probably wasted their last window and it's going to take time to get back to where they were, and do so without a first round pick next year. if fields is good, the window is always especially so during the rookie contract. but either way, always.
-
watch this as a pre-game appetizer, even if you have to click out of here. good film breakdown of fields last week.

i've been seeing a lot of people whose opinions on OL play i would respect say pretty positive things about borom in camp. it would be cool if he could win the job now and turn out to be a solid LT...then just throw jenkins into the shallow end to start at RT if/when he's ready. then switch them next year if you want to get crazy. but yeah i realize it's crazy to expect anything out of a 5th round rookie LT.

This is a disaster: This is annoying (because I won't get to see any Tweets about Justin Fields doing Justin Fields things - but really hope it's not a lingering thing):
-
the closest we're ever gonna get to having the bears on hard knocks

[highlight=yellow][/highlight] Assuming I'm correctly guessing what you're talking about, it's preseason. Why ever take a touchback? Because you don’t want Fields to start a possession at the 1-yard line? They need to find a returner

What the hell is wrong with you people actually watching these games and emotionally invested in their outcomes?
-
you think if the vaccine was against giving up 7 first inning runs, jake would get it?
-
This was still a joint practice with the Dolphins right? Carving up an opposing D like that even if its behind closed doors in a practice is awesome to hear. yes still the dolphins

also, lmao

These reports seem to get better by the day.
