    His early draft results have been real bad... Even with Brisker. I’m not surprised a bunch of 4-7 round picks have not been able to step in and immediately fill key holes on a bad roster. Almost no other team in NFL history would start a 5th round rookie at LT. What do you expect? Gordon seems to have improved a bit since his disastrous first 2 games, you mentioned Brisker has been solid. Jones is a disaster but hasn’t proven or not proven he can be an NFL receiver yet as he’s missed so much time. I mean horsefeathers him for botching 2 critical punts that had a major effect in losses but he was drafted as a receiver too. No one forced him to go DB-DB-KR with his first three picks when he knew full well what the offense needed. The fact that he can't make the field as a receiver consistently on *this* roster is the most damning thing you could say about VJJ.

    I'm more in between than I was two weeks ago. He's gone from indescribably awful to just regular bad. We can ride out another season and a half of this to see if he develops.

    Fields was flawed but acceptable tonight. It wasn't good but it wasn't the tire fire from the first four games. That's a hilarious way to lose tho.
  4. Hairyducked Idiot
    Dude wasn't even trying to bat it. Fields plunked him in the helmet.

    re: OL I'm not married to any of our OL long-term. Jenkins is probably my favorite. It's not hard to see him becoming a really good guard in his prime. The thing with Jones is just philosophical. Can he be a decent tackle? Probably. But there are certain positions where I want prime talent and others where I'm ok with trying to get average players with minimal investment, and I don't consider LT to be one of the bargain positions.

    Fields has hit that threshold twice in 15 career starts. Seems right in line
  7. Hairyducked Idiot
    I am unreasonably confident that the bears win this game
  8. Hairyducked Idiot
    25 isn't young in nfl years.

    He looked very solid. He did all the things he needed to do. Checked down a lot but that's fine
  10. Hairyducked Idiot
    That was fields' least objectionable game this season by a wide margin. That's all I care about
  11. Hairyducked Idiot
    It was a legit ish block in the back but the Vikings player sold it hard with a flop
  12. Hairyducked Idiot
    Even that play that ended the drive was fine. He found his guy one on one and threw it in a spot that had a chance. It didn't work out but that's fine.
  13. Hairyducked Idiot
    I will say this:. Fields looks better in the pocket today. he hasn't run himself into trouble. That was a whole good drive
  14. Hairyducked Idiot
    It was a good throw. Even if it takes a great catch, giving your receiver a chance to make a great catch is what I want to see from my QB. It was possibly his only good throw of the half

    I am not a fan of Poles' first draft class
  16. Hairyducked Idiot
    Bad throw. Mooney had leverage and fields misplaced the throw to never give him a chance Then another bad throw kills the drive. A better receiver would have caught that one though

    Ffs have you horsefeathering lost your mind? https://www.theringer.com/2021/4/14/22383093/justin-fields-draft-stock-narratives-pro-day
  18. Hairyducked Idiot
    There were some fields doubters but they were written off as racist
  19. Hairyducked Idiot
    Lawrence, Wilson, Lance. He was fourth.
  20. Hairyducked Idiot
    Fields is 32nd in completions and passing yards. Tied for 30th in TDs tho.
  21. Hairyducked Idiot
    I dunno if I'd call the 4th qb taken, after being passed over by 10 teams, a 'prized' prospect.

    When it became clear they were going to give Pace one more draft, this was basically the exact scenario most of us begged not to have happen. Specifically trading up for a QB? Trade up for a QB but fire everyone after a year so the new QB doesn't get continuity. Bonus points for the new regime being completely disinterested in giving the new QB a supporting cast

    The chess.com report mainly shows that he cheated online a lot more than he admitted to at this point, including in some events for prize money. Historically, online chess was never considered serious because it would be practically impossible to stop cheating. As long as the cheaters aren't stupid or overly greedy, then can goose up their results a little bit by checking their phones on key moves once in awhile. When the pandemic hit, there were some attempts to bring serious competitive chess online with some prize money, but everyone kinda knew that trying to keep cheating out of it would be like trying to keep PEDs out of the tour de France. People won't be happy with him for cheating in prize money events online, but that's still a much lesser sin than cheating OTB (over the board). They still don't have conclusive proof that he cheated against Carlsen. The "irregularities" in other otb games are awfully thin. The best analogy I've seen so far is that he's a B student with a history of cheating in other classes who suddenly got every answer right on a calculus test that no one had aced in years. After the test, he couldn't show his work to explain how he got the right answer on one of the harder problems. But no one found a crib sheet.

    The bears have just enough stupid dumb stuff like defense and running game to keep any game close and winnable. I hate it
