Bears are getting the #1 pick.

Justin Fields is insanely bad. Blows my mind the hype he was getting before the season, he was freaking terrible last year.
So much for his comments about, "Playing his game". Dude sucks. Wish I wouldn't have drafted DJ Moore :bang:

the thing is the Bears listened to all the critics and said we need to make him a better pocket passer. And they destroyed him. He had 1100 yards rushing last year, he's got just over 100 in 3 games this year. Clearly he has to get better in the pocket but they spent so much effort trying to fit him into a box that they took away the part of his game that was actually really good.

210 points with AJ Brown still to go. If I had played Achane I'd have about 270 points! 51 plus from Zach Moss, 45 plus from Kenneth Walker, I would have had almost 170 points from those 3 RB's alone if I had played Achane. Looks like I'm going to win easily anyways.

Worst since the time I sat Corey Dillon on the day he broke the NFL rushing record! Except I lost that day.

He has never thrown for 300 yards in a game and hasn't even sniffed 3000 yards in a year. When you can't throw its easier for teams to shut down the scrambles. I think the only reason people still excuse Fields and blame the coaches is because he scored well in fantasy last year.

I think he sucks and have said so all along, but the bears are trying to make him something he's not.

They had the first pick in the draft they could have taken a QB they didn't need to tank for one next year unless they just think next years QB's are better. Which they are IMO.

But it was entirely predictable trying to make Fields a pocket passer was going to fail

I don't think the coaches have much of a choice.
