No ****.  We won't be favored in any game...not even Detroit.

If Fields is healthy enough to play - play him.  If not - sit him.

I don't believe in keeping a player out just because he could get hurt.

Let's see what Fields can do throwing to not just to Kmet and Claypool, but Harry...and maybe Velus Jones.   And Pringle.

 Agreed.

 Stay in the pocket for as long as possible to judge Offensive Line and not expose yourself.

 There's no need to run anymore. It's been established that Fields can run.

 Lets walk into next season with the fattest bank account on the NFL planet.

 Tampa Bay bought a Super bowl ... L.A. bought a super bowl ...

 Take the coin and buy a team on March 13th 2023.

 And then the killer moves on draft weekend.

 Will it reflect into a Super bowl ? Or one year before that ?

Here is the thing.  Fields is hurt!

They are rushing him back.  He will be wincing in pain after every throw.  He will be in total agony every single time he takes a hit.

Torn ligaments in your shoulder don't heal in two weeks.  There is no way he should be playing in this game.

If he is healthy to play this season then play him.  But I guarantee you he is not healthy right now.

My guess is they are planning to shoot him up with pain killers and hope for the best. 

I doubt he finishes the game.

Yeah! More intelligent than the folks that say as long as he isnt dead yet he should be playing.

Me either. But some will be happy regardless.

As long as he can throw a pick 6 in the flat you will be cheering.

Anyone still need convincing on Jalen Carter?

I’ll take him and their center (Sedrick Van Pran)…

Dave, you prefer Carter or Anderson?

I was reading today Carter has something like 4 sacks and 13 TFLin two years. Guys like Quinnen Williams had that one year.  Is Carter a late bloomer?  He did make plays last night

Jeff, honestly I’d be happy with either one. I’m leaning Carter right now though.

 Why do we keep putting it off to complete an offense with high draft picks before we move on to defense in the high draft picks?

 How has that worked out for us for the last 37 years?

Because the team for the most part over the years...decades has had solid defenses and absolutely putrid offenses. 

That's not the case this year.

It's still early but Bears could go with any number of positions on offense or defense in R1 but D-line seems to be the biggest need.

 I wonder about what HALAS HALL is saying to Justin Fields about wide receivers in the upcoming draft ?

 Or T.E.'s for that matter. Or pass catching Running Backs.

Not a damn thing.  They'll ask Eberflus for his opinion of the roster but that's why Poles has a scouting staff.
