Got to hope Chris Jones is on a pitch count.

Well looks like another season just watching the games casually with no expectations.

Either they’ll figure it out as the season goes on or Poles will have to decide if it’s coaches, Fields or both that need to go.  It doesn’t speak well for the coaches that Fields so far is regressing and that opposing players are saying they know when the Bears are running screens resulting in an easy pick six.
The only encouraging aspect is they now have a team president to evaluate and make decisions instead of the McCaskeys.

Very disappointing. Lat season I started getting some interest back, Fields was fun to watch. It's a fukking drag right now. I thought we were supposed to have one of the best linebacker groups in the NFL. I try not to buy into the hype, but damn the defense has looked bad... I know they kept us in the game yesterday, but they continually give up chunks of yards, and seem to be terrible at defending 3rd and long.

Fields is rarely leaving the pocket so far.

They can’t protect him so why not scheme to buy some time?

With your two starting guards out it’s a bad time to prove he can throw from the pocket.

I don’t get why he games in my area. Watching replay on the NFL channel it looks like it is mainly Fields holding onto the ball way too long. On one of the sacks I counted 7 seconds, most were at least 4. He needs to get the ball out and once hit’s 3 take off running.

How can you expect much from that zoo of an offensive line? Good grief its horrible. Fields gets zero protection. The whole left side blows chunks. Patrick needs to be replaced immediately and given his walking papers

Our line has no chance because opposing defenses know that they can sell out and bull rush every play because Fields isn’t going to burn them downfield.

Our OL blows chunks and I am not giving them a pass at all, but there are plays where Fields HAS protection, and doesnt throw the ball to the wide open man.  The Roshon Johnson seam route is a perfect example.  Stop overthinking it, and throw to who is open.  Getsy and whoever is so in his mind he cant even play football any more.

This incompetent coaching staff took the thing that made Fields beareable (pun intended) to watch (his scrambling and running ability) and decided to make him a statue instead. Un-**** believable. Instead of building on what he does well they take that away and expect him to be better ?!? If they spent the offseason doing that then they are truly morons, even more so than Trestmans or Nagys of the football world....

An occassional sprint out might help and I don't mean those naked bootlegs where Fields always struggles with (the defense knows how to play those).

I'm still in favor of letting Fields work through this.  But for those clamoring for Bagent (like most of Chicago except for the diehard Fields fans) how about this Sunday when we're down 24-7 in the 4th quarter they trot Bagent out.  The Chiefs may be pinning their ears back or they may be sitting back in a soft zone. 

Either way Bagent gets some time to get evaluated against something more than PS guys.

You mean down 24-7 at half....  personally I say let Fields sink this game. Let it REALLY sink in for those who think he's the answer. Hopefully they'll be no question he needs time on the bench after this....but usually with this team they'll make sure they are dead and buried and THEN they'll do something...
