Fields was sacked 36 times in just over 300 drop backs last year.

This year he has been sacked 23 times in 138 drop backs.

Lucas Patrick looked as bad as Mustipher. Meanwhile Alex Bars starts for the Raiders.

Bring on Dieter Eiselen, he looked good in preseason.

And the Raiders let loose of their RG Leatherwood.

Bars had his flaws but I bet he could play guard or center for this team.

I had it set to record because I was at work but it didn't for the first time ever.  I guess I got lucky.  I watched a youtube highlights of the game.  Fields has so much talent but he has to get his **** together.  He has the talent to be great.  But if he doesn't get it between the ears and get the game to slow down for him we are screwed.

He has the potential to be as good as Mahomes.  He has that athletic ability.  He has the drive.  But does he have the mental acuity?

I'm glad I have divested in the NFL in general. Used to be I would've stayed up and watched this game. I fell asleep by mid first quarter.. To lose to Washington.. Pathetic! Start of the season, writers were saying the Bears were the worst team in the league.. Now I believe it...

... and the Bears pull a Lucy......

The game was best summed up from a friend who picked the Bears (despite me telling him it was not a good idea) in a text after the game last night of 4 short words:

"What the **** was THAT ?"

That should be engraved on a plaque and nailed to Poles' fat ass.

The Bears have an Offensive coordinator who thinks he can fit square pegs in round holes, calling plays for a glacially minded QB, whose blockers (and I use that term in the loosest possibly way) aren't even at pee-wee level throwing to stumbling, non-handed WRs. Yeah. That's a plan Poles. That's really going to work. Good job....

Pretty much any good vibes from the last week's game are gone and I'm pretty sure I'm not alone.

As it is they are jeopardizing their once every 20 or so year relevance game in 2024 or 2025 right now. What a ****-show on offense.........

It takes teams about a quarter of the season to begin to shake out what they are and we now have a pretty definitive answer- Not good. The Bears have an alright defense (at least vs bad teams). They have some good (not great) RBs. They have a kicker. But the rest unfortunately garbage. Right now "Go Bears" feels more like "Go Bears (and stay away)".....

Just when you figure a franchise cannot dig themselves deeper they find a new way to auger in even more. It may be past time to start the chant of "Fire GEORGE !".....

Jones had his worst game last night.  That's going to happen especially for a rookie.  We can only hope Patrick moves to center where the demands of the position better fit his skill set.   But that might not happen until Cody comes back or they promote Leatherwood.

Fans hold their breath every time Fields drops back.  Is he gonna get pummelled?  Is he going to hold the ball?  Is he going to throw?  Is he going to take off? 

This is not an NFL offense.

And with all the holes on offense - their front 7 on defense needs attention too.  No ability to stop the run and no consistent pass rush.

You know things are bad when Charles Leno played better than all 5 of our guys.

So Bears. Its become unwatchable. When they were ahead I went and dumped the garbage, I knew it wouldn't last. It didn't. What a syrup of sewage and bile the nfl has become.
