surf rock posted:The Lions were already going to be brutal this year, but the injuries took them from something like a 3-win team to a possible 0-win team. Frankly, though, that's probably a good thing; secure that #1 pick, Detroit. The one good thing about this situation is what do the other NFC North teams have in terms of the future? Not much. The Packers have Jordan Love I guess, who's looked pretty much awful every time he's hit the field, and what's happening to Rodgers after this season? No one really knows but if he moves on they will have nothing basically. Vikings have Kirk with a 45 MILLION cap hit this year and a UFA next year. Who knows what happens there but paying him again seems unlikely. Lions... well the Lions don't have anything really in terms of QBs. So on the bright side, Chicago is getting a nice head start on everyone else in terms of the next generation of QBs, provided Fields can learn and grow which I think he can. Hasn't been amazing so far but there is definitely promise.

The punishment for mocking the belt is that you mocked the belt and Rodgers will own you.

So hey, all you Bears fans who were beating the drums since April that Justin Fields Must Play, I do hope you're happy. Because this is what having a rookie QB looks like. He's going to struggle, he's going to throw dumb interceptions, he's going to look really bad sometimes. Accept right now that the 2021 Bears season is already lost. The only thing we can hope for is that Fields looks measurably better in Week 18 than he did in Week 3. Rookie QBs don't win. The best rookie QB ever statistically was Justin Herbert last season and the Chargers still limped to 7-9. I can't listen to Chicago sports talk radio anymore, because the loving hypocrites who demanded that Fields must play are now the same ones pissing and moaning because the Bears lost to the Packers. Hello, morons, THIS IS WHAT YOU ASKED FOR. You stamp your feet and cry for the new kid and then are shocked, SHOCKED Fer gently caress's sake. Accept a year of mediocrity where the Bears can play with the other mediocre teams (hi, Vikings!), have a good chance to beat the poo poo teams (Good Morning, Detroit!) but will get your face caved in by the good teams. You know, like the Rams, Browns, and yes, the Packers. Hell, at least it wasn't a 20 point beatdown like it was against LA and Cleveland. Losing only by 10 to Green Bay is progress! This season is entirely about Fields' development, and seeing which players on offense he develops chemistry with and who needs to be replaced for 2022, when things have a chance to improve.

Please don't judge us on what Score listeners say. I think all of us in here just wanted Fields to start because the faster he's in there, the quicker he will develop or flame out.

Not saying he deserves to be fined (he doesn't) but if the NFL is going to fine players for taunting other players, what is the punishment for taunting paying fans? What if he pretended to moon the the woman that flipped him off?

Poor Lions, they just need a confidence booster to try and get things on track and instead they're gonna get destroyed by the Rams next weekend. And a good chunk of their fans are going to be rooting for it to happen, myself included.

Who knows what happens there but paying him again seems unlikely. Lions... well the Lions don't have anything really in terms of QBs. This is a pretty good take. Like you're saying... -The Lions are in the first year of what will realistically be a 3+ year rebuilding project, and the odds are high that it'll fall apart like the Dolphins effort did because (1) tanking in the NFL is hard and (2) are the Lions REALLY gonna be the team that succeeds despite it all? - The Vikings are going to mediocre their way to a roughly .500 record and not be in contention for top QB talent in the draft. Unless they win the Russell sweepstakes, they're gonna have a rookie, a journeyman, or fuckin' Kirk back. Meanwhile, Adam Thielen is exiting his prime and both their o-line and defense remain question marks, so odds that this team suddenly jumps to greatness are low. High floor, low ceiling. - The Packers all depend on what happens with Rodgers and Love. As much as I'd like to fool myself, I think Rodgers is gone after this season no matter what. I think Love probably ends up being a bottom-10 starting QB in his first season, even if he does turn out to be decent-to-good eventually. If Rodgers is gone, I think Adams leaves too, and you end up with a team that's a notch or two below the Vikings in terms of roster quality and probably end up with 4-6 wins. So, if Fields develops and Rodgers leaves, I think there's a pretty clear pathway for Chicago to take the division.

surf rock posted:This is a pretty good take. Like you're saying... Exactly. Also, while I haven't been paying tons of attention to college football, from what I have seen it doesn't look like this coming crop is going to be all that. Might have one decent to good starter, if that. Of course I could and very well may be totally wrong about that but this group doesn't look as strong as some of the drafts we've had in certain recent years. That being said I haven't been following the Rodgers thing and I almost think that they will find some way to keep him especially if this season goes as well as it's looking like it might. It's just hard to imagine Rodgers actually ending up somewhere else, if he does stay that would obviously put a wrench in the works.

Bears fans are trash. Rodgers is a smug rear end in a top hat. Both things can be true. But can we pivot from dunking on the Bears to talk about how Lions fans think that getting the #1 pick is somehow a valid consolation prize? As if the Lions have ever done poo poo with their draft picks? Maybe if you want to build a "winning culture" you should focus on loving winning first. The draft is a dice roll. It's so cute that the Bears are settling in with Fields, but the Lions think they have hope and are are building something with their amateur head coach who cries one week then publicly calls out his starting QB the next week. You think it can't get worse? It can. And it will.

It's just hard to imagine Rodgers actually ending up somewhere else, if he does stay that would obviously put a wrench in the works. The one thing I'll say about the Love pick is what I said at the time: drafting him so early and getting him through multiple years of practices will mean the Packers have a *lot* of information about him after his first season as a starter. They should have seen enough at that point to know whether he's good enough to stick with. If they think he's a bust at that point, they might move on after one season and give us a second shot at finding a QB of the future faster than would've otherwise happened. Take Zach Wilson for example; the Jets are going to give him 2-3 years to prove it even if he barely improves from his current dreadful play. As blessed as the Packers have been for the past, well, 30 years, I also don't think Green Bay can really afford another stretch like the '70s and '80s as such a small-market team in the modern NFL. A few bad years would be fine, but decades of futility would open the gates for the Jerry Jones and Bob Krafts of the world to come after you.

I feel like the lions can't trade down as well as other teams, and that's seems like what they should do next year too. I'm basing that on absolutely nothing, but I don't think this draft is the one to get a QB.

What would Rodgers say to Lions fans? Would he attempt to reason with them and implore them to stop going to games? I dealt with Lions fans that seem to be blaming Anthony Lynn's playcalling for all our problems? I mean Goff is right there being total poo poo. Lions fans are the worst.

If the Lions lose to the Eagles and fall to 0-8 and MCDC is staring at 0-17. I can't imagine what he'll do. I also don't want him to lose out the year. I still like him. Patricia going 0-17 would have been glorious. He likely would have went 0-16 last year without Stafford.
