You do not pass on Caleb loving Williams. I had Fields as my number 2 QB that year after Laurence, but there was a pretty decent drop off between them, obviously this year can change things but uh Caleb Williams is a Trevor Laurence or maybe more tier prospect.

They just traded down to take a tackle who looked like poo poo and a receiver they targeted twice all game.

I think the Bears should just trade their beloved veteran QB to a desperate contender and get back multiple first rounders and the boat anchor QB they're desperate to get rid of, but actually that boat anchor is secretly still really good. It's really easy, just do that.

It especially helps if the boatanchor QB had his confidence shattered by his former coach and his new team coach steps in and builds his confidence brick by brick

You take Williams and you have him hold a clip board until you rebuild the team. Like love and Rodgers. And if drafting Williams pisses off Fields and he turns in an MVP year to shove it in our faces, so be it

How many seconds, on average, did Fields have to throw? Watching it live, I felt like he had plenty of time to throw but that he was actually just not very good at throwing it. Because he's bad.

Reminder that the Bears had $100 million in cap space to improve their line this offseason and used it on linebackers instead.

The Packers need the Bears to be good because the only way they can make it to the Super Bowl is by facing them in the postseason.

Still impressive the bears had 100 million dollars in cap space this off-season and their defense is still poo poo and their offensive line is still poo poo. It'd take a miracle for them to not want to take one of the top 2 at this point. Even if fields is mediocre -- which would literally be him being twice as good throwing the ball as he has ever been -- feels like a josh Rosen situation. Just move on. adaz fucked around with this message at 05:16 on Sep 11, 2023 |

How about them Vikings? Probably not this bad, but certain not a good team. it will be interesting to see if JJ wants out after this year.

SirPablo posted:I'm not worried about the Vikings. Teams can look miles different from Week 1 to Week 6. JJ is still good, JA has huge potential, TJ remains integral, the O-line between the tackles remains trash. Ingram found a new way to gently caress up. The Defense played decently in the first half, then proceeded to let Baker Mayfield go wild. The secondary is mostly a bunch of nobodies, hopefully they can gradually improve and gel the next few weeks. The defense looked like a real NFL defense rather than the "stay ten yards from any receiver and hope we get lucky" scheme of last year. Philly and SF will probably trash the team but there's opportunity for improvement, at least on defense as the year develops. Interior O line is Chicago bad right now and I'm wondering what the plan is to fix it.

I think that was the biggest frustration. This could have been the exact same team they trotted out early season last year (before they started designing runs for fields) and I wouldn't have been able to tell by their play. I think it's entirely on the coaching - not just play calls, but the lack of any cohesiveness anywhere. The offensive line didn't even seem capable of all firing off the ball at once. It's not that they didn't solve all their problems, it looked like they actually got worse despite lovie bringing them the #1 overall pick. The only thing they did right was not take Bryce young because he'd already be crippled behind that line/play calling. trevorreznik fucked around with this message at 05:30 on Sep 11, 2023 |

DJ Moore looked good! (2) targets. Honestly I don't know if you could script a worse game for the Bears. Like it's game 1 of a very long season and all. I also struggle to understand the resource allocation. You have a (maybe) frnachise QB. You know you need to evaluate him and he had the worst offensive line this side of David Carr. Historically bad. You also know if he sucks your next qb sould have a good line! #1 pick and 100 million dollars and you get *this*? I know some of it is injuries, sure, but injuries always happen and the depth is this bad?? The lack of development this bad? It's just... I don't get it. I don't get the resource allocation. What do you think that #2 for chase claypool would've fetched? I get they drafted Darnell in the 1st round but shouldn't you jsut carpet bomb the o-line that point if you knew you were that thin instead of spending the next 3 on prospect defense picks? adaz fucked around with this message at 05:51 on Sep 11, 2023 |

It would have been nice if they coulda gotten the ball to DJ more than twice. No time to throw? Get dj on slants. Just get the ball into the playmakers hands.

If your best offensive lineman being injured causes your oline to play like the 2002 Houston Texans I wouldn't say you had a good plan nor would it likely be your _only_ problem

Moore is a big upgrade at receiver, but that seems to be the only position you could say has improved much. And he doesn't seem to be a fit for whatever the gently caress Getsy wants to do on offense. The team has some more depth and is younger, but there is a decent chance they'll be losing two of their best players in Mooney and Johnson this offseason. Feels like with a $100 million in cap space and a lot of picks you should be in a better position. edit: I guess they traded for a punt returner who can catch punts so that is an area of improvement too.

The bears for some reason have decent players except their two lines are awful, turns out the offensive and defensive lines are important, in the game of football. Not the way I would have done it, personally, but I expected the bears to be trash this year and I'm pretty sure they will never beat the packers ever for the rest of my life.

Fields throws pretty badly both when he has time and when he doesn’t, he just obviously usually doesn’t. Even in the 4th with the Packers playing off guys he still wasn’t hitting guys in stride. Well I guess he hit Mooney in stride right into getting blown up.

now i may be crazy since the bears and giants just poo poo themselves live on tv but what is the possibility the Vikings can do the impossible and finally get the number 1 pick in next years draft. Am I dreaming too high or can we find a way to lose all our 1 score games and then also lose the games we get blown out in?

The Cardinals are one of the leagues more obvious tank jobs in recent years and a number of other teams in Week 1 absolutely stunk. Some of those will come good, some of those are rookie QB situations who might come good, but it's possible some of those teams are still just bad. Trevor Lawrence alone wasn't enough to stop the Jags picking #1 overall after his rookie season, and I think it's very possible both the Panthers and Texans are still cheeks this year. Indy are going to get Richardson killed so there's that, too. This might be a hot take after such a lol, lmao performance, but I think the Bears will play themselves out of contention for either of the top QB's. I still think they have a 5 win floor.

No gaurantee they dont gently caress it up and lose to them when we play the panthers tho.
