We are not seeing the performance from Caleb that would be expected of an elite QB. He has missed passes when under no pressure, either them being too low, or not well timed on timed routes in short to intermediate routes, or under or overthrown on deep routes. Goff was played well yesterday and Caleb didn’t. I agree he was let down by the team in the 3 phases, but at least I want to see him make the passes that most QBs are expected to make. I am also pissed at players who are unavailable for games due to muscle injuries. Those players and the fitness department have been poor leading into the season. I expect players to go down in the middle or towards the end of the season, but not now, unless it is an injury suffered like a joint sprain etc. I’m especially annoyed at Jaylon Johnson missing games. I think we can all agree, the strength of our roster doesn’t allow us to not have a best players on the pitch. I think it’s going to be a hard season again, and I thought we would at least be competitive this year, which doesn’t look likely.

Embarrassing that the Lions to throw on 4th down up 45 points. Shame the Bears have no pride. It’s been a hard day for me with the Bears and Man Utd my beloved teams and both, at best, are inept.

I look at this trade as similar to us signing Khalil Mack and that didn’t turn out great, i.e., multiple super bowls and affected our cap with lots of dead cap money. I am reasonably happy with our roster and as others have stated, our season depends on whether Caleb Williams is what we hope he is, if not, signing Parsons would have no impact on our chances of reaching a superbowl.

We are all Bears fans and it is healthy to have different views as long as we are respectful to each other. I would love nothing more than Caleb being the QB answer we have always wanted and I believe Stinger would have a similar view. However, at this point no one can guarantee this is our current trajectory. If Caleb becomes a franchise QB that we have craved, hopefully we can celebrate this with humility.

This season is crucial because Caleb has to perform. We could have taken Daniels at no2 and got a boat load of picks. Some on this board have indicated Caleb will be great. I didn't see it last year. The is no need to berate people who have a different opinion. They can be smug if Caleb is great or will be quiet if he's a bust. Ultimately we are all Bears fans and want best for the team. We all are emotionally invested and no one will know what would have been the best for the Bears, if we would have kept Fields and built around him, or taken either Caleb or Daniels.

I think Poles has hit on more than he's missed. We don't really know if Poles originally chose Flus, but he did choose to not go in a different direction this year. I can see why, because the trajectory from last year looked good. My main thoughts from Monday night is, do we now take Caleb out of the firing line, because I cannot see what he's going to learn or gain from playing out and getting pulverized behind this porous offensive line. Describing them as being offensive is the right word choice, because its been criminal if any of them think they have offered any level of protection to him this year. I would be happy with putting all of this years’ resources into O line because they have been shocking in the run and passing game.

I don't know why we are focusing on Edwards’ play when we have have done next to nothing on offense and they haven't done nothing to help the defense. Am I right this is the 2nd blank on the first half this year.

The first half is about as bad as it gets. How Poles has neglected or chosen poorly in the draft or free agency on the O-line is criminal. If we are going to be successful is there anyone on the O-line including the depth that has the ability to become good to elite. I think that's doubtful. I thought the O-line contributed to Fields’ poor play and I think their terrible performance this year and what Caleb has been subjected to is a confirmation. I just hope the sacks he has taken this year does not have a permanent effect on his career.

Shocking end to the game

That pass to DJ Moore was special. The Bears have shown pride in the 2nd half. If we win this, my friends in the USA are going to have a sweet Thanksgiving Day.

I only watch the Bears games so I'm a bit biased. Is there any teams that gets stiffed as much as the Bears by the officials. The horse collar tackle is another horse shit call.

Oh and happy Thanksgiving to you all in the USA. Hope you all have a great festive holiday and enjoy your turkey with all of the trimmings

Nice to see the offensive qplayers showing a bit of pride. WRs completing their routes and fighting for their QB. Hope Caleb is not hurt.

I can't see where we have a good roster. I accept that coaching is important but what about a players pride. Where is our strength? All the WRs look bang average. We have a terrible O line. Wish we still had Montgomery over all of our backs. The defense is the only area of the team in which I think you could have confidence going into next season, other than Caleb who looks like he could be something.
