  1. I know we are disappointing that Fields has not turned into a star, but we don’t know the actual play that has been called. Do we know that Moore is the first option in his progression, he should be, however Getsy may want to be cute thinking he is the greatest offensive mind in the league. 
     

    I hated the screen pass and why didn’t we take a play out of the Bucs playbook with Moore faking to go deep and then coming back to a ball that Fields has already let go. 
     

    I don’t know if we struggled yesterday having Mooney leave the game. I would like the offense to pass further down the field and only use screens occasionally at least until Davis and Jenkins return to be active. 

  2. I turned it off after Fields fumbled. Here are my thoughts. 
     

    1) The middle of the oline is terrible so we need to move away from being run heavy. 
    2) Jackson is useless and should be cut but can’t because of his ridiculous salary. 
    3) We cannot rush 4 because we will be killed. 
    4) It’s ridiculous trading for Moore and Claypole and not using them. Same with giving Kmet a new contract. 
    5) Need to have Fields throwing deeper throws and establish if he can be a top 10 QB. If not use him as a RB and go in a different direction. 
     

    Finally please I cannot stand another season like last year. Yesterday was really hard and if we weren’t stupid we could have changed the narrative with Green Bay. I still cannot comprehend why we don’t play starters in the preseason. Our players need the reps and what difference does it make if we get injuries. It cannot be worse than last year or yesterday. 

     

  3. Our view of the draft picks is blurred by the poor results of Emery and Pace. I hope that Poles is an antithesis of them and fingers crossed his success rate will enable the Bears to build strong rosters. I’m happy with taking the best player available and not reaching. 
     

    Other than picking quality players my biggest hope is to not lose any draft capital next year. I’m happy that we took Fields last year and it looks a good and great pick considering this years quarterback crop but we need to build through the draft and losing picks through moving up in the draft and trading for players causes difficulty.
     

    I struggle with how compensatory draft picks are awarded. I Poles knows how to utilise this area of the draft and we start getting some. Maybe this is due to our poor drafting but the successful teams seem to get 2 to 3 picks extra picks annually which doesn’t seem fair.
