How did I question your loyalty by telling you that you wouldnt like someone praising Fields? i see the person i use to argue with all the time is still there, you like to go personal. I want him to succeed so I push positive stories but to say I dont see his bad traits because Im an idiot is a little strong. he probably isnt going to be the franchise QB I may like but he has 13 games to prove me he is. Yesterday he played well and the fact you try to find bad in that says everything about you. I will be critical when deserved and praise when needed. I dont feel like getting back to the mud slinging days we use to have, but go for it.

(Great) WR room? Sharps football analysis 2023 NFL Wide Receiver & Tight End Rankings has Washington ranked 22nd and the Bears ranked 21st. There are many rankings but this is just the first that google pulled up. My point is they are a good group but not great. This may well be a loss but it will be because we screw up not because Washington is a powerhouse.

Here's a good tape on Fields. PHX probably shouldnt watch it , you wont like it.

He played bad last year but glad he got his act together this year. He's only playing because the starter got hurt . Need more games to see him.

To follow your lead, Billings is playing the NT spot well, are Dexter and Pickens better DE fits in a 3-4 scheme? Sewell actually is a better edge player in a 3-4 than SLB. Are we a Jared Verse away from a 3-4 defense already built? I doubt that logic but maybe Poles is evaluating a bad cover 2 defense and dont like what he's seeing.

Agree with that. How would this offense look wit 12 set of Kmet, Bowers , DJ and Mooney . I'll live with that.

I get the clean the house talk but truth is, no matter what happens, Poles gets next year to right the ship. He has made some mistakes but has us in a good draft position and cap space. This probably the first time I have ever seen a true rebuild with the Bears. In the past we always had a decent roster so it was ( if we just do this) we would be winning again. That never worked. Sadly this is what it looks like to be bad with developing players. The reason Flus wont be fired in season is there is no one in house capable of taking over. I think one of the main problems yesterday was bad play calls at critical times. Flus lets Gesty run the offense. Not sure who was announcing but he was spot on about running plays with Justin facing the defense. Example: On the fumble play , he turned his back and when he turned around a rusher was hitting him, didnt even have time to move his arm forward for a missed pass. Then in the 4th and 1, going for it in the shotgun was ridiculous. Let a big fast QB go over Nate Davis and gain a 1/2 yard. I had no problem with going for it, it would ice a game that 3 points wouldnt have been enough with Wilson playing well and almost 3 minutes left. We have young players that are arguably improving and its about time injured players are coming back soon. So we are getting closer to winning some games. If Fields is actually getting better we still have a chance to win 5-6 games. When they say we aren't far away , they are correct. If Jenkins ( our best) OL is back and Johnson, Jackson and Gordon is set to come back after the the 10 day mini bye , we will play a lot better.

Never paid attention to that, I was to busy betting on the bears to cover.

Losing sucks but actually had positives today. Justin DJ ,Mooney, and Kmet showed up today. Had 171 yds rushing today. OL played well

You have to give him credit when he deserves it, whether you like him or not.

The most important thing to happen today is confidence level goes up for everybody. I dont care what defense you're playing but 16/17 231 3 TDs is awesome.

Am I wrong to mention this game is not over with yet. Keep the metal to the pedal.

No energy, Fields sucks, cant play defense. Woopsy i was watching replay of last week game.

I hate to do this but Johnson comparison already in the NFL is probably David Montgomery with better vision. He doesn't have the speed of the better backs in the league.

This is a critical game for all of the above . I think we have a better roster than last year, and as Mongo said they havent got it together because of injuries. Im probably the worst poster on here for being to optimistic but that's just the way I roll. I know sometimes its not realistic but its just a better way for me to be a fan of anything. I suggested 11 wins, 8-9 would have been more realitic. Now that seems a reach. We actually have 4 games we can get well but we HAVE TO SEE IT START THIS WEEK, IF NOT A WIN AT LEAST DOWN TO THE WIRE LOSS WOULD BE ACCETABLE.

Im not sure you can call these all bad choices this early in the year. Edmunds has not been bad but more was expected. Davis had extreme personal issues that has not allowed him to be up to speed. Jones in a second year has not stood out but that is what vets make in a second contract. Every signing is not going to be the bargain bin signing. Poles said he was going to build thru the draft but you have to sign some vets in a rebuild. Yannick is an emergency signing late that is just getting up to speed. History says he will be okay. Walker performs best as a second pass rusher and still has time to get to his value as a acquisition. The key to Poles signing free agents is that he doesnt sign long term cap problem vets. the only one that falls in that category right now is Edmunds and he is not a bust. What Poles has done is acquire draft capital and a great cap situation going into his 2nd year of a rebuild, he should be allowed to get to the third year for that alone. Yes he has 2 glaring mistakes so far, Claypool and V Jones, is there any Im missing?

If they want to make a statement they need to run the ball well and that is a lot of RJ and Herbert.

No way they bring in a new coach, cant remember that working out. It has to be within or Flus stays.

If we are not in this game, i think it indicates that Flus has lost the team and the season will be lost. If fired in midseason who takes over? It has to be in house, they are not bringing new in. Hoke seems the most logical because of experience. Dont think Getsy would get it.

I think they win but it's going to be contested. We're not good enough yet to have an easy game. We will get better as the year goes on not how many wins that turns into.

Actually both can be true at the same time.

Everything is contributing to being bad, Fields, coaching, OL, WRs, injuries, and a bad defense. If all of them improve 20% we might be in ball games instead of getting blown out. In the next 4 games we need to go 3-1 or 4-0, I dont think 2-2 does us any good on our long range goals.

I wonder if anyone has ever had 2 top 5 picks before? We are not in tank mold yet but how we play going into the next 4 games will determine that.

Here is Darnell Wright in every pass play at KC He gave up 1 sack and played well. He is going to be an all rookie and future pro bowler. He was not a mistake being our first pick.

Our next 4 games are Denver-Washington-Minnesota- Las Vegas. What happens to the shit storm if we go 4-0 or 3-1? We know if we dont win any games or go 1-3 we just continue the same gloom and doom. BUT what if
