DABEARSDABOMB

He is making it easy on the decision makers which is what I want (I prefer he made it easy and showed he was something though). But I don’t want to drag this out - find out if he is the guy or not. So far he looks like the exact same player as last year - which tells it all cause he was statically awful last year and had been very much the same this year. Literally looks scared - indecisive / unable to read and react and play with speed and take the play there. If somehow one of these games things slow down - great - they may have their guy - but if they don’t than they are back looking for a qb.

I am more upset at Fields than the play calling but I want to see a huge 2nd half from the offense. No excuses just put up.

Pickens looks the part and he is doing it as the 3rd option on a team with Trubisky. Ignoring Gordon as DB was a need - I still say I would have taken the wideout. That said I wanted Amari Cooper in a trade and that would have been a huge difference and at an extremely fair price (since he was acquired right before the wideout market blew up). None of that is revisionist history either - cause I said it than and it still irks me fuse Fields offense looks a lot different with that one move in locking up Amari and quite frankly it wouldn’t have prevented anything else the Bears did this offseason (including Gordon).

Really am rooting for him.

If Fields can’t make plays in the pocket - it is all a moot point anyway. He has to be able to feed the pocket and make more plays / prevent the negative play.

Boy would it be awesome if they somehow won!

There were parts of the Niners game where I said if I don't see clear improvements of quickness of decision making over first half of the season - than we might have our answer on Fields. I truly think that is going to be the thing we need to watch - how quickly is he getting the ball out of his hands / processing the field. Thankfully there were some flash plays in 2H and a few that involved some quicker decision making - but I'll be honest - I saw a lot of really really bad out of Fields in game one. Small sample size - and new system - so I'm not jumping to conclusions, but that 1H was about as terrible of a QB performance as you can possibly see.

I hope game 1 was just a tease - cause for as few snaps as he played he was all over the place. If they truly found a guy in him on the D - oh man that would be sweet. Will also be curious to see how he does as he (hopefully) earns more reps and also how he adjusts when the league gets a bit more film on him as well. Loved the motor and way he played though. One thing that really excites me is - he has all the measureables - his weakness was not having played the position - not that he was slow or had short arms or any of that nonsense.

I hope you are right and Fields ends up better than Herbert cause Herbert is an absolute stud.

Let’s do this - let’s go bears!!!

Does anyone know - do the Bears post this positions like online. If they do - I decided I'm going to apply for the role. I figure I can be the next Phillips - I'm a CPA too, so why not.

Robinson never really good separation - which is why I never thought he was worth the money. Pace misread a lot of things and should have traded Robinson a year ago when they both realized the difference in value each side had. They could have sold high on Arob. With that said - I'm not jumping to conclusions over Arob just yet as I still think he is a solid receiver (who has always relied on his pure skill vs. elite or even good athleticism) - but with his lack of separation - you can't pay him $20M a year.

I hope you are right - and this is where - if Fields takes a big step forward, the team could surprise. With that said - I think they are still just a year too early and still are pretty devoid of splash/blue chippers.

I think you are delusional on WR - Deebo is significantly better than Mooney; Aiyuk is way better than anything else we have too. I won't comment on there oline vs. our oline - but we have a lot of unproven so I would say they are better (they did a nice job protecting Jimmy G). And there Dline is not a push to the Bears. They have a top 3 dl and in general a top 5 defense so tehy are much better than the Bears. Bottom line - the only area I would give the bears much of a nod over the Niners is as at QB. The niners are a super bowl team, sans the uncertainty at QB. The Bears are not. QB can push things over and maybe our young players ascend super fast - but on paper it isn't even close.

It has taken years to get to this point - but I pretty much see the same people on Sundays at my kids games these days - and I just blurt out - don't even think about it before saying hello. I also make sure to not wear any Bear gear until I'm at home on Sunday - so one one mistakenly sees me and shakes there head in solidarity (as in - boy did that game suck) or the high five (which always is a bit better - cause at least I know they won). My wife is usually the one who will spoil it - cause she can't not see - and will than make me nervous the whole game though. But nothing I can do about that - cause the upside is - she cares about the Bears

It is quite peaceful haha.

Never - I will turn my phone off so I get zero updates. So as far as I'm concerned, I'm watching live cause I have no idea what is happening (its really the only way I can watch and get the same experience as if I were watching live).

Very excited - even more so because my kids little league kicks back up this Sunday and I have Sunday Ticket stream, which is hard to do when the games conflict. So I know Sunday is nationally televised in my area so can do the nice record, turn off my phone - enjoy all the kids activities and than we can all sit down and relax and watch the game later in the day on our own time (and hopefully will find the game plenty entertaining and enjoyable :)).

Pretty big news.

Test

That makes a lot more sense.

There will be another slight outage sometime today (not expected to be more than 30 minutes) and than likely another small outage on Saturday. This is for small clean-up stuff being done. Hopefully nothing takes longer than that - but there is always risk that it does.

Kind of surprised there - are they really going to carry Harry when he isn't able to play.

What theme are you using? I don't see it on the theme I am using. I'm just using the default.

Let’s hope he has a lot of 3 TD 0 pick halves in his future
