Mims fumbles the kickoff, gets crushed at the 4 yd line. Broncos can't move the ball, Stroman makes a great open field tackle on a screen to force 4th down. Short Punt, Bears start in Broncos territory. This is where the Bears have to capitalize, 7 pts is needed here. Take advantage of the field position when you have it.

Look at the YPC, Roschon is at least a yard better. Monty had 2 yards on 8 rushes, and 21 of his rushes were 3 yards or less, but because he had 3 TDs everyone is saying how amazing he is. On any of his big runs, there were huge holes where he wasn't touched for 8 yards. Monty is good for squeezing out a half of a yard extra on a run where he was too slow to get thru the hole, thus gaining back the half yard he lost.

Back to Fields. My question now is, what makes the Bears keep Fields? At this point he would have to have a Josh Allen or Jalen Hurts type season for the remainder of the year for them to keep him and draft around him next year. There is no way they can pass on Caleb Williams if Fields is mediocre or just average this year. Right now he has played like one of the worst QBs in the league, so just getting to average may seem like a huge jump, but I think the only thing that would stop the Bears from drafting a QB is if Fields looks like the guy with those huge explosive runs who can also pass for 250+ yards every game consistently. Defenses needs to be on their heels, not look like they are the offense. If he can't do that, I feel like he is gone. So something like 6 wins or less and he is gone, 7-9 wins depends on if he looks elite, and 10+ he is probably safe. So things do not look good for Fields in most cases as College QBs cook all over the place.

Fields WR Corps may have been one of the best ever with Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson, Jaxson Smith-Njigba, and Jameson Williams all on the team at the same time in 2020. USC has some decent WRs, but not like that. I have started to watch some older games on Williams and he is totally different QB than Fields. Both QBs had some easy throws or sometimes a ton of time in the pocket. However, Williams has a lot more throwing guys open and throwing before the guy is open plays. Fields has very few of those. Outside of the deep balls, where Fields is probably better, Fields almost has no intermediate game and very little in the middle of the field. You are down on Williams because he lost a bowl game where he threw for 462 yards and 5 TDs, with 1 INT? Those are some high standards. The problem now is the timeline, this team is not a year or two away, so Fields rookie contract in its 3rd year is not in line with the rebuild peak (probably 2026). Getting a QB next year after you have built enough key positions thru the draft is more conducive to a long term plan.

Claypool a healthy scratch, ESB playing on his birthday. Bears by 20! The Bears have not won a game since they traded for Claypool, coincidence or not? If they win today without him, they need to look for a trading partner and get that toxic guy out of the locker room. So this guy was clueless last year, was doing fashion shows in the offseason, actually looked solid in practices, then had one of the weakest games you will ever see in Week 1, followed it up with a TD in TB, then disappeared again in KC. This dude has god gifted physical traits to dominate as a WR in the NFL, yet he plays soooo weak. It's time to cut sling and move on from this clown.
