Fields is a clown. At this point, he is just trying to save face. How do you even defend 99 passing yards with a huge chunk coming in garbage time. He needs to be benched, sit, watch, and study. He clearly has no clue what he is doing. He has 676 passing attempts and 104 sacks, so he's had over 800 drop backs. That is a big enough sample size to know he sucks. To confirm, watch the tape. There are receivers open on almost every play, yet he is scared to throw the ball. His closest comp was Gabbert, now he is worse than him. The last comp is JaMarcus Russell. So he is JaMarcus Gabbert and that is how I will refer to him from now on.

Josh Dobbs joined the Cardinals a week before the season and just beat the Cowboys passing for 189 yds and a TD and ran for 55. Fields had 99 yards passing and most came in garbage time.

TD to Moore after a 1 handed grab on the sidelines, but he took a shot to the back and looks like he might have gotten hurt. 41-10 Chiefs. Fields with 99 yards passing.

6 minutes left, Fields with 42 passing yards and an INT. He just ain't it.

Sanborn with a pick on Gabbert. Fields still about to be 5-23 breaking a tie with Gabbert at 5-22.

Gabbert is in. He is Fields. Who will win, they are exactly the same.

That had to be one of the worst halfs considering the hype, and the "progression" and "improvement". You have to fire someone, bench some players, something. You can't just keep allowing this to happen.

Definitely a chance they at least get 60.

I will have to check on the other numbers, but 24-0 so far. Herbert lost the fumble, Fields threw 1 INT.

Fire everyone, what more do we need to see? This is so embarrassing.

This team is so bad. It is hard to watch. Let's play soft zone against Mahomes so every receiver is open.

So far, 1 quarter into the 3rd game, looks exactly the same as every other quarter or game to me. I still do not see the progress.

The Bears literally cannot stop anyone on 3rd down. Same today. Good on 1st and 2nd for the most part and then on 3rd, when you know they are passing, you shit the bed?

Yeah, things like this just show how bad this organization is from top to bottom. So if there was a forensics vehicle at Halas Hall, it may have not been "raided" but any law enforcement visit would be close enough. So that dude who tweeted it originally was more accurate that not.

Fields sacked, ugh, Jones got by Wright way too quick, but Fields ran into the sack.

Ref-aided TD for KC, 7-0.

And of course, the Bears get a personal foul on a hit by Stevenson AND he is down. Insult to injury.

Kelce now left wide open for 2 easy receptions. I have no clue what the defense is doing.

Bears first drive, one good throw to Claypool, then they run twice and Carter literally gets pushed back into Fields for a near sack. Bears punt.

The Bears defense just stopped KC from scoring and made them punt, wow. Impressive start by the defense, and that was after a bad 3rd down where they decided to leave Kelce wide open. So 1 bad play, otherwise every other play was good.

Notes from Jeremy Fowler: Interesting last comment. So at least it looks like they are putting in extra effort.

Yeah, if he was going to be demoted, then said, you know what, f'it, if I can't call plays, then I don't want to be here. Like you said, went home for a week to discuss with family, then came back and resigned. If all of that was a shock to the rest of the staff and they feel jaded, then it could fit. Now if any of the raid rumors are true, the demote > resign scenario would not make sense. However, that raid stuff seems like it could be total BS. If it was and people were putting that out there as fact (sources telling me), I would sue the hell out of them for libel. One last scenario, is there any connection between Mel Tucker and Alan Williams? The timing of the allegations against Tucker and Williams taking a leave of absence was very closely aligned. Could be a complete coincidence, but a former Bears Coordinator and current one in the news the same week.

The Indy player connection is an interesting data point.

Listen, I want them to win, on paper it looks like things are headed in the right direction, but there has been nothing on the field to suggest the team is any better now than it was in Nagy's last season. Under the new GM and HC, the Bears are 3-16, and will more than likely be 3-17 with 13 straight losses. The roster has been turned over, so we should start seeing the results. First two games, sure, call them preseason games, but now into Week 3, with all those live reps and several weeks of prep, the players should be in a groove and clicking. If they look bad against KC again, then I don't know if they can turn things around. Again, even in a loss, just look better, be competitive. Claypool has all the physical tools to dominate, but he plays soft for some reason. There are two WRs with his physical numbers, Megatron and Claypool. He has to unlock that somehow.

I think Poles is better than Pace, and I said he was trending towards Pace. I was referring to guys that don't stick to BPA. If you look back at all the picks, which the team has full control over, Gordon and Brisker would not have been the first 2 picks if you were going BPA. Velus absolutely would not have been a 3rd rounder, 5th, ok, but 3rd was a reach and ultimately a wasted pick. This year, the trade was a no-brainer if you didn't like the QBs. CAR didn't give up Burns or a 3rd first for a pretty big jump to the 1st overall pick. Getting Moore, an extra 1st and an extra 2nd was an easy trade. Then with a chance to draft Carter, who was arguably the #1 talent in the draft, you move down one stop to take a RT. Wright is solid and I like the pick, but don't love it. Then he goes CB, DL, DL with the next 3. So in Poles first 2 drafts his top 6 guys were Gordon, Brisker, Velus, Wright, Stevenson, Dexter, Pickens Instead of Brisker/Gordon, there were options like Pickens - WR, Ingram - G, Fortner - G, Petit-Frere - OT, then in the 3rd, instead of Velus, you could've picked Abraham - OL, Jones - CB, or Parham - OL. 5 OL options, all were there, but he went DB, DB, KR. Something like Pickens, Abraham, Jones would've been a great top 3 (WR, OL, CB) covered. This is not revisionist history, these guys were on the board and highly rated. Then in 2023, there was the trade for Moore, which was fine, but then if he drafted at least one OL in 2022, maybe he feels better going with Carter this year. Then after Carter, depending on if you addressed WR in 2022, you could go with Marvin Mims, Rashee Rice, or John Michael Schmitz (was drafted after Stevenson and Dexter) who most of us wanted. For the DL, I would've been happier with Carter vs Dexter/Pickens, on the OLine, JMS + any OL listed in 2022 would be better than Wright alone. Getting Pickens or one of the 2023 WRs would be better than Velus. So Carter, JMS, Rice or Mims, and Puka Nacua. Can you imagine a WR Room with Moore, Pickens, Nacua, Mooney, and Rice? Outside of Nacua, all the other picks were there when the Bears drafted. Again, it's apple to oranges at this point. You can't change anything but when assessing a GMs performance, you have to look back and see what the baseline would've been.
