It’s too big for him I actually wanted them to go for it instead of kicking the FG because I knew this defense wasn't gonna stop a cold, but to try to get them to jump, waste a TO, and then still try to go for it was so stupid. Not to mention the terrible play call. I'm not sure how Getsy keeps getting these 3rd/4th and short situations so wrong. You have one of the best rushing QBs in the league and you constantly run out of shotgun or have your TE try to sneak it. It's the dumbest s%*#. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, if you are gonna go for it don’t think about it for two minutes then go for it. Just line up with your best play and run it, and that play should feature one of the best running QBs in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The defense is so bad and that’s his calling card, that’s the tough thing for me. He cannot get them off the field after 3rd down for two years now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almagest Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Man, what a complete team failure. They should've never been in that situation but Fields blew that last drive and I'm 100% out on him now. The Bears cleared the way for him to pass them to victory against the worst defense in the NFL and he couldn't do it. I was nervous the good stats against the Broncos was just how bad they were and I was right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a loser. Not blaming the coaching all either, it’s on Fields, but I think if he had more experience with GW drives, maybe the end of the game and the Tampa games look different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think he's not that good - maybe a system that leverages his strengths more would help but he holds the ball SO DAMN LONG when the pressure is on.

I thought he did well against pressure in the first half. Getsy also moved him outside the pocket quite a bit and he actually looked good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scs787 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Man, I was starting to believe for a minute. Not believe that they were playoff caliber, but believe they were not all that bad. I know Denvers D is the hottest of all garbage, but Justin was still making plays he needed to start making regardless of how bad their D is. Made a few tight coverage throws which we haven't really seen much of and he was throwing in the face of some pressure. Regardless of how bad their D is, the pressure and tight coverage on some of those throws was encouraging. Those last 2 turnovers though and just the overall loss totally killed my good vibes though.

It was a complete team effort. What I'm saying is I think that even with a competent team and coaching staff he won't be enough to get them playoff wins.

MexSoxFan#1 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Fields overall played really well. That fumble that Denver took for the TD is kind of hard to pin on him, as soon as he turned around, there was a defender in his grill so I'm giving him a pass on that one. The INT was apparently a miscommunication, according to Kmet...and yes, Fields still holds on to the ball way to long, he needs to make decisions quicker. I pin this loss more on the HC than anyone else, his defense still can't stop anyone when it matters, and that going for it instead of kicking the FG was dumb and even dumber was the play call on 4th down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 2 hours ago, chw42 said: Denver figured something out after that 4th TD. Fields didn't get many open looks in the last few drives. How could he - they literally didn’t let him do much other than hand it off. Fields played excellent today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it happens, they probably can’t pass on Harrison Jr, but they need an edge rush SO badly. And I don’t know how they find a real impact DE without using a 1st rounder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or they could actually draft both QBs and hope that one of them work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
