Also, Kmet's progression from soft and awful to a legitimately good TE (and longsnapper) is really nice to see. Heard Caleb postgame, that ball was supposed to be at the back of the pylon, just under threw it. Bad ball, it happens, but just bad execution by him, in an otherwise great day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESPN 1000 was also talking about how the OL has gelled together since the team has basically kicked Nate Davis to the curb with a BS “soft tissue” injury. “Soft” is right.

They clearly needed a few weeks to get going, and playing the Texans in Week 2 didn’t help. They have been fortunate to have a really soft schedule the last 3 weeks, and they need to go 3-1 in their next 4 honestly if they want to be a playoff team. But they are doing exactly what you should be doing to bad teams, and that’s stepping on their neck. Caleb’s last two weeks have been better than anything Fields did in 3 years here. He’s the real deal, they just have to get this OLine bolstered with some more talent, and hopefully the coaching staff can keep up. They still worry me, but there are a lot of good pieces here.

Now the bye week and what should be a really good battle between two outstanding rookie qbs. Please let this be just the beginning of a super magical run with the Bears!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you see some of the throws he is executing, you know he will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted October 14 Share Posted October 14 I need to save this post: ”there is nothing you will learn about the nfl in week 1”. Really impressed by Waldron too. With the exception of the start of a game, he has made huge adjustments to suit the team, and the players have clearly grown in the system too. Bad defenses the last few weeks but that can be helpful to get timing right and confidence up. Scared to play Minnesota tho, won’t be surprised if Caleb had a really big clunker there, and it’s fine if he does. The north is so good though I’m not sure playoffs is gonna be possible.

Harry Chappas Posted October 14 Share Posted October 14 The first quarter on both sides of the ball is odd compared to the other three quarters. O line seems to be holding its own but Minnesota is going to be something as Flores is amazing and creating havoc. I'm not concerned with the playoffs as it's just nice to have a competent QB. The NFC Norris could have the 4 best teams in the NFC by the end of the year. Fields is doing Fields things in Pittsburgh which is nice for him but shows that he is what he is.

Game manager who can use his legs as a pressure relief valve. Not a difference maker but still quite useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And given that Fields hasn't been great but the Steelers have still been winning, you have to think that went into the decision by Pittsburgh. If Fields isn't giving them great production but the team can still be successful, why not see if Russ can do the same, and save them having to give up a 4th?

I looked up Spotrac and Adams deal actually is pretty clean, the per year is heavy but very little cap mess. Basically a 2/70M deal https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/14463/davante-adams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted October 20 Share Posted October 20 Packers beat the Texans on last second FG. Lions beat the Vikings on FG and only 15 seconds left. Lions officially in 1st place. Bears officially in last cuz of bye week at 4-2.... LOL this division man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSox2023 Posted October 21 Share Posted October 21 Well, Justin Fields has lost his starting job for sure after that game by Russell Wilson. So Wilson either needs to perform poorly or miss time for Fields to be the starter again so the Bears get a 4th round pick for the Fields trade rather than a 6th.
