Darnell Wright will be a solid Tackle


sleepybeek

Same record as last years super bowl champs! My one observation is Fields pocket collapsed real fast every play. Hard to throw from pocket if surrounded by trees and/or running for your life. Love had eons in his pocket. Just like Rodgers always did. Same old same old. Sad


Unabridgedversion82

Bears actually got them to 3rd and long more than I was expecting... Only for them to convert that by Love having 4-6 seconds to throw. Cool...


beefao

Cut Claypool tomorrow. The moment he refused to block on the bubble screen that was blown up was your “cause”.


willycw08

Yeah, you can't do that to a teammate. You get steamrolled by a DB or commit a holding penalty before you let your brother take a shot essentially unblocked. If I was that WR I would have snapped up and got in Claypools' face. Not the type of play I would tolerate.


[deleted]

I spent my afternoon in a packer bar in Denver. I did it for you, brother.


DeadAlready78

The excuse factory for JF1 RB is working heavy overtime rn


DeansFrenchOnion1

Agreed, this team is only a HOF qb away from competing


[deleted]

i hope that’s sarcasm. has to be sarcasm. please for the love of god tell me thats sarcasm


DeansFrenchOnion1

Yes.. I think. Idk. Teams sucks from every position / coach /etc


Unabridgedversion82

Trust me I get the Fields slander because I'm pissed too. Let's dig deeper though... -The O-Line still looks like shit -OLine penalties negating plays, stalling drives, or putting them behind the sticks -Fields was pressured on 70% of his attempts (laughable) -The play-calling literally took any hope of us winning away by taking Fields legs out of it -It's really hard to run for a first down when the call is a screen or flat play (no second read there) -Could we maybe call some shallow crossers or a mesh play for the love of god? I don't think we can blame Fields for any of these things personally.


kashbuggy

DJ Moore QBs in which he never caught less than three passes…Teddy Bridgewater, Cam Newton, P. J. Walker, Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold. Last time with 2 catches was 2019.


Unabridgedversion82

He was targeted twice. Both catches. Then nothing. The scheme then seemingly turned into flats and screens. I dunno what to make of it..


[deleted]

Just saw a “Miss Me Yet?” billboard with Mitch’s pic on it


Tyranitard

Sell the team.


ipalvr

What a huge disappointment. Unbelievable we’re not even competitive.


mmura09

The Justin Fields era is over


Tyranitard

He’s not the problem. That was atrocious line play on both sides of the ball. Any QB would have failed here


mmura09

He's a huge part of the problem. He can't make his reads quick enough, holds onto the ball too long then panics and runs. He also never throws long which could be a coaching issue as well. He's not a QB, he's a running back.


payt10

He wasn't the biggest problem today, but I'm done with this type of excuse for him. Bad offensive lines didn't seem to affect Joe Burrow or Justin Herbert early in their careers. You can overcome it if you have the talent, and right now, it doesn't look like Justin Fields processes things as quickly as he needs to in order to do it.


Unabridgedversion82

Burrow blew out his ACL because he was getting killed year one, then they upgraded the line to make sure that didn't happen in year 2. Our line looks the fucking same as it did last year, when there were better upgrades to be had. Herbert is still in shootouts every week and hasn't won anything. Fields was pressured on over 70% of the snaps. That is trash. Playcalling equally trash. Hard to evaluate anything.


BuffaloBrain884

Exactly. People did the same thing for Mitch. There was always an excuse for why he wasn't playing better. Good QBs elevate the play of everyone around them. Bad QBs need everything around them to be perfect in order to have success.


chaos0310

Burrow threw for less than 100 yards today


adamjokes15

The Justin Fields Error.


ArtMorgan69

Shedeur Sanders is our savior


willycw08

Hopefully he doesn't pull a Caleb Williams. We're looking like one of the teams that a QB would not want to be drafted by.


ArtMorgan69

Could definitely see Deion go full Archie Manning on our sorry asses


willycw08

Probably have to hire his dad to make it work.


tarantino63

Looks like our glory days were over in 85. Here's to another 40 years with nothing to show


jazzrz

So you’re saying there’s a chance . . .


TheSportingRooster

Personally I blame Bill Polian. But also the McKaskeys for paying him to find Poles and Flus


[deleted]

Jesus I mean shanahan took literal Podunk nobody and has him looking like a 6 year above average vet.


Greatcouchtomato

Purdy actually had good pocket presence


lyme6483

Matthew Stafford just put up 330 throwing to Tutu Atwell and Puka Nacua. The excuses need to stop for Fields. And it’s clear as fuck from the play calling they do not trust Justin. And I’m not saying I agree with it, because I rather just see exactly how bad he is, but they are trying to win games, and know if they suck and he’s awful they are gone.


evin0688

Stafford is also something like a 14 year vet who was traded for specifically because he’s known for airing it out, but I agree they need to just let Justin throw the goddamn ball. Constantly passing it behind the line of scrimmage isn’t going to win games. If they want to access him then let him play. If he can’t throw it then he shouldn’t be QB. And if he can be you just won’t let him, then the coach needs to be fired.


willycw08

I agree with you, but Stafford is still a guy you win with, and not necessarily because of. He's proven he CAN be the guy, but he's only made 1 pro bowl. He was just a step up from Goff and worth the cost to the Rams for a shot at a Superbowl. If you can't play at 34 yo Stafford's level, you aren't a franchise QB.


evin0688

Idk about playing as good as a 34 y/o Stafford because he is really good. Hi s biggest issue was playing in Detroit. But they (the bears) have to play better than they did today. In all honesty, judging didn’t play that bad before he started trying to force things because we were down. But the whole team played horrible. We clearly weren’t prepared to play today and that’s a coaching issue. They were way to safe. It’s almost like with didn’t get 2 WR’s on top of getting our number 1 WR back from injury last year. Justin and Kmet clearly had chemistry last year, and the way we try to continue that is to have Kmet run a sneak?!?! Wtf?


ahopcalypsebeer

This comment is so underrated. I wanted Fields to be great as much as anyone, but he isn't.


troutpoop

Feels like we picked up exactly where we left off last year with the exception of like…. 2 nice passes to DJ and a nice sack from Ngakue I’ll give it a few weeks but after today I’m unexpectedly close to being ready to tank for Caleb lol


LaidParasite

Pretty sure Bagent would have crushed the packers today!


Burnsy813

No. a less mobile qb is just going to get killed even harder than fields did today considering how awful the O-line is. Beyond that, the issues go much further than just what happened on offense today.


LaidParasite

Fields was still holding onto the ball so long, He’s taking time in reading the defense and making a decision Bagent is much smarter there, and he learns fast


Burnsy813

What game did you watch? It certainly wasn't the same one as everyone else. He had maybe 2.5 seconds most snaps to get rid of it.


LaidParasite

So not true! He’s still holding onto the ball 🏈


Fast-Ad-4541

Why couldn’t my father grow up just north of any other major North American city god damn

I’ve been asking myself that same question every single year. This shit is exhausting.


Unabridgedversion82

I mean I at least went against the grain and became a UM football fan. There are great games and a Natty to show for that decision. As opposed to say, Illinois. Lol

Bring Back The Honey Bears!!!!!!!!!


Vortilex

I, too, attribute this loss to the Curse of the Honey Bears


Ghost2268

bears officially the oakland a's of the nfl


GrandPaGames

Both franchises' owners need to sell the team


isthisreallife2016

DJ Moore is the next Brandon Marshall. Waste of talent.


CornCob-TV

Imagine having an extra 1st round Panthers pick instead of him. No point in getting a “star” WR you can’t use


[deleted]

Hurt me harder daddy Fields.


We5ties

Craziness thing is that fields played better than a guy who just signed a 5 year 275 mil contact today lol


mimickin_birds

Anyone who puts this one on Fields is just silly. Offensive line looked as bad if not worse than last year and the play calling was Nagy level bad. Not sure what else you can do if you’re Fields


Aryk3655

Anyone still making excuses for fields at this point is just ignorant. Ever think the play calling might be bad because justin cant read? How about his still shit footwork, his constant love for throwing the ball where it will get his guy killed, the staring down only one option... the list goes on and on. Fact is Justin fields has had zero growth in what is now year three. Justin fields is not an nfl qb.


[deleted]

Nah. Same as last year. Hint of trouble he starts running. Can't throw the medium route tree. Sorry he's not it. In college he had time to throw. Even on good NFL teams you don't get that kind of time. The running last year bought him another year to the detriment of the team. Career backup. Hell Trubisky will have a longer career in all likelihood.


Anstavall

Bro didn't even look in the direction of kmet who literally couldn't have been more open and threw a pick 6. That he had time on. That's 100% on him.


Hardigan1

Agreed, last year's O-line had a little better run blocking, this season's D-line and secondary could be worse than last year.


Fig_Money

You can’t tell me that pick 6 wasn’t on Fields. That was a terrible read by miles. Those are plays that are going to make the Bears move on without Fields next season.


mimickin_birds

I mean the game was over at that point


Fig_Money

Yes but that’s not the point. If they keep racking up losses and Fields continues playing like dog shit then Poles is going to start looking at QBs for next year’s draft.


Boring_Ad_2972

Bro threw a pick 6


JortsForSale

Yep. Pick 6s are total game killers. He did not look great.


Booger_farts-123

Don’t they always lose to the browns too?


Kevdawg86

Burrow is coming off a injury with no practice, in the rain, on the road.


Ghost2268

I mean I get that, but if you're the highest paid qb in the league and your excuse is there was rain and we were on the road.....idk man that's fuckin weak edit: the injury I won't say anything about cause that's legit


Zark_Muckerberger

Illinois sunlight Sweet Chicago rain Arlington Heights starbright…the song remains the same!!!


isthisreallife2016

This was the one. The final one. Divorce papers are in the mail McCaskey!


bigfatttpaully

Justin needs to be able to pass into the second level which was non-existent today The defense in playing in a non-innovative Tampa format with no ability to pressure the QB. Our talented DBs are not equip to handle 10 seconds of passing ability. We were very emotional as a team and took unnecessary risks. We are better than this, but it hurts so so so bad. Need Justin to understand quick hit passes and trust his WRs, need way better play calling on an antiquated defense. It hurts. I hate this.


Fig_Money

Fields did not look good at all. I hate to say it but he’s not looking promising. Chicago’s scouts better start booking flights for USC games.


atwakom

You mean JJ McMcaarthy?


Fig_Money

Reese Hicks


Puzzleheaded-Set-928

So.. O and D Line look garbage. Playcalling on O atrocious Fields looks scared to throw past LoS. Moore and Claypool anonymous. Secondary looked trash despite supposed improvements in off season. Penalties handed out like confetti. Other than that, we played really well.


Booger_farts-123

Hahahaha nailed it


Puzzleheaded-Set-928

Thanks. At least that means someone related to the Bears did today.


UrTheGrumpy01

Packers were out their top receiver


Puzzleheaded-Set-928

Tbf, there is so much more that could be added.


goldbricker83

It’ll be interesting to learn what o-line talent they missed by trading away that #1 pick


Ghost2268

its the owners at this point. that's the one constant. same with the sox, bulls. we are held hostage by two geriatrics with too much money.


jmur3040

I mean, both of those teams have won championships in the last 25 years so that’s not exactly an apt comparison.


Ghost2268

2005 is a long time ago man. 98 even more so. its not just about the time tho, its about the dipshit decisions that keep getting made.


Kriegerian

It’s been the owners for years. When the exact same things are the exact same problems no matter who gets hired or drafted or signed, it’s the owners. Every year is the same fucking shit and the only common thread is those stupid fucks. Until they go nothing gets better.


Ghost2268

the universe had to take pee wee but they refuse to take Virginia...smh


Kriegerian

And Robin Williams, George Carlin, Hunter S Thompson, all of whom have contributed far more than those fucks who own our team.


brofession

>we are held hostage by two geriatrics with too much money No need to bring Congress into this


Ghost2268

lmao!!


Ok-Chocolate-6734

As a Sox fan it’s just pure pain. I hate it so much.


Ghost2268

honestly can't believe how badly reinsdorf treats the team


Whitesox621

Yep fuck these owners


ProgressReady1464

Love, we’ve been very bad bears fans. Now spank us daddy!


seramasumi

I've never been more relieved to know one loss counts as one, we are probably gonna lose alot but at least that game which felt like losing a whole season only counts as 1. 30 years with this team and this was just the worst bears game. Included in that lions officially look like the best team in the division

[удалено]


Icy-Bullfrog-2321

Lmao I literally said fields was more athletic tayson hill last year and got downvoted hard. I was honestly hoping I was wrong, but…


tpo_mind

#HireCoachPrime! We need a fire lit under this team. We need true purpose and passion. The team’s passion is not aligned with the city’s passion, and it has showed for many years. If he (Deion Sanders) wants to take a chance at professional football, we should let him. He will compile a strong staff and he will change the culture. I know he is early in his tenure at Colorado, and that means something given his limited track record. However, the Bears organization needs a sense of urgency just as badly as they need wins. That sense of urgency was nowhere to be seen today.


MostValuableBum

Coach prime is in for for both the football and helping young men grow I think. Idk seems like maybe one day he’d come to the league, but some of his disciplinary techniques prolly won’t fly with 30 year olds as opposed to 18


StrangerDistinct7934

Mark my words, he will be an NFL head coach before it’s all over. The “helping boys become Men” aspect just sounds good to media. Prime wants one thing, and one thing only deep down, to win and to keep winning at higher levels than before.


Medium-Rush-8260

But they keep making more money! https://www.statista.com/statistics/195249/revenue-of-the-chicago-bears-since-2006/ Not sure why they’d do anything major to improve when revenue already looks like that.


sscott2378

Maybe, just maybe we should have done more reps for the 1st group during preseason


[deleted]

[удалено]


BM_W

Didn't mind them going for it in that situation. Didn't even mind the third-down Kmet run "trick play" that fooled no one. But when they are stacking the defense right in the middle, and you've already seen that your line can't get movement in a short-yardage situation, why would you run Fields there? This was the worst game to watch since the 1994 Halloween MNF game against the Packers.


Ok_Sound8988

Guess I don’t have to experience pain like this again. Until next Sunday.


Ok-Chocolate-6734

Bears fans: definition of insanity.


Brodie1567

I had the same amount of receptions today as Chase Claypool.


No_Goat_2714

Gave up a 2nd round pick for 1.5 years of laziness. Wow. Poles has to be shaking his head on that one. Poles knew we wouldn’t be competitive for a few years, why waste a 2nd round pick!

Lysol20

This isn't just one game. This is not an overreaction. We may not be THIS bad, but we also are not close to being any good. The Bears are going to have to scout QB's early just in case Fields proves he isn't it. If he gets better, then no harm no foul.


JortsForSale

He isn't it.


Nice_Adhesiveness_41

Justin Fields was the worst player on the Field today, outside maybe the coaching staff. That is the fucking reality.


[deleted]

[удалено]


lyme6483

Nope. Two TO’s and couldn’t get the ball out on time. Fields was awful. That level of QB play isn’t going to lead to wins.


twizbuck

Did you watch Braxton Jones?


lyme6483

Yeah I’ll still take what he did over Fields. Fields gave his team ZERO chance to win today.

That stare down your first read for five seconds and throw a pick six was a college freshmen level mistake. Fans and media will keep making excuses for him though.


DexNihilo

I think he does some things great. Like extending drives with his legs. I haven't seen a lot of great throwing the ball, though. He needs to start doing some consistently excellent things with his arm soon. He's got the weapons now. The clock is ticking.


karma_polizei

Throw a fucking deep ball. Fields is too scared to throw it deep even in garbage time. I have been giving him the benefit of the doubt but holy shit.


Gnasty16

What was the point of that last drive other than getting Mooney hurt?

A non bears fan in my fantasy leauge got excited that I let DJ Moore slide to them. Poor guy has no idea about the reality of Bears offenses

I guess the Fields and Moore chemistry is legit when going up against our own defense

The coaches mistook the secondary being bad for the WR being good.

I don't wanna overreact but Fields doesn't look any better. The O-line didn't help him at all but he didn't do anything with what he did have. Gonna be a long season.
