Cool. We may be in the market for a backup QB next year.

 

 

[Don Otreply]

Well, for the most part Chicago is a place where careers go to die, 

[jkeerie]

Never thought much of Fields as a QB.  Hoping the Bears finish at the bottom and can draft one of the studs coming out this year.  Would like to see all of the top QBs in this year's draft end up in the NFC.

I’d take Mitch Trubisky over Justin Fields without hesitation… put Fields at Slot WR. Fields is a disaster of a QB. 

[K D]

Fields is pretty decent. He can definitely be a Jalen Hurts type in the right offense. Chicago wouldn't know what to do with a QB if they had one (which they never did in the entire history, wild)

[Doc]

He’s a bust.  They might want to get in on the Caleb Williams sweepstakes.

Haslam: "I'll trade you a first round and second round pick for Fields, and pay him $50,000,000 a year!"

[Just in Atlanta]

Fields is a bottom 5 qb in my assessment- bad throwing mechanics is just the start. 
 

Don’t understand the hype on this guy.

[BuffaloBillyG]

Well, on the good side of they're distracted by how bad the coach and QB are, it will take them longer to realize they vastly overpaid a certain MLB..

Haslam’s dumb but he’s not that dumb. At least Watson looked good for a few years. 

[17islongenough]

I'm guessing Poles drafrs another qb next year.   Fields was already there when he arrived

Haslam drafted Manziel in the first round. He is that dumb.

[Mr. WEO]

Fields could win 11 games with the Bills roster...

 

Am I saying that right?

Glad he's that dumb or they would have drafted Allen over Mayfield. Wonder who'd they had gone with if Allen was gone.   Now that's an ugly thought.......

I've watched JT O'Sullivan do his QB film room on both Bears games so far. If you are bored and like that kind of stuff, start with their week 1 game and then watch this past week. Fields, his weapons, and the coordinator are all playing high school-tier ball and it's very entertaining to watch JT rip into them 

[ToGoGo]

I was waiting for tongue wagging to end. 
 

Great athlete. Whatever QB. 

[loyal2dagame]

It seems that Chicago as a city is not a good place for qbs. Maybe it's what's in the water?

To be fair though I think if he had passed on Manziel it's a good chance that there was some other teams after them with a late round pic that would have got him

The rumor at the time was that it took the collective effort of the entire Cowboys' organization to talk Jerry Jones out of taking him.
