78thealltimegreat Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 (edited) I know he’s just getting used to the NFL but I always thought this talk of Caleb being this once in 5 year kinda talent was little off. Everytime I saw him go against a defense with a pulse in college he struggled. Hopefully that isn’t the case for the Bears sake.

PBF81 Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 We'll see, but he was drafted by the Bears, that's not a good harbinger. Reminds me of this cartoon from years ago; 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fields has a big arm but lost in lots of areas Fields had three first round wide receivers in college LOL Caleb WAS USC... Came back as a true freshman versus Texas when he was at Oklahoma He was the truth right out the gate Edited May 24 by Buffalo716 1 1 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Landing Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 There are 31 teams in the NFL that I hope will fall flat on their collective faces. The Bears aren't high on that list, but they're on it. 11 5 9 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just silly. He really hasn't even HAD a start yet. 6 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGOATski Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 We get this type of thread every year. It's not an indicator of anything. Caveat: I paid zero attention to any QB in the draft. Couldn't care less. I like the Bears, though. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitchen sink Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 As a Bills supporter, I am hoping that the Bears have the worst season possible in 2024 and the Bills get the first pick in the fourth round of the draft next year. 5 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caveat: I paid zero attention to any QB in the draft. Couldn't care less. I like the Bears, though. Yeah, remember the "Mahomes is stinking it up" chatter in the camp before he took over as starter? The "Rookie/young QB struggles in camp" and "(Insert fringe player's name here)'s in the best shape of his life. Big jump coming" articles are rampant every year around this time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 New system, stepping into a league where everyone is the best of the best, and new people to throw the ball to. It will take him some time to get used to the difference in the speed of the game, the tighter windows, and getting to know his teammates. He'll be fine. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is nothing to even worry about the kid will be fine yea you have to be a real jerk to change your opinion of a guy off an OTA practice having a couple errant balls. if you thought he was a bum with major accuracy issues I get feeling some confirmation if he’s sailing passes but…. Pretty complete prospect having a mediocre practice l? Pfffffft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive always said if a guy throws zero picks in practice that’s kind of a concern itself. You can’t be an idiot out there all the time but sometimes you have to actually take the learning reps and that’s by far the best place to see what you can and can’t get away with, right? obviously you want to see lots of success but having zero fails means you probably aren’t pushing yourself much either. There’s a balance there. Edited May 24 by NoSaint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
