What an atrocious 4th & 1 call.
Hackett has been bad - unless things turn around he is gone after this year.But they are stuck with Wilson for a few more seasons after this. His production has been slipping for a couple of years now...and he's already 34! (He didn't get into the league until he was 24.) He probably is still a top 10 quarterback because there is just a lot of bad quarterbacks out there right now, but he's not one I would feel comfortable resting my franchise on at this point.
From what I've seen of Russ this year, it is his reads/timing that have been BAD. I haven't watched his throws closely enough to see if he can still zing it, though I suspect he's average at worst on that. But he has looked like a young QB -locking in on one target, being indecisive then throwing late, having no sense of risk-reward, etc. Even Herbstreit was biting his tongue by the end of the game last night. Some of that can probably be chalked up to new team, new system, but Russ's head does not look in it right now.
Too much magic concussion water? Maybe too little? Not the proper amount of magic concussion water adjusted for altitude. That's gotta be it.
He grossly and hilariously overpaid for his house in Denver. I would think the altitude has been messing with his head from the start
Yikes
Just proves the Bears are a dreadful team almost completely devoid of NFL talent (I'd guess 40+ players will not be back next year). This is by design and the worst part of a rebuild.I hope Fields can figure it out and the high draft choices in the next few years are not needed for a QB; but even taking into account the data provided, he doe not look NFL capable.
What is the record for most consecutive completions?
