First time Fields has a clean pocket all day and just a brutal decision.  That's a terrible throw

Tyson Bagent, your table is ready!

Bears trade for 2 WR.

Bears defensive HC gets multiple big-money defensive FA and spends several 2-5 picks on defense.

And this is the result?

Fire this coaching staff into the sun.

Hard to tell if Fields is a QB. Do they trust him to do anything more than hand off up the middle or throw a WR screen until the game is out of hand?

Down 2 scores in the 4th and they called a QB run up the middle.

Love's played really well, his poise has been outstanding. No reason to think if everyone stays healthy that the Pack can't win the North. Aaron Jones hopefully nothing big with his hammy, just a beast this afternoon.

Fields isn't a quarterback. Sorry but he is making the same exact mistakes he has been for the past three years. At least today Love looks way better.

That sucks for the Bears, but, oh well?

Let him throw the ball around and end up with 2 top 5 picks next season and take a QB.

Or, by some miracle, letting him throw it actually develops him? I dunno

Today's offensive game plan was BAD.

Here's the list of serviceable QB's the Chicago Bears have had in their entire history:

Sid Luckman
Jim McMahon. 

Think about that for a moment.  And what purpose does Getsy serve?

The Bears GM inherited Fields. No guarantees Fields will be back. Fields has to become a top tier QB or he gawn.

And what exactly are the chances he becomes a top tier QB?  10%?

The level of Chicago sports, both pro and college, is cataclysmicly awful and a total embarrassment.

Sounds about right. I thought 50% before the season.

The Bears had no expectation of a winning season so they have the luxury to let him prove it or not.

To be fair to Fields, the Bears defense was equally awful today. The head coach is supposed to be a defensive guru? Fields isn't the only one on the hot seat.

Thus far, they have not allowed him to prove it. Which is a dumb decision

I don't know what you mean "not allowed him to prove it." Are people thinking he is being let down by limiting the playbook or something?

I guess I see an overwhelming number of screen passes called. So, my assumption, is the staff isn't calling plays for him to throw the ball downfield

And I haven't seen much from him when he does. A lot of mistakes like the Quay Walker interception.

Yup, that is also true.  They did nothing today to work DJ Moore open.  It's probably early to say that's a dead staff coaching on that side of the ball but they haven't been good

Fair point.  If the two of us took over the Bulls and the Bears we would likely be better with 0.0 experience imo.

Seems a combination of Fields poor play and being too quick all day to pull it down and run and poor game planning by Bears.  He had what about two or three targets all day?! That's inexcusable.
