As a Bears fan of 40 years, my biggest gripe about this whole situation is that the Bears never seem to put it all together. There have been a lot of years where the defense and even special teams have carried the Bears. There have been a very few years where the offense has been actually decent. Other than that, it's been below mediocrity for a long time. This decision to trade Fields after acquiring everything he has not had at the same time since he's been in Chicago, is such a Chicago thing to do. Now, we have to hope AGAIN that the Bears are not making another franchise stifling decision with whoever they draft for QB. 40 years of mostly crap makes you fairly cynical.
@@cilantro619You really didn't say anything to disprove his point. Bears aquired things Fields needed, and then they traded him. New regime or not, it's consistent with the loop of mediocrity he's referring to
Yea it’s bs I definitely agree
They upgraded the offense and traded him he battles through some shity teams and still got better
Bears showed extreme faith in Fields last year by trading away the #1 pick and not drafting a QB. On top, they traded for a top tier #1 WR DJ Moore and drafted the best O-Lineman in the draft Wright. They gave Fields a chance to show something. He bombed. He’s not a good QB. In face, he’s a terrible QB. You people seriously need to wake up from your strange fantasy
@@cilantro619It’s all about race. If Fields was white, the entire sports media complex wouldn’t be using their platform to promote their shady agenda.
That Kelce clip feels so surreal.
It’s just a slap of reality to fans saying we should listen to dj Moore or pros that wanted fields to stay
@@juanmikel7507dj Moore was just saying what he thought the fans wanted to hear. When they traded Justin, dj said "business is business", which is basically him saying it is what it is.. Funny how u thought he was sOooooo serious. How slow are u?
The clip was also out of place in the conversation. Because kelce didn't have a strong (off fld) relationship with the QB that came before Mahomes, like DJ had with Justin. Also, DJ never got upset at any time during the trade discussions. Hes a bears player, that's still new to the city, so he felt he had to side with the sentiments of the fans. It's that simple - not that deep
@@TahitianTreatSkeetJuiceJr Learn to read. I never said DJ Moore was serious, I was talking about Fields fans that took DJ’s comments as a reason to make the Bears keep fields 🙄
@@TahitianTreatSkeetJuiceJrdamn dude you jump into a conversation and immediately call someone slow because you disagree with them? Your parents clearly did a great job on you. Thanks for contributing.
This guy is one of the best anaylist out there.
Agreed
He's just as wrong as the rest of them. Lol and i bet you that you got a favorite weatherman as well.
@@Mad-genius It’s ok your mad go cry about it
Apparently the GM asked fields who he wanted to be traded to which is why they took less picks for him. Which is pretty respectable honestly.
According to made up 'sources'
That’s probably just PR
@@HansenAssetNah I believe it tbh. Poles and the Bears organization genuinely liked Fields. You can tell when it was genuine.
That's BS PR. Poles was not going to trade Fields until all the starter spots were filled because the last thing he wanted to deal with was Fields going to another team and tearing it up. He waited till they were full and then traded Fields for less to ensure he wouldn't deal with any potential criticism for trading Fields. Poles 100% protecting his job.
Remember when Fields unfollowed the Bears? That's when he was told he was 100% being traded. Poles just had to wait to make sure Fields couldn't prove him wrong by starting somewhere else.
The people who believe this need to go out and touch grass
1st round QBs to post negative EPA/att in EACH of their first 3 years in the NFL:
Joey Harrington (2002-04)
Kyle Boller (2003-05)
Sam Darnold (2018-20)
Daniel Jones (2019-21)
Zach Wilson (2021-23)
Justin Fields (2021-23)
(since 2000, min 200 att/yr)
Man had the worst oline in the game. Someone was on him 2 seconds after every snap. Horrendous coaching and management.
Justin Fields didn’t have a chance. Let’s see what happens next year when he has a coach. I just left the Bears after 40 years because we’re used to this BS, when Caleb Williams starts crying I’m going to be laughing at all the JF1 haters
@@YoungManolo1andOnly Thank you. I’ve been alive 22 years and yet to see the Bears have a competent front office, coaches, and team at once. Not saying he won’t get better or doesn’t have upside but the truth is if he can’t carry USC to a natty in 12 games he’s not carrying the bears for 16.
@@geezyeskabanteQB that takes a little too long to process plus bad OLine play equals horrendous numbers all around. But a QB who can see the holes in a defense to make quick decisions, along with his ability to extend the play like Fields...and...a decent Oline? Rich might be right. We might actually be able to finally have a complete team. Oh yeah our Defense is also soooo so much better and probably going to be even better next year without being under so much pressure. If Caleb can put it together like he did his FIRST game at OU and the rest of his career at USC, then wow this could be special for years.
@@geezyeskabanteJoe Burrow made the super bowl when he was the most sacked qb in the nfl. Mahomes just won the super bowl with an offense that had the most drops in the nfl. Jordan Love just had a monster first season with the youngest and least experienced roster in the entire nfl. Stroud just had a historically good rookie season with an injured #2 wr, a terrible run game and a rookie HC. Amazing how good qbs can thrive even when things aren't perfect around them isn't it?
Thank you Rich. You’ve been nothing like the Chicago media who has been browbeating us into this and chasing the guy out of town. Love how you have respectful takes. But tough when everything is riding on a rookie QB being the next Mahomes
Why does Caleb have to be "the next Mahomes"? He could be the next Burrow, Love, Herbert, Hurts, Lamar, Cousins, Goff, Stroud, Tua, Dak etc and he'd be the best qb the Bears ever had and could win a ton of games and make deep playoff runs. Fields was a faster Trubisky, nothing more.
Or the next Leaf, Manziel, Darnold or Russell@@AdamB34
@@Mad-genius you missed my point entirely
That last clip made me a believer
🤞
Stick with the plan?
Don't be. Rich knows very well that the new QB1 ain't him, if they choose who everyone thinks they'll choose.
.I realized that the secret to making a million is saving for a better investment. I always tell myself you don't need that new Maserati or that vacation just yet. That mindset helped me make more money investing. For example last year I invested 80k in trading and made about 246k, but guess what? I put it all back and traded again and now I'm rounding up close to a million.
Thanks guys, I would like to be your friend to achieve this, I keep losing my funds while trying on my own and finding a trustworthy personnel to help out it also appears to be nearly impossible. This is extremely annoying
My advice to you all is that you shouldn’t just venture on any asset for the sake of it, I’ve come to understand that the recent dip trail is everything.
The pandemic came and taught everyone the importance of having multiple stream of income, unfortunately having a nice paying job doesn't mean you are financial secured anymore. So we all need to put in an extra-income earning chance, like investments.
Really am confused especially in the market analysis, how do people take advantage trading them??
Well, I've tried but was so confused with the inflation in price, due to the pointers on how to make substantial progress in earnings?..
Rich, thank you so much for connecting the Alex Smith and Travis Kelce flashback. Dude, that is brilliant. It will shed light to the Bears eyes when they see what Caleb will bring Chicago next year.
You are forgetting the part where Patty learned from Alex, there is no one to learn from in Chicago. Go down the list of great QBs and most of them sat and developed for a half season minimum. Instead, they will plop the team in his lap and say " Take us to the Promise land " and he will be in a safe space crying while cuddling his dogs with rainbow coloured nails before you know it!
@@kaptainkush4351 This Bears fan, depressingly 100% agrees with you.
Lacks the conteof how much DJ wanted Justin plus patty sat for a year and bears fans is supposed to be happy I haven't seen one CW is good but this generational tag is thrown around too much hasn't even been a generation since the last "generational QB" way to much hype CW will be good tho just not generational
@@evileyevalaus every wr says they like their current starting qb. 2 weeks into training camp Dj will be saying "Caleb is the real deal man. We got a good one" 😂😂
THANK you for this amazing take, it's truly a breathe of fresh air compared to what others are saying. It has shocked me that other Bears fans have been treating this like a soap opera more than a football team making football decision.
As a Bears fan since I moved here in 1999 I just feel deflated. All these qbs we’ve not really supported and Fields despite all that was coming out the other side. I hope who we take defies the odds of ALL the first round qbs across the league that haven’t become great so far and most have struggled. We could have given Fields all these new weapons plus Marvin Harrison. That’s what I truly wanted for Fields. Hope he crushes it in Pittsburgh. Im tired of all the media saying it had to be Williams. If it’s a disaster where will you be then?
Fields was not coming out the other side lol. He actually regressed as a runner this year and his passing numbers were nearly identical to 2022
9% of his throws at OSU were targets at < 10yds.
Had an almost historic low % of throws to tight windows for top prospects.
Last year, the Bears OL Pass-blocking Win-rate ranked 5th best per espn.
My biggest problem is that we have no backup plan. Bagent is decent, but struggles to throw downfield. We could have had a dynamic backup, or if whoever we drafted is not ready day 1, we're stuck with that QB. I have never said that fields was the definitive answer, but it's hard trusting a guy who has never taken a NFL snap to take over no questions asked
Fields has taken thousands of nfl snaps and all you could trust him to do is be a horrible passer and fumble the game away in the 4th
Very good video Rich.
This tandem of WRs, could be potentially amazing, hopefully on the good side
Now imagine keeping fields and adding MHJ 🤦🏾♂️
Thanks Rich! Everyone is painting all this doom and gloom for the Bears. It's almost like they don't want the Bears to succeed. Regardless of the past, the Bears team now as constructed, is the best situation a rookie can step into.
It's because the Bears aren't good enough and they don't provide the appeal and lust like Kansas City does. The only way for the Bears to do anything is to beat the NFL's Golden children, but we know that may never happen after what took place in Super Bowl LV and the AFC Championship vs Cincinnati the first time.
@@TheSGIIIShowwhat are you even saying lol
Chicago is a big market team and always will be.
@@jackpasqualini2014 the only way the Bears will ever be good is to have an elite team like KC. Also, to gain any respect, they have to win games and beat teams like KC. KC is the golden child of the NFL and beating them is hard work, especially if there are other factors involved
@@TheSGIIIShow This guy gets it!
In Chicago we are excited for Caleb and he is coming into a great situation
No he’s not the bears are still a bad team. What changed? Swift? Allen? they’re low mid at best
Don’t speak for me.
@@geezyeskabante what changed? They just made major upgrades rb/wr and got better olinemen. They will draft a new qb. It's an entirely new offense aside from Moore n Kmet. Doesn't mean they'll be good but the team has changed drastically lol.
Justin will have a good career for Pittsburgh. He will change narratives.
Loaded AFC and AFC north
Burrow
Lamar
Mahomes
Allen
Stroud
Lawrence
All qbs better than Fields but yeah I guess he will succeed in Pittsburgh 🤣😊
Nah
What narrative? That he's a turnover machine? lol
Worst 4th quarter qb I've ever seen
Who cares. Bears nation has moved on. Go cheer with Pittsburgh.
The last time the Chicago Bears "hit" on a quarterback was way way way way way back in 1938 with the legendary great Hall of Famer Sid Luckman!!!😆
You got all this praise on Caleb even though he hasn't taken a NFL snap. You got his ego & drama dad already being a soap opera. You say to them they hope it works out. Even though he goes in with the weapons, what if it don't work out?
Nobody is talking about that, they have already made Caleb a super star without proving anything.
It doesn't matter. Because trying to change is always the right move - whether it works out or not - when you have 3 years of tape showing your current guy is not it
@@jamesbohm3690 but what I'm getting at is what will Chicago do if it doesn't work out? There is so much praise and not many better QB out there
@@robertbeneux4923there’s over twenty quarterbacks better than fields, maybe more. If Caleb isn’t it, they’ll move on just as they had to do with fields.
This is gonna be a disaster, but it'll be entertaining, at least.
And skips his Bowl Game, skips the Combine, and will probably skip his Pro Day. Attitude problems already. Can't handle losing and looks disinterested when he does. How the hell is he going to handle the pressures of the NFL? Red flags everywhere
His replacement went 2-2, ha. JF played better after injury bc he seen what could be done w that terrible OC. He’s not “it”: can’t read def, holds ball too long/long delivery, can’t throw a WR open/waits til they get open, can’t close out a game. He can rush….but every game over 100yds was a loss.
We’re more excited in my house for the bears than we have been for years!! Our offense is stacked and we have incredible draft capital!!
As a bears fan (and a Justin fan no matter where he’s at) that Kelce clip is reassuring
Remember, with the way things have changed for the college students, being in control of their own marketing and profiting off themselves, these guys have a lot of power. They don't have to be desperate for any team to take them. Caleb seems like a guy who wouldn't go anywhere he doesn't think he can succeed. I think they feathered the nest very nicely for him to want to go there. The defense is strong, the pieces he has around him are strong, and they still have picks to add to the package.
@@ultravenia I agree with that
@@ultraveniathey literally just play for whoever drafts then. They have zero control over where they get drafted
Caleb will say DONT DRAFT ME to the bears
That would make this already disastrous decision even funnier.
He already said he likes that the Bears are committed to winning
Bears fan here. Knowing our luck, CW goes down with an injury in the first 3 weeks of the season.
It’s definitely gonna happen😂 I hope not but it’s the bears🤷♀️
You better find some wood to knock on.
Hasn't he had two ACL injures already?
Hopefully 🙏🙏🙏
Bagent is better than Fields 🤷🏽♂️
Rich, I've listened to maybe a dozen of these "talk me off the ledge" speeches today but yours was the best articulated and hit all the right notes. When you put it like that how can I not give it a chance I guess
Well said sir!
Thanks for the much needed therapy session Rich. This Bears fan definitely appreciates it. This one stings a little, sucks playing the coulda woulda shoulda game, especially in Chicago where it feels like getting a good young quarterback is the boulder and the right coaching staff to develop them is the hill of Sisyphean proportions.
Well said
You made me feel better
All the claims the media made about Williams better exactly be that. No excuses. No he needs time, he needs more protection and he needs more weapons. Cause many Bears fans were wanting that for Justin and the media kept saying "how much more help does he need" now after the trade, the media is saying "you have to protect your QB and give him weapons" no sh!t
All in with Fields? By selling off parts of the team to tank? Riiiighht! They were all in alright - all in on year 4, which Fields won't get to see here.
Well said
The Bills gave Josh Allen Stefon Diggs in his third season, and he became MVP runner-up. The Bears gave Justin Fields DJ Moore after passing up on drafting either Young or Stroud, and he showed barely any progress in his passing game.
@@Portuducks right, didn't Justin and Moore have the highest connect rate in the league? But let's also forget the bills had a better o line than the bears, right?
@@javierg.249Fields had the second most time to throw the past two years and how has he done?
@@708robertd do it.
This is why I love Rich Eisen!! Always talks about the Bears with respect! Dude isn’t like these other media clowns!! Keep it up Rich! Much love!
Going through all the emotions
The difference with Kelce and Mahomes is they were already teammates 😎
Hey Rich, how was that Zach Wilson experience for you?
Believe it when you see it. I’ve got serious doubts
I root for Fields, but I ride for the Bears.
We'll be fine...Our GM is cookin.
✊🏽🐻⬇️
Yep. Never even tried cooking anything for Justin. 😂
@@eddiejames9827I mean.... Poles gave Justin everything he could with what he had to work with. Pace left the team in a bad spot when it came to the roster and the budget. Poles had to untangle all of that, and he's done a hell of a job in just two years.
@@eddiejames9827.....Poles tried to do BOTH. Reset the cap/draft situation (very few picks) AND provide Justin with some pieces that he could while being in that bad situation.
Unfortunately, the timelines didn't match. And also Carolina being butt, gave us the #1 pick again. If we were picking #3. This might not be a thing.
Selfishly speaking. I live in Cincinnati, so I'll be able to see bro play in the future if he stays. He should be fine, in Pittsburgh with solid coaching and management.
no we want
@@eddiejames9827Fields was horrible in the 4th quarter and an absolute turnover machine 🤦🏽♂️
As a die hard Bears fan they were put in a tough position where half of the scenarios are probably going to cost the GM and coach their jobs.
1. Keep Fields trade the #1 pick, Fields doesn't improve and Williams ends up being a great NFL QB
2. Trade Fields and draft Williams, Fields blossoms somewhere else and Williams doesn't turn out to be the guy either
3. Keep Fields and trade the pick, Fields turns the corner, you have a bunch more picks and Williams does or doesn't do well
4. Draft Williams and he does well, Fields steps up with his new team and improves them
I personally, was leaning toward keeping Fields, accumulating picks, and if it didn't work out this year, use them to make a move to try to trade for a vet or up in the draft to get a QB next year. However, I'm not getting paid millions of dollars a year to evaluate these kind of things and make these decisions so I'll put my faith in those who are. As a fan though, I still reserve the right to call them morons if, three years from now, it turns out they made the wrong call as, historically, the Bears generally have always done when it comes to QBs.
Don’t forget Everett
Look, Rich, I respect you, however, every advanced stat had Justin as a bottom 1/4 passer. He simply wasn’t/isn’t good.
He was bad in crunch-time.
We can make a million excuses as to why he didn’t win more games, but in the end, time just ran-out.
Stop repeating the same narrative. You dont even know what advanced stat you’re talking about
Definitely didn't throw every route in the tree either.
@@hailmaryrecordings8255it really felt like Fields finding a way to lose at the end of a close game was inevitable. Some really egregious fumbles, picks, missed reads, etc were all too common for him in the clutch.
@@SplashIt34 Ok genius, give us the advanced stats that show that Justin Fields is an elite processor/thrower of the football(not a runningback, a quarterback).
Highest sack rate I've ever seen, yet he doesn't have the worst OL in NFL history....hmmm... could it be that Justin Fields is DUMB? and cannot process past his first read? Highest time to throw.....is that the OLs fault or the QB who holds the ball forever? He is a bad QB and has had the same flaws since college. This isn't hard to process. Maybe you have a Justin Fields brain.
0:41 Said ouch 😂Mane was silly asf for that
Thank you for that.. We as bears fans needed that
Getting a sixth round pick, because he wanted to supposedly do right by fields, and refusing to interview Jim Harbaugh is going to guarantee that by 2025 my team has a brand fucking new Regime, because the more things change the more they stay the motherfucking same!
It took a couple of days to process, but it really comes down to wins, losses, dollars & cents.
Fields never lead a come from behind victory, or succeeded in a two-minute drill. He fumbled or threw a pick.
I just hope Caleb Williams isn’t Ryan Leaf.
Ok. I'll bite. Do tell after 2 years at being GM, what moves did Poles make to ensure the success of Justin? 😂
I personally, don't believe Ryan Poles ever intended on giving anything to Justin to help him succeed. He's went all out for his new toy to succeed by getting experienced coaches, Justin had Getsy for 2 years, an OC who'd never called or designed plays before in his life! 😂
Put 1 offensive weapon on the team and barely touched that horrendous O-line. NOW, he's brought in numerous weapons in 1 week and upgraded the O-line. 🤦♂️
Fields has one career win versus a winning team. That's not the guy you want hanging around with your team approaching a SB window.
@@eddiejames9827 Nagy was a highly experienced and highly respected offensive coordinator as was Bill Lazor. You all blamed them for Fields poor rookie season. Then Getsy comes in and makes Fields the top rushing qb in the nfl and you all blame him for Fields still being a terrible passer. Then they get Fields a top tier wr1 to go with his top 10-12 tight end and Fields is STILL a horrible paser and you blame Getsy. Now Fields gets traded for a 6th round pick because NOBODY wanted him as their starting qb because he's been a terrible passer for 3 consecutive years and you're STILL pretending he's good but wasn't given a fair chance 🤣🤣🤣... Fields fans are BY FAR the most delusional fans in the nfl
@@eddiejames9827 Texans had a rookie offensive coordinator and rookie head coach last year. Neither one ever designed or called an offensive play in their life. They also had absolutely no run game, a below avg oline and their #2 wr missed half the season. And yet, their rookie qb Stroud thrived.
Green Bay had the youngest and least experienced roster in the entire nfl last year. None of their wrs/tes had more than 1 year of nfl experience. They were missing their #1 wr, #1 te, #1 LT and #1 rb for half or all of the season. Their qb had only started one game in his 3 year career and yet, that qb (Love) thrived.
Just for fun because I know you'll say "it's Mahomes" but another narrative put out by Fields apologists is that his wrs dropped too many passes. Well, last year the Bears had one of the lowest drop rates in the nfl and nobody dropped more passes than the Chiefs and yet, Mahomes still thrived and won the super bowl while Fields was 29th in completion%, 24th in qbr, 23rd in passer rating and 23rd in pass ypg.
But I do enjoy a good "it's everyone else's fault" rant from Fields fans. It's always pretty entertaining
Never seen a QB get babied by the media this bad. None of the GMs even bothered to give up a 3rd or 4th rounder.
Never seen such ignorance about why the trade flopped..
Some bears fans really love ineptitude lol to be so attached to a bum who hasn’t had a 3k passing season yet is insanity
And CW has?
This makes me feel better.
The worst part of this is the Bears threw Fields to the wolves for 2 years, he flashed unique ability, did not complain, showed unbelievable toughness and leadership(went straight to the podium after the CLE catastrophe in ‘21). Bears finally give him 1 bona fide weapon in DJ Moore, who not only had a career year, his connection with Fields LEAD THE LEAGUE with a passer rating of 146. Fields is clearly ascending…the last 20 games, his stats are basically the SAME AS LAMAR’S!! The Bears FINALLY BUILD AN OFFENSE, and they toss Fields aside for NOTHING!! He never gets the chance to do what you saw @OSU! Based on what he did with no help, with this roster, he would have been ELITE! And now, the Bears are rolling the dice with a rookie QB, who’s NEVER PLAYED IN THE LEAGUE???
1. He didn't complain? He literally very publicly said "they wanted me to work on staying in the pocket during the off season. But I want to extend plays, get out of the pocket. I'm just going to play my game next week. Go out there and play how I want to play".... he literally said he's going to ignore the coaches and play how he wants.
2. What unique ability did he flash? He was a bottom 5-10 passer with a few flashy runs. That's not unique, we've seen that for decades now.
3. Dj Moore had a career year because of his ability to run after the catch. He set a career high in yards after catch but had the 2nd lowest yards before catch of his last 5 years. He was taking short passes from Fields and turning them into bigger gains on his own.
4. They had such a high passer rating between them because they were throwing short, easy passes to Moore lol. Again, he had the 2nd lowest yards before catch of his last 5 years. Fields Air Yards Per Attempt while targeting Moore was near the bottom of the league.
5. His stats in his last 20 games are absolutely not "basically the same" as Lamar's lol
Last year alone Lamar completed 67.2% of his passes for 3,678 yards, 24 pass tds, 7 ints and a 102.7 passer rating in 16 games. Fields has 3,284 pass yards, 26 pass tds and 14 ints in his last 20 games with a passer rating and completion% that are significantly lower than Lamar's.
6. Fields is ascending? He regressed in every rushing category this year and put up nearly identical passing numbers as 2022.
Lastly... Williams hasn't played in the league, but Fields has he's been terrible the entire time. You seem pretty confused
Bears gave him NOTHING.. yet, expected everything. Now, the team builds, and trades him. THAT is the BEARS thing to do... I hope he comes back and beats the brakes off of them. I'm a lifelong bears fan, but I'm TIRED of starting over every 3 years
100% agree with you. I’ve Been a bears fan for 35 years and this team is just exhausting. I feel like I’m going to have to walk away from the bears for a while. This has just made me sick
Being attached to bums is unhealthy. Caleb clears that jag
@@ebn128 CW is a bust. Watch and see
He will be a cancer for the locker room.
@@chrispine5771justin fields was literally a bust 😂😂😂🤡
So DJ Moore isn't a good receiver? Cole Kmet and Darnell Mooney are scrubs all of a sudden? Teven Jenkins, Braxton Jones, and Darnell Wright can't block at all?
Stop making excuses for a running back playing quarterback
That was a great narrative Rich. Not the same. It’s easy for you to say because you’re not a bears fan. I’m willing to bet if Jets were in the same position, you would say stay the course, rookies are uncertain. I’m done discussing it. I already have my KC gear.
As a bears fan of 27 years, this is the first time the bears are going to pick #1. I just pray they get it right and nothing but the best for Justin, he was so fun to watch, I hope he can be the future in Pittsburgh. Was dealt a shitty hand, hope it works out for him
Last year when the Bears traded the number one pick they were saying "Justin, you're our guy." He had last year to demonstrate that that faith was justified and he didn't. Somehow by a miracle the Bears got the number one pick again. So would you give Fields a second chance to demonstrate that he's the guy? No, of course not. Not worth the risk. I'm surprised that the Bears settled for such a weak trade return but trading Fields made sense. Fields had three years. How many great quarterbacks currently playing do you know of who couldn't lead their team to a playoff spot within the first three years? You know who took until year four? Daniel Jones and then the Giants stupidly signed him to a giant contract and a mere year later are moving on. If a QB can't figure it out after starting for three years, odds are he never will.
Drew brees
If a guy can play he can play. Jones for the Giants had the same situation and doesn’t get this kinda pass.
Great clip. All of us are often shortsighted. It's only when we gain a broader perspective that we realize we've been here before
1. WRs being open in college is very different than "NFL open". He was spoiled by the WRs at OSU. 2. Chicago has never been a stable situation for qbs.
Great for JF.
Bears fan here. Pissed
Hahaah caleb time mf
Bears fan here. Happy
Not gonna help at all 😂 team is still fucked @Chasingdreams_
Been a bears fan for 35 years an the maddest ive ever been was week 1 against the packers an fields literally looked like a backup. He had flashes of greatness. But thats it
About what? Getting off the train to nowhere?
I'm happy. Hopefully Justin has a great opportunity to succeed in Pittsburgh.
Caleb's coming to Chicago.
Erik Kramer in 1995 - 3,880 pass and 29TD's most yards and TD's by a Chicago Bear QB. Caleb will be at that with this team as a rookie!
"Monday Overreactions, on Tuesday". The Rich Eisen Show reports facts as often as my colon sneezes out a proper turd. PS. I'm scheduled for a colonoscopy next week. Love you, Rich!
We deserve a better franchise here and all of the problems we've faced start at the top. Things will not change unless the team gets sold.
Bears fan here. Pissed.
Then you're not a bears fan; you're a fields fan
You shouldn’t be pissed. Us bears fans who aren’t blindly loyal to Fields have known this would happen months ago. If you haven’t figured out poles plan yet, catch up.
Pissed because you got rid of a backup🤣
@@RedHoodFH I can disagree with the organizations decisions and still be a fan. Felt the same way when we got rid of Thomas Jones for Cedric Benson.
I still trust Poles. But I think Justin is going to be a menace for years to come if he could develop under Tomlin
I've only heard williams being compared to Mahomes in talent, never leadership skills. The Kelce to Moore comparison is not even close to being comparable.
Thanks Rich.... well said! I Still believe in Justin but MAYBE ITS TIME FOR A CHANGE . Pray that who ever we pick, they make the Bears A contender play of team. I've bin a Bears fan since 1975 Soooooo you know the story!
It's hard to say stick with the plan when Caleb isn't walking in to play for a playoff team. Probably be an easier pill for Bears fans to swallow if they had a coach like Andy at the helm.
That's the only question mark here (besides how Caleb will adjust to the NFL of course). Is he the guy that can get them there? That question is the same for coaches as it is for QBs.
CW is going to be a smaller version of JF with the same fumbles but with better throwing ability. Cant wait to see who the Bears select in three years.
If you are smart enough to "know" that Poles knows it too. He can draft an QB he likes best.
You have to make the bold play at some point.
Fr 😂
NE fan spotted. Sorry not giving you the pick.
Justin Fields has never had an offensive coordinator
and no offensive line
He had offensive guru genius matt nagy hahahahahah
Stop making excuses. Chargers had horrible offensive coordinators and Justin Herbert threw fine.
@@timothydeyoung5653and butter fingers. He was a turnover machine.
Hard to coordinate an offense lead by a RB playing QB. With Fields is a simplified, dumbed down, college style playbook. Fields has some of the worst mental processing I’ve ever seen from a QB that got to be a full time starter for 3 seasons. Never once benched, despite being one of the worst QBs in the league
"May" is a big word
Mr. Fields has been running for his life since he got to here, I believe if this organization had any Idea what they were doing OFFENSIVELY I wouldn't be able to call out what plays there running when they line from my couch. I've seen better offensive strategies playing MADDEN!!! DA-DUMPSTER FIRE BEARS, had a chance to trade down pick up MARVIN HARRISON JR. the only no doubt 2nd generation superstar talent even this organization couldn't screw up or so I thought!!! LOYALTY means nothing to this Coaching staff!!!❤❤❤ALL LOVE FROM SWEET HOME CHICAGO!!!❤❤❤NINERS NATION FOR LIFE!!!❤❤❤
Caleb put up 2 300 yard games back to back and beat the packers once this year he passes JF and these fans crying will forget all about JF.
46 year bear fan : RICH THIS VIEDO WAS LIKE GOING TO CHURCH ❤ WE ALL NEEED TO HEAR THIS THE ARCHIVE THE FACT YOU ARE AMAZING ❤
What a bad trade for Bears. Again going for an untested NFL rookie.
To be fair, we pretty much have no choice since nobody will ever shut up about the Mitch Trubisky fiasco..
I think I'll always be a fields fan no matter the team he plays on! I just hope the bears doesn't pull in a primadonna for their QB...
C Williams should be on fire with two number ones and RB Swift. But Ryan Poles didn't pick Fields to begin with. But Fields went to a good team and Russ knows he can win one playoff game
Stop comparing Williams to Mahomes. He’s not earned the right to even be mentioned with Mahomes.
Bears fan of 40 years, I've seen a lot of QB's come and go, some great, some good and some downright terrible. I'll support whoever the Bears draft because they'll be QB1.
Fields cannot process and throw quickly enough..He did not improve.
I wanted Tyson to be are starting QB instead of Fields. So go ahead and sit Williams and let Bagent, show him what it takes a be an NFL quarterback.
Let the Heisman winner learn from a D 2 perfect
I like TyB also, but he is only a QB2 currently. He needs a year or two but could be a diamond in the rough in the future.
Why does everyone forgot Herbert and the chargers? Literally perfect situation but HC
Deep.
Him and Alex had a good run but could not get over the hump
Imagine giving Justin Fields the same plate that Caleb Williams will have. I bet Justin would be eating right now.
CW will be a better passer than Fields on day 1. It's an easy decision.
Well, if you're gonna go out and get him 3 quality receivers to add with DJ and Kemet, how could he not? And Ryan upgraded that horrendous O-line. 😂
@@eddiejames9827They got that for him BECAUSE he's better than Fields, not because they hope he'll be 😂
@@threezysworld8089 CW better than fields? I need the drugs you on fr💯
@@eddiejames9827What excuses are you going to make when Fields fails everywhere else he goes?
@christopherharris3229 What excuses can you give for Poles and Eberflus sabotaging a young man's career just so they can get their QB? It's evidence that these people are snakes. 🐍 😆
As a Bears fan for over 50 years I hope that don't draft Williams or as RG3 said he and there's other quarterbacks should tell the Bears they don't want to play there. It would be great then maybe they will fire Poles and Eberflus
I'll say it one last time nobody could have done better than Justin fields in the very first year 2022 polls got rid of 15x by the time roquan Smith was traded he got rid of four starting offensive lineman he got rid of five of six wide receivers only Darnell Mooney came back the entire front seven on defense was gone and all the backups on offense and defense who are not on rookie contracts the defense during our 14 game losing streak gave up 33 points a game nobody could have done better than fields and the thing that I give him the most credit for he never bitched her complained
I don't have it in my heart to be hopeful. I wanted Justin Fields to be my quarterback. I don't trust that Williams is all that good. And moreover, I feel like Williams is always going to be in it for himself and his Father, not for the Bears or Chicago. Time to Bear down for another rough half a decade.
As a former quarterback there's absolutely no way I would ever play for a Bears franchise, one of the oldest in NFL history, that historically has had only one truly great quarterback and that was Sid Luckman who retired way back in 1950 and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1965
Still at it with the cutting and pasting 😂
Not even a Bears fan but just from looking at Justin when he was in Chicago, it definitely felt like he was stifled and screwed over by the Bears incompetence as a whole.
He didn’t have an offensive line worth a damn to protect him, only one receiver he could get bailed out by and a nonexistent running game at the halfback position. He has potential but the organization never knew how to get it out of him since the Bears never do, they thought that he could do it like Tom Brady and there’s only one of him! I feel he got a bad hand and did the best he could but he didn’t have a surrounding cast to help worth a damn
Poor Justin Fields only had Dj Moore (6th in rec yards), Cole Kmet (9th in yards for te) and only got 1,388 rush yards out of his top 3 rbs this year. Jordan Love had Jayden Reed (42nd in rec yards), Tucker Kraft (not even top 25 for te rec yards) and got 1,410 rush yards out of his top 3 rbs...
And yet, Love had an mvp caliber season and won a playoff game in his first year starting while Fields couldn't even manage to be a top 20 passer and went 5-8 🤣🤣
That was a great clip with Kelce. Bears fans, we have to look forward to whoever we take at QB, Justin is gone and he went to the Steelers. My wife was born and raised in Pittsburgh and she’s happy to have Justin there! I’m not! I wanted him to come to the Raiders because we live in Las Vegas.
Both Russ and Justin now have a coach who will treat them like FAMILY!! They will get a much needed break from "your" hate!
My fellow Bears fans... we shall use this off season to mourn our loss. We all loved Fields. But come week 1, it is a new and promising Era. Together we shall rejoice. Stick to the plan. 🐻 ⬇️
Pat sat with Alex. Who will Ryan Leaf, I mean, Caleb Williams sit with?
Sometimes a guy is just a good college QB and thats okay
How is it always the Bears fault? Maybe Fields isn't that good on the NFL level. I hope Justin proves me wrong but only time will tell.
he played at an elite program and was throwing to 2 first round receivers. he is a rb who can throw, no shock he didn't pan out in the NFL. speaking of which, god helps whoever drafts Jayden Daniels
Brilliant Assessment. Bears need a gun Slinder at the helm to distribute that ball to all that talent!!
Bears could have been relevant. Could have kept Fields, drafted Harrison, raffled off that first pick for assets. People would have been paying attention to that team. And now...
Wow i can't believe that people actually believe in a quarterback that paints his nails and runs crying to his mom in the stands when he loses a game. The bears are going to regret this move.
Probably, but, thankfully, I won’t be watching this year.
Well Rich, the media get their way. All they want to see is 4 QBs taken in the 1st round so as to have their storylines for the next 3yrs.
Yes. This was all a media conspiracy against Fields. You nailed it
Better be wins jobs on line I do see Great players on Bears going to give QB chance but a little suspect
Throwing the entire route tree at a college where they had an offense that was stacked to the gills and his wide outs were wide open constantly isn't the same as the NFL. There is WAY more margin for error. The decision making doesn't need to be as fast. The defenses don't disguises their looks as well.
There are a whole lot of reasons why QBs look like studs in college, but not in the NFL. How many first rounders need to fail for this just to be commonly accepted. If anyone knew the secret to drafting blue chip QBs they would be billionaires.
You know, there’s a thing called quarterback development, right?
What part of my comment prompted you to reply with that?
