@@BaronVonBielski but I’m pretty sure the coaching will play to the strengths of they’re roster instead of just running what they ran over and over no matter who they had and even after failing and being ranked almost last every season they were coaching the bears. They will play to fields strengths and the lines strengths this season and give him extra protection in situations they need it and if the line can’t block at all they will run the ball and play action and roll out off of that to protect the quarterback. The line might have worse players this season but I promise you they will have better success with better coaching
The way Fields and Trubisky were treated by that coaching staff is absolutely disgusting. If Nagy had his way, he would've ruined the career of two QBs who were promising coming out of the draft, both seen as having insane ceilings and room to grow, simply because he couldn't accept he, as coach, wasn't the star of his team. If his offense didn't work, he blamed it on others and forced THEM to adjust. Mitch probably could've been a FANTASTIC passer-scrambler type QB, if only he had a coach like how Russell Wilson and Josh Allen did. Let's just hope this new staff will ensure Fields has the career he deserves.

Stop trying to act like for some reason anything here has changed. If the coaching is bad, Fields will fail, just like, if not worse than Trubisky. In fact, in a better offense than Trubisky had, along with an overall better team (special teams and defense included) than Trubisky played under his rookie year, Fields threw for the same amount of TDs, less yards, and more INTs, with a lower completion percentage. Fields had extreme talent in Robinson, Graham, Mooney, Grant, Kmet, and Monty as viable receiving options. Trubisky had Josh Bellamy and Kendall Wright, one of which retired that year, and the other who retired the year after. Only one of the top 4 recievers on that team played more than 2 years after that year, and none of them started for any other team, nor are still in the league. Trubisky and Fields situations are not comparable other than the fact that coaching is what will decide if they succeed or fail. Not some innate talent disparity between the two of them that people like you seem to want to believe in.
Been saying it but bears fans wanted to see him so bad last year. I was happy Dalton was out there over Fields. Fans bullied Nagy to start Fields and it might have ruined his confidence.
@Bryan Smith No they traded up for Fields, when you don't have a line or weapons don't draft a Rookie QB in top 15. Not every QB will be like Justin Herbert or Andrew Luck off the bat. I can only think of these two QB's that were able to overcome a bad situation in their rookie year, last 20 years only two QB were able to overcome a bad situation in their rookie year
I know its only preseason but fields has been getting through his reads much quicker, almost too quick in some situations. Hes still got to work on it but you can definitely see improvements from last year
I find it funny how this guy wants to say fields can't get through his reads and then say he has a bad line and no talent around him. In a numbers stand point that's 2 of 3 on a negative scale.
rewatching this after Fields insane 2022 season. We saw the flashes of the Fields, i think, we all want to see. Just needs that Oline to hold for a second or two longer.
Hey a month later it's like night & day. And agree 1000% about how Bears effed Fields & actually Trubiscuit & believe it or not - Cutler. Yes Cutler was extremely hamstrung by a number of factors. Would love to see you do a new video of second half season Justin at QB. Love the channel
As an Ohio state fan, this was a great video. I never knew what to think about fields after his rookie season bc the bias in me wanted to say it was all on the bears but my unbiased side saw some concerns that I couldn’t get past. As long as his confidence didn’t get shaken too much and the coaches play to his strengths I feel as if he can develop into a good qb in the nfl. He has all the physical tools that you can’t teach so everything else just needs to be coached up which is the “easier” part. (Also having a play caller that doesn’t just pull shit out of his ass helps)
With 2022 Season over for the Bears, I can confidently say that, when Fields is given room to breathe, he can really preform quite well. I think he fits well into the new system, and so far, the Bears biggest flaw has been our horrible defense, as our GM basically fully embraced the rebuild. So who knows? Maybe in 3-4 years, when we get some better defense and O-Line, the Bears could be pretty strong.
It’s not impossible to evaluate Fields. Anybody with a shred of sports IQ know that he has the skill set to be an franchise QB it’s just impossible to show his full capabilities at the moment and the better question is will he ever get the chance to? Casually reviewing his rookie year not gonna tell you shit but the things we already knew 9 months ago. Nagy and pace desperately got him as an bargaining chip to stay a while longer. Really didn’t try to play him at first and when they did they had little to no plays made to his special skill set. This year you’ll see a difference if you haven’t seen it already in sample sizes from him in last two preseason games
Love Fields. He's the guy. I've waited decades for the Bears to finally get a franchise qb and I'm thrilled he's here. And the Bears are intent on getting the kid killed. Their #1 priority this year was to fix that horror show of a pass blocking line. If they had done nothing else but that, we could have a fun season watching him develop. Not great, but fun. But, in true Bears fashion, they fixed everything except what they needed to.
Ron that can’t continue to be an excuse. He threw for 1800yds 7tds and 10 ints in 12 games last year. Russell Wilson had one of the worst o lines in the NFL the majority of his career in Seattle and still stood tall and got the ball where it needed to be. What you guys fail to realize is that’s what’s supposed to make good QBs good, playing good with not the best pieces around them
@@misterceo2168 your acting like his line was the worst. And you act like Doug Baldwin and Tyler Lockett died or something. Name one WR Justin has had even CLOSE to them
@@ajkareem5685 see this is the problem right here…Lol the excuses keep building. Now it’s what weapons does he have. He had Allen Robinson and Darnell Mooney together and only mustered up 7 passing tds. You’re gonna be making these same excuses 10 years from now
Just let me say that I believe that Justin is special and all we need is time to develope him and continue to build our O-line and warmth the desire players we've drafted and by next season we will get a he'll of better over this season and the next we will be getting way better seriously!!!
Fix the offensive system and offensive play calling, it fixes a lot of these issues and puts the pressure on the players ability to buy into the philosophy.
Interesting to watch this now, in March 2023 after the Bears traded down their #1 overall--because of course they sucked just as much or more through the 2022 season--and now have a shit ton of draft picks, and DJ Moore. So after two full seasons, the Chicago front office appears to have finally realized that they probably should get some help for their high-profile, young qb. Hopefully for his sake, two full seasons of complete failure and getting his ass destroyed by opposing defenses hasn't wrecked Fields for good. If he never lives up to his potential, I think as much blame has to be put on the organization as on Fields himself. It reminds me od Alex Smith: dude finally became a pro-bowler after he was all beat up at the end of his career because, after years of terrible teams and dozens of coaches in SF, he eventually played on a competent team led by Andy Reid who knew how to make the most of his talents. And then, of course, he had the continued bad luck to lose his job to the best qb in a generation, get traded to another incompetent team, and have his his leg broken so bad that he almost have to have it amputated. Smith might have been a great qb instead of a guy who had to play his ass off in the latter part of his career to prove he wasn't a bust in the early part. I hope Fields gets a fairer shot to succeed than Smith ever did.
You can't "turn over a roster in a year" under those conditions. But lack of picks and lack of cap space are the result of front-office decisions. And then once they were in that situation, they didn't even really try to make the offense any better. They're risking a serious injury against Fields, which is utter malpractice.
It's not that they can't turn over a team in one year. I agree with you. The problem I have is that this org has ZERO ability to turn a team over, period! Give the Bears five years to put together a great team, and they will win six games. Then we will be told to wait another five years. Wake me up when the McCaskeys actually put together a consistently good team, not just a one-hit wonder like 2018 or 2001. I'm not getting on you, mind you. It's just that this org has no ability to put together a good team. None.
Honestly, this video changes my perspective on JF. I mean, I've always heard the coaching staff that drafted him was a total dumpster fire so it shouldn't be a surprise. I'm not a Bears fan but I hope his talent isn't wasted because he could be a lot of fun to watch based on what I'm seeing here
Damn will the rest of the world just relax!!! Bears fans know what's up.... we ain't new to this shit!! If he's the one......HE'S THE ONE. If not we'll move on soon enough and get back on the QB carousel. It's the life of a Bears fan. We'll be ahight!! 🐻⬇️
🎯 Justin Fields last 5 games last year: Top 3 Deep Passer in NFL, League leading 91.0 outside the pocket, Most 20+ yard runs in the league, Top 5 in W.A.R. with next to nothing. NUFF SAID
I know everyone bags on the talent of the o-line, but have we really seen how good they can be since they had the same coaching that had a chance of ruining Fields.
I agree 100% that is isn't fair to evaluate Fields based on last year, and that goes for any other talent on that roster! One thing missed in this is that Fields took ZERO snaps with the Ones in training camp - he was relegated to holding a clipboard until tossed into the fire during the Cleveland game! Add in a ridiculous game plan based on the talent and he was setup for failure. His detractors are quick to point out his slow reads without acknowledging that he had not be coached effectively, was playing with what appeared to be sub par talent, and had to deal with horrific play calling!!! Hell Nagy went through 4 different QB and a Superbowl MVP stated many times the offensive scheme didn't work!!
Maybe the best break down of a player ever. Earned a sub. And as a Panther fan I am not excited to draft a QB from a school where every QB from there in history, is a bust.
If this continues, the Bears will set an NFL record, not the one to be proud of. The offensive line will allow the most QB sacks in a season, which the Eagles currently hold at 104.
A couple of things from “the bad” section. While scrambling you said he put his eyes down but in a press conference darnell Mooney said that the bears never practiced scrambled drills once all season. Matt nagy is one of the worst head coaches in the history of the nfl. I don’t think the team around him will matter a whole bunch for this season. We have players who are decent and know how to get open. No big names but players who can play. Our line is upgraded from last year and as long as our wr’s are giving more effort than allen robinson did that group is better. Plus our coaches actually know what they’re doing now so that’s a huge bonus. Really enjoyed the video! Fields def has some things to work on but some of his flaws were just bad coaching and the new staff is gonna fix that right up
You need to make a video on Terry Mclaurin. He's the most "what more can I do" receiver in the nfl. In 2021, he didn't drop a single deep pass on 32 deep targets. With 11 deep catches, and 7 of them being contested (best in the nfl) the other 20 some deep attempts were bad passes. This year might be a huge year for him considering carson was 6th in deep throw accuracy.
weak end to crash in for a pitch or sneak... im glad someone else noticed despite a lack of plays fields still ran over 400 yards... vick had support but running a 50/50 offense doesn't look great in stats... i think the future is running everyback 1/4, qb hb wr x
I compare the Justin and Matt Nagy situstion to the Jim boylen and bulls he almost ran our team into the ground we finally got a good coach had one more losing season and was in the playoffs the next year after that gotta wait and give it timr
How can you evaluate 2022 Justin Fields with 2021 play tape. New GM, Coaching staff, went back to a 4 - 3 defense. The only thing your showing is why everybody got fired, not Fields ability
Bro he’s literally in his 2nd year and has only played about 16 games as a starter. People need to chill out. They act as if the bears roster is stacked
None of this was a surprise to bears fans. Hence why we have a new coach/staff/GM. Nagy knew he was headed out the door. “Breaking promises” is a bit premature and quite frankly absurd. Especially after 1 season.
In hindsight, does Justin Fields have the Jalen Hurts-itis? Uber talented athletes who flash brilliance but are too inconsistent to dice up a defense with precision? It's not necessarily a knock, as much as it is a limiting factor in their game.
Justin Fields was the #7 all rushing yards leader this season. They really miss used he's special skill set because they're very bad at adjusting even they don't have a offensive or wide receivers. Justin Fields is their whole offense
People just need to approach this situation with alot of patience. I might get alot of flack for this, but this is ostensibly Fields' 'first' season. Last season was a lost season, with Fields not even working with the 1's in camp and running an offense that everyone knew would be gone come season's end. At the very least he has now gotten a full camp as the starter, running a Shanahan style offense that is more suited to his game. I'm looking to see more from him this year, while being more critical of his game as well now that he's had more time. Even still, the goal is just to keep him alive. Next year will be the make or break year, when he's had more than a season in the offense and the team is able to use the cap to support him. What he looks like then will probably be what he 'is', so to speak.
Imagine Justin Fields with da 49ers right now 🤦🏾♂️ they would’ve had a legit change to win da super bowl bro this season Fields is literally da more polished version of Trey Lance passing wise while having da twitchiness of Russell Wilson and Kyler Murray 💯
packers vs bears Mooney forshadowed the route and douglas literally reacts off it nothing to do with his eyes... also you don't know if Mooney had the route options to go deep or inside... instead you see him cut way too easily way too rounded and he even starts runnign towards douglas way before he even cuts in....
Bears fan here: I want to build a trebuchet and send the ENTIRE McCaskey family into Lake Michigan after the whole Trubisky situation. They did him dirty, they're doing Fields dirty, and the fans still come because we love the Bears.
My 1st time seeing your analysis & break down of Justin field's Good & bad You're damn good man I guess I'll be looking for some Jordan love & other players if you do that. Go pack Go
I’m not a big believer in Fields, Bears haven’t done enough to really develop him either. I think he’ll be better than Lance though who is an absolute bust.
I’d also add that his sliding was bad. He tended to slide while sitting up and every time I had to cringe because I knew at some point he was gonna get licked and that he did.
That's contingent on the wideouts being open, of which the bears do not possess the necessary talent for that to happen. So you must rely on your o'line to provide enough time for them to BECOME open. Which if we haven't figured out yet, isn't going to happen.
Justin doesnt even have a full year on his belt, so when people say "after 1 year", im always left confused. when 90% of the folks talking about the Bears, talk about them being the worst team in the NFL, even tho they havent seen all the Bears "no name starters" play 1 single full game, im left even more confused. btw, folks keep trying to pump up Trubisky, as if he is some future HOF, that Nagy ruined, is hilarious. Trubisky barely beat out the Steelers rookie QB. Nagy sucked, but i dont think Trubisky was ever a 1st rd talent. Nagy had to work with Trubisky, even tho he was never his QB of choice to begin with
I'm not saying fields is a star. I'm not saying tribusky would have been a star.but if u wanna see a what franchise qb looks like without line. Go watch the superbowl of 21' bucs vs cheifs..
I love how the first sack shown is fields holding on to the ball for like 5 seconds in the pocket. I'm so sick of the Nagy hate. How can bears fans say Nagy is the worst and pace is the worst when they were basically .500. either Nagy elevated the team to .500 with a subpar roster. Or the roster was good enough to elevate Nagy to .500. or they were both mediocre. Those are the only 3 options. You can't be like fields is going to be so much better with out Nagy, and poles inherited an awful roster and couldn't do anything. Those are contradicting ideas
Well the thing is, the roster under Pace WASNT terrible in any way shape or form. That’s overblown by people. We had a decent Oline(sometimes mediocre), a good RB, a promising TE, and two very good WRs in Mooney and Robinson. Not to mention a good defense with guys like Mack, Quinn, Hicks, Goldman, Nichols, Johnson, and Jackson. The biggest issue was the play calling and decisions by Nagy with his personnel. U can’t fit square pegs in round holes and that’s what Nagy tried to do. He tried to force Fields(and Trubisky for that matter) to be pocket passers only behind Olines that couldn’t hold up for as long as they needed to read the field. He rarely got them on the move and he completely deviated from the new standard in the NFL which is the play action pass. For example, last year Fields was one of the best passers in the league on designed roll outs and using play action but in both categories we ran them the least in the league last year. I don’t think the personnel was ever the issue, I think this year will show that. By no means do I think we’ll be good, but Fields is gonna show major improvements(based on training camp and preseason he’s already showing a bunch with his timing, footwork, and ability to read the defense and adjust at the line of scrimmage) in this offense with an OC that’s building an offense around his skill set instead of forcing him to be a QB he isn’t. Remember, Nagy’s offense last year was built for QBs like Dalton which is why when he came in the game, the offense ran smoother. It wasn’t built for the talents Fields has. That changes this year.
well that first sack all his wr were covered and were only six yards out when the pocket collapsed and nagy that game decided not to try to run the ball and decided hey lets throw the ball behind a line that would get lit up by a high school football team watch the game before sounding stupid
its funny cuz the same people making excuses for Fields are the same ones that can magically evaluate Lance and call him a bust when he only played 2 full games in the NFL yet yall have plenty of information to evaluate Fields but somehow can't.
LOL it's not that impossible: He's looking awfully "bust-like". LOL at the "insurance plan" excuses. Yup, nothing is Fields' fault. The coaches fumbled the ball and threw those interceptions.
I think Fields has a shot to be very good or great. But the sympathy parade for him is absolutely ridiculous. Everyone acts like he’s perfect and he’s playing with a bunch of 8th graders. Bears have their issues but they made the playoffs in 2020. He could have gone to a much worse situation. Like Jags or Jets.
Fields is bad. He’ll be out of the NFL by 2025. If he got drafted by another team things probably would have worked out better for him. Chicago is where QBs go to die.
Chicago is where all NFL players go to die. This team is cheap. Even when they try to spend money, they spend it on the wrong players, or players who aren't compatible within whatever they're trying to run. If you run specific systems, shouldn't you be bringing in players who are best capable of running those specific systems, rather than the best available talent of whatever system they happen to have come up in? I mean....this is why i don't like system players. Especially system players the Bears tend to bring in. They NEVER match up, nor mesh. I prefer players be capable of making all plays. Defenses have to learn different offensive schemes. Why aren't offenses capable of running different offenses? Why can't players ad lib today, the way they used to? Imagination and creativity go out the window once a single person is named the creator of a particular offense, defense, or special teams, and coaches are told they will adapt to that specific system, or player. Waterboy coach concept. Just intimidate them a little...they'll forget how to create new plays, how to ad lib in games, and the same teams will forever be the best. After all, they created the systems the rest of the league is copycatting off of. To be clear, i have nothing against system, nor hybrid teams.....but some of the best music i've ever heard were mashups of different styles of music. Sports... is like music....athletes just have to hear the same tune/beats at the same time and act in unison. Hybrid teams are new sheets of music being written with old chords but always evolve into something new.
How many games do the Bears win in 2022?
4 or 5.
6 wins

Watching this after him running 174yds and killing me in fantasy
I love the analysis of this channel. I just learn so much!
Been waiting all week for this
Just let me say that I believe that Justin is special and all we need is time to develope him and continue to build our O-line and warmth the desire players we've drafted and by next season we will get a he'll of better over this season and the next we will be getting way better seriously!!!
As a bears fan from the city this was accurate af
BRO FINALLY CAME IN CLUTCH
Fix the offensive system and offensive play calling, it fixes a lot of these issues and puts the pressure on the players ability to buy into the philosophy.
Interesting to watch this now, in March 2023 after the Bears traded down their #1 overall--because of course they sucked just as much or more through the 2022 season--and now have a shit ton of draft picks, and DJ Moore. So after two full seasons, the Chicago front office appears to have finally realized that they probably should get some help for their high-profile, young qb. Hopefully for his sake, two full seasons of complete failure and getting his ass destroyed by opposing defenses hasn't wrecked Fields for good. If he never lives up to his potential, I think as much blame has to be put on the organization as on Fields himself. It reminds me od Alex Smith: dude finally became a pro-bowler after he was all beat up at the end of his career because, after years of terrible teams and dozens of coaches in SF, he eventually played on a competent team led by Andy Reid who knew how to make the most of his talents. And then, of course, he had the continued bad luck to lose his job to the best qb in a generation, get traded to another incompetent team, and have his his leg broken so bad that he almost have to have it amputated. Smith might have been a great qb instead of a guy who had to play his ass off in the latter part of his career to prove he wasn't a bust in the early part. I hope Fields gets a fairer shot to succeed than Smith ever did.
People just think you can turn over a roster in a year when you have no top picks and no cap space. Smh
You can't "turn over a roster in a year" under those conditions. But lack of picks and lack of cap space are the result of front-office decisions. And then once they were in that situation, they didn't even really try to make the offense any better. They're risking a serious injury against Fields, which is utter malpractice.
@@kqatsi what big move should they have made that they didn't?
It's not that they can't turn over a team in one year. I agree with you.
The problem I have is that this org has ZERO ability to turn a team over, period!
Give the Bears five years to put together a great team, and they will win six games. Then we will be told to wait another five years.
Wake me up when the McCaskeys actually put together a consistently good team, not just a one-hit wonder like 2018 or 2001.
I'm not getting on you, mind you. It's just that this org has no ability to put together a good team. None.
@@kqatsi yeah a front office that was fired. Again this new front office didn't have much to work with.
Honestly, this video changes my perspective on JF. I mean, I've always heard the coaching staff that drafted him was a total dumpster fire so it shouldn't be a surprise. I'm not a Bears fan but I hope his talent isn't wasted because he could be a lot of fun to watch based on what I'm seeing here
Damn will the rest of the world just relax!!! Bears fans know what's up.... we ain't new to this shit!! If he's the one......HE'S THE ONE. If not we'll move on soon enough and get back on the QB carousel. It's the life of a Bears fan. We'll be ahight!!
🐻⬇️
He said what he said... 🐻⬇
Enjoyed this, was sad to see Fields and Haskins go to such terribly ran franchises. Hope they can get it together.
He’s a tough kid, I’m sure he understands. He likes the challenge. I believe.
🎯 Justin Fields last 5 games last year: Top 3 Deep Passer in NFL, League leading 91.0 outside the pocket, Most 20+ yard runs in the league, Top 5 in W.A.R. with next to nothing. NUFF SAID
And still sucked.
@@tmovchan4021 So you not looking at Getzy?
@@tmovchan4021 Justin is Playing against The Opps and he's playing against his weak @$$ Team.
I know everyone bags on the talent of the o-line, but have we really seen how good they can be since they had the same coaching that had a chance of ruining Fields.
I agree 100% that is isn't fair to evaluate Fields based on last year, and that goes for any other talent on that roster! One thing missed in this is that Fields took ZERO snaps with the Ones in training camp - he was relegated to holding a clipboard until tossed into the fire during the Cleveland game! Add in a ridiculous game plan based on the talent and he was setup for failure. His detractors are quick to point out his slow reads without acknowledging that he had not be coached effectively, was playing with what appeared to be sub par talent, and had to deal with horrific play calling!!! Hell Nagy went through 4 different QB and a Superbowl MVP stated many times the offensive scheme didn't work!!
Excellent video and very thoughtful analysis
I've subscribed..
Maybe the best break down of a player ever. Earned a sub. And as a Panther fan I am not excited to draft a QB from a school where every QB from there in history, is a bust.
lots of good points made, its tough being a rookie qb, watch how he does this year
Is there going to be a part 2 for the 2022 season? Would love to see & hear your take. Love your content.
just found your content. It's incredible. Good stuff.
If this continues, the Bears will set an NFL record, not the one to be proud of. The offensive line will allow the most QB sacks in a season, which the Eagles currently hold at 104.
I'm hoping this season you can evaluate him much better or this past 2022-23 season of what he's dealt with.
A couple of things from “the bad” section. While scrambling you said he put his eyes down but in a press conference darnell Mooney said that the bears never practiced scrambled drills once all season. Matt nagy is one of the worst head coaches in the history of the nfl.
I don’t think the team around him will matter a whole bunch for this season. We have players who are decent and know how to get open. No big names but players who can play. Our line is upgraded from last year and as long as our wr’s are giving more effort than allen robinson did that group is better. Plus our coaches actually know what they’re doing now so that’s a huge bonus. Really enjoyed the video! Fields def has some things to work on but some of his flaws were just bad coaching and the new staff is gonna fix that right up
You need to make a video on Terry Mclaurin. He's the most "what more can I do" receiver in the nfl. In 2021, he didn't drop a single deep pass on 32 deep targets. With 11 deep catches, and 7 of them being contested (best in the nfl) the other 20 some deep attempts were bad passes. This year might be a huge year for him considering carson was 6th in deep throw accuracy.
Have wanted to for 2 seasons - just never matched the schedule. That and the commanders being a boring team.
They gonna change your mind this year🙏🏾7 wins with a backup qb man people over look that like crazy
@@ThinkingFootball I fw your content heavy bro🔥
Thanks for making this video. I remember asking you for this!
Great video! I totally agree with you here.
Hard to blame him for being slow at processing defenses, When it’s obvious he wasn’t coached at all
7:23 #83 was open deep. Sometimes there's more than one good read you can make on a play, but he really should have gone over the top.
Nah he wasn’t open till the safety saw he wasn’t throwing too him
Seen how under pressure Justin Fields was ? Bruh, The whole 49ers defense chasing him like pack of wolves . Don’t let slow-mo replay fool you.
Six weeks in and they are trying to force Fields into the pocket passer role. It is going poorly to say the least.
Excellent analysis. Instant subscribe.
I think on offense I can’t think of a worse team on paper than the Bears.The organization didn’t give Fields much help.
We need a new Justin Fields video dawg you the best...
2023 season in September and this is oh so relevant.
Bears have been a closeted Rugby Team for 110 years.
Rugby is far more enjoyable to watch than the last 2 years of Bears Football
weak end to crash in for a pitch or sneak... im glad someone else noticed despite a lack of plays fields still ran over 400 yards... vick had support but running a 50/50 offense doesn't look great in stats... i think the future is running everyback 1/4, qb hb wr x
Great video. Well researched and edited.
It’s pretty clear the organization doesn’t care about building a championship team
It's been this way for 30 years.
Friendly reminder as a bengals fan since the 90s. Just because the players you need are available doesn’t mean they’re available for you to sign🤷🏾♂️
I don't think the Bears will have a problem signing some big names this off-season
I compare the Justin and Matt Nagy situstion to the Jim boylen and bulls he almost ran our team into the ground we finally got a good coach had one more losing season and was in the playoffs the next year after that gotta wait and give it timr
Everyone to blame for this were all fired back in January-February.
Except the McCaskeys...
How can you evaluate 2022 Justin Fields with 2021 play tape. New GM, Coaching staff, went back to a 4 - 3 defense. The only thing your showing is why everybody got fired, not Fields ability
Bro he’s literally in his 2nd year and has only played about 16 games as a starter. People need to chill out. They act as if the bears roster is stacked
None of this was a surprise to bears fans. Hence why we have a new coach/staff/GM. Nagy knew he was headed out the door. “Breaking promises” is a bit premature and quite frankly absurd. Especially after 1 season.
In hindsight, does Justin Fields have the Jalen Hurts-itis? Uber talented athletes who flash brilliance but are too inconsistent to dice up a defense with precision? It's not necessarily a knock, as much as it is a limiting factor in their game.
the funny thing is people will still say he can't throw
Update?
Justin Fields was the #7 all rushing yards leader this season. They really miss used he's special skill set because they're very bad at adjusting even they don't have a offensive or wide receivers. Justin Fields is their whole offense
Apparently Nagy knows his shit. Thinking it’s the players
You thought that was bad . Hold my beer bears getting rid of a offensive lineman and their no.1 receiver
People just need to approach this situation with alot of patience. I might get alot of flack for this, but this is ostensibly Fields' 'first' season. Last season was a lost season, with Fields not even working with the 1's in camp and running an offense that everyone knew would be gone come season's end. At the very least he has now gotten a full camp as the starter, running a Shanahan style offense that is more suited to his game. I'm looking to see more from him this year, while being more critical of his game as well now that he's had more time. Even still, the goal is just to keep him alive. Next year will be the make or break year, when he's had more than a season in the offense and the team is able to use the cap to support him. What he looks like then will probably be what he 'is', so to speak.
It's nice to see a franchise as effed up as Jacksonville.
I did not want to see Fields go to the bears his career may get ruin there.
Nothing like helping a Young quarterback by letting his best receiver leave, plus when was the last time the bears had a tight end? Talking about Greg
I seriously don’t understand why Tua isn’t given this level of understanding and patience
Players know, and his teammates know Tua doesn't have it.
Tua doesnt have the talent like Fields does
Imagine Justin Fields with da 49ers right now 🤦🏾♂️ they would’ve had a legit change to win da super bowl bro this season Fields is literally da more polished version of Trey Lance passing wise while having da twitchiness of Russell Wilson and Kyler Murray 💯
Nah Shanny knows he isn’t very good lol. There’s a reason a ton of QB needy teams passed on him.
masterful production.. SUB!!!
packers vs bears Mooney forshadowed the route and douglas literally reacts off it nothing to do with his eyes... also you don't know if Mooney had the route options to go deep or inside... instead you see him cut way too easily way too rounded and he even starts runnign towards douglas way before he even cuts in....
It's illegal for the Bears and Jets to have a good QB.
Bears fan here: I want to build a trebuchet and send the ENTIRE McCaskey family into Lake Michigan after the whole Trubisky situation. They did him dirty, they're doing Fields dirty, and the fans still come because we love the Bears.
Man Justin Fields gets every possible excuse made for him.
here in week 11... :DDDD
My 1st time seeing your analysis & break down of Justin field's Good & bad You're damn good man I guess I'll be looking for some Jordan love & other players if you do that. Go pack Go
Do a video on Tua!
I’m not a big believer in Fields, Bears haven’t done enough to really develop him either. I think he’ll be better than Lance though who is an absolute bust.
I’d also add that his sliding was bad. He tended to slide while sitting up and every time I had to cringe because I knew at some point he was gonna get licked and that he did.
I predict the Bears will go 0-17 this season and JF gets a season ending injury!
great video
Lmfaoo Fields is not reading the defense too “slow” he’s reading it too fast
My main take away:
3:38 22yd line...that man is dead
Fields needs to get the ball out of there hand. That’s some of the problem
That's contingent on the wideouts being open, of which the bears do not possess the necessary talent for that to happen. So you must rely on your o'line to provide enough time for them to BECOME open. Which if we haven't figured out yet, isn't going to happen.
Give it time
Dont worry he will be traded and chicago will have there new QB1 in two years
Lmao you serious?
Yep. I can see this happening. These guys have no idea.
Justin doesnt even have a full year on his belt, so when people say "after 1 year", im always left confused. when 90% of the folks talking about the Bears, talk about them being the worst team in the NFL, even tho they havent seen all the Bears "no name starters" play 1 single full game, im left even more confused. btw, folks keep trying to pump up Trubisky, as if he is some future HOF, that Nagy ruined, is hilarious. Trubisky barely beat out the Steelers rookie QB. Nagy sucked, but i dont think Trubisky was ever a 1st rd talent. Nagy had to work with Trubisky, even tho he was never his QB of choice to begin with
Does that need to be said? Was pretty obvious
i know peters sucked for most of this video, but he fucking killed bro at 3:40
Fields has no participation skills & holds the ball. Wanted the Lions to draft him, now glad we didn't..
Play calling last year .. not this year
Maybe. But its possible to evaluate Nagy.
No Davis Mills vídeo?
Don't have time before the season sadly - Mac next week though
I'm not saying fields is a star. I'm not saying tribusky would have been a star.but if u wanna see a what franchise qb looks like without line. Go watch the superbowl of 21' bucs vs cheifs..
I love how the first sack shown is fields holding on to the ball for like 5 seconds in the pocket. I'm so sick of the Nagy hate. How can bears fans say Nagy is the worst and pace is the worst when they were basically .500. either Nagy elevated the team to .500 with a subpar roster. Or the roster was good enough to elevate Nagy to .500. or they were both mediocre. Those are the only 3 options. You can't be like fields is going to be so much better with out Nagy, and poles inherited an awful roster and couldn't do anything. Those are contradicting ideas
Well the thing is, the roster under Pace WASNT terrible in any way shape or form. That’s overblown by people. We had a decent Oline(sometimes mediocre), a good RB, a promising TE, and two very good WRs in Mooney and Robinson. Not to mention a good defense with guys like Mack, Quinn, Hicks, Goldman, Nichols, Johnson, and Jackson. The biggest issue was the play calling and decisions by Nagy with his personnel. U can’t fit square pegs in round holes and that’s what Nagy tried to do. He tried to force Fields(and Trubisky for that matter) to be pocket passers only behind Olines that couldn’t hold up for as long as they needed to read the field. He rarely got them on the move and he completely deviated from the new standard in the NFL which is the play action pass. For example, last year Fields was one of the best passers in the league on designed roll outs and using play action but in both categories we ran them the least in the league last year. I don’t think the personnel was ever the issue, I think this year will show that. By no means do I think we’ll be good, but Fields is gonna show major improvements(based on training camp and preseason he’s already showing a bunch with his timing, footwork, and ability to read the defense and adjust at the line of scrimmage) in this offense with an OC that’s building an offense around his skill set instead of forcing him to be a QB he isn’t. Remember, Nagy’s offense last year was built for QBs like Dalton which is why when he came in the game, the offense ran smoother. It wasn’t built for the talents Fields has. That changes this year.
Maybe Nagy sucks and Fields sucks too....
well that first sack all his wr were covered and were only six yards out when the pocket collapsed and nagy that game decided not to try to run the ball and decided hey lets throw the ball behind a line that would get lit up by a high school football team watch the game before sounding stupid
There is a reason why Justin is still there and basically everyone else is gone.
Yeah... pure disillusion.
its funny cuz the same people making excuses for Fields are the same ones that can magically evaluate Lance and call him a bust when he only played 2 full games in the NFL yet yall have plenty of information to evaluate Fields but somehow can't.
Facts
LOL it's not that impossible: He's looking awfully "bust-like". LOL at the "insurance plan" excuses. Yup, nothing is Fields' fault. The coaches fumbled the ball and threw those interceptions.
I think Fields has a shot to be very good or great. But the sympathy parade for him is absolutely ridiculous. Everyone acts like he’s perfect and he’s playing with a bunch of 8th graders. Bears have their issues but they made the playoffs in 2020. He could have gone to a much worse situation. Like Jags or Jets.
You get an actual bunch of eighth graders, and they would probably play better than the so called pros the Bears have now!
Fields is bad. He’ll be out of the NFL by 2025. If he got drafted by another team things probably would have worked out better for him. Chicago is where QBs go to die.
Chicago is where all NFL players go to die. This team is cheap. Even when they try to spend money, they spend it on the wrong players, or players who aren't compatible within whatever they're trying to run.
If you run specific systems, shouldn't you be bringing in players who are best capable of running those specific systems, rather than the best available talent of whatever system they happen to have come up in? I mean....this is why i don't like system players. Especially system players the Bears tend to bring in. They NEVER match up, nor mesh.
I prefer players be capable of making all plays. Defenses have to learn different offensive schemes. Why aren't offenses capable of running different offenses? Why can't players ad lib today, the way they used to? Imagination and creativity go out the window once a single person is named the creator of a particular offense, defense, or special teams, and coaches are told they will adapt to that specific system, or player.
Waterboy coach concept. Just intimidate them a little...they'll forget how to create new plays, how to ad lib in games, and the same teams will forever be the best. After all, they created the systems the rest of the league is copycatting off of.
To be clear, i have nothing against system, nor hybrid teams.....but some of the best music i've ever heard were mashups of different styles of music. Sports... is like music....athletes just have to hear the same tune/beats at the same time and act in unison. Hybrid teams are new sheets of music being written with old chords but always evolve into something new.
The excuses for Fields are endless. Never seen anything like this for any other player. Huge hypejob.
