Poles class act. Dude is legit leader material. Future team President down the road. Genuine guy.
Agree 100%
Poles is an amazing GM. Honest, dedicated and a very hard worker. We are blessed to have him . Bear down!
I went to high school with him! Awesome to see someone from Canandaigua have such success
@@cmk3927 for real what was he like in school ?
Fields is better than Williams you guys are desperate. Williams isn’t as good a runner as fields or thrower what is going on?????
LOVE Ryan Poles, as a lifelong Bears fan I finally feel like we got the right GM and he's getting us out of DECADES of poverty franchise status. I want to see us beat the Packers.
All these other GM's and coaches all worried about beating the Packers. We need to simply worry about winning a SB.
Agree with you, Poles so far is doing a great job. I am not a Bears fan (Seahawks are my team) but I am excited for what this could mean for Chicago. Folks calling Caleb a bust already are just trolling. Caleb has all the potential, but has usual it will come down to how good the coaching is, how he is developed, how the team is built by the GM, what sort of offense they run, how willing the ownership/management/fan base are with waiting to see him develop (like Josh Allen did), and as always how good the defense is. The feeling of hope and promise in CHI come this August/Sept I am willing to bet is going to be pretty incredible.
15 -2 would work
For Bears fans, I hope you guys have a season like the recent Lions. Dan Campbell brought change and hope to that team. I hope you guys can get the same mojo going.
I will take Ryan Poles over the "smart guy" Ryan Pace every day of the week. He has the experience, smarts and patient process to bring my Bears back to a championship team.
It's been fun watching Poles grow up in his GM spot. Claypool really let him down, so he comes right back with Allen. Fields ran out of time, he comes back with Caleb. Montgomery wants to go to Detroit, comes back with Swift. No one has seen a trade like the one with Carolina since Dallas wrecked Minnesota. Keep swinging for the fences big boy.
The good thing about Poles is that he’s not afraid to cut bait on players he made mistakes on, and look to find other solutions, rather then doubling down hoping that it will work out somehow
I have a feeling Ryan Poles will be with the bears for a long time.
Glad Poles is my GM
So glad we have Poles as gm. 🐻 down!
King Poles 🤴🏿. We're excited for the future.
Keep building! We're with you, brudda.
👊🏽🐻⬇️
Great use of emojis!
What's the brudda reference?
@@cadfish11lol..want to hear what he has to say..lol
Man I love poles wish he was myGM
He does his job exactly how I play Madden franchise mode, lol. I wonder if him being one of the younger GM's in the league has something to do with that
What team are you a fan of?
@@vincedidiana5781 BEARS LMFAO
What a contrast between Ryan's. Pace was always hiding and being Mr. Top-secret and when Pace spoke it was always nothing crap. Where Poles is out there and open as a GM can be without giving away stuff, and he's willing to talk and be honest. I LOVE it.
That comes from his confidence and lack of indecision. Pace on the other hand... lacked confidence, full of indecision, and my god he loved to burn draft picks.
eww, I almost (almost) forgot about that, Pace giving a way soooo many draft picks to trade up over the years. And rarely, if ever, did those decisions pay off in a good way.@@jaredsilvers2782
Been a Bears fan since I was 6 in the 80’s…especially with the way the team has been run the last twenty years…from Warren to Poles it is being ran differently than before. Things are changing for the better. Be patient. BEAR DOWN!
Every time I hear this man talk I am so confused how we managed to land him as GM. Bear down baby.
I heard him say he was pissed off by RG3's comments because he was brought in to "break the cycle, which is what we did in KC." That damn near made me weep. I believe in him
I guess a broken clock is still right twice a day
Miracle
@@spjr99 Once a decade and a half maybe
@@spjr99 I was going to say that, but since you did, I'll go with a blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes.
Big Pole Poles!!!
Winning heals all.
I had my doubts after claypool but poles is cooking with gas, he nice af
Great interview gotta update the photo rich bro looking fit now
In a span of a year he’s gotten 2 #1 WRs, good young Tackle, Star pass rusher, solid RB, now it’s all on Caleb.
Calib will suck
@@thomasmelone1028you don’t know ball
Great interview!
Class dude. Glad he is my teams gm
Ryan Poles: [from OL] Chicago Bears practice squad > [to] Chicago Bears elite GM. It came full circle. Chicago loves Ryan Poles 🧡🐻⬇️
GOATED Poles
In Poles I Trust….
Bears getting better
Poles seems like a good dude. Like him
Bears are coming to take the North
if they get a stud at 9 along with caleb at 1 i’d be surprised if they sucked
future super bowl champs in the next 3 years
The Packers still own you Bears
@@arthuresau1129 Not for long! 🤣🤣
@@anon21341Bears are going to the SB with a rookie QB. Defense will be top 5 at minimum (#1 last 6 weeks of the 2023 season). They’re set to win NOW
Lol that's a nice way of him saying Fields is trash in the pocket. So happy we have a GM that knows what to look for
Definitely very diplomatic, which I appreciate, though he def avoided any specific criticisms or spelling out why the extra year wasn't enough to convince them.
A lot to like, but still some questions. Will the safety definitely play better than Jackson? Philly was a mess so hopefully he will. Glad they have more options at center, but still nobody amazing there. Sweat alone probably isn't enough to have the pass rush you need. Keenan only a one year deal, so you may wanna draft a top WR..but at the same time that could be the pick to bolster the OL or DL (and or trade back go do so). So that 9 pick is really interesting.
To add salt to the wounds of all Panthers fans. When Scott Fitterer (former panthers GM) was hired, Ryan Poles was the only other finalist for the job💀 yall could have had him.
Poles fleecing the Panthers in that trade, last year was karma for Carolina passing on him😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣 Didn’t even know that. That is gold. Bear tf down!!!!
7:44 I can see the Ryan Gosling comparison
The Bears, for once are the talk of the NFL for positive reasons now, and it WILL continue this 2024 season when the Bears are unstoppable. It’s about to get crazy if Caleb actually is close to being on Mahomes level. I believe he can have a bigger season than Stroud .. Maybe the best rookie season ever for a QB. The world is in for a huge surprise BEAR TF DOWNNN 🐻⬇️
As a Bears fan, I think he's the best GM the Bears have had in a long time. If he gets the Williams pick correct, the Bears are going to be a contender for years to come.
Finally!
A Bears GM making a decision at the #1 position. Time will tell if it's the right one. IMHO, Justin just didn't have that "it" factor. I wish Justin all the best in Pittsburg.
If/when the Bears select Caleb this draft, I hope Caleb will keep the media attention on the field and be humble off the field.
I love Ryan Poles. He is the reason I will still keep up with the Bears but also lost me as a fan of the Bears. But the Bears will be a good to great organization under him. I really dont see how Caleb can fail withthe way this team is built.
He will fail big time because he is overrated
Ryan Poles honest analysis of the JF process!
Yes and no. I respect it, because it does nobody good to throw criticism out there now, but he probably could have gotten more detailed on why Fields didn't do enough to keep the job. Though we can probably all guess some of it.
King Poles!!!🐻👇
I thought it was interesting when Caleb walked out and looked in the direction of one of the Bears new wide receivers and then looked up into the stands and walked right past that wide receiver
😂 You do know they know each other right 😂
You forgot the part where they dapped each other up 😂
Caleb said he has known Allen for 1 year now and thier good friends
That didn't happen bud.
Bear down baby!
As a lifetime Bear fan I am reluctant to eat the cornbread... but I am salivating.
Come and take a seat and eat up the cornbread is elite.
Caleb Williams better deliver week 1 if not Gm is fired and the Justin’s fields trade will be haunting them for the longest!
Naw. Ryan Pace trading up one spot for Mitch in 2017 over mahomes and watson will haunt us forever.
Finally someone with a brain on this chat
😂😂😂 nah first drive TD or he's a bust 😂😂
IN POLES WE TRUST
I wonder why what they’re doing with the ninth pick is more “intriguing” than the first pick… (Caleb is a bear easy)
In poles we trust
Can’t wait to watch my bears this year
THATS MY GM 😭‼️
Nice of Rich to have Brad Holmes child on
Seems to me the media motivating them don't forget Maye.
He's not it 😂
He is THE MAN
Trust Ryan Poles
8:15 so funny
We'll have to see about Poles, he has a better idea about cap than Pace, imo
Pretty sure that's just a fact at this point
Pace was super aggressive, which I don’t mind. The problem is if you’re that super aggressive, you have to hit on most of your moves, if not all. Leaves little room for error and unfortunately, he didn’t hit enough
@@vincedidiana5781if he had picked Watson or Mahomes we would’ve probably won a superbowl in 2018. Huge swing and miss on trubisky
@@Eon320Exactly my point. Aggressive in trading for Mack because he thought Trubisky would be good. We all know how wrong he was!
Grass ain’t always greener
I hope so, but I'm not new to this
It's not always.. but sometimes it is
The grass wasn't green though.
If i ever meet rich eisen im 100% calling him ryan goslong 😂😂😂😂
King Poles looking good lost some weight!
How many before Poles have come up with a catch phrase then at the end of year 3 are gone !!!
I am laughing my backside off at that
Catch phase - I’m going to take the north and never give it back. 😂😂😂
Sounds freaking corny 😂😂😂😂
Lay off the emojis champ you're embarrassing yourself on the internet again.
In poles we trust!
rp doing it
In Poles we trust 🐻⬇️😎
Just asking Ryan, did you stand a couple 6’3” lineman in front of him when he threw. He’s gonna see a lot of that in the NFL.
More like 6'8"
And Caleb is less than an inch shorter than Patrick Mahomes.
"The official measurement at the NFL combine came out Saturday when quarterbacks worked out without Williams and he is 6-foot-1 1/8, 214 pounds with a hand size 9 3/4 inches."
*From sports illustrated
His hands are 1/2 inch bigger than Mahomes. Ball security is not a risk like Pickett or something. And he's 11 pounds lighter than Mahomes was. Their not identical, but they're definitely not very different. I'd say neither will have a problem looking over linemen.
If I only had a nickel for every QB projected to be the next Brady or Mahomes that busted I’d be rich.
@@timnewton9888 liberally, you would have like 20 cents a year. I don't know if I would consider that being rich.
Stop making sense
GO BEARS 🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙🧡
Jordan Love vs Caleb Williams, future NFC North rivalry? 🤔
As a Bears fan I see this goes up in flames. Williams is a chump primadona and you had a QB that is an amazing athlete that the fanbase and locker room loved. Fields does things Williams can't.
Fields can't throw. Get over it
I love Fields and I am a believer in intangibles (like how the locker room loves their leader). But recently I started looking at this in a different light. If I'm the Bears GM I could look at the team as it is and say, "Minus the qb, how many wins should this team get?" Let's say I decide the Bears are at 10 wins (considering serviceable qb play). Now - if I add Justin Fields to the team how many more, or fewer, games do they win? When you look at a CJ Stroud or a Patrick Mahomes, they are worth at least 3 wins, probably more. Baker Mayfield, to me, is even (and I like Baker). Maybe he'll win a game here or there but drop Baker on a 10 win Bears team and he probably gets them 10 wins. I feel somewhat the same about Justin. I believe Justin will actually lose a game or two, but he will probably make up for it and win a game or two so, again, it's a 10 win team. BUT - there is a chance Justin could lose a game or two and not make it up - meaning there is a chance Justin makes your 10 win team a 9 or 8 win team. All of that to say - if the Bears believe that Caleb can, within 2 or 3 years, add 2 or 3 wins to the Bears then they have absolutely no choice: they've got to go get Caleb.
100% correct
🎉🎉
🐻⬇️💪
Why did they trade him prior to the draft? There will be QB desperate teams at the after the draft. Who thinks the Steelers will trade fields for more than they got from Chicago.
Poles has integrity. He said he'd do right by JF so he did
Mike Tomlin wanted Fields. They aren’t trading him considering Russ is a 1 year rental
@@rickDArula they'll drop him within 3 years bc he's a bum.
@@sumyungchung yeah cuz you can tell the future sumyungchink?
🐻⬇️🐻⬇️🐻⬇️
That Bryce Young move last year got everyone fired on the coaching staff, while everyone on the Texas got a pay raise....Hope they got it right....even though he couldn't beat a team over .500 they think they got it right...OK!
They beat Detroit.
Yea lets bring in a zesty pre Madonna Qb, bears done !!!
hopefully he becomes chicago tuff!!!
Better be right
Poles a liar he never got Justin help until last year DJ
Cry about it.
@jaredsilvers2782 what goofy
I’m going to laugh if there is a big twist and he takes someone like Daniels who’s a bust waiting to happen😂
Why would he take a QB who obviously isn't as good of a prospect as Jayden Daniels. This is the guy who pushed for the Mahomes trade up not the Zach Wilson pick.
@@josephpayton7522wait you think Caleb isn’t better than Jayden?💀
@@kraftydk3892 nah. I was just messing with you based on your comment. Of course the pick is Caleb. He's the best prospect since John Elway.
@@josephpayton7522oof don’t know about all that😭
@@kraftydk3892 Andrew luck is the usual exception. The NFL always ranks the prospects based on some sorta metrics. Who knows? But it's what has Bryce as a better prospect than Stroud. Which is dumb now but we're just talking prospects. The prospect rating for Luck was 93 which is elite. Good score. Caleb Williams has a 96. I don't know why but he's ranked as a better prospect. Talk to the NFL not me. We'll see what Caleb actually is when he plays in the NFL just like we saw with Bryce, Stroud, and Luck.
Justin was 8-26 or something , ya , he had to go period.
You can’t really be serious counting the first 2 years, smarten up
@@thomasmelone1028 Ok lets just count last year when he was a bottom 5 passer in nearly ever category, and the worst 4th quarter passer in the entire NFL.
Bears are gonna ruin Caleb. Just wait. 😂
Small Pole Poles
this isn't a dig on poles but chicago is setting this kid up for failure, just like they set fields up for failure, just like almost every team in history that's expected their top 10 picks to succeed at a high level their first year in the league
Poles sucks should have kept Fields
He should keep JF one more season…….
I don't believe a word that man says.
Don't tell me, show me.
I don't believe your comment.
I believe this comment@@jhampful
He did everything right, showing you. How much do you need. Justin was trash you see he never talk about his arm but him running😂
Poles is a straight shooter. He's building the team the right way and turning the ship around.
In Poles we trust!
🐻 ⬇️
Caleb Williams' big flop would be epic after all this...
Poles is going to trade down for future picks, getting other needs. Williams isn’t the answer here. Got to build the front 4 on offense and defense first, then get any quarterback maybe Bagent can start..that would be the right move..remember they signed lot of one year deals on free agency
LOLOLOL
So in 3 years we’ll reset the quarterback position again.
Maybe, maybe not. I'm just going to go along for the ride and will excitedly hope for the best but won't be stunned either if things don't pan out too well.
Caleb Williams will be a bust.
digging his own grave
Man this guy can put you to sleep. Sounds like he really loves his job. I'm a Cardinals fan thank God we didn't hire him
Poles is such a joke. Dude acts like a rookie fresh out of college and doesn't have a clue how to talk to media. It's clear he doesn't even know football...like the Care Bears fans themselves!
Stop hating, yeah you can say they never beat the pack, but yall cant win either when it matters
Guy is easily one of the smoothest GMs talking ball, just a complete clown take.
@@rickDArula we still own you.
@@Phil_M.1987 and the niners own you so I sleep well at night
Sorry, we dont want a pink QB
Bears still suck! Go PACK Go!
Poles need to leave Fields out of his mouth. You flunked at the game you played!!!😂
WE AIN’T BUYING POLES! You traded Justin and that has a price AND YOU GONE PAY
Ryan Poles is going to regret trading Fields, after Williams flops this year he will be gone. He screwed Fields big time, will argue that point with anyone. He only did it to try to add years on his job. He is not a class act
If Poles is going to be gone, and he isn't a class act, isn't trading Fields to the Steelers ultimately a favor and getting him out of a bad situation?
Justin Fields is a bad NFL passer, that's an objective fact. Get lost.
In 3 years Fields won't even be in the league but go on.
@@jaredsilvers2782 you have no idea what you are talking about
I cant believe someone would tie their career to caleb williams. Williams is going to get rolled and hes getting fired. Deservedly. Draft a tackle, a d tackle, trade down. Build a solid team and find a solid band aid at qb. Build the franchise. Dont piss away yet another high first rounder on an overrated goob.
