Fields was one of the most hyped HS/young college prospects.

People think it never happened because he isn't MVP and hasnt developed as a passer.

He was MVP of the elite 11 camp, his team beat trevor lawrences team when he was 18.

People were talking about fields in the same light as trevor during his sophomore campaign.
I know that, I was just busting some idiot's ass.

Jimmy G went to the superbowl! He's Elite!

QBs that make two Super Bowl starts wind up in the Hall of Fame only 6 have not. Eli Manning and Ben Rothelisberger Russell Wilson are three of those six.

Also, when I look at that screen chart that aligns with my thinking that the Bears ran a lot of poorly executed screens...

Thanks again for letting us know that QBs that get to the Super Bowl multiple times tend to be really fucking good

Waldron looked the most qualified candidate so it’s a good hire, but not too many screens please. Nagy gave us a lifetime’s worth.

So do you just want the next Rex Grossman Jim McMahon Jimmy G where you hope to build up a team well enough to make one Super Bowl?

No, I think they should ignore building the team and just find an elite QB. Why are Bears fans always so opposed to having multiple talented players?

It was a little more than "slight." His TD percentage dropped by 1.2% while his INT% stayed almost identical. Completion percentage went from 70% to 65%. Rating dropped from 101 to 92. Considering the skill players around him, those are pretty solid drops.

I think their schedule had a lot more to do with his drop off in stats than a change in QB coach.
This season he played the Niners, the Browns, Ravens, Rams twice, the Cowboys, and the Bengals (when Burrow was still healthy too.)

Last season's schedule was much easier for the Seahawks.

It would make sense that a QB's numbers would look worse when facing better competition, particularly good defenses.

That I live in your head rent free to the point that you think I'm trying to "drop knowledge" instead of just generating discussion on the board says everything about you.
Maybe he just was having a fever dream of your pepperoni nips on a pizza
