This is precisely why I advocated for keeping Fields and getting "The Haul" -- BECAUSE this team is ready to contend.... but then you set the progress clock back when you insert a rookie because he will need time to develop. Fields had already gone through that learning curve and was taking on more of a veteran presence -- just add to it and take things to the next level. Going to Caleb is almost like starting all over again.

That said, I think Caleb will be anywhere from big time to very, very good IN TIME. But it looks like he is not ready now.

I hope he proves me wrong this season because if he doesn't, its gonna another wasted year.

It's hard to do much when your interior line is getting killed. Jenkins doesn't even look very good let alone Shelton and Davis.

Fields would have 5 completions in this game and several more sacks taken. Probably would make s few big splash plays with his legs.


This performance is equally as bad if not worse then the Fields/Cleveland game for the oline. The difference is Williams is getting rid of the ball to mask the massive leakage.

The best offensive player for the Bears has been the Texans lack of discipline (12 penalties).
