Fields: 169 yards passing after 4 TOs by Detroit just isn't going to cut it.

Because you can only get a huge haul for the #1 overall pick when you have the #1 overall pick, they can get a huge haul for #1 this year and draft a QB next year but cant draft a QB this year and get a huge haul for #1 overall next year. UNless they get a historical 3rd #1 overall in a row.
Poles is not passing up on the number one pick two years in a row, get fucking real lmao.

The logic is crazy lmao. “Oh let’s pass on a relatively solid QB class and draft a QB next year in a weak class”. Like what lmao. The likelihood you’ll be picking number one next year is slim. No competent GM is gonna pass on that TWO years in a row.

The defense.......
Giving up a 26-14 lead in the last 3 min, merits going after a Qb in the 1st round......really?

Im saying what I think the Bears should do, not predicting what Poles does. Although if your GM isnt making decisions based on whats best for the franchise that says a lot about what you have at GM.

So……by definition they would then need to give up a huge haul next year?

You should go back and read your suggestions and try to piece them together and try to make sense of it. You started with they don’t need a quarterback and have done nothing but talk about how they can acquire one one year after the Bears have the number one pick and a shot at a generational quarterback.

Circles. You are talking in circles

You’re implying the GM is dumb if he does the very thing you are suggesting. 😂

How are you so stupid that you cant comprehend "convert #1 overall into more value by trading down"? Its one thing to not agree with that path but to not even be able to figure it out is hilarious. Enjoy your investments in Nigerian princes.

Except 3/4 of fields last games are the best stretch he's had in his career.
Yet the question still remains, is this a guy you can win some big games with? I'm not convinced. There's still some glaring flaws.

I think the game clinching turnover reputation he's garnered isn't entirely his fault, but it's not all not his fault either. He simply hasn't shown that he can stand in the pocket and beat you, which what QBs need to do in the 4th quarter to either hold onto a win or come from behind. He'll hold onto the ball too long, be a little loose with it or just make a bad throw far too often.

Bottom line is that if he were going to be an upper echelon passer, he'd have shown more of it by now. He's shown to be an upper echelon weapon and athlete but not quarterback, and that's going to cap him around where Jay Cutler was, most likely: average QB that's mistake prone and doesn't come through in the clutch.

Fields isn't the reason the Bears lost. That doesn't mean he's a franchise QB. The standards here are way to low. Fields made.one great throw. "He didn't totally suck!" isn't enough.

You dont need the first overall pick to find a good QB - you need a situation and good scouting - ask CAR and HOU about that for most recent example. If you trade #1 overall you keep your hat in the top few picks ring anyway depending on your partner.
It's anecdotal, but look at where the best teams in the league got their QBs right now.

Philly: 2nd round
Detroit: 1st overall pick but was a salary dump/reclamation project
Baltimore: 32nd overall pick
Kansas City: 10th overall pick
9ers: Mr. Irrelevant
Dallas: 4th round
Miami: 5th overall pick
Seattle: 2nd round, journeyman turned starter

Seems to support your point here. Get some talent, a good coaching staff and front-office, then bring a guy in who's got a support system. Bringing a QB into this current Bears situation would be like bringing a baby into a crack house.

The Bears coaching staff are bottom barrel. Coaches are supposed to put a team in a position to win. How did the coaches do that today? They coached too conservatively. Ran twice in a row up the middle against a 9 man box, snd played a gutless prevent defense. Also players were missing tackles as well. A Lovie Smith or Jim Harbaugh team misses very little tackles.

After the opponent turned the ball over four times the fact we only had 26 points should say something as well

Here ya go.......The defense.......Giving up a 26-14 lead in the last 3 min,
There's no justification for this

Eberfus was to DUMB NOT TO BE IN DEEP COVER 3-4.....in the last 3 min,

Giving up a 26-14 lead in the last 3 min, 👉is inexcusable.

I don't get into the titles "franchise QB", "generational QB". "Elite Qb" etc. Just put up enough points to WIN.
JF did that today.

And Getsy did what the meatballs wanted - plenty of designed runs in another loss.

And of course, Fields fumbled the game away.
Don't you ever just want to go away and stop doing what you do?

Do you really get off on this? Don't you realize how pathetic you come off?

If you're not a 400-pound cliche living in your mom's basement, what is your excuse?

I mean he literally did not do that.

Considering they got 4 turnovers off the Lions this game should not have been close. But Justin Fields is a model of inefficiency. His running is great. U til he consistently produces from the pocket the Bears will never be a consistent offense. Especially when it matters most.
