If he plays Thursday, I'm actually going to pick the Bears in the Survival League. :)

I hear ya. Get the Bears out of the way vs a team worse than them. Just really risky. Those Thursday games are such crap shoots. I don't even like picking good teams in them unless I have to.

He's not playing, not gonna happen. He practiced, good for him and his thumb, but let's not assume there's even a chance of him playing. No reason to put him in there right now.

If he's not ready for Sunday, why would you want to push him into the quick week on Thursday with only a day or two of practice? The next game wouldn't be for 10 more days.

I'm not believing anything until there's a Justin Fields' Thumb account on X like there was for Cutler's Thumb.

Too many people keep staying in this thing, so I want to try to focus on trying to guess wins from the bottom of the league. Haven't had to use the KC or Eagles as a pick yet.

Like someone said on The Score, for a Thursday game, there isn't much practice, and that seems to benefit the Bears. Haha.

Guessing the coaches may feel the Panthers is a must win. If he can play, let him. Let him come back and beat up on the Panthers, as we know he ain't beating the Lions. Not with this team.

I would mean that, if he is ready for Sunday, give him the extra couple days off and prepare for Thurs. They've been practicing all week as if Bagent is starting Sun anyway.

I’m baffled at when he was asked if he thinks he’ll have a chance to play on Thursday, that he didn’t so I hope so. Someone who is the clear starter, you would expect to hear that from him. But yet he gives a “it’s just gonna be day by day. Even if it’s a long shot, you still would say I hope I can.

why the **** do the Bears have to play 2 short weeks in a season? they just did this a month ago. I don't even understand why TNF is the entire season instead of the back half like years past. or why they have to play more games in Germany. Roger Goodell is an asshole. get off my lawn.

the Panthers game presents us with a bit of a quandary. would the Bears winning actually be better to improve their draft position?
