Why the **** would Lemmming not expect the Bears to be a playoff team next year? Do they have a franchise QB or not? Is the NFC north not wide open?
If bears aren’t a playoff team one of two things happened (or both) Either Fields isn’t that dude, or Poles Fucked up the off-season. Bears should be a playoff team next year.
They were on the same team in 2020 as well. Why didn't you screenshot those stats? And Jake Fromm is better than Justin Fields right because he won the Georgia QB job and made Fields transfer.Uhhh...no.

There are 14 teams that make the playoffs, there are more than 14 franchise QBs. So yes, it's unfair. 7 teams make it in the NFC. Franchise QBs in the NFC are: Dak, Hurts, Rodgers, Cousins (like him or not), Stafford, Murray, was Brady, and then you have Fields and whatever you consider Goff and guys like Daniel Jones and Geno Smith. And that doesn't even count the 49ers who, everyone Shanahan touches becomes a franchise QB.
So even if you don't count Goff or Jones, and you take away Brady from the NFC, you still have 6 other franchise QBs and the Niners. So, 1 of those teams are going to miss the playoffs every year.
Yeah I can't think of anything that happened in 2020 that could have caused stats to be a little skewed and make it hard to determine why a freshman only had 10 receptions. Certainly a normal year. Definitely not anything significant that could have happened.They were on the same team in 2020 as well. Why didn't you screenshot those stats?

What you say isn't really true either. The NFL in very recent years has drafted a WR top 12 who tore his ACL 3 months before the draft. The NFL also drafted WR1 who sat out a year (not injured). And I know the pandemic was a special circumstance but injuries and lack of recent on field production isn't necessarily a deterrent either if the traits are there.Yeah that isn't really true. If JSN doesnt go in the top 11, that will likely be in large part because he was injured most of the season. Obviously if he was fully healthy and had a year similar to 2021 then he would likely be the top WR in the draft. This is not to say he is better than those two but can't pretend having just 5 catches and 43 for the whole season isnt a major factor. He is being downgraded due to lack of production and injury which doesnt mean he isn't a better talent.
So the argument is: JSN put up better numbers on the same team in non-pandemic seasons? That's quite the specific sample size.Yeah I can't think of anything that happened in 2020 that could have caused stats to be a little skewed and make it hard to determine why a freshman only had 10 receptions.

Statistically, Cousins is clearly a franchise QB. Just because you don't like the guy doesn't mean he's not a legit franchise QB. 6 seasons each in passing yards, passing TDs, completion %, passer rating and GW drives.There are always exceptions. And I don’t put cousins in the franchise QB category. Either way, if you have a legit franchise QB, the expectation should be playoffs. It’s not unfair. It’s reality
Yeah very small sample size indeed. He was only the best receiver in the best WR room in the history of college football. Def too small a sample size to take a shot at. And now that I'm thinking about it 350 yards in the one game the two stud NFL players that say he was better sat out isn't important either because the rose bowl is basically like an Idaho d 3 high school state championshipSo the argument is: JSN put up better numbers on the same team in non-pandemic seasons?

He’s not a franchise guy. He chokes in the playoffs and almost lost the locker room numerous times.Statistically, Cousins is clearly a franchise QB. Just because you don't like the guy doesn't mean he's not a legit franchise QB. 6 seasons each in passing yards, passing TDs, completion %, passer rating and GW drives.
Yeah, lets compare his freshman season against upper classmen instead of the most recent and more relevant season. Did JSN impregnate your daughter while kicking your dog and soiling your pickup trucks cloth seats or something?They were on the same team in 2020 as well. Why didn't you screenshot those stats?

You guys are acting like I don't like him. I literally said the exact opposite. Hell, yesterday I said he is the closest thing in this draft to the answer to the Bears offensive weapons. All, I'm saying is he is not as good a prospect as guys who went 10 and 11 last year which isn't an outlandish thing to even say.Yeah, lets compare his freshman season against upper classmen instead of the most recent and more relevant season.

I knowI honestly have no clue how you arrived at that from this interview.
Oh good another idiot on CCS who didn't think Justin Fields improved as a passer because he watches box scores and not football.Oh good another player who loves that Fields can run and says nothing about if he can do it in the passing game.
