If someone cares about the young man, who fought and bled navy blue and burnt orange, who always represented himself with class and dignity, and feel that he never got a fair shake here, there is nothing wrong with occasionally checking out JF1 to see how he is doing.
If you don’t care about him, don’t read the threads. But we all don’t have to fall in line behind you just because you have no interest in him.
Moreover, I am all about truth. There are constant bash threads popping up misrepresentating how he is actually doing. I care to set the record straight!
Last point — you can root for more than one player and to do so is not disloyal as long as it not against your own team. I root for Caleb and JF1. Again, if you don’t like it, don’t read the thread.
OK, Justin Fields is a class human being who represented the Bears well..........all that is true. Where I do not agree is that he did not get a fair shake here in Chicago. Poles did give JF his shot and he failed. He simply did not progress from year one through three.
I think Fields would do well to sit for a year in yet another new system and improve on the aspects of his game that are lacking. Bill Polian, who knows a thing or two about drafting QB's, having drafted both Jim Kelly, and Payton Manning once said the most difficult thing you have to judge with a quarterback is..............
1) Ability to recognize defenses.
2) Ability to process it quickly.
3) Ability to know where to go with the football.
4) Ability to do it accurately while under pressure.
As of now JF lacks these abilities. He is young, give him this year on the bench to perhaps get his career back on track.
