What talent?

He's not a burner
His hands are suspect
His route running is shit
He's a head case

His eminently replaceable

Curse of following a shitty team. Meatballs mythologizing shitty players to entertain themselves. So Miller becomes this uber talented tragic hero who was failed by the villains in the story. Instead of the truth which is that he was yet another Pace failure that we traded up to overdraft.

His hands are actually pretty good when he's focused. He makes extremely difficult catches and has fantastic body control. His route running was great his first couple years in the league. Athletically he's NFL average but that's fine, that's not his game.

All of that has fallen apart this year. Mentally he's been ruined and his game is so predicated on him being with it mentally. A change of scenery is desperately needed for him.
Now you're just making shit up

It's like he was good and on an upward trajectory prior to this season

He was as awful in years 1 and 2

I'd dump him in a heartbeat

If you put him on a team with a good quarterback he'd light it up.

Talented player who showed tons of promise his first two years but never achieved due to the the woefulness of the offensive around him. This third year has been a disaster for him in every way. He was never coached right, never given the right encouragement or the right discipline. This was a guy right on that fine line between intensity and recklessness and the Bears organizationally did nothing to ensure he landed on the right side of that curve. He was basically abandoned and thrown to the wolves.

At the end of the day its true, players are the ones most accountable for their actions. But Anthony Miller was a guy the Bears had who could have achieved great things if he had the right leadership. That never happened for him. Sad.

guy is dumb as a box of rocks.

Dude has no control of his emotions. Everytime he makes a catch he gets up talking shit like he just won the SB. 22 the cunt talks shit to him once and he smacks him. He's talented but he's not a pro.

Bears are most likely either trading him for a late rd pick or releasing him. His only chance at staying is if the Bears clean house.

LOLOLOLOL

Miller needed a big brother on the team that would kick his ass. ARob is great, but he's not like that it seems. Anytime Miller gets his hands on the ball and doesn't fuck it up somehow, he is in danger of costing the team yards and points.

Cut Wims and Miller and move the F on to 2021.

I dont intend to let him completely off the hook. I think his mentality is part of the reason he fell as far as he did in the draft. Talent-wise he's a first round guy. Guys with his profile find a lot of success in the league.

But the Bears coaches should've known that coming in and done something to set him up well. Truth is he never had a chance with this franchise, the frustration got to him and boiled over.
Talent wise? He’s short and slow

He's an outstanding route runner with great feet and quickness. That's not debatable. He dropped to many passes and had a hard time learning the system but you have to wonder how good he could have been if Nagy played to his strengths instead of trying to make him fit chiefs system.

Lmao, he's nowhere near a first round talent. He's just another guy, easily replaceable by any free agent off the street.

TTNL....reported a neighbor of Bears WR Coach stated besides Robinson and Mooney its the worst WRs room he has been apart of....speaks volumes about where these guys heads are at and HC holding guys accountable. Not only that..Nagy said they held a seperate meeting for exactly what he was kicked out for. He needs to be cut along with Wims

He doesn't understand the route tree.

Mooney coming in and adapting the way he did pretty clearly condemns Miller's career so far.
