Oh, and speaking of bad media takes...anyone see the bs in the PFT mailbag? Someone asked for the over / under for the week that Fields starts.
After a long winding blowhard explanation, they concluded that the schedule should also be considered as a valid reason to start week 1...on the road, in prime time. Because people tuning in will expect to see Fields play. And anything less than that means that people should immediately conclude the Bears messed up at the qb position again.
I'm sure the PFT answer has nothing at all to do with the fact they are a part of NBC sports which owns the Sunday Night prime time game in question....
