LOL I mean, I'm sorry, I should have put that in green text with rolling eyeballs.

I don't see the OL being anything special for a few years.
This year it will likely be bad to mediocre.
Next year probably the same unless they draft five OL and they are all studs.
So...how long do we wait? Fuck it. Get Fields out there. Let him learn against starting teams.
My dad taught me to swim by throwing me in the deep end of the pool.
Fields is a first-round pick. Start him.
Until Fields is ready to start. No longer, and no less…

So, the OL is bad to mediocre next year—bench Fields until it improves.
2023—the OL is still bad. Bench Fields.
2024—the OL is even worse. Bench Fields
2025-2035—the OL gets marginally better, but still pretty bad.
Fields retires.

Is that the plan?
Yes, until he retires. In fact, trade him now while he has value. What a stupid post...

Difficult to have a serious conversation here. But then, welcome to the internet, I guess.

Topics I want discussed ASAP:

1. Atheism vs Religion
2. Veganism vs Eating Meat
3. Extraterrestrial life


TIA
Answers:
1. Neither is viable option.
2. Neither-Vegetarian with dairy.
3. Aside from Earth, only microbial in this solar system. As far as the rest of the universe, odds are for extraterrestrial life that has advanced to sentience, but because space is expanding faster that the speed of light in many places, hooking up is just probably not going to happen.

1. It takes more faith to believe this giant universe just appeared like a fart after taco night billions of years ago than it does to believe in an almighty space king. Both are ridiculous though if you really think about it.
2. Meat tastes good. ?‍♂️
3. The lizard people are real and most of them run our government.

It’s much easier to deal with a bad OL when the QB is one of the fastest players on the field.

Yeah but counterpoint: all it takes is one bad hit. We almost saw that last game. and that was just practice.

LOL. I was being sarcastic to make a point, my friend. There may NEVER be a "right time" to start him. Perfection is the enemy of good. I've seen enough. I am 99% sure if you put him out there with the starters, he'll play much better than Dalton.

You can't live in fear of that ONE HIT. If you play the game that way, your career is already over. Our OL will be mediocre at best, but I don't think they'll be TERRIBLE, the worst in the NFL. Start him.

1. Not really. Science relies on testable hypotheses and refines those hypotheses based on the latest information ie based on the current knowledge of 2021. Faith relies on unfalsifiable beliefs based on knowledge from 2k years ago and employs confirmation bias regarding any update to that knowledge.
2. I concur.
3. The Salarians rule.

Trestman did everything in the book to get fired midseason and they still waited until Black Monday. Nagy would have to totally detonate. The guy might not be a good coach but he is a decent man, the Bears wont do him like that.
Haha they fired him at 12:01.

Can you test for what happened before the Big Bang?
