This same line of thinking was used to defend Mitch. We got a lot of wins in 2018, and some posters confused that with Mitch being good or "good enough" or progressing. Mitch is on his 3rd team now.I am honestly over the statistical argument here. Is he winning? Is he the catalyst for the wins we get? Is he growing as a passer? Is he seeing more of the field and making good reads?
The numbers only matter to those posters that want to argue about games they do not watch.
100%, sir. Say it louder for the people in the back. That SF game had to feel good for Fields. Bears were routinely shit on all offseason. The Bears don't win that game without Justin Fields, despite his poor stat line, he made plays when they needed to be made. Is that not what we want?I am honestly over the statistical argument here.

I hate cousins, but that Vikings offense has a lot of playmakers that make things easy on himThey have a QB who is great when left alone and the worst when pressured. He was 100% left alone the whole game.
I think the Bears offense will struggle mightily because I think packers have a really good defense and the Bears offense still is pretty limited outside of fields who still has a lot to prove
X amount of TDs? X amount of yards?100%, sir. Say it louder for the people in the back. That SF game had to feel good for Fields. Bears were routinely shit on all offseason.

This game will be a good test. Primetime game on the road, hostile environment, vs a 'rival'. I want to see Fields live up to the moment more so than just creating some arbitrary numbers and saying 'he needs to get X yards and X amount of TDs' for it to be a good game. Let the stats fall where they may.
If JF gets decent pass pro and time in the pocket. I predict a win vs GB
I think from that standpoint, you need to look at whether or not Fields is "a" or "the" reason for why we won, or perhaps why the ball moved even if it was only in a limited capacity. You look at last game, and even though our stats sucked, you can't watch that game and say that Fields wasn't the primary reason our offense got done what it got done, which wasn't always the case for Mitch.This same line of thinking was used to defend Mitch.

This defense is going to give up points this year. We are not going to face Trey Lance every week. This will be a rude awakening for ppl who don't think low yardage is a problem. The loses start piling up.I think from that standpoint, you need to look at whether or not Fields is "a" or "the" reason for why we won, or perhaps why the ball moved even if it was only in a limited capacity.

But it's a valid point nonetheless. If Fields largely sucks or struggles but we win games cause the defense is much better than expected then you're right, no one should be like "but we're winning games!"
I checked yesterday and it was like a high of 82.I'll vote on Saturday once we know the full weather forecast (which as of yesterday was a 60 percent chance of rain).

Vikings have a better roster overallVikings moved the ball at will against the Packers. Receivers wide open and no pass rush.
2018 didn't have me convinced either way yet. I wanted to see how he came out in 2019.The 2018 season taught me just about everything I needed to know about Trubisky.
I am sure the 2022 season will do the same for me and Fields. If he disappoints, I will have no problem jumping on the "Poles needs to draft his own QB" train.
