Instantly I know I’ll get the crew who is already done with fields knocking me for this take.
But for the rest of us who still feel like maybe… Fields still could be the guy…
OL is playing well, defense playing well and instantly improved by Sweat. Moore is still the best player on the team, Kmet, Mooney, Foreman, Herbert coming back, great opportunity for Fields to show if he can be the guy we thought he could (and show consistency) before the franchise moves on.
Admittedly I’ve been very reluctant to give up on fields, I just see so much potential fucked up by (imo) coaching and play calling. But I will move on if he gets to prove me wrong through the rest of the season… or he can prove me right and we can ball out on other positional needs and make our run!
I just want success for Da Bears, Bear Down

cant wait for Fields to come out and kill
Honestly I’m kind of in between. I really don’t expect him to take a leap in the few games we have left, and even if he does play well I still think we could take a new QB anyway. That being said. I’m still rooting for him. I still think there’s a chance he can rebound. Maybe it’s just some blind optimism because he’s only been very good for like two games, and him being good means we can spend another first round pick on surrounding talent, but I still think there’s a small chance he can improve enough to be our guy.
I think if Fields will look much better behind this significantly improved O line and defense. I hope the coaching staff tells him that we don’t need him to be perfect. We hung in there and only lost by one score vs the Saints after turning it over FIVE times. Our defense is good enough that we can afford a few mistakes on offense now. Eventually our defense should even be able to generate some turnovers.
I want us to be aggressive downfield on those 3rd and longs. Just throw a deep bomb that’s essentially a punt. Sometimes draw a PI, sometimes throw a pick (which would be similar to a punt), and just go for it. Stop with the 4 yard runs on 3rd and 12. Remember last year when Fields would just keep it himself and run for 16 yards? He has no chance of doing that now because they just call some dumb run or screen that gets blown up immediately.
I am firmly convinced that we win that Saints game running away with Fields behind center.
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit’s T1ME!!!
Fields hater here… I agree with you.
The season is lost, I have no opinion on Bagent - except that he needs more seasoning. Let Fields close out the season. If he plays great, the FO will gave a tough call on their hands, but they also will have a great-playing QB! Sure our draft pick suffers, but we can’t make good use of those…
If Fields is meh, it doesn’t cost more than a lost season.
We already know what Fields is. That’s not going to change because of injury. He is not Brady, Rodgers, Brees… They have to stop trying to turn him into that. They need to go back to what ran well for him last year. They’re better off if they adopt the Philly or Baltimore model or a modified version of it since it is mid season. But they’ll be stupid and continue to try and fit a square peg into a round hole. The Bears will lose, Fields will get blamed, and then they’ll say we need a shiny new QB.
his final exam starts now and ends in January. He’s gotta play lights out the whole way if he wants to come back. Until then I’m going all in on him and cheering him on the whole way.
We already have 2.5 seasons worth of info, but we ant a little more so hopefully we can ignore what we already have.
It’s almost like players improve over time sometimes.
