No pretty sure they used all three to stop the clock on the previous drive
I'm talking about the first half, not the end of the game. Had 7 seconds left with 3rd and 4 at the 37 and one timeout left. Instead of throwing, run up the middle to get 5 yards and call the timeout.

This is the biggest question of the day. I don't what the conditions are, a field goal has got to have better odds than a hail Mary with 3 seconds left. A miss does not give Cleveland good field position to score.
Also, they had a timeout left. Instead of that last pass, just run Fields up the middle for 5 yards, fall down, call timeout and then try a 50 yarder.

I’m sick to my stomach losing this game. Absolutely brutal. Classic bears loss of d balling all game and collapsing late. Offense never able to do enough.
Im sure some fan will aggregate some stats to be excited about fields though and blame everyone else.
Not saying Fields played a great game but Cleveland has an outstanding defense and this was an easy win if guys could catch the ball.

They play great in man all day and then switch to zone the minute they get up by two scores and it never works. Stay aggressive.

My other take there is there is no way roschon was that short of the first down the previous play.
Unfortunately you can't challenge that. You can challenge whether or not he got the first, but not that he was a half yard short instead of two yards short.

I think the contract situation isn't ideal either. Even if he is the guy (he isn't), you're gonna have to sign him to a big contract after next season. And then the advantage of having a cheap QB is gone. If you get the #1 pick, you draft a new QB. Williams has his flaws, but you can't not take him if you have the chance.
Yes, you can absolutely not take him.
I will repeat that I will be beyond upset if the Bears don't end up with Fashanu or Alt. Either one would do so, so much for this offense.

New England just beat Pittsburgh.. which is absolutely huge for the #1 pick for the Bears now.
Fitting that the Bears are getting the #1 pick because Trubisky sucks.

Probably a workable solution. They have made runs at the Bears in the past. I would think they could do it financially and politically, don't know if the will is there for NWI.
If you could get BP and the steel companies on board, and partner with Hard Rock Casino on the entertainment/dining district, it could definitely work.

I don't believe Nashville is his first choice, but I believe he is making it a strong candidate just to be able to strong arm Illinois. And I don't believe Illinois will cave this time. Illinois is not the same state it was in the late 1980's. No chance that meeting was intended to be a "secret".
How about Indiana?

If they move, I hope it's before the Rays get a new stadium deal so they can move here.

OSU is going to be playing a lot of non-starters
Their QB and one of their WR are already gone.

I’m not so sure this year.
Here's the SEC's problem: they routinely schedule downright horrid non-conference schedules and rely on their mid-tier teams ending up 8-4 or 9-3 and highly ranked and then their top teams point to those as great wins. Look at the SEC teams and who they've beaten aside from each other. Missouri beat K-State and Mississippi beat Tulane and Kentucky beat Louisville and I can't find any other quality wins for the conference.
Can we really say Georgia and Alabama are clearly among the four best teams when all they did was beat a bunch of teams whose best wins are against Louisville and Kansas State? The two teams that did play top non-conference games, LSU and Alabama, lost and neither game was particularly close.

Has an undefeated P5 team ever been denied since they changed to four teams?
No, and if FSU's QB hadn't gotten hurt we still wouldn't, but without him FSU is clearly not one of the four best teams. Michigan is going to be #1 and if you ask them who they'd rather play they'd 100% pick FSU over Alabama.

They won the best conference in College Football, beat the two time undefeated National Champions.
Washington, Florida State, Texas and Alabama. Ban Michigan for NCAA Violations.
Alabama and Georgia may both be in the Top Four when Sagarin Ratings are refreshed tomorrow.

I agree Michigan should be banned but that's not happening. Michigan, Washington and Texas are in.
Florida State hasn't won yet but even if they do I think they drop to #5 and Alabama is in.

111 the highest yardage total from halftime of Michigan/Iowa FSU/Louisville.
Snooze.
A lot of college football fans are going to be angry next week...
First half yardage:
Michigan + Iowa + Florida State + Louisville = 321
Quinn Ewers = 354

If the Cubs signed him, they would get an entire country of Marquee subscribers.
Can only get Cubs on Marquee within the local Chicago territory. Would need mlb.tv or MLBEI elsewhere.

Can't we at least match his -1.2 fWAR with in-house options?

Literally anyone can DH, you don't have to be a big slow plodder to occupy the DH spot. That was what was meant when the Sox had too many DH's, slow big men who can't play anywhere else.
I prefer not to have a full-time DH. If you have someone like Robert who maybe needs a couple days not in the field you can keep his bat in the lineup. Or the other guys. Keeps everybody more fresh.

They need to go back to traditional bowl alignments and quit these playoffs. It's ruined the game. Just vote for a national champion.
Too late now, but what I thought they should have done is kept the traditional bowl alignments, and then had a 4 team playoff after the bowls.

Do NOT draft a QB this year. They're fools gold. Try to identify who's going to be the worst team in 2024, swap first round picks with them (plan seems to be working so far this year), and get your QB next year. In the meantime, get a damn LT, C, maybe also LG, an edge rusher, and some more defensive depth.
Get a competent QB coach/OC who can take one more shot with Fields next year and then be ready for the new guy when that doesn't work.

Tulane and Liberty are both ranked higher than UNLV.

Find one of them and trade them the #1 pick for an absolute haul. Make last year's trade look like the Bears got robbed.
