He just so happens to wear #10 and has similar tools to Trubisky too (much better arm strength though). He's not the same prospect, but there's definitely some PTSD there for Bears fans.

Mel Kiper Jr seems to think the Bears can get the 8th pick for Fields, which is just insane to me. There might be a 1% chance of that happening.

That came from his dad, who he had a big argument over his USC transfer with. They don't always agree on everything.

The Bears' roster situation is way better than every other team he can go to. Who is he going to throw to in Washington? New England? The Bears roster only has maybe 6 holes on it and they have the draft capital and cap space to easily fill those. It's a playoff team if Caleb is any good. That's a great situation to walk into.

It's from a Twitter troll. I saw so many dumb FB posts about it and people in the comments just ate it up. Had any of those people bothered to Google who the guy was, they wouldn't have said anything. The amount of Bears fans who now think Caleb doesn't want to play here or is a diva for saying something like that probably went up by quite a bit from a stupid troll post. All because Elon decided Blue checkmarks only cost $8, people just bought it as fact. Social media fucking sucks.

The NFL putting a playoff game strictly on Peacock is bullshit.

Alright I don't think this is just the refs being bad, if you're a Browns fan I wouldn't blame you for thinking this is rigged. That PI was the softest call imaginable and they missed the obvious call against the Browns.

I thought that wasn't even close in real time. It was obvious the defender hit Njoku way too early.

Fitting how the team played the best basketball of the year right before that and promptly played their worst quarter of the year right after.

That was the best 3 minutes of basketball the Bulls have played all year.

The problem with this plan is the opportunity cost of skipping on this draft's huge haul of QBs. Next year's class is much worse at QB.

You did. The line being 31st in pressures being squarely their fault was very surprising. No surprise that Patrick is the worst lineman, but I was expecting him to be much lower than 15th. These numbers may not match up to the eyetest 100%, but I think they take away a lot of the bias that's thrown out there by fans and the media. There's another chart I did not post that charted TTT under 2.5 seconds and over 2.5 seconds. The Bears had the 3rd least amount of drop backs where the TTT was under 2.5 seconds. And were first in drop back % with a TTT of over 2.5 seconds. On those drop backs, his TTT was the third worst in the league at 4.09 seconds. The line gave him time to throw on those. Here's the whole thread in case anyone is interested. There's a lot of good stuff in here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CHIBears/s/k05If73bUk

In overall PFF rating or with regards to TTT? I know Tua is probably first in TTT. I don't have PFF premium so I don't really know the rest.

You should take a look at the chart I posted right above this.

I found out that PFF actually does measure TTT for scrambles and pocket throws. Including sacks. Somebody on Reddit was nice enough to chart all his advanced stats. Fields was still the worst in terms of TTT on throws that were not scrambles. As I suspected Fields was real good at buying time on scrambles as he took 6 seconds to throw on those on average, which really skewed his overall TTT even more. I'd be interested to see what the splits look like for Williams.

Yeah it's on Billy too. I don't know how you have him ISO for like 5 straight possessions when it was clear he didn't have it tonight.

That's a good start. Whether or not he'll settle for a lateral move when there are a ton of HC openings though, I don't know.

They need to trade DeMar. This ISO s%*# in the last 2 minutes is unbearable.

I'll give the media their credit. They asked a lot of uncomfortable and guided questions to Poles to try and extract his thought process. The Stroud questions were very awkward, but it's something that every fan should be asking Poles. How can we trust you to make the right decision scouting-wise with the #1 pick if you missed out on Stroud?

I think the question was if he talked to Harbaugh or his agent. It's such an awkward question with Eberflus sitting right there. What's he going to say? That he talked to Harbaugh but they didn't want to pay him $130 million so they're stuck with Eberflus?

Kingsbury's tenure in AZ might not have been good, but he's someone that Williams is close with and has worked with. If you're going to take a QB at #1, you want to make sure he's comfortable and that the offense is tailored to him to ease his transition to the NFL. Not like what happened with Nagy and Fields.

Dalton getting hurt so early certainly didn't help.
