Only question is it poles should get to hire a second coach 

No. 

He missed so badly on Fields while having the #1 pick and trading it away that I don't trust him to pick a QB either.

“A rare downfield pass from Fields”

I heard that too, and laughed 

Time to heavily scout next years QB class, because Bears don’t have one! Trade both first round picks in a deal to get one.

It was still a good trade. You didn’t know what you had in Fields. You got DJ Moore, along with two first rounders available to you in 2024. If Fields wasn’t the guy, it means the Bears are going to have a shitty record, so both picks should be fairly high. 
 

We also don’t know what the market was like for Fields.

Forgot who said it on radio, but someone said Fields trade value was way less than what Bears fans think

It’s in the toilet a 5th round maybe at this point.

So with that in mind, what was Poles supposed to do this off-season? 

They have to cut Claypool 

Fields ain't it. 

I’m so bummed.

Draft a difference maker on defense and see what Fields had this year.  If he sucks, you draft Caleb or Maye, etc

Right, I can def listen to the argument they should have taken Carter, but I thought Wright made sense as well. But I still want to give Poles 2-3 years to see what he puts together

I’m fine with that, but the whole coaching staff needs to go

How long till we hear the "start Tyson Bagent" calls from fans?

I think the Jets would give up a decently high pick (they do not believe in Wilson). The rest of the teams, probably not.

Oh it has started already 

First team in NFL history to lose 12 in a row abd give up at least 25 points  in every loss.

Lol, this is as low as we're ever had it, and that's really saying something ? What a pathetic franchise, I wish I could just stop caring but here I am, like a masochist still tuned in to this sh*tshow

That drive was such a perfect summation of him thus far. Makes some great throws, then looks like a high schooler. Those last few plays make me think he's just not the guy

I am 99 percent sure he is not the guy.

Fields is closer to Jalen Milroe or Joe Milton of TN.

Secondly, amazing how many QBs have OU/Riley or Bama ties in the NFL right now.

Mayfield Murray Hurts Williams

(Alas no Rattler.)

With the White Sox...about as good as any of the 23-24 Bears.  Would fit in quite well.

Guess we can't overreact on DJ Moore since the QB can't consistently get him the ball.  Unless he's on your fantasy team.

I feel there's no way he could have traded Fields unless the package was ridiculous. If he trades Fields and Fields turns into a stud, that is a career killer. He needed to ride with Fields for one more season. Nobody should be blaming him for rolling with Fields this season.
