****2024-25 Chicago Bears Thread 📈****

[torbee]

Bo Nix is better than Caleb Williams.

Bears should have kept Fields and drafted Marvin Harrison Jr which I said before the draft.

Such a shit organization.

Meh. Fields sucks. You are what you are after that many years.

Fields told Robert Smith that he didn’t want to watch too much tape. He wanted to react.

That shit don’t work in the NFL. A good QB is never going to turn down information.

 

[torbee]

Colts - Bears has a strong Bumfights vibe.

 

[torbee]

Put a pillow over Virgina McCaskey, fire everyone in the organization and start over.

The Bears organization is almost as broken as the White Sox

Don't think that's true. Coaching, scheme & development matter in the NFL. How do you explain Sam Darnold suddenly being good?

 

[Hawked]

Good thing the colts qb sucks

I don’t think any organization is even close to the White Sox.

 

[RagnarLothbrok]

Out of curiosity, I looked up how many quarterbacks have started for the Bears since 1994.

I counted roughly 35.

That’s insane.

Fields doesn’t put the work in. He flat out said he doesn’t watch much tape. Robert smith said that attitude won’t cut it in nfl.

You don’t out athlete nfl defenses.

 

[Brian_Fantana]

Wonder if the defense is starting to get a little vocal at all in the locker room. Way too good of a defense to be wasted.

 

[QChawks]

Bears offense and Iowa offense is identical

 

[jamesvanderwulf]

Bears offense and Iowa offense is identical

Nope. Iowa doesn't turn the ball over. At least the Bears game is not on TV. Packers cruising on the road with a fill in QB...suck it Bears...

OL is trash and Williams shouldn’t be QB1 yet

 

[win1forthe]

They say his name is Shane Waldron, but I have a sneaky suspicion that Brian Ferentz is running the Bears offense

 

[RagnarLothbrok]

Williams shouldn’t be QB1 yet

Then he shouldn’t have been drafted #1.

The Bears had two lottery picks. Get Marvin Harrison, Jr.—with his pedigree and what he did in college he’s about as close to a guarantee as you’re going to get—then get some OL help or stick with Ozunde (I don’t know the Bears needs that closely). Or draft Bo Nix.

I don’t think anything suggested Williams was a lock to be a franchise quarterback, and with the Bears’ history of drafting garbage quarterbacks, I would have addressed another position of need or traded out of the #1 pick.

 

[Tom Paris]

Caleb played pretty well when all is said and done. Not getting a TD from the 1 on 3 plays and missing a Hail Mary by 1 yard killed them.

The line still sucks…. Bad

 

[Tom Paris]

The line still sucks…. Bad

I’m baffled at how bad the line is. They could at least run block the last 2 years. This year it’s a mess. There were many times today where Caleb did have all day to throw so hopefully that’s a positive step.

 

[win1forthe]

When your highest paid lineman is Nate Davis, you can understand why they are so bad. He’s halfway checked out and is there a worse center in the NFL than Shelton? There is no way Williams makes it through the season with this group protecting him. And they can’t run block, either.

Against a garbage team.

 

[beanerhawk]

More likely, 5. I don't see 10 wins on their schedule. If I'm being 100% honest and not just dicking around I think they get 7 or 8 wins. Arizona and the Titans are games they could get.

I was so right on with more likely 5. Now that Carolina seemingly found a QB and has a pulse that no longer looks like a gimmie win either.

 

[Tom Paris]

Against a garbage team.

An NFL team. They're hard to get wins against. 2 other teams expected to get wins against "garbage" teams yesterday and left with losses.

I just can't believe the run game has imploded from last year.

I started watching in 1974...it was horrible those previous 20 years too.

Do we have to go back to the days of Sid Luckman for when the Bears had a reliable starter?

 

[Tom Paris]

Yep...cuz McMahon couldn't stay healthy.

 

[RagnarLothbrok]

Yep...cuz McMahon couldn't stay healthy.

I vaguely remember.

That’s crazy. Bears fans deserve at least one decent starting quarterback in their lifetimes.

This

 

[ClarindaA's]

Can you imagine having added Marvin Harrison and Joe Alt in this draft, while also grabbing an extra 1 next year and two this year?

 

[Tom Paris]

I vaguely remember.

I know the worst. Look up his numbers sometime...Rusty Lisch. Worst QB I ever saw in a Bears uniform. I think Ditka benched him for Payton one game.

 

[ClarindaA's]

I think Caleb will be fine, but he needs a running game and a little more time

 

[TC Nole OX]

Bears OL is almost as bad as the Dolphins OL

 

[hawkeyez]

The lack of a running game is way more concerning than anything I've seen from Caleb. Swift is averaging 1.8 YPC and the sample size isn't exactly small. It's like he's running into defenders on purpose instead of looking for open field. Roschon averaged 3.8 YPC on Sunday and looked like Walter Payton by comparison.

I might be wrong, but didn't the Colts give up 200+ rushing yards in each of their games this season prior to playing the Bears? Yesterday tells you just how bad the Bears line is..

 

[SoDakHawk]

Trade down from #1. Pick up massive haul. Draft Jayden Daniels. Profit

Oh, what could have been.

Nix and Daniels both look better than Williams.

 

[win1forthe]

So did Andy Dalton. Heck, I would take Joe Flacco…wait, he would literally get killed behind that sieve of a line.

Have to admit, it was fun watching Daniels tonight.

 

[jamesvanderwulf]

Well they passed on Patrick Mahomes to take Mitch Trubisky...

 

[QChawks]

Just like last year, Tory Taylor is the only reason to watch the offense

 

[win1forthe]

If they lose today, I am ready for the Eberflus era to come to an end. Totally undisciplined.
