Agree or disagree? I don’t think he will come back this year from his injury. If his agent had half a brain he would make him sit. I still think teams would give up a mid to late first or a player of value for him. I think we should Forsure go maye over Caleb who is essentially the same player with a bigger mouth and ego… Bagent is not an nfl caliber player but it is bringing in a lot of publicity. I think this whole bagent story is to create a narrative that the bears do not ruin QB’s
Disagree. Right now, an UDFA has a better record than him this year. He needs to change that narrative. Fields has no choice but to prove his can play, that he can win, and that he can overcome adversity. He is not good enough to wait-and-see…he has to prove it.
I disagree about Bagent as well. He is playing like a rookie, some good and some bad, but the Bears can continue to develop him as a great backup and maybe a starter a couple years down the road. They can have a QB that is a strength instead of a weakness with talent they developed…how great would that be?
I’m not sold that the Bears will draft a QB with their top pick. It is a stacked class and there are some great options in later in the first round of the draft too. They could trade out and stack the team with talent or they could take a MHJ with the high pick and a McCarthy or another QB with the lower pick. Trading Fields for a high pick might net a WR, QB, and OL or DL talent from this years #1 round alone.
Lots of great options
QB Wins are not a stat. How many times do we have to say that?
That is a dumb thing to say, it’s what losers say. Of course they are A state, just not THE stat.
No matter, if Bagent, and UDFA, can go .500 and perform with these WR, OL and offense, then so should Field, in fact he should do better.
I like Fields and want him to step up. I would hate having to using a draft pick on another QB after spending three years wanting him to succeed. That said, it’s on him to step up, lead the offense, protect the ball, and become a leader who can win.
