Just curious with the Fields debate. Has there ever been a QB mid-way through their 3rd year or later with so much uncertainty develop into a reliable starting QB? Alex Smith comes to mind but obviously wasn’t good enough to keep his position.

    Someone explain this. If you watch the first half of almost all our games we were balling offensively. KC is the only one we were bad all around. Second half and Getsy tries to make both our QB’s drop back passers. STUPID!! The O line is just now coming together and playing decent. Why would you take one of the most dynamic athletes in the league and try to make him Dan Marino??? You can still hand the ball off from the shotgun, rpo, put him in motion to either side. That brings the LB’s up opening more of the field. I’ve been a Bears fan since 66 and Fields has the potential to be a premier passer qb in this league. But, Getsy is going to ruin him trying to make him Rodgers.

      That’s kinda the reason for my post. I know he’s been injured but we’re midway through his third season and still talking about potential. He Intermediate game is still very much lacking and he takes too many sacks. Hopefully it was the OL that was the problem and he’ll prove the doubters wrong the rest of the year. I was just looking for examples of that actually happening in the past. Most people listed changes coaches/team. Can these coaches and Fields get it done and if not who goes. Coaches, Fields, both or give everyone one more year. I am rooting for him.
