I was not at all worried about Mitch Trubisky playing well in Pittsburgh. But for some reason I kinda am worried about Fields going somewhere else and being like a top 10 QB in the league. Does anyone else feel this way? The guy has a crazy amount of talent and also is very mentally tough. IDK what is holding him back, it just doesn’t seem to make sense.

I would go after Harrison and keep Fields. Hire coaches that play to his strengths.
Not at all.
No I think he needs a change of scenery. What I’m worried about is picking up the 5th year option then the eventual hold out leading to a $100+m extension
I wish he could go to the packers and start for them
Yes, but on the flip side I’m also worried that even with a new OC and better weapons he won’t be good enough.
I think Fields will be an awesome QB somewhere else
I’d like him to be one here.
I think so too hopefully he goes to the falcon and they hire Eric bieniemy
Not worried about it. It’s unlikely but possible, and would just be confirmation of what we’ve known for a very very very very long time…Chicago is where quarterbacks go to die.
Nah. It’s pretty clear he won’t be a successful starter in the league. Just like it was with Mitch
I think there’s a good chance that he could succeed elsewhere, especially with the right coach and supporting cast
Assuming he succeeds (not a given), it depends on where he goes. Like, I could see him going to the Steelers, which would be cool to see them do well. I could also see him going to the Jets, which I would hate to see them succeed.
Absolutely not. I like fields, regardless of if he’s our guy or not. If he goes elsewhere, I hope he balls out.
Worried. Might be stretching it.
Do I think it’s possible. Yes. But that should be reflected in what that team sends back in a trade. I don’t think it’s crazy to get conditions in a trade where he returns a first round pick.
No, not even a little.
No matter how physically talented you are, you can’t succeed in the NFL as a QB without the ability to read a defense in real time, and fields is absolutely horrible at it. It makes everything around him look worse. He’s a career killer for coaches and OCs.
Around a dozen QBs get drafted each year in the NFL and 1-2 per draft become above-average starters. There’s not enough jobs to go around to keep giving chances to every bust.
No I want him to succeed elsewhere. The guy has done nothing but work hard day-in, day-out and his career was stunted here in Chicago. The guy did nothing wrong but get picked by the most dysfunctional QB franchise in the league. Love the guy, he deserves to flourish
How come a D2 UDFA rookie played behind the exact same team and was able to put up similar stats and take a lot less sacks???
How come no bust bears QB who’s played for the bears went on to succeed anywhere else, even with some of the best coaching in the nfl to help them?
He beat the worst team in the league by 3 points, while not getting sacked - what a superstar!!!
And Justin fields has thrown for over 200 yards in 75% of the games he’s played in 3 seasons in the nfl.
I’m not a Bagent fanatic, but I’m not a fields homer unlike too many on this sub, who love losing like their lives depend on it
He’s already playing good, his stat line the last 17 games is comparable to Hurts. The question is does the front office think Caleb is better than Fields?
There’s still a chance he stays at least 1 more year… If the Panthers can win 2 or 3 down the stretch.
If the bears get Another 1st overall pick… Them he’s gone… But if they get knocked down to 3 I think he stays if he plays well…
I do think he could ball out somewhere else.
Its been pretty obvious since week1 they are trying to pigeon hole him into what THE BEARS want to do…
. Just look at all the terrible back-ups playing… Fields is head and shoulders above most of them… Plus a likely NFL expansion going to happen in the next 5 years or so…
He’s not elite… But he can play at an elite level. Which is way better than most QBs.
