    Did they though? He had 23 attempts all game not like he was throwing a bunch anyways all game. They ran a lot of option and fields made good reads for the most part. They even let him throw on third and short to seal the game. People wanted to see an offense catered to Fields strengths and this is really it. Lots of option. Good run game. Deep calls.

    I’m pretty sure the ball was in his hands out last three offensive plays.

    First came a read-option where he chose to hand it off

    Then came a pass where he chose to take a low-percentage deep shot

    Then finally a dropback where he showed the pocket awareness of a street sign and fumble-safetied

    The coach is a coward. He coaches not to lose as opposed to coaching to win. He takes his foot off the gas and goes conservative. Same thing happened in Denver. There is a reason he has yet to win back to back games or hasn’t won a divisional playoff game. No reason for this bum to be a coach. He needs to go be a dc somewhere. Fuck him.

    Olin had me really questioning the management this morning. Top to bottom. Like why even play Fields if you’re not going to even give him a chance to make a play and evaluate him? It’s absurd. And no, Run-Run, 3rd and Long deep shot doesn’t count.

    Or running on 3rd & 7

    Or not going for it on 4th & 1

    Seriously what the actual fuck is going on at Halas Hall.

    Idk why. It seems like we are calling the 2022 offense again with Fields despite adding a #1 WR in the off-season. The coaching staff has no confidence in this kid and it’s stupid because this is a lost season so you might as well coach aggressively.

    The Bears have the rare benefit of fans being OK with losing as long as the team is developing players for the future. But Flus seems to be scared of doing that. If his job is being evaluated on wins then he should already be gone.

    Wasn’t it Aidan Hutchinson who took the ball out of fields hands? /s (kinda)
