da Bears...get #1 (figure they have to trade and go with Fields) -- nm - Beaker Jan 8, 13:06 19
- What they should do is rebuild the O-line, the entire D front 7, and 2-3 receivers that can run routes and catch the ball. Every player in those - zunk takes things literally Jan 8, 13:37
- What they should do is trade Fields and take a QB since they don’t have one. -- nm - The Allfather Jan 8, 13:16 15
  - Trade Fields to who? -- nm - zunk takes things literally Jan 8, 13:24
  - He was quite good in his last 11 games. I'm way more optimistic about him than I was. -- nm - pmb Jan 8, 13:18 13
    - He can’t throw. PFF gave him a failing grade something like 11 out of 15 games this season. In two others, he got a D. - The Allfather Jan 8, 13:20 11
      - There has been talk of doing this but if Fields is as terrible as you say, who would take him. - zunk takes things literally Jan 8, 13:29 1
        
        Teams trade second and third round picks for QBs annually. It's the one person's junk philosophy. - David Jan 8, 13:55
      - I'd be shocked. And his stats don't bear out those grades. Keep in mind he had a sieve for an offensive line and 1 competent receiver. -- nm - pmb Jan 8, 13:23 6
        
        His stats show that he has thrown less than 150 yards per game this season. The league average is 220. -- nm - David Jan 8, 13:56 5
        
        Ok, but what's the league average for qb rushing yards. You have to look at the whole player. They were the number 1 rushing team in the league. - pmb Jan 8, 14:11 4
        
        Look, you're a fan, and I don't want to ruin your fandom. - David Jan 8, 14:29 3
        
        Honestly I didn't want to like him (he went to Ohio State). He has significantly improved in a short period. This was a bad bears team (hence the #1 - pmb Jan 8, 14:44 2
        
        I am watching the games, and I don't see the improvement. This was just last week. - David Jan 8, 15:17 [youtube] 1
        
        Yeah I don't find that play persuasive at all. It's the last play of the half. It's a set up he's never seen (nor has the guy in the video). Maybe - pmb Jan 8, 15:33
      - is that taking into account when they decided to call plays to his strengths rather than make him fit their play calling? - Beaker Jan 8, 13:21 1
        
        His last six passing grades from week 9 on: 58.1, 56.9, 59.4, 82.0, 49.6, 82.0, 31.7. - David Jan 8, 14:03
    - Trade him for the bag of baseballs -- nm - budice Jan 8, 13:19
- They're definitely not looking quarterback and have lots of needs, so trading back is likely. Though there are some potentially transformational -- (edited) - pmb Jan 8, 13:16 1
  - if they draft a D player at #1 everyone involved should be fired -- nm - Beaker Jan 8, 13:18
