And the midday show wanted none of it. Only stats matter, until they don’t.

It's more fun to be a victim

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

A wise man once told me that a donut with no holes is a danish.

I'm close to the center on most issues.

From a Dan Wiederer article:

In 38 starts for the Bears, Fields averaged only 174 passing yards. He had more than twice as many outings with fewer than 175 passing yards (14) than he had games with at least 250 yards (six).

Fields’ pronounced fourth-quarter struggles were noted inside league circles as particularly concerning. Coaches and front-office executives took note of his 64.4 career passer rating in the final quarter and a 53.4 mark in 2023 that ranked 39th among the 40 quarterbacks who threw at least 50 fourth-quarter passes.

Fields was also 3-12 in NFC North starts and 0-6 against the Packers with a 76.5 passer rating. He was sacked 135 times as a Bear with an alarming 12.1% sack rate while committing 19 of his 51 turnovers in the fourth quarter.

Fields went 3-17 over three seasons against opponents that went on to make the playoffs. He never exhibited the type of pocket poise, processing ability or overall command that typically is a prerequisite for sustained, high-level quarterback success.

It’s the Steelers chore now to address all of those issues as the Bears pivot with eyes on drafting Fields’ successor in six weeks.

Any mid day score fans will tell you Wiederer is racist and does not know what he is talking about. Tomorrow should be lit.

I’ll be in Vegas in June. I’m putting $1,000 on the Bears to win the Super Bowl this upcoming season. I hope to be laughing.

mason rudolph is the greatest QB of all time that has been bashed on the head by a helmet.

We lose a lot of rights when we look the other way when it doesn't affect our lives or it isn't a cause we agree with.

Steelers are already planning to extend Wilson.
So much for Fields being the QB of the future:

The Pittsburgh Steelers apparently would like to keep quarterback Russell Wilson in Pittsburgh for the foreseeable future.

The Steelers, who on Friday made Wilson’s one-year contract official, plan to ink the veteran QB to a long-term deal after the conclusion of the 2024 season, according to Gerry Dulac of The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

It means they aren' t grooming Fields as is the claim.
If Wilson tears up a knee or throws 20INTs that would be Field's big break.

Somebody made that claim? I’d say Fields is a low risk backup given how
little they paid for him. If Russ sux I’d bet Fields doesn’t replace him until they are past that draft date.

Yes it is.

When this is all over, which is not going to be for a while, Trump will be re-elected President.

He will get another shot this season. Whether it be Pitt or traded somewhere else. Not sure he will do anything with that opportunity.

The Bears did right by Fields and sent him to the best organization in football. He'll have an opportunity to compete for a job that he wouldn't have had in Chicago. If I were a Fields Cultist, I would be thrilled. Arthur Smith developed successful offenses for other failed quarterbacks and MANY consider Tomlin to be a top 5 head coach.

3 years from now if he’s even still with the Steelers “ OMG the Bears fucked Fields so bad by trading him to Pittsburgh where he has to face two top five defenses four times a year AND Joe Burrow !!!!they did him dirty again!!!

He will only be talked about if Caleb busts. If Caleb starts winning playoff games, no one is going to care about Bustin.

Like Kiper said, if all you ever were going to trade him for was a 6th Rd pick then you should have kept him. The Bears are in "win now" mode and are trying to accomplish it with a rookie QB whom many think isn't all that good. If Eberflus doesn't make it happen this year he's toast. If Poles blows it he might be done as well. Terrible move
