Yeah, man. Scot seemed to relish telling me how we weren't really interested in Fields, per reports, but I told him that just because we weren't interested doesn't mean that Rhule and company didn't fug up. Of course it's preseason, but everything I've heard says he's been nothing but the real deal. 

We won't know if we fuged up for a few years, most likely. If the Bears are smart, they will let Fields ride the pine and let Dalton take all the shots while Nagy rides him into unemployment.

Scott is just doing the "pretending to not have an opinion but clearly having an opinion" thing. It's fine. He's been staunchly anti-Watson after the allegations started to come to light. I get it.

I'm not sure the door was ever really open.

All we've ever seen were rumors based on the idea that Tepper "would pay any price" and such, which was pretty clearly bullsh-t since Tepper doesn't interfere in personnel decisions.

The one story we've seen that actually addressed anything substantial came from Albert Breer. When he was talking about what led to the Darnold trade, he mentioned the team looked into Watson but since the Texans weren't even answering calls at that point, they decided to look elsewhere.

That's pretty much it.

There were more reports than that. Come on, Scot! Don't get selective with your reports. Like I told Kungfoo, you were all too happy to believe the reports about Fields...

If there was as little interest as you're intimating, then Jones and Person wouldn't have used the language that they did in their tweets.

How can anybody poo on Sams play last night? From what I’ve seen he looked fantastic. 16/21 2 TDs, no turnovers in a half of work? What’s not to like? That being said I’d definitely still be looking to get Watson as he’s a dramatic upgrade from Sam all things considered. Watsons never had a supporting cast or OC like he would have here. He could win the MVP if he’s actually on the field. That’s where I’m at. 

He played second/third stringers…is not to like.

Prove he assaulted women. You do know that women lie, especially when there is millions of dollars involved right?

There’d be some merit to that if it wasn’t over 20 accusations. That’s a pattern and it’s a problem. If we ever trade for him I’d have to reevaluate my support of team, and I would be far from the only one. Keep him the fug away

I don't think anyone is shitting on Darnold as much as they're keeping his performance in perspective. There were some good moments, but there were some sketchy ones as well...against the twos. I think for many people, we didn't really learn a damn thing about Darnold last night; we're still waiting for the season.

There was never more than rumor, and pretty much all those turned out to be bullsh-t.

I get that you wanted it to be true, but it's just never looked that way.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
