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.

    • Any QB worth his weight in gold is going to get his guys the ball. Of course he has to have the protection, coaching and experience to do that. Moreover, it has yet to be determined what type of situation this is for a rookie wideout. The most important thing that will determine that is coaching.
    • I watched it this afternoon and I thought some of the best discussions was before it even got to the players. One thing that really jumped out to me was when Smitty was asked about how things have changed since he played and the thing he talked about was how when he played and going back to Jerry Rice says, the #1 targeted or looked to receiver was always the X and there's still a lot of people who's minds are still stuck in that idea. But what has happened is that the, what he calls, the F receiver...the flanker...is now the go to guy. You need the X to try and get safeties out of the box, but the QB is now looking for his flanker most of the time. Lots of good discussions all through it, but for some reason the ones involving Ladd, Corley, and Leggette was the most interesting. Ladd was how he may be best fit for just the slot, but he's the best slot guy in the draft and he's just a guy who gets open and doesn't drop the ball. Corley and Leggette are playmakers who are at a risk of being pigeonholed. Leggette is too stiff to be a slot guy but he can do things like Metcalf. Corley is likely to be used much as he was in college, as the big playmaker you just get the ball in his hands however you can, but he's got a lot of room for development as a receiver. It's just good football talk all the way through  
    • I'd resigned myself to 2000 and never.   Cautiously optimistic based on this off season that 2026 is a real possibility.
