He has yet to log a season worth of games as he goes into year 3. 

Neither has Fields.... we would be saying this exact same thing if Fields was on our roster.... Fields wasnt a freak injury like Horn's injury. Fields has been injured bc he isnt built for the type of football he is trying to play. 

 

My god this message board would be eating fields alive right now if he had thrown for less than 1200 yards in his second season and never played a full season. Which is what has happened in Chicago this year.

I think someone will trade with Bears and grab a quarterback and don't think it will be Panthers.   Colts, maybe?

It's safe to say Young and Stroud will be gone early, I am hoping someone drops to us like Will Levis or Anthony Richardson.

Am I being delusional?  Is trading up our only option to land one of the top 4 QBs in the class?

Only Anthony Richardson, and maybe not even him, will last to nine.

Fields has played in 27 games and been available for more. 

Horn has been available for 16 games and played in 16

Those aren't the same.  A season is 17 games.  Horn has yet to suit up for a season worth of games over 2 years. 

and it's an old wives' tale that a QB shouldn't and can't run.   He is young with horrible weapons.  If you put him in a good position, he could run less.  It's not a Fields problem.  That's a Chicago problem.  And the more time he gets the smarter he will run.   But running isn't a problem.  It's a positive.

He is an elite runner.  Special.  And as a 2nd year player, in his 2nd offense already with bad weapons.....Fields had more passing TDs than the Carolina Panthers.  

Passing on Fields was an obvious mistake.  Always has been.  Nothing wrong with referencing it.  It was the right call and we blew it.  And it was the right call frankly regardless of what happens with Fields.  

if you need a QB....you don't draft a DB in the top 10.  Reason #4 at least of why we should get rid of our GM too.   Can't stay healthy is Jaycee Horn.  16 games in 2 years.  He has yet to log a season worth of games as he goes into year 3. 

Jaycee was a huge mistake IMO

Dude Fields just led his team to the 1st overall pick and you think he'd save this franchise? lol

Apologists will not admit they are wrong.  Fields is heading into year three with 9 wins in two seasons--so 4.5 wins on average and finished with the worst record in the League.  They are dogging the heck out of the Bears organization as the cause.  Fields is better than what he has shown, but he's not a franchise savior either.  Next year he'll get the Bears between 5-8 wins, still miss the playoffs and they have to go into year four deciding on his fifth year option. 

I don't think the Bears take another QB this draft, but if one's name is called, I won't be totally shocked either.   Like folks say here, keep swinging until you hit a home run.  Right now, Fields isn't looking like the home run so the Bears could take another swing.

As for us, Levis may still be there, but the most likely is Richardson is the only one left.  If that's the case and we pass on him (as we should) the Huddle will completely melt down.  A new staff can't wait until year 3 for a QB to maybe come into his own.  Richardson will need to sit a year--dude is SOOOOO green, likely two.  We don't have that kind of time. 

People said Trey Lance was under-developed.  It was true (along with injuries) and he's not going to get to show what he really has until year 3.  Somehow a dude that is more raw than Lance is the right choice? 

We stock up this year on weapons and take a rookie QB next draft (2024).

I think we’ll target Levis and trade up with Arizona.

Edit: Arizona’s draft slot jumped since I last saw it. We could get stroud if we work a deal with them.

Also, Young could fall pretty far because of his size. I don’t think he’s a lock in the top 5 at all.

      Chuba Hubbard is expected to miss Week 5

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I think Chuba is better in pass pro. I think Chuba does a better job setting up blockers, while Dowdle tends to just want to juke or outrun defenders. He has more big play potential, but probably won't get you the consistent numbers. He'll get you in more 3rd and long situations. Now I'm actually excited to see Etienne get more burn. That kid has big play ability written all over him. And he is NOT a punt returner.

      Luke Kuechly HC (Not Joking Faks)

      By strato · Posted

      Maybe had you put it that way instead of dismissing the guy as a ‘radio’ I wouldn’t have pushed back. I get that. At the same time, he knows the team, he is brilliant at film diagnosis, highly disciplined and would have the instant respect of any and all players in that locker room. Coaches too probably. It is hard to overstate how good he was and that includes the mental side.  I wouldn’t bet against him. Give him a couple of seasons to get the job down.  I shouldn’t say every, but I bet it is every… OC or DC that got a HC gig has said they weren’t ready for everything that goes with being a HC. Totally different than the job they had been doing, because now they have to deal with everything and they didn’t even know what that was when they started.  edit: I guess a point I am trying to make with him is, you can work your way up through jobs but when you get promoted the job is not just a higher level of the job you were doing, it is a different job requiring new skills.  The failed HC ranks are full of great coordinators for that very reason.  I resist the dogma of you can’t be good at that unless you were good at LB coach or DC.  To me, Wilks wasn’t a real good DC but he somehow understood that HC job intuitively.
