Who would be a good fit for Fields?

Good lord man.

known hair splitter.

any questions?

It probably wasn't coincidental that with Tate in the fold he had his only pro bowl season no?

Yes it is a coincidence. That was statistically one of his worst years. He made the pro bowl that year because it is the one year the Lions had a defense, so the team won. His pro bowl year was statically his 3rd worst of his career.

It would probably help Fields if the Bears defense wasn't bottom 5 his entire career. Yes some of that is on him giving them short fields...They're coming together late this season...and bam! wins!

The Lions D got better and Staffords record got better. Crazy how that works.

Stafford put up elite numbers while his team had a bad defense. Fields has not.

thus far that is 100 percent spot on

 

[Jiddy]

which wing in Canton is Herman Moore in?

The Harold Baines Wing.

I think the Bears will move on, but it’s not like Fields is trash. He’s gotten better as a passer, a new staff might help his decision-making, and with a change in culture he could be a winner.

For the Bears, first you want to look at the AFC, but all I see there is the Raiders and Patriots (two bad ideas - one staff too green and the other too crusty) and a desperation play by the Jets if Rodgers doesn’t come back.

The better fits are in the NFC - the Bucs, Giants, Washington and Rams (if Stafford hangs it up) wouldn’t be crazy, but the best fit IMO is Atlanta. It’s a conservative run-centric offense that’s doing okay with a poor QB right now. I think Fields could thrive there and that team would be much better with him on it. They also have no shot in the short term at having a bad enough record to draft a franchise QB, and trading away pieces to move up in the draft doesn't make a lot of sense for them.

Vikings also wouldn't be crazy, but no way Chicago sends him there.

If rumors if Eberflus staying come true, then Chicago with anyone but their current OC. Their defense got a lot better once Williams left, and ME took over, so maybe they just need someone even slightly competent to take over on the offensive side of the ball?

 

[DJ]

Bears?

Are we arguing they've had some kind of amazing track of producing qbs? Further Stafford had the same OC for 5 years who went on to OC in Dallas as well and was an NFL head coach for 3. Are we taking bets if Getsy is a 10 year NFL OC? This dude is literally making money off Aaron Rodgers.

Exactly....

LOL.

They are thinking about sticking with him?

Geez.

Geez.

I can kind of see Eberflus if the team is feeling good around him

but Getsy gotta go. Regardless of what they do.

Agree with that.

 

[eaglesnut]

No one is slobbing his knob. I personally have said at least 3 dozen times it would make perfect sense for Chicago to move on.

The irrational take is saying he's toast already in the midst of a 75 plus PFF season and a rating over 90 while having elite athleticism

There will be teams more than happy to give Fields a shot if it isn't the Bears.

People were burying Baker last year too. Funny he's very possibly going to be taking a team to the playoffs.

Lol holy shit. Maybe rb, wr, cb or safety then?

Muhlite muthleticism lol we're talking about quarterback.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

If Eberflus stays and they get a half decent OC, maybe they keep Fields and draft Harrison Jr. and maybe build up their Oline some more. Fill in the defense which seems to be playing pretty good down the stretch and go with that. They have a lot of resources and ability to build a good young roster. They need to get it right though. But watching Fields in the pocket trying to go through his progressions and reads is painful at times. The game just still looks too fast for him. When he's off schedule, he can make some spectacular plays with his athleticism but damn, somebody needs to teach him how to be a QB on the simple stuff. Allen, hurts, Lamar have all learned that and become top QBs. It should have clicked for Fields by now but I don't think he's had very good teachers around him, tbh.

you have lost 3 straight ATS until this past weeks closing line. However if you went cleveland early that would make 4 straight

To answer the question: Atlanta. Think Fields is from there also.

Before Sunday, heard a comparison that Fields has as many scrimmage yards, TD and INT in his last 32 games as Baker Mayfield and Carson Wentz have in their last 32 games. Would you want Mayfield or Wentz?

And for everyone clamoring for more weapons for Fields, please note DJ Moore had 3 consecutive 1100+ seasons (nearly 1200 yards in 16 games) with Mayfield, Darnold and Bridgwater throwing to him respectively. Moore still needs about 350 yards with Fields in the next 3 games (1 extra game) to reach that target.

Could it be coaching? Absolutely. But unless another coaching staff works with Fields, it's moot.

With Atlanta stumbling down the stretch, they may just draft one instead. Currently have the #10 pick, could potentially get Daniels (or be in reasonable range to trade up for him).

As far as Moore's stats, that isn't all on Fields. He's missed 4 games.
