Chicago Bears

[EastCoastCat]

Gee, what a surprise.

[Alieberman]

Yessss!!!!!!

[azgreg]

Nagy out.

No word on Pace or Sweaty Teddy.

[Chicat]

Ted Phillips wasn’t part of the announcement this morning so many Bears fans are hopeful he’s on his way out too.

Clean slate needed.

Who?

[Chicat]

Talk radio has been pretty unanimous that they should have gotten a QB guru (AKA a guy like Shanahan).

question for the Bears faithful

seems to be a mantra going around from the front office and certainly a direct message being sent to Bears fans that the team (more specifically the quarterback) has been set-up for success due to the shrewd moves made by Bears ownership during the off-season and into the draft.

it reads to me as odd and curious pressure to openly and willingly put such expectations and unneeded pressure on a young signal caller heading into his second year, but thats just my opinion.

"We're all in...we're going to set him up to succeed"

if he (Fields) has great success it was what he should of done, the organization set him up to succeed....and if he doesnt, well we did all we could and he still didnt succeed.

kinda chicken shit, non productive, and unnecessary if ya ask me....

does:

Equanimeous St. Brown
Velus Jones Jr.
Byron Pringle
Darnell Mooney
David Montgomery
Cole Kemet

make you warm and fuzzy about Justin Fields chances to succeed as a second year quarterback? apparently it makes the Bears front office feel good....good luck, Justin either way its your fault!

[Alieberman]

I hate being a Bears fan.

And a Cubs Fan

And a Suns Fan

And an Arizona Wildcat fan.....

No one in Chicago sees the Bears moves as particularly shrewd. In fact, most fans know this team has bottom-5 level talent even after the draft.

There are no expectations for this year. I think most people just want to see what Fields can do and they are hoping they get a full season out of him and no major injuries.

[97cats]

well i like Fields and i love a healthy Montgomery, i just dont agree with the Bears front office on their....

comment - plus fuck the Packers

[EastCoastCat]

That would have been the Rams line for last year.

[Chicat]

Yeah, the Rams went all in. And kept going all in throughout the year (OBJ & Von Miller).

The Bears haven’t done shit.

[Chicat]

Let the Caleb Williams era begin.

[Alieberman]

Just another bad Chicago QB

[Merkin]

[UAEebs86]

That may be the worst defensive play I have ever seen.

[AZCatGirl]

I don't care about the Bears, but we all know what shit coach David Shaw is. Have the Bears lost their minds?!

[Chicat]

Have the Bears lost their minds?!

It’s probably their token interview to satisfy the Rooney Rule.

[Alieberman]

When the Bears do sign their HC- can we just post that in the Depression and Anxiety thread to save me some time?

A new day in Chicago: The #Bears are finalizing a deal to hire Ben Johnson as their head coach, per sources. Johnson is set to fly there soon and contract parameters are in place. Barring a last-minute snag, the #Lions OC lands with an NFC North rival.
