He'll come out of retirement and be on the Broncos roster by the end of the year.

Recently, the Bears have been masters at having Quarterbacks that I just don't like. Caleb Willams is flamboyant as hell and extremely annoying. He also has too big of an ego for a dude that didn't even make the playoffs. I can't put my finger on why I hated Justin Fields, he just annoyed the hell out of me too. That might have been because it felt like the Media was constantly saying he was better than he actually was. Either way, it's the 4th year now where I am actively rooting for the Bear's downfall despite having zero personal connection to the Bears or Chicago in general.

Fields himself seems like a pretty humble and chill guy. I think he blamed himself a lot for letting the team down.
Caleb Williams is going to be a fucking handful though. He was trying to get a no-tag clause in his rookie contract.

Justin Fields is a perfectly servicable quarterback. Chicago fucked him over by expecting him to come in and be Patrick Mahomes, take them to a superbowl and save Ryan Pace and Matt Eberflus' jobs.
This is why Chicago is a Quarterback graveyard, Chicago will never have a good Quarterback, and Caleb Williams will be a bust. (And if he isnt it has absolutely nothing to do with the Bears organization or their development of him)

Bears OL was kinda getting manhandled by second-stringers in their first preseason game, so it might literally turn into a graveyard.

I know this has been said before but the fact that Vrabel lost his job and the Eberflu kept it is a National Football League tragedy.

Matt Eberflus was not employed by The Bears when Justin Fields was drafted. How did Eberflus draft someone to save a job before he even had the job?
Justin Fields, I really wanted to believe in him, but he couldn't read an NFL defense. Watch the all 22, he'd have multiple guys open and just couldn't see them or was scared to make the throw.
JF1 was an exciting qb, fun to watch, I was at soldier in person and saw him run for a 40+ yard td. It was awesome and exhilarating. But that's doesn't necessarily make a good qb. Nor even an effective field general.
Justin had a terrible PS game, and Williams looked great today.
Connor Bedard, Caleb Williams, fuck it, won't happen this year, but I'm feeling optimistic about chitown sports.

This was my favorite Fields moment (NFL site because I can't find this play on youtube.)
Fields revolutionizing the NFL with his 13-step dropback out of shotgun or whatever the fuck he was doing there. It's like he randomly forgets how to play football.

He can run really fast though. That makes him a serviceable qb.

I still can't believe that last year, NFL talking heads were seriously talking about how Fields was an MVP candidate.

You have to remember the vast majority of talking heads see highlights from all the games, at best, when they aren't just skimming statlines.
RGIII made it totally obvious when he went on a rant about the Broncos benching Russel Wilson and how he was still a great QB last year. If you subjected yourself to watching a full Broncos game you could tell Russ was beyond washed.
Smith's going to do a similar job of coaching around him and playing to the limited strengths he has left that Payton did, and I fully expect a "Russ good, Denver FO idiots, Steelers O-line bad" narrative will be rooted in place by early October.

Crackpot conservatism and lunatic liberalism are one in the same; both are annoying bullshit. I've said this a few times before but there's a healthy middle ground between Tumblrism and Westboro Baptist Church. In this particular context, I just ignore the NFL pandering shit. It doesn't affect me personally at all.
Plantar anything is horrible. I had a plantar wart suddenly appear on my foot in 9th grade, it didn't go away until a year after I graduated highschool- and this was after I had tried to treat it several times. It was right on a nerve so sometimes if I stepped directly on it it'd hurt to high hell. It was awful and I wouldn't wish that kind of every day annoyance on my worst enemy.
Fields is just a genuinely shit player, even in this particular play he had two guys clear as day open that he just... didn't throw to lol. He's bad to the point that Nick Mullens looks like a stud in comparison.

Considering it is their job to watch games, you would think they could do a better job. It's not my job to analyze football players and it's not hard to see how bad players like Wilson and Fields were last year. All of Russ's highlights were in the 2nd half when they were down 21+ points and the game was over. To most people, context matters but NFL players aren't the smartest to begin with and getting some brain damage during their career doesn't help either.

His crying racism as the reason for him leaving UGA is why I don't like him.
EDIT: Watched the Chargers-Seahawks preseason game. They need to keep Herbert in bubble wrap, otherwise there's no offense.

Trey Lance has looked like shit so far. We’re heading back to the Dave Campo days if/when Dak leaves.

The Trey Lance pick is one of those insane busts that somehow may still have overall helped the team that picked him. In this case my 49er's. It took a sequence of absurd events, most completely divorced from the pick, but it still led to two NFC Championship games in a row and then a Superbowl. I feel bad for Trey because he got injured so early in his first season as starter but he was clearly never going to be that good anyways. And now the Cowboys are stuck with him.
Maybe if we hadn't picked him and gone a different direction we could've won one of those years but who can really say. The record since the pick is still pretty great considering how terrible he personally was for us.

Russell Wilson is fucking washed, Justin Fields is a retard who could barely handle running a much simpler offense and reading much simpler defenses in college. And I am so happy that Mike Dumblin got them both, as both of them crashing and burning worse than the Hindenburg is probably the only way Dumblin's dumb ass is ever gonna get fired. And that's exactly what they're gonna do. The only thing that sucks about it is it will take 2-3 years of Fields burning before they give up on him and hopefully fire Dumblin
