Fields only needs to play 2 more games (I believe it's 2.5 games to be exact) to get the 4th round pick from Pittsburgh. I can careless if Russ plays after that but I doubt Justin is sitting anytime soon. They're 4-2 with him as the QB.
I think it's by snap count, so just playing 9 full games might not be enough if Wilson plays a more efficient offense

4-2 headed into the bye and then the next three games are @ WAS, @ ARZ, vs NE.

7-2 is probably a long shot as that would also mean a 6 game win streak to get there, but it's not exactly an impossible task either with those matchups.

I would be shocked if the Bears are not at least 6-3 as they head into week 11 when they host Green Bay. What a huge game that could be.

Swift has been stopped short of line of scrimmage 3 times in the last 3 weeks, after being stopped short of line of scrimmage 9 times in the first 3 weeks. Well over 100 yards from scrimmage all three games. And unlike the Panthers and Rams, the Jags statistically actually had a pretty good run defense until yesterday.

The Commies best defensive lineman, Jonathan Allen, tore his pec and will obviously miss the game against the Bears after the bye. Huge loss for them.

Wonder where Reddick ends up because of this, if anywhere at all.

I wouldn't be surprised if Lions go after him after losing Hutchinson

They need to find a pass rusher to replace him because options within are not great

Figuring out deal to make $ work would be issue but if there is a will to get deal done it can be done

Sounds like the Steelers are sitting Fields this weekend. Gonna have to hope for Wilson to play poorly to get Fields back on the field.
Can't say I'm surprised. I watched most of that game and Fields made some bad decisions that he got away with because of defensive penalties. And in typical Fields fashion he failed to complete some routine throws.

I haven’t watched but that steeler defense must be something else. Fields put up like 157 yards or something and they won again I think right? Pretty sure I saw that on the Telly. If you ask our famous twitch poster it’s all because of him though.

Best D-line in the league. It's crazy good. It has the elite player in Watt, like the Browns, Lions (until Sunday) and 9ers, but all other players on the line are also performing. Secondary is good too, though it's easy to play in the secondary when your line shuts down the run and gets pressure on the QB in pass plays.

Jets sure do like making desperate moves.

-----------

As for Fields, the Civil War Bears fans had over him has transferred to Pittsburgh. ATP, I can not see how either Fields or Russ will be QB1 in Pitt or elsewhere in 2025.

Fields needs to convert into a Taysom Hill kind of player to extend his career. He's just not a QB at the NFL level. With how big, athletic, and strong he is he could be a hell of a gadget player.
