OT: Bears & NFL Talk 94

[Ben Grimm]

Bears expect Justin Fields to take next step as a passer. What does that mean for his electric runs?

Consider this less a change in philosophy and more a change in Fields' execution of offensive coordinator Luke Getsy's system.

Totally missed news of Bears signing Tyson Bagent

Honestly thought a team might take him late in draft but he went undrafted

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Preseason starting any second now. Here’s to hopefully no major injuries.

DJ Moore might indeed be good.

DJ Moore might indeed be good.

Pretty sure there was never a question. He has three seasons of almost 1200 reception yards and his two other seasons he was around 800. With... who throwing to him?

I saw somewhere that he had like 60% catchable targets last season. I'm excited to see (if this offense can move the ball in the air) where his stats end up this year.

 

[ChiHawks10]

This offense is gonna be really, really good.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

That was a run.

 

[ChiHawks10]

Lol. Some preseason rust apparently...

 

[Romang67]

See, this is why association football earned the moniker "the beautiful game" over gridiron football.

 

[bwanajamba]

Not a ton to judge the offense on today but I will take scoring two extremely easy-looking TDs against Tennessee's backups as a clear win

[EbonyRaptor]

Not much with which to assess JF1's game today - 3 completed passes behind the line of scrimmage - but better then incompletions or interceptions. So, a nice start.

Mostly good takeaways today.

 

[Section88]

Well the bears look horrible so far. Especially PJ Walker

 

[Clownish]

Neither team played anyone that will remotely factor into a regular season game. The Bears didn't play any of their top 6 receivers.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

That was a stupid end.

 

[plasmonresonance]

If Bagent isn't above Peterman, and maybe Walker, on the depth chart after those performances, I'd be shocked. He was poised, accurate and didn't hold on to the ball.

 

[Osmows OReilly]

How many games do you guys think the Bears will win this season? Is a NFC North division title possible?

NFC north title is in the realm of possibilities, as the Division is pretty weak. I think they probably win 8-10 games.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

I’m thinking 7-9 wins is our ceiling, with us finding hilarious new ways to drop both games to Green Bay.

And I don’t think that the division is in reach.

Who is obviously better than the Bears? NFC North is the central of baseball. A .500 team might very well take it.

 

[Mrfenn92]

I would love for a playoff season by the bears. But my number one thing is Justin fields being the long term Qb for this franchise. If he proves that then I’ll be very happy.

IMO, there isn't a single team in the division that is going to be better than the Bears.
