California dreaming to lake effect legacy: 2024-2025 Chicago Bears 🐻 season thread

[Brozay]

there are some things that concern me with Caleb, but overall I remain confident in him
I would also be confident that he could handle a coaching & system change in year 2 if it comes to that

hes sharp and can pick up things quickly. The accuracy stuff is concerning though, Im also very surprised at his inability to make big plays down the field, I thought that was his calling card

he needs to start taking whats being given to him though, too many times the flat is open and hes hunting for big plays. Again, the accuracy stuff is concerning too

I still think there is a ton to like with him though. Waldron being a complete bust is really a huge miss though, we didnt have a year to waste here

Minor heat on a sleuther related to the agent thing here.

Hoping it gets more traction, so they're open to saner hires, but also to ensure Flus get canned. What way to prove you're not trying to staff a team of your own clients by allowing one to fire the other?

For me, Poles is a good GM, and I believe he's fielded better teams than the records indicate. I place everything on Flus, his excruciatingly poor staffing selections in A. Williams and Getsy, and Trace Armstrong who handcuffs Poles to Flus, and Flus to Chris Morgan.

I remember Nagy letting Fields gets eaten alive and thinking it couldn't be worse, this guy's too in his own coco to fukking think clearly. Now we've had Flus passing the buck to the people he's coaching up until this passed week. They ruined Fields, they're ruining Caleb, and because Poles can't yeet this Al Bundy knockoff into Lake Michigan we gotta keep enduring until the end of the season.

Warren has to lay the meat on the table at some point. This isn't acceptable.

My boy text me last night saying Caleb leads the league in non-catchable passes


Is that stat tracked?

I mean they not firing that denthead during the season so its whatever.

beat the pats, beat the packers and then we can talk. Caleb has to play better and the gameplan needs to help him out more. I know its cute to have him doing all that extra shyt but its not leading to wins so cut byke on it.

crodie need to come out this week with a efficient 2-3 td game. this pat team isn't that good and the throws are there

I kinda want them to lose out so Flus has no leverage to continue as HC. Poles went up there and sold the idea of "continuity" with a new, cornerstone QB. Continuity with the worst HC win rate in team history. They've shown the willingness to cling to this bozo. I do not want to leave it up to chance and unfortunately losing out is the key.

The problem is that kind of means caleb continues to be dog water cuz if he begins to play well again we are going to win more games lol. so i'm conflicted.

yeah i feel like im in full tank mode again just so they clean house

HE HAS BEEN PLAYING TRASH.

EVEN WHEN HES HAD TIME
HES MADE BAD THROWS, LATE THROWS
OR REFUSED TO CHECK DOWN.

WE NOT GOING TO PRETEND
THIS HAS BEEN ALL OLINE.

HE NEEDS TO BE BETTER

Kurt Warner says the same thing I'm saying Waldron and the oline isn't not on Caleb

I think everyone can share some blame, but mostly oline and wally.

very few qbs would suceed with such terrible line play and spastic playcalling.

The only thing I want Caleb to do is stop playing hero ball and just take the check down I am not worried about his deep ball Joe burrow deep ball accuracy was also a issue his rookie year

Burrow terrible down the field
