I donā€™t know. This is worrisome. I would think the vets would understand that a rookie QB will need time to ramp up on the field. If players seriously went to Poles / Flus about changing QBs, it seems to suggest something other than on field play is the issue

Remember when DJ called Caleb ā€œbossyā€ and everyone laughed it off? This makes me wonder whatā€™s going on in this locker room. Iā€™m surprised that little nugget isnā€™t making more waves tbh

I wouldn't be shocked if "veterans" is just fukking DJ. Lord Bagent gonna save the season with his 1:2 td/int ratio lol. foh.

I actually paid the lil puss ass 5 to watch the qb school vid on this last game. DJ is giving such garbage fukking effort. He either running his routes sloppy as shyt or half speed. We can theorize whatever we want, but the tape is right there. He playing like shyt too. Aint none of these WRS getting open. Half of caleb sacks are on him, he should just throw it away. but there be no one open on these plays. its almost baffling.

He needs to request a trade or stop being a mopey bytch. He makes wayyyyy too much money for all the goofy shyt.

I'd say his play trumps locker room issues.

How many times has Caleb made an audible or a check that was wrong that made everybody else look like ass? How many times does that happen before his teammates are like aight man, maybe you aren't ready. Pair that with him being so inaccurate, I can see guys looking around like you supposed to be nicer than this

:what: @prime AND KURT WARNER TOLD ME
THIS WAS ALL DUE TO WALDRON
AND THE OFFENSIVE LINE.

I'm putting it on the entire staff and the approach they set for his development.

Caleb has looked scattered far more than he's looked smooth. We all see it, the coaches see it, as do the players. That's when the OC and HC gotta come together and adjust to the personnel. The same thing was going on last season with Justin and Getsy started running him more to get the pressure off him. That happened after 4 or 5 games.

For the Bears to be on week 9 and the offense is still confused and awful, yea, heads had to roll.

They expected him come in and be GOD tier and making pre-snap reads like a 10 year veteran, and then when it was clear that wasn't happening they had no counter for the offense. The players had to tell Waldron they need to come out with the 1st 15 scripted, they really thought he was going to fix everything with his skill level and moxie

Maybe. I gave JF a lot of grace with all the nonsense surrounding him and this team I'll do the same with Caleb :manny:

DJ is definitely giving off hoe nikka vibes this season 100%

EVEN WITH ALL OF THAT...

ALL THE KID HAD TO DO
WAS BE ACCURATE WITH HIS PASSES
OR THROW TO THE OPEN RECEIVER
AND MOST OF THIS WOULDNT
HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE

There's so many things adding up to me that say they overestimated Caleb's understanding of the offense.

It's like those memes with people getting a job after lying in the interview and cappin' on their resume.

:russ:

Caleb had Flus, Waldron and Poles eating out of their hands. They were like, this kid really has it between the ears, he eats sleeps and breathes football. He answered all of the questions so well throughout this draft process.

So they start the season, and they go, this kid is so special, we don't need to script the 1st 15. He'll get the job done.

Let's give him 100% control at the line to check into whatever play the defensive look tells him to do. He'll get the job done

Now I'm thinking about how fast they reversed that decision for not scripting plays and I'm laughing remembering how the center got caught on the hot mic earlier in the year screaming, "WE'RE fukkING HOT MAN" after Caleb checked into a play that would have got him decimated.

But even with that said, Waldon still deserved being fired because if I'm coaching any sport and a kid is missing reads and calling plays at the wrong times consistently, I'm revoking those privileges

I've never seen a rookie do all that pre snap bullshyt so often.

it was cute at first but then whne it started to not work you have to say aight chill on that.

I don't care if the bears win out the year, tis better they don't. I wouldn't be upset if the new OC says go out there and find out what you can do. Its obvious floosy has coached the hot boy out of caleb. I don't think he threw a pass pass 10 yards on sunday :mjlol:

shyt these nikkas aint getting open fukk it. Force them to have to make a play. If DJ gone keep crying throw it to him after he runs one of his half ass shytty routes and force him to be his man thats blanketing him :dead:


shyt we will already be a more cohesive offense if they just give dj keenan routes and rome djs. Waldron so fukking ass

The way Poles is treating this, if he's so fukking handcuffed to Flus he needs to be jettisoned as well. Never seen the GM work around the HC like this, all for a shythead who's getting his third OC.

FIRST PLAY...

HE SAYS NO ONE IS OPEN.

1. SWIFT IS IMMEDIATELY OPEN
FOR THE CHECK DOWN

2. HE SAYS "DJ GETS OPEN NOW"
AS IF CALEB DIDN'T HAVE TIME
TO THROW IT TO DJ WHEN HE GOT OPEN.

3rd and 4th PLAYS
SWIFT IS OPEN AGAIN.
