    This was a very good video. My husband has been a long suffering Bears fan. I grew up in Kansas City and never lost my affection for the Chiefs and I tend to favor them. Not into the Bears except that I wish my husband could have games to be happy about. He goes and watches with his brother and every week it seems they loose.
    This year both are super excited about Williams. I've watched some videos on him and he looks to be the real deal. His throwing reminds me of Jackson. For once it will be a fun year for my husband.

    ok, i like the video but i have to take issue with your analysis on the 2004 NFL draft.
    You said the Bears passed on Eli Manning, Phillip Rivers, and Ben Roethlisberger.
    Eli went #1 overall, Rivers went #4, and Ben went #11.
    Problem is, the Bears picked 14th. It was impossible for them to "pass" over these guys. You MIGHT be able to make the case for trading up to 10 to get Ben, but theres no way that Bears team is going to trade up to #1 or #4, especially with what it would have cost to get there, also the Giants had no intent of trading and I dont think the Chargers did either because they werent sold on Drew Brees going into his 4th year, and how Jerry Angelo very rarely traded up in the 1st round.

      I think passing over Lamar was worse, for everybody. Baker Mayfield, the Browns, & Lamar himself. The Ravens seem to resent having an élite QB (especially the cost). The Browns meanwhile chased after The Worst QB Option & over-paid him.

      If you want, I can tear them down. You remember when Mac Jones was discovered to be Seeking Advice outside the Pats? If Bellichick had responded to that With Silence we'd all know Jones was on the way out, right? Well?
      Fields called out his coaches publicly after week 7 of '22. What did *their silence* indicate? The Exact Same Thing. But because this indicated that the Bears were betraying We The Fans as well as Fields, everyone seems to have gone into denial over it.
      Well, let me remind you of what you "forgot" while in denial. 1) "The Bears _had to call_ for Fields to Not Throw to Certain Receivers on Certain Plays to simplify the offense for him because he Can't Read Defenses." That's the 'reason' Bears fans made up to excuse a play-call that had Zero Chance of succeeding. What's wrong with all this?
      First, obviously, if Fields can't read defenses, you're putting his life at risk out there. _Especially_ when you call for your o-line to ua-cam.com/video/FiiK21VzI_o/v-deo.html let all the pass-rushers through to him. He can't read defenses so he may not run for his life.
      2nd, how is forcing Fields to stop mid-play or mid-throw, read a player's jersey #, try & remember whether it's one he's allowed to throw to on that play _then_ throw simpler than throwing to whatever receiver he sees? A real head-scratcher these excuses y'all make up.
      2) The You The Fans said "Fields holds onto the ball too long." So now you not only forgot that he was ordered *By His Coaches To* hold onto the ball instead of pass it, it's his fault now. Or should he drop the ball instead of run away from the pass-rushers his coaches order his o-linesmen to run away from? Like they _told us that_ they were moving away from him. You think they spent the next 1.5 years calling plays designed to make their decision look stupid?
      3) One can't _unlearn_ to read defenses. So ua-cam.com/video/QuhUbISnr8s/v-deo.html *proves* he can now & always did read 'em which means that there is No Excuse for calling plays with zero chance of success. Also in weeks 8-10 of '22 & weeks 11, 14-17 of '23 different play sets were called in which Fields was far more efficient & scored more points. The 3-game streak in '22 he led the Entire NFL in offense proving it was _only_ the play-calling holding him back as he played up with Allen, Mahomes & Burrow when the play0-calling changed.
      The last thing is someone spliced Fields' college highlights into a video with Caleb Williams'. It's no surprise to me, but what do you know? Fields ua-cam.com/video/5JO1PsupF_U/v-deo.html is a better rusher _AND_ more accurate passer who scrambles & makes throws on the run & at weird arm angles better in the NFL than Caleb has done so far in college.
      This team is _great!_

    As a Bears fan I will come right out and say it. They have an ownership problem! This is where players and coaches come to die. They can't draft well. The scout's evaluation of the talent is poor. Playing quarterback for the Bears is like a suicide mission. They have lacked an offensive line for 2 decades. Sure, we could have drafted better as the video shows, but those more recent picks would not have florished here. It would have been more of the same, injuries upon injuries. If you can't protect your quarterback, you have nothing....

    • @DianeLake-sw3ym
      @DianeLake-sw3ym 15 днів тому

      I wondered about this. While I don't watch the Bears, it's my husband's team, I have said to him it is the front office that is the problem. The talent scouting, the guys in charge of who to pick, that the Bears cannot assess talent.
      I grew up in KC. I grew up with the Chiefs. My team. I watched a video about the guy who discovered Mahomens. In 2017, Veech was the guy watching the tapes and the talent. He was suppose to assess a guy on the same team at Texas Tech as Mahomes. He found himself drawn to the QB. He began a campaign for getting this kid. But, it was a year before Mahomes even declared. Still, Veech wanted him and told Andy Reid he was the next Goat. So when he declared the Chiefs were sold on him and move mountains to get him. The only real thing in their way was the Bears. They had the 2nd draft pick and The Chiefs traded big stuff to get to 10th pick. Breath was held until the Bears announced Trubitski.
      The Bears long needed a Veech in their scouting and then listen to him.

The part that's most troubling though isn't the PERSON playing the position....but the way this franchise coaches and treats this position. I truly believe the Bears have had some great players come in to play in Chicago....and were cut down at the knees by horrendous play calling and overall game strategy. I don't think Aaron Rogers or Patrick MaHomes would have had the careers they've had....if they ended up with the Bears. We'll see if this changes with Caleb....but as someone who's seen this many times before.... they'll have to prove it before I'll believe it.

      I think you're kind of right, but it's worth pointing out that 2 of their last 4 coaches were offensive-minded coaches, and 3 of the 8 coaches they've had since 1980 were offensive-minded.
      They skew defensive, but not drastically.
      I certainly won't claim that Trestman and Nagy were offensive geniuses, but they were at least offensive guys.

    I’m a bit torn with the Bears offloading a QB they drafted in Rd 1 to take another prospect. The Bears don’t do much in the field of QB development from what I’ve seen over the years. I believe this is why they are constantly looking for that franchise QB. I also can’t 100% put the blame on the QBs because in the modern era their offensive line hasn’t exactly been spectacular while at the same time running into injuries. It makes for a terrible situation with Bears QBs. Is Caleb really the answer? No, unless they can find a way to develop what many say is a generational talent.

    Your analysis and history is very informative and I do appreciate it, but in all honesty, they are going to be continue looking for another quarterback in just a couple years because Caleb Williams is not it. All you have to do is realize the town he had around him when he was at college and the fact that he had such superior howling compared to teams he was facing and still fell short of what was expected at the minimum. The guy may be a generational talent between his arm and his legs, but he cracks under pressure if his line is not very good he’s panicking and not making good decisions and then not to mention he is not exactly the best forgiven his wide receivers, great opportunities, in coverage.

    Good video overall but you missed a couple things on the Fields analysis. Dalton was signed first and only signed there because he was promised the starting job. They had no idea they’d be able to draft a qb but made a horrible desperation trade when Fields dropped because Pace and Nagy were lame ducks and thought a young qb might buy them more time. Dalton was not brought in to mentor anyone, but it came out recently that when he and Foles did try to be good teammates and give Fields some pointers he had no interest.
    “Faulty pass protection” - the line has been ranked top 10 both of the last 2 years in ESPN pass block win rate%. I’m not making that up, anyone can look it up. That stat measures how often the line holds their blocks for 2.5 sec, when most good qbs have the ball out of there. But as we all know Fields holds the ball for-fing-ever and only got slightly better over time at sensing pressure and/or throwing the ball away. Sorry not sorry to bust everyone’s bubble but most of the sacks were on him.
    Looking forward to more of your videos.

      I just hope for the Bears' sake that Caleb isnt just Fields 2.0. No doubt this comment will get some backlash, but if you want to see something interesting, look up the long list of USC QBs that have been drafted into the NFL. They were all busts, some of them terrible terrible busts, and all of them highly regarded in scouting reports. The ONE exception being Carson Palmer, who although had a long and fairly consistent career, didnt achieve the HoF, nor will he. That's the only one (You can say Hayden, I disagree). USC has a long history of being a very QB friendly system, and an equally long history of those QBs not being nearly as good in the NFL as they looked in college.
      It's not just Darnold, Kessler, Sanchez, Barkley, Leinart or Cassel either. It's a long and storied list. Does that mean Caleb will follow suit? Who knows. Just saying drafting stud QBs from that system has had a very low percentage success rate.

    It's hard to complete passes when you're dodging the entire front line of the other team. The Bears are famous for not having a decent front line. Even McMahon had that problem and ended up with a lacerated kidney and repeated concussions. He currently is suffering from CTE as a result of repeated brain trauma. The pad that all quarterbacks wear around their waists and middle was first introduced for McMahon to protect his kidney and ribs. Even a mediocre quarterback can have a decent game if he isn't getting pounded into the turf play after play. It used to irritate the heck out of me when critics would call McMahon "brittle." He took some incredibly strong hits.

    The Bears quarterback carousel wasn't completely the quarterback's fault. For any QB to be successful the team needs a strong offensive line and some good receivers. Plus, an offensive coordinator who maximizes the talent available. Too many Bear teams focused on the defense while ending up with a strong running game and little passing. Hopefully Caleb Willians will change that in 2024.

    I do believe McMahon deserved that Pro Bowl in '85. While he didn't put up the biggest counting stats, he had the seventh-best passer rating in the NFL, including the second best in the NFC. Possibly the main reason his counting stats aren't that big is because the Bears kept blowing out opponents in games that were usually over by the end of the third quarter, they ran the ball more to chew clock and potentially limit mistakes. Only one of his touchdown passes was in the fourth quarter, and it was early in that quarter, and they were up 13, which it is definitely possible to come back from.

Three years of this Poles GM we've had ONE real investment on the OL and what they're doing with Caleb right now is nothing different than in the past where QBs careers died. It is never about the QB it is more about what is surrounding it, but this media consumed big market fanbase keeps wanting a wash and cycle at QB position while nothing is established on the offense to begin with. And the owners take advantage of these casual Chicago fans just for the ticket and jersey sales. this team will never be built for championship contention, but rather for media hype and a random playoff appearance maybe once in 8 years.
