Only Pat Mahomes and Matt Stafford had higher completion percentages.
Completion % is worthless without context.
Going to be funny if one of Caleb Williams or Drake Maye turn into good NFL QBs and the Bears pass on them and Stroud in back to back years cause they were enamored by Fields.
Cool. Now let’s see if he can do it when his average depth of target is over 2.7 yards.
It will always crack me up how many Bears fans were worried we’d lose Getsy to a head coaching job. Turns out hiring someone that road the coattails of a generational QB isn’t the way to go.
Very generous to call them passes
“very long handoffs”
If you asked me to softly toss the ball half a yard forwards every play, I’d also make 100% of my passes.
all these stats being spout out today and none of them ever call out that he missed what 5 games then comparing his stats to league wide stats.
I mean the stat in this post is literally only about this week lol
His average depth of throw was like 2.5 yards lol
Only 10 of his 37 pass attempts were beyond 5 yards, and only 5 were beyond 10 yards. 16 of his throws were at or behind the line of scrimmage.
Two passes completed that had over 10 yards in the air. Fields was awful, but thankfully for the Bears Dobbs was even worse.
For 219 yards. Less than 6 yards an attempt.
Watched that game and really don’t think Fields is the problem
…Pat Mahomes and Matt Stafford…
I’m surprised that OP didn’t call him “Juss Fields”
Justin Thegametothrowpassesintheback Fields.
They had 4 takeaways and scored 12 points. He wasn’t exactly dropping in dimes 30 yards downfield all night. The Bears’ coaching staff doesn’t trust him to throw ball past the line of scrimmage half the time and I can’t blame them.
He can make the throws, he just holds on to the ball too damn long and ends up rushing for a +/- 2 yard gain, doesn’t show up on the stat sheet.
I mean that kind of means he can’t consistently make the throws. He has the arm for it - but he consistently misses reads and/or just can’t pull the trigger on anticipation throws.
It’s maddening to watch - every game there are too many plays where I’m yelling “throw the fucking ball”
Didn’t seem like it, he missed a few easy ones and left Mooney up to get smashed when he was wide open
So what you’re saying is we should have even more Bears prime time games next year.
