       Flopping really should be an NFL penalty. That was soccer level
       flopping. He barely bumped into him.

       Haven't watched the whole game yet- only got snippets during
       Redzone. But first impression is that Fields needs to be working
       with the number ones instead of the goddamn scout team. Nagy is
       genius.....

       Financially it was impossible to keep Fuller even if the Bears
       let Graham go.  Pace going all clown car on the Foles/Quinn
       deals hurt more than overpaying Graham.  Fuller's $20 million
       dollar cap hit was a Packer poison pill that forced Pace's hand
       as well after Fuller refused a paycut.
       It really was between Hicks and Fuller and the Bears choose keep
       the DL intact in hopes that Hicks stays healthy and a strong
       line covers up the inexperience in the secondary.

       What did we learn yesterday?
       #1.  Fields is not ready to start.  He needs a lot of work
       still.  The last thing we need is for the stupid ass fans to be
       booing and labeling him a bust him like they have done other
       first rounders that don't light it up their first seasons.

       I agree about not being ready to start, but Nagy wasnt helping
       him with the play calling either.  He kept calling running plays
       up the middle.  Let the kid do what he does well, roll out and
       pass.  And both Robinson and Mooney dropped TDs.  I hope Dalton
       is ok, and I hope Nagy doesnt get Fields killed behind our
       terrible OL.

       As much as I want to like Mustipher, he's got to be a priority
       to be replaced.

       FWIW, having seen the whole game:
       1. It was good to see the offense score on the 1st drive. It was
       not good to see them not score another TD the rest of the game.
       When Dalton went out, it appeared genius was calling the same
       kind of plays he'd call if Dalton were in. Not doing anything to
       his strengths. Maybe a factor of his brilliant decision to make
       him scout QB and not get enough work in with the first stingers.
       Then again, this just may be "THE" Nagy offense after all....
       2. Good to see Fields in. Not good to see the mistakes- but they
       are all correctable with practice. The false starts, the INT,
       timing with WRs etc. Receivers let Fields down big today.
       Excited to see what he can do if he's given a proper week of
       practice (and hope this current coaching "staph" doesn't ruin
       him).
       3. Defense was much better, except they are always playing with
       10 men on the field when Shelly is in. A post driven into the
       ground would be a better option- at least it has the chance to
       be in the right place at the right time at some point in the
       game.
       4. Lots of mental lapses, especially on D (Robber Quinn getting
       schooled in acting by a 2 year QB, Gipson foolishly taunting)
       all around. Hicks also got lucky he was not flagged for roughing
       the passer in the 2nd half with a dumbass shove down. When
       veterans do dumbass things it usually means they are not being
       held to account behind the scenes.
       5. That phantom PI on Kmet- wtf was up with that ?
       6. Nice to have to not mention any ST disasters. After the way
       they looked in preseason it was genuine concern...
       All in all a win is a win in the NFL, but as usual under this
       regime, they cannot put anyone away easily and have to make it
       closer than it needs to be. It almost feels like a loss. Genius
       seems **** away plays and drives on offense. Very inefficient
       over the length of the game. Not good when you meet playoff
       caliber coached teams.
       It could be worse at QB. Jets QB at one point was 5 for 5
       passing-  two catches by his own team and 3 by the other. And I
       cannot recall seeing 3 consecutive passes intercepted offhand.
       Wierd day indeed...
       On to Cleveland ! :D

       Other than Shelley, Gipson is the absolute last person on the
       field who should be taunting anyone...

       Jason Peters looks like he would play better if he lost about
       50lbs.
