Baegent is a backup

A rookie QB starting next year means our team is even worse

QB is the last problem this team has people. if you’re not supporting Justin Fields right now, you’re not supporting the Bears. Period. he is the quickest chance we have at success, and I do not want to start all over AGAIN with a rookie qb. and it’s just depressing to me that some of you actually want to go that route.

theres not one Bears fan that can say that Justin’s proved that he’s a backup or doesn’t deserve to be the starter currently. not one of you can say that he doesn’t still have an extremely high ceiling with all the talent hes showed.

this kids got seven games left, coming off the best two of his career before the injury. has he been perfect? of course not. but for all you haters, sit back and relax. if the man balls out, don’t say we didn’t tell you. dummies

Just because Fields is the best option this season doesn’t mean he’s the best option for the future. I agree that Bagent isn’t starting-caliber, but you would have to be grossly incompetent as a GM in our draft/overall team position to not take a QB this year. Bears are in an infinite loop they can’t seem to break with hiring a new GM, who hires their coach, who drafts their QB, but that’s on ownership. Trade or tag Fields, whatever, but the Bears are taking a a QB one way or the other. They’re not gonna pay him for how he’s performed so far when current management didn’t even draft him.
