Maybe I’m getting old, but the biggest thing I’ve leaned from being a Bears fan is that the QB is not a save all solution. Go watch breakdowns by Qb School, Tim Jenkins, TTNL, etc. pick one. The Bears issues go far beyond just the qb. We have mistakes every other play. A different qb doesn’t solve our issues. See Tyson Bagent the last four games. Cj stroud looks great, but the mistakes made by the other ten guys on the field don’t get erased just because of his presence.

If you listen to people who know ball, the issues with this team have less to do with talent and more to do with coaching. Week in and week out we see penalties, missed assignments, and general mistakes everywhere on the field. Fans fall into this trap thinking a QB can mask all those issues. The ones who can are few and far between. It sucks but nothing is going to change and Poles’ biggest mistake was this coaching staff. They’ve made his picks look like terrible choices (some may have been), the money he spent this off-season look like wasted dollars, and failed to develop a quarterback with immense promise (you can dislike JF all you want but you can’t dismiss the fact he is the most talented prospect at the position we’ve had possibly ever). I’ve been here many times, boys. It truly sucks.
If you read the tea leaves, Adam Jahns has been not so subtlety hinting that the Bears seem to be moving on from Fields. He’s mentioned multiple times that people within Halas Hall listen to their podcast. Jahns is a great read and the podcast is a good listen whether you like those guys or not. I’ve learned you can get a feel for what’s going on within Halas if you listen to them enough.
