Agree. It was neat to hear the personnel side in that decision process. I feel for Fields. Even when he plays well he’s surrounded by coaching that can’t manage games & makes bad decisions. Where a QB ends up is so important for development.

This was a fantastic interview and Josh was an excellent guest props to him for answering really difficult questions.

They didn’t like Mahommes or Watson because they didn’t think off script ability doesn’t transfer to nfl. When you have a bad line and bad plays, sounds like off script thinking would help.

That’s because until recently they all wanted Brady and manning guys who’d check into the perfect and deliver a pinpoint ball. They didn’t want a farve a Vick a rothlessberger because the success of the play relied to much on the qb improvising or taking risks instead running the OCs plays

Not sure that it’s scouting rather than what they’re told to look for when scouting. All of these guys ignore Patrick Mahomes because they’ve been told to find the next Kirk Cousins. A game truly driven by players has been taken over by coaches & execs who “fake until they make it.” They utter the magic buzzwords to get hired & direct a staff in a direction that most execs don’t truly understand. There’s another good interview about the minute details of plays that Fields is running. It appears that the Bears are running some plays that were customized/adjusted by others for very specific situations that don’t apply to the Bears. But “fake it until you make it” coaches don’t realize they’re running it the wrong way so Fields has no chance of executing those plays unless he makes his own adjustments. The best coaches in the history of this game going back to Paul Brown & Vince Lombardi were TEACHERS. Today there’s a bunch of Madden players so the gap widens & the guys like Justin Fields are sacrificed & pushed into playing parts trying to get drafted high instead of falling to good teams like Dan Marino in 1983 going next to last to a Super Bowl team. These colleges need to have ppl help these kids look out for themselves when they declare for the draft. Instead, being drafted high by a trash team plays in to promoting the college & the player gets thrown under the bus if he can’t overcome the vultures trying to keep their jobs.

It's clear that Mahomes has fluid intelligence to be able to improvise and think on his feet while Mitch and Justin not so much.

Im sorry but if Mahomes came to Chicago, he would not be the guy that we know of now. He’d be a great talent, but he wasn’t going to get the high level coaching and had the opportunity to sit and learn behind a good veteran qb in Chicago that he got in KC.

Andy Reid turned Michael Vick into a good passer. Randell Cunningham struggled in Jon Grudens offense, got injured because they asked him to play from the pocket, then when he went to the Vikings, he found a system that fit him and he put up big numbers there. Steve Young was a bust in Tampa but Bill Walsh coached him up and he got to sit behind Joe Montana. We see it today with Geno Smith in Seattle. Talent does matter, but Mahomes has gave Andy Reid and Alex Smith all the credit for coaching him into the player that he is today. The most important free agent to a team is the head coach, then your o line coach. The team is a reflection of the head coach and qb, and the o line coach knows what the offense is capable of running. So the o line coach and OC should always be on the same page.

Thank you for pressing him on the decision to draft Mitch, and the thought process behind the decision... There was nothing about Mitch that screamed #3 Overall Pick. Then to TRADE UP to #2 was absolutely insane! Ryan Pace let some randoms rumors spook him, and he promptly set the franchise back... Take Pat Mahomes out the picture, Watson was the no brainer QB choice at that time in history. Not Mitch!!

I don't hear any of the Monday morning quarterbacks addressing the elephant in the room: the fact that the fan base and local sports media screamed for Fields to replace Andy Dalton. How might Fields's career arc have been different if Nagy and Pace had stuck to their guns and allowed him to learn behind an established QB?

As a twenty plus year score listener this is one of the best segments .

10:53 - This is what pissed me off about the Pace/Nagy era, they never had a back up plan! How on earth would you think that Andy Dalton would get through an entire season healthy with a Bottom 5 OLine? Why would you NOT have a base package for Justin ready to go just in case? If I remember correctly, Nagy barely gave him reps in the preseason, then gave him an open playbook on his FIRST GAME! They never had a Plan B, C, D with player personnel, no game plan adjustments, nothing!!

Great interview, but it isnt a smoking gun that these two players are bad. The amount of context we have for how poorly the team was run on the coaching level is damning against any attempt to lynch them. Remember that Mitch popped off in 2018, before other positions took a steep decline. Fields was rated top 5 in qbr last season for the last half while making baller throws and it wasnt just running that got him there. People who understand very little about the game will always jump to attack the quarterback first. Bills fans were going to hang Josh Allen for how bad he looked. Now hes a top 5 qb. Turn your tiny brains on and think through the context.

They didnt want Patrick Mahomes to be the face of the Bears. The fact it never dawned on them to talk to Watson is crazy. That staff sucked.

I just remember screaming at my tv when they took Trubisky over Watson or Mahomes. Dude started 1 year for a bad college team. Unacceptable and unforgivable.

I really loved Brock Purdy… And I even told the Bears in my mock draft, that they should drop some in the sixth or seventh round… I thought it would be a great back up or starting quarterback… Rosen spectacular but he’s plays intelligent football and he makes good throws… so in the next year I kept telling him about the Bears again just thinking it would be a great idea to have them in Chicago but anyway we should get a whole new coaching system if they don’t return next year

so, what I am hearing is that the talent evaluators of Chicago are notoriously bad. Listening to him tells me why the Bears have not been successful. How do you say that about Watson? In what realm is Trubisky better than him? And if Justin did not have the experience, why draft him? None of this makes sense.

So basically its hard getting picks correct. Many busted picks by all teams but best to sit a QB and have them learn but coaches get pressured to put them in by either the GM or owner.

I think maybe scouts need to start looking at players like Purdy instead of disqualifying them because of competition level, team profile, or combine stats. Seems that offense type and reps should be weighed more heavily on the analysis.

Chicago goes after the weirdest coaches. But what didn't make sense was talking mitch and Justin's college experience resumes weren't up to par but pat and deshawn had all the college reps and they passed on those two smfh!

Our worst fears realized. The sky could be falling with franchise QBs, but the Bears will go out of their way to find the one bust of them all. Insanity

While Patrick Mahomes and Watson still on the board, I wanna know what was said to convince Bears GM to move up a spot to draft Trubisky... what was the details that said, yep, he's our QB....

Someone, please tell me what qb the Bears have ever done anything for besides destroy their career?
