Bears

Bears run a lot of deep ins and outs or… that’s just a talking point?

An actual example of a deep out was Kmet’s TD catch against Carolina. The ball was thrown on a line over 30 yards between 2 defenders. You can’t call that play with Bagent at QB. He’s not capable of making that throw. He simply does not have the arm strength.

Just watched a few replays and that pass was great due to its placement. It was dropped in a bucket not on a line. I'm fairly confident Bagent can throw the ball 30 yards in the air.

He capable of making that pass. Actually his strength.

1. Bagent doesn’t have Caleb’s arm.
2. That doesn’t mean he can’t be good while he’s starting.
They can both exsist.

What the heck happened on the block kick? Santos and Roush sure didn’t look like they were expecting the ball to be snapped when it was.

There were a whole bunch of things that had to go wrong for the Bears to lose that game and they did.

Exactly. I’m also not saying he won’t be effective. I’m saying he can’t make all the throws Caleb can make. Doesn’t mean he can’t get the job done.

Not sure why this seems so difficult to accept.

Cause your example was bad

Alrighty then.

I think Bagent is very overrated by Bears fans.

I like him but he seems to do well in pre season but ***** the bed in real time

Based on what? Four games he started as a rookie he went 2-2 which is pretty damn impressive when you consider he was playing d2 ball 8mo prior.

I find it interesting that last year Loveland was brought along very slowly but two games in Roush seems to have a much larger role....and it is not going well so far.

Tom Pellissero is reporting Caleb avoided any major injury to his hammy and Bears are not ruling him out for Eagles. Which they shouldn't until they have to. I doubt he plays for a few weeks but sounds positive for sure.

Sounds like it's going to be a nagging injury all year and we shouldn't expect as much scrambling.

Ya, that certainly takes away a major threat in his arsenal, especially with a leaky OL at times.

 

[Silver Rain]

Which reminds me that I should be doing more hamstring exercises.

That ought to be interesting. Caleb a "pocket passer"??

Two separate plays Caleb drops back, steps up in pocket, makes correct read, throws a good ball and Roush drops it. The one near end zone wasn’t easy but you make that catch in NFL….but something something hero ball all day. He will adjust when he comes back, I’m more worried about the scramble for first down than the avoiding pressure and turning it into a big play. He’s gotten much better at seeing a lane and taking the first down from beginning of last year to now. I’ll also add, many times when Caleb is scrambling away from pressure keeping plays alive he ends up throwing ball away instead of the infamous hero ball or taking a loss. This is another aspect which he has improved upon.
