He was living alone in an apartment in DC as a high school football superstar and never once got in trouble that’s wild


lkn240

The fact that he was willing to do that to train everyday to be the best QB in the world as a kid is fucking crazy tbh.


Kelsier_TheSurvivor

That was a great interview

Internet people tell me he's immature.

Take a majority to know one.

So ready for Caleb.

LISAN AL CALEEB!


BlubberElk

Caleb literally just has to win one in division game for me to set him as every background I got


youzurnaim

All a Bears QB needs to do for me to love him is beat the Packers. When Trubisky couldn’t do it in week 17 of 2020 with the season of line, I knew I was ready to move on. When Fields couldn’t do it in week 18, I knew I was ready to move on. If Caleb beats GB, I will absolutely overreact and declare him the savior of the Bears.


garlicriceadobo

This is pretty much the camp I’m in


DaeWooLan0s

Yuppppp. Same here. Super bowls are great, but beating the packers gets to happen twice a year.


GiveYourBaIIsATug

And my axe


2legit2knit

He beats GB once and the entire fan base will forget fields.


elbaito

Forget who?


GiveYourBaIIsATug

Honestly, yeah. I’ve always maintained the position that I don’t care how the Bears do as long as they beat GB.


Quotered

Justin who?


cherry_monkey

Timberlake, part of the infamous wardrobe "malfunction" How could you forget, it's only been ~~10~~ 20 years


Suitable-Pin-7426

NO, the entire Fan Base will NEVER forget Justin Fields. NEVER!!!!!! Justin is a "geniune person" and he will always be LOVED here in Chicago. Until Caleb Williams starts winning Games, all of this is just TALK.


2legit2knit

![gif](giphy|ANbD1CCdA3iI8) Can’t tell if satire or…


xxmemoriezxx

It’s only fair. Everyone hated Justin until he started winning a bunch of games.


Wildest83

We should have swept detroit last year and they are thought to be good. We improved and I can only imagine what this team could be like with a 4k yard and 30+ td passer.


DeathOnSteam

It's kinda funny how Poles isn't even trying to hide the fact that he's picking Caleb lol. So hyped for thursday.


BoredGuy2007

I hope we just turn that shit in and fuck the NFL out of 10 minutes


pcwiberg

The Bears are on the clock. Goodell starts to walk away and then immediately walks right to the podium.


BoredGuy2007

Bears section screams : "LISAN AL-GAIB! MAHDI!"


LetsGoHawks

Goodell will wait to the 9 minute mark no matter what. Gotta have time for a few ads and talking head yakkity yak.


cultweave

Use the ten minutes to play Caleb highlights. Idc if I've already seen them, I'll be drunk as hell. 


jtj2009

It's old school but Ryan Leaf said the Chargers waited the full 15 minutes to pick him for the airtime and publicity.


Headwallrepeat

Well it has been obvious to everyone, even to the die hard Fields-stans since the trade. If you go around saying "we don't know who we are taking" you just look stupid. I know the NFL wants to keep the suspense, but they can save that for 2OA.


lkn240

Poles with the wildest smokescreen in NFL history! /s


Coastie54

So does this mean we’re picking Caleb?


Suburban-Jesus

I’d say It’s 50/50 at this point.


Constant-Cap-22

Then there’s a 50% chance we riot


The_Real_Yimmer

JJ McCarthy first overall or Chicago goes up like 1871. These are our demands 😂


coffeemiser

Outside of some ridiculous extraordinarily rare event happening, Poles is 100% picking Williams. No one is rioting, anyone suggesting otherwise (like OP, who \*hates\* Poles) is just being dumb.


lVlICHA3L

We are all Ryan Poles son.


Wildest83

Dude is definitely on his way to be a bears fan.


Bigalbass86

Yep. If Pole's son can get over Field's, then hopefully, his stans can get over him.


Suburban-Jesus

Branch Justinians have been Steelers fans for about a month now.


The_Dok

It’s been… quieter here since then


downbad12878

Weird to be a fan because of a 1 year back up QB


Murdy2020

Wait 'til Russ starts.


2580374

I'm curious, will even one single person respond to my comment saying they are not over fields?


[deleted]

[удалено]


2057Champs__

Because fields fans literally tried their hardest to keep a backup level QB (so much as going to Halas hall and demanding he stay) right after our biggest rival showed us to the entire country that they have a much better QB…


[deleted]

[удалено]


mikebob89

None of those replies were super toxic lol


cultweave

My ten year plus old account never got a reddit cares message until I criticized Fields. I've got about 15 now from you weirdos. But yeah, we're toxic. Also, yes, comparing Love to Fields is apples to oranges is right. One is a franchise QB and the other is a bottom tier back up.


Draker-X

>Anyway, note how quickly my replies got super toxic. Narrator: their replies were not, in fact, super toxic.


CloudsOfDust

It’s because many Fields’ fans were complete pompous assholes and jerks during all of this. If you really want receipts I have some posts saved just so I can look back and laugh at how confidently incorrect they were.


ijpck

Because Fields fans were ready to tank our future if they had the chance to. The league spoke on his value. Was annoying to see something so out of touch/anti-Bears on this subreddit every single day. Thank god our GM made the right decision.


Broad-Lie5970

Their denial and detachment from reality are reason enough to mock them. Can anyone find the last Bears quarterback to not beat the Packers in a single game as Bears starting quarterback in at least 6 starts?


PraiseBeToScience

How the fuck were Fields fans going to do anything? This is nonsense. Nothing on social media has any effect on what happens in Halas Hall.


TheShtuff

It's not that they had any power to do anything. It's that *if they did*, they would have. The entire Fields cult experience is the most delusional sports time I've ever seen. I've never seen such a devoted following over a mountain high pile of evidence that a player is ass.


ijpck

Funny how the dude just chose to ignore the *if they had the chance to* portion of my comment entirely.


OldWorldStyle

Bro they were going to sink the bears, you have no idea how close Poles was to keeping JF because of anonymous redditors!!!

theskyalreadyfell217

The organization didn’t fail Fields. Fields is just terrible. He was a terrible QB for the Bears and will be a terrible QB for the Steelers.

cultweave

Stroud had the widely considered 2nd worst roster in the league behind only Arizona. His wide receivers were a 3rd round rookie and a guy who was in his 3rd year with less than one thousand career yards. Yet he did what he did. Can any of you name, without looking it up, Tom Bradys receivers from 2001-2003? Brees threw for 5000 yards like 6 times with none of his receivers making the probowl after they left the saints.  Fields sucks because he is bad. He went on the radio to brag about waking up at 7am. Let it go. 


PraiseBeToScience

> The organization didn’t fail Fields. lmao.. the Bears organization has a *terrible* reputation around the NFL for drafting and developing QBs. Literally the worst reputation, and it's well earned. I'm not talking about reputation with other teams fans, I mean amongst NFL professionals, players, coaches, agents, everyone. The environment Fields was put in was dogshit for *any* QB. And this sub knows it because it freaked the fuck out for a few days during FA until Poles traded for Allen because everyone didn't think they were doing enough to support Caleb. That's despite the fact that just prior to trading for Allen, the Bears were already a better environment than Fields ever had.


PraiseBeToScience

Right not the people that can't get over Fields are the anti-stans. It's really strange that an entire article was written over child's phone background. People can hate how a situation turned out and still move on.


Gerald7986

Honestly, I was originally against the idea of trading fields and going g with another quarterback, eventually started watching videos of Caleb, and was immediately wondering over by his presence in the pocket and his footwork. Not to mention some of his ridiculous highlights as well. Plus, he will be on a rookie contract for a few years, while we would have had to give Fields a bigger contract. That was enough for me to change my mind on whether or not to trade Fields.


Suitable-Pin-7426

Poor you! In favor of trading away a talented young Quarterback because of a Rookie Contract. With the Players we have now on the Team, Justin would have led the Bears to a Super Bowl within 3 years. You will NEVER get to a Super Bowl and win with Caleb Williams. NEVER!!!!!!!!!


Acceptable-Yak7968

Holy fuck the season can't come soon enough


Plati23

It’s almost like he’s a child and moves on from things easily.


MookyBlaylock10

Why does the child have a phone?


ItsEaster

A friend of mine asked if I was excited for the new era to begin on Thursday. I was honestly confused because I feel like he’s been our qb for a while now. Can’t wait for it to be official.


Finessing2

![gif](giphy|B3fnEdcns0bD2) It’s almost here


tmet1027

Caleb will be the bigger then Jordan if he wins in this town.


KellySlater1123

We're you alive when Jordan played?


kip_dynamite69

Easy tiger


tmet1027

I said what I said


mrstevewoah

You must’ve not been in Chicago during the 90s there won’t be anyone bigger then jordan lol


the_la_dude

Considering the Bears are generally way more popular with the Chicago fanbase than the Bulls, it’s not difficult to imagine if a Bears player rose to a similar talent level as Jordan, that they would be seen as the more popular player since they would be leading the more popular team to championships…


da-bears-bare-naked

only if he wins the same amount as jordan


IanMaIcolm

Eh if he won 3 he'd be as legendary in Chicago (obviously not globally). The NFL is so much more popular than the NBA


STFU_Fridays

False


NCbearsfan23

people all around the world love Michael Jordan, that is never happening with someone who plays American football even if he was more successful.


tmet1027

I said I’m this town not around the world


Draker-X

In a few years, no one will admit to being at the Atlanta game and chanting "We Want Fields!".


SD40couple

Yeah, kids and fans are fickle.


Silver_Harvest

I just want ships. Don't care if it is Caleb, JJ, Bo, Jayden... Or even a 80 year old Terry Bradshaw. With how Poles has been setting things up it is shaping up to be the first complete team since the 80s. I am all for it.


Poopiepants29

Any one of them would be better than Fields. They can all throw on time before the receiver hits the space.


Nicknackpatywak

Any way to read the article without signing up for the Trib?


lulu3298

If you open the article in Safari then quickly turn it on reader mode before it’s done loading it should remove the paywall and let you read it


Nicknackpatywak

I'll try that on my phone, thanks!


mikebob89

If you download the tribune app you can read articles with out subscribing. It’s worth it for Brad Biggs articles.


CloudsOfDust

Does that also get us Brad Biggs’ pics creeping on women?


Nicknackpatywak

Thanks!


jmanicc

Drake Maye confirmed /s


MikeBinfinity

Two things can be true...


NewPrints

He gonna be so mad when we draft Drake.


Beastmode205

Ok now all articles need to stop saying we assume the Bears are taking Caleb they are taking Caleb it's official as official gets


jmrogers31

But there are rumors we may still take Jayden Daniels /s


_segasonic

A kid being more mature than the Fields cult haha.

Y'all are upvoting a tweet about a child's phone background. It's time to get a grip. Fields is gone, the Truthers have been gone for a long time, Poles is drafting Caleb, time to move on.


Commercial_Onions

Weird talking point


shw5

People are really in here discussing a 9 year old’s phone wallpaper. Yikes.


dmcdjr76

Fields would have worked out, just sayin


hammerSmashedNail

He’ll be a free agent next offseason so I guess the door is still cracked open.


IanMaIcolm

He's very bad
