Yeah, Fields basically said what many of us here have been saying. Good for him. I hope he comes out playing good football Sunday. I'm going to be at that game with my family in Kansas City, Sunday. You know, it could be a better game than I feared if he does just come out being himself. Doesn't mean we will win. Doesn't mean he is the answer here in Chicago. But at least we shouldn't see the timid, slow-processing guy of the first two games. Only time will tell but good for him.
LINK Bears' Justin Fields points to coaching for 'robotic' play
LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields characterized his play in a 27-17 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as "robotic" and did not feel that he was "playing like myself."
A reason for what Fields believes is causing him to overthink in games, according to the 24-year-old quarterback, is what he has been coached to do.
"You know, could be coaching, I think," Fields said. "At the end of the day, they are doing their job when they are giving me what to look at, but at the end of the day, I can't be thinking about that when the game comes. I prepare myself throughout the week, and then when the game comes, it's time to play free at that point. Thinking less and playing more."
My guess is Peterman has been released so they have an open roster spot for other personnel moves. They'll probably get him re-signed by next Monday.
Peterman was QB2 this morning on the official Bears depth chart, and Fields backup. Now Bagent is QB2 on the DC. That tells us the Bears truly believe Bagent is gone if they try to move him to the practice squad... so he must have legit NFL talent in their eyes.

And if the Bears know one thing, it’s how to find a talented QB. 😜

You forgot one. Eflus tells him to recite the "Pledge of the H.I.T.S. Principal and repeat it to himself again after the snap... as Fields staggers back onto the field looking like a drunk Soldier Field fan. LOL, that was priceless.

+1 But not as well as the Bears fans who have already crowned the kid from the tiny D2 school, (the Shepherd Rams). LOL, he is 3 weeks out of his rookie training camp. Of course he should be a starting NFL QB. Oh wait. What? Shazam. Us Bears fans know stuff. Shazam.
One thing I do know. We do love our training camp heroes. Shazam, right? :-)

I'm going to edit that in. Totally forgot about HITS
Peterman being released probably has something to do with making room to sign some players bc of the injuries. Remember it's not just Jones that is out now.
