Rome Odunze Via ESPN:
“Especially with Caleb throwing the ball, there’s so many different avenues of the offense that we can explore, especially with the wide receiver core with such versatile receivers. There is no limit to what we can do. I’m super excited to get into the playbook and unlock the master plan that they’re gonna have for us.”
Matt Eberflus Via ‘Up And Adams’:
“We were going to take the best player there [at #9] and we felt that Rome [Odunze] was that. There’s nothing wrong with having more talent.”

I said this last year, I event sent it in a comment on the CHBO bears show, and they called me crazy, but I was correct: Team could come out of the gate slow. Last year i was 1000% sure they would. This year I'm not as sure they'll struggle at first.. but the main thing is we gotta understand that just because we are tired of losing, that doesn't speed up the team building process. Last year to expect a team, coming off a 3 win season, to add bunch of new pieces and come out firing on all cylinders was insane. Specially now that training camp is not what it used to be. People didnt understand this, and were convinced everything sucked and poles should be fired after 4 games. This year this team is far more talented and at least the defense has been together a long time, so I don't expect them to be bad early on.. buuut with a rookie qb, new O coordinator and all that, we gotta expect early bumps. Most importantly: I dont know about you, but I fully believe in Poles and what he's building. During hard times we gotta see the big picture and let this guys work it out

@landenroberts6710 21 день назад

Don’t forget bears fans the offensive line was #2 in run block win rate, #4 in pass block win rate, and #4 in total block win rate. According to advanced analytics we were pretty damn good. We lead the league in time until pass it’s hard to not have high pressure and sack rates when you’re holding the ball that long.

@iankane3732 20 дней назад

Yeah and in the games that tyson bagent played our line allowed the lowest sack percentage in the NFL. I think a lot of people are gonna be surprised at how good our oline is without fields making them look bad with his awful processing.

@landenroberts6710 20 дней назад

@@iankane3732 I don’t hate fields I do think he can become a good QB he just suffers from playing hero ball and at times his receivers can’t get open we had a pretty awful receiver corp about side Cole and Moore. I do agree I can see our Oline being a fringe top ten unit this year if they can stay in structure. My problem is one of Caleb’s biggest criticisms is the fact that he plays hero ball at times so if he has a rough start to his rookie season it could be more of the same but I think since our offense is significantly more loaded with talent and Caleb is a better passer of the ball that it should be better just might have some tough rookie moments.

@iankane3732 20 дней назад

@@landenroberts6710 I think Caleb played hero ball a lot because of how bad his defense and oline were at USC. He basically had to score 35+ points to win. He shouldn't need to do all that with the talent we have on both sides of the ball.

We have 3 young above average starters and 2 plug and play veterans, fields made them look much worse than they actually are.
