Passing over Rodgers was like the Browns passing over Roethlisberger as the guy each passed over went on to personally torture that team and the fanbase for many many years.
I think passing over Lamar was worse, for everybody. Baker Mayfield, the Browns, & Lamar himself. The Ravens seem to resent having an élite QB (especially the cost). The Browns meanwhile chased after The Worst QB Option & over-paid him. All of this could have been avoided had they chosen Lamar.
cabal williams could be another in a long line of BUSTS for the bears. cabal whining over his rookie contract is not a good sign, as this many times indicates a player that has little interest in the game....only money.

If you want, I can tear them down. You remember when Mac Jones was discovered to be Seeking Advice outside the Pats? If Bellichick had responded to that With Silence we'd all know Jones was on the way out, right? Well? Fields called out his coaches publicly after week 7 of '22. What did *their silence* indicate? The Exact Same Thing. But because this indicated that the Bears were betraying We The Fans as well as Fields, everyone seems to have gone into denial over it. Well, let me remind you of what you "forgot" while in denial. 1) "The Bears _had to call_ for Fields to Not Throw to Certain Receivers on Certain Plays to simplify the offense for him because he Can't Read Defenses." That's the 'reason' Bears fans made up to excuse a play-call that had Zero Chance of succeeding. What's wrong with all this? First, obviously, if Fields can't read defenses, you're putting his life at risk out there. _Especially_ when you call for your o-line to ruclips.net/video/FiiK21VzI_o/видео.html let all the pass-rushers through to him. He can't read defenses so he may not run for his life. 2nd, how is forcing Fields to stop mid-play or mid-throw, read a player's jersey #, try & remember whether it's one he's allowed to throw to on that play _then_ throw simpler than throwing to whatever receiver he sees? A real head-scratcher these excuses y'all make up. 2) The You The Fans said "Fields holds onto the ball too long." So now you not only forgot that he was ordered *By His Coaches To* hold onto the ball instead of pass it, it's his fault now. Or should he drop the ball instead of run away from the pass-rushers his coaches order his o-linesmen to run away from? Like they _told us that_ they were moving away from him. You think they spent the next 1.5 years calling plays designed to make their decision look stupid? 3) One can't _unlearn_ to read defenses. So ruclips.net/video/QuhUbISnr8s/видео.html *proves* he can now & always did read 'em which means that there is No Excuse for calling plays with zero chance of success. Also in weeks 8-10 of '22 & weeks 11, 14-17 of '23 different play sets were called in which Fields was far more efficient & scored more points. The 3-game streak in '22 he led the Entire NFL in offense proving it was _only_ the play-calling holding him back as he played up with Allen, Mahomes & Burrow when the play0-calling changed. The last thing is someone spliced Fields' college highlights into a video with Caleb Williams'. It's no surprise to me, but what do you know? Fields ruclips.net/video/5JO1PsupF_U/видео.html is a better rusher _AND_ more accurate passer who scrambles & makes throws on the run & at weird arm angles better in the NFL than Caleb has done so far in college. This team is _great!_
Its funny. Im not a bears fan, but I never saw them as one of the worst franchises. It was always baffling how they continued to screw at QB. Even more so than the lions did for years. They're really a representation of how far defense and a strong run game can take you.

If you keep this content up it’s only a matter of time for you to get more noticed. I get to say I was here when you were a smaller channel 🤭
Just want to echo what everyone else here is saying. Incredible work, quality is right up there with docus from NFL Films and ESPN. Ready to watch you speed run 1,000,000 subscribers.
This was amazing, great work! As a bears fan, I am cautiously optimistic about Williams. Although as you have pointed out in the video, this isn’t the first time I have thought that ‘we found our guy’. I hope he is different!
Justin Fields was not the “wrong” QB, the team was never built for him to succeed, the offense was never stable (he literally had a new coach every year)
Dreadful front office is the problem that's been the curse. Not just bad coaching. Bad recruitment look at the list of QBs they past up on. Jim Finks was the best GM bears have had. He even past up greats QBs like Dan Marino. Ryan Poles would have drafted him & Rodgers. Poles is different. Caleb Williams time.
It goes one level higher than the front office. The TEAM OWNERS don't care. The Halas-McCaskey family have been coasting off their ONE Super Bowl win from 40 years ago. The only thing will save the Bears is to sell the team.
Speaking as a bears fan. The problem with the bears starts at the top and I fear that we won't see any kind of success until the mccaskeys sell the team
@@BeepsAndBeats I liked Fields. I thought all of his issues with holding the ball too long and reading a defense better could've been fixed but we had an incompetent coaching especially OC Luke Getsy at the time. He might be the worst OC the Bears have had in my lifetime.
It's the same with every Chicago sports team owner. Fans go to GL the games regardless of how the team performs and it's how owners keep getting away with such lackluster products
Soooo good! Your editing and narration are awesome. While the Bears have struggled, hopefully they are heading in the right direction and their new face of the franchise can turn things around! Thanks for a great video and can’t wait to see what you post next!
It never fails to irritate me when McMahon is spoken of like he was a winner by circumstance. When I go back and watch the '85 games (all are online, except Game 3 (???...) I see one darn good QB in McMahon. That guy was a heck of a QB, I don't care what anybody says. I've been watching them most of my 60 years, there have been a few truly bad ones.
I think a big problem with the Bears is the team tends to hire defensive minded head coaches vs coaches with an offensive mindset who could draft and develop its quarterback. The Packers traded for Farve and drafted Rodgers and Love…but since the 90s the Packers have hired offensive minded coaches.
I think you're kind of right, but it's worth pointing out that 2 of their last 4 coaches were offensive-minded coaches, and 3 of the 8 coaches they've had since 1980 were offensive-minded. They skew defensive, but not drastically. I certainly won't claim that Trestman and Nagy were offensive geniuses, but they were at least offensive guys.
It's hard to complete passes when you're dodging the entire front line of the other team. The Bears are famous for not having a decent front line. Even McMahon had that problem and ended up with a lacerated kidney and repeated concussions. He currently is suffering from CTE as a result of repeated brain trauma. The pad that all quarterbacks wear around their waists and middle was first introduced for McMahon to protect his kidney and ribs. Even a mediocre quarterback can have a decent game if he isn't getting pounded into the turf play after play. It used to irritate the heck out of me when critics would call McMahon "brittle." He took some incredibly strong hits.
So Williams is a great talent he has showed that in high school and college as a life long Bears fan since the early 80s I hope he is that guy ..But my guy is Ryan Poles he hands down changed the culture and I trust in Poles ..BEARDOWN BABY
INSANE.......where did this first team football team come from haha? this feels like an ESPN 30//30 documentary.....good work gentlemen. I am now avidly waiting for y'alls next video
Great video! As a Bears fan I will come right out and say it. They have an ownership problem! This is where players and coaches come to die. They can't draft well. The scout's evaluation of the talent is poor. Playing quarterback for the Bears is like a suicide mission. They have lacked an offensive line for 2 decades. Sure, we could have drafted better as the video shows, but those more recent picks would not have florished here. It would have been more of the same, injuries upon injuries. If you can't protect your quarterback, you have nothing....
I wondered about this. While I don't watch the Bears, it's my husband's team, I have said to him it is the front office that is the problem. The talent scouting, the guys in charge of who to pick, that the Bears cannot assess talent. I grew up in KC. I grew up with the Chiefs. My team. I watched a video about the guy who discovered Mahomens. In 2017, Veech was the guy watching the tapes and the talent. He was suppose to assess a guy on the same team at Texas Tech as Mahomes. He found himself drawn to the QB. He began a campaign for getting this kid. But, it was a year before Mahomes even declared. Still, Veech wanted him and told Andy Reid he was the next Goat. So when he declared the Chiefs were sold on him and move mountains to get him. The only real thing in their way was the Bears. They had the 2nd draft pick and The Chiefs traded big stuff to get to 10th pick. Breath was held until the Bears announced Trubitski. The Bears long needed a Veech in their scouting and then listen to him.
This is what I wanted from tv! Which they delivered some, but not without irritating me😁 Please keep it up, no matter how long it takes! Subbed 👍👍👍 It's like corporate forgot how to people. Glad there's so many sports guys on YT. Gorgeous video!
@@firstteamfootball Absolutely; well deserved! Discovering the sports people on YT has been amazing, and this was such a great video. Keep it up; I look forward to it all💪✌️🖖
It amazes me as to how many QBs this organization has gone through. As the old saying goes hindsight is 20/20. You look back at all the missed opportunities at the QB position and you shake your head. Now we enter the Williams Era and I for one am optimistic and look forward to staying with one QB for the next decade. Bear down. Great video.
Sadly as a Bears fan....I know first hand of the mediocrity (at best) at the QB position. The part that's most troubling though isn't the PERSON playing the position....but the way this franchise coaches and treats this position. I truly believe the Bears have had some great players come in to play in Chicago....and were cut down at the knees by horrendous play calling and overall game strategy. I don't think Aaron Rogers or Patrick MaHomes would have had the careers they've had....if they ended up with the Bears. We'll see if this changes with Caleb....but as someone who's seen this many times before.... they'll have to prove it before I'll believe it.
Great video, as a Bears fan, our seemingly eternal QB struggles been a truly maddening thing to deal with over the years... When we drafted Fields, I thought we might finally have our guy, but that didn't work out either. With our improving defense and the weapons we have at all of the skill positions on offense, hopefully Williams will finally be the one to lead us out of QB purgatory. My main worry is the o-line as they've been far less than spectacular the last few years.
This was a very good video. My husband has been a long suffering Bears fan. I grew up in Kansas City and never lost my affection for the Chiefs and I tend to favor them. Not into the Bears except that I wish my husband could have games to be happy about. He goes and watches with his brother and every week it seems they loose. This year both are super excited about Williams. I've watched some videos on him and he looks to be the real deal. His throwing reminds me of Jackson. For once it will be a fun year for my husband.
I’m a bit torn with the Bears offloading a QB they drafted in Rd 1 to take another prospect. The Bears don’t do much in the field of QB development from what I’ve seen over the years. I believe this is why they are constantly looking for that franchise QB. I also can’t 100% put the blame on the QBs because in the modern era their offensive line hasn’t exactly been spectacular while at the same time running into injuries. It makes for a terrible situation with Bears QBs. Is Caleb really the answer? No, unless they can find a way to develop what many say is a generational talent.
you don’t really develop qbs or any players. you give them playing time. 3 years is more than enough to know that JF has no idea what he is doing out there.
Lifelong Bears fan, lotta hurt in this vid. I remember being optimistic of Rex Grossman LOL I was fully bought in on Fields, he's gone now. hopefully Caleb Williams is that guy cuz if i have to hear Jordan Love saying "I still own you" in 10 to 15 years I'm going to lose my marbles Excellent Video all said, liked and subscribed
The most beautiful yet painful thing about football is the hope that it brings. Caleb may very well be the answer to decades of waiting. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for the sub!
Grossman should have been a great QB but after that initial injury, he lost most of his mobility and had to resort to becoming a pocket passer. Was never his style of play in college at Florida. Watch some of his old college films and you will see what I’m trying to indicate.
Careful with that. Bryce Young was the clear no°1 pick last year, nobody could've blamed the Panthers for drafting him. Now they've dropped him just into his second season in favour of Andy Dalton... Drafting is a lottery. Keep that in mind whenever you're trading up^^
Thank God they decided to take the best prospect instead of passing up on him again. Many wanted to keep Fields. They FINALLY broke the cycle. Caleb is a leader and has the same winning attitude that Derrick Rose had when he was the youngest to ever win the MVP award. LETS FREAKING GO!!!!🐻⬇️ Subbed and shared on facebook. Hope you get more followers. Bears defense looks dominant again. Maybe you can make a video on the history of the Bears defense.
yaa. looking back at history, many fans wanted to foolishly do what the bears have done for 40 years. keep an awful qb and hope he magically gets better.
I do believe McMahon deserved that Pro Bowl in '85. While he didn't put up the biggest counting stats, he had the seventh-best passer rating in the NFL, including the second best in the NFC. Possibly the main reason his counting stats aren't that big is because the Bears kept blowing out opponents in games that were usually over by the end of the third quarter, they ran the ball more to chew clock and potentially limit mistakes. Only one of his touchdown passes was in the fourth quarter, and it was early in that quarter, and they were up 13, which it is definitely possible to come back from.
I was a senior In high school for 85 bears...All the games(except Miami ..Minnesota) were over at half time... that D instilled fear in the other team .the O jess punched em in the face with 34 and suhey the rest of the game.not a lot of passing stats..lots of long time consuming drives...real football.
Im not gonna say he doesn’t have flaws but the bears organization didn’t really do him any justice in developing him. To dump him after you finally build a team just doesn’t sit right and we still have to see how they perform
@@dylanbaker9394 the unfortunate business side of the NFL. Justin was a superstar playmaker, but consistently showed he could not elevate those around him. Once you pay him, the ability to surround him with bonafide talent becomes more difficult. He didn't really prove that he would be able to put the team on his back in that situation. Instead, we now have Rome, Caleb, Cole, and DJ locked down for the next 4-5 years with plenty of space to sign/re-sign blue chippers.
@@hellonocap7315I think we would’ve had something similar minus Keenan. What’s crazy is thinking Justin was gonna demand top of the market money when he’d have no leverage in doing so. The way I see it, poles was better off letting him go after he almost broke the single season rushing especially if he wasn’t planning on building around him. I like what the surrounded Caleb with but it’s still looking like it’s gone be some issues on the oline yet again
Honestly, McMahon was an above average quarterback. People talk about him as if he was a run of the mill, satisfactory QB with nothing special or noteworthy around him, who succeeded because he played on a team that made it easy for him. And while I agree that Jim was never a star caliber quarterback, he was better than people give him credit for. He was a pretty talented player.
The Bears QB problems are, not consistently drafting great receivers, tight ends and having a great offensive line. Not hiring offensive minded GMs, they always hire defensive minded GMs.
Good video overall but you missed a couple things on the Fields analysis. Dalton was signed first and only signed there because he was promised the starting job. They had no idea they’d be able to draft a qb but made a horrible desperation trade when Fields dropped because Pace and Nagy were lame ducks and thought a young qb might buy them more time. Dalton was not brought in to mentor anyone, but it came out recently that when he and Foles did try to be good teammates and give Fields some pointers he had no interest. “Faulty pass protection” - the line has been ranked top 10 both of the last 2 years in ESPN pass block win rate%. I’m not making that up, anyone can look it up. That stat measures how often the line holds their blocks for 2.5 sec, when most good qbs have the ball out of there. But as we all know Fields holds the ball for-fing-ever and only got slightly better over time at sensing pressure and/or throwing the ball away. Sorry not sorry to bust everyone’s bubble but most of the sacks were on him. Looking forward to more of your videos.
Phenomenal points! Justin was in fact drafted to save their jobs, and definitely struggled going through progressions in the passing game. Great insight and we’re glad you enjoyed the video!
I just hope for the Bears' sake that Caleb isnt just Fields 2.0. No doubt this comment will get some backlash, but if you want to see something interesting, look up the long list of USC QBs that have been drafted into the NFL. They were all busts, some of them terrible terrible busts, and all of them highly regarded in scouting reports. The ONE exception being Carson Palmer, who although had a long and fairly consistent career, didnt achieve the HoF, nor will he. That's the only one (You can say Hayden, I disagree). USC has a long history of being a very QB friendly system, and an equally long history of those QBs not being nearly as good in the NFL as they looked in college. It's not just Darnold, Kessler, Sanchez, Barkley, Leinart or Cassel either. It's a long and storied list. Does that mean Caleb will follow suit? Who knows. Just saying drafting stud QBs from that system has had a very low percentage success rate.
@@Heathcoatman The most tired argument. What in the world does Lincoln Riley's USC team from 2023 have to do with QBs who played at that university 20-30 years ago? I guess the Chiefs should have never drafted Mahomes, because "How many great QBs has Texas Tech produced?"
@@VicInNocal Tech has had exactly 2 QBs taken before the 6th round in history. The other is Billy Joe, remember him? Me either. A little different than USC, wouldnt you say? To me the most tired argument is "he was so good in College he is a lock for the NFL" Two completely different games. When was Brady taken again? I wish Caleb luck.
Everybody has to start somewhere ! Now you can say you were here before we got big haha. Just 3 dudes who love football. Thanks for the nice comment…seriously means a lot
The Bears quarterback carousel wasn't completely the quarterback's fault. For any QB to be successful the team needs a strong offensive line and some good receivers. Plus, an offensive coordinator who maximizes the talent available. Too many Bear teams focused on the defense while ending up with a strong running game and little passing. Hopefully Caleb Willians will change that in 2024.
Totally agree 👍🏻 Name the best WIDE RECEIVER in Bears history 🤔 Almost as sad as their futility at QB Johnny Morris? Harlan Hill? (who?) WALTER PAYTON is the Bears 4th all-time Receiver 😳 with 4,538 yards receiving … AND he has the MOST RECEPTIONS in team history with 492 catches! They should do a similar video “the Scary Truth behind Chicago’s Wide Receiver Problem”
Yo this was well put together yo! As a die hard you told our story well. As a young fan all those woes from 2006 and on I've felt each one. The way you built up the Parkey kick with excellent, it's like it was that playoff game all over again! I called the mis kick cause I had watched him hit the uprights more than five times throughout the whole season 🤦🤦🤦
Awesome video boys! At the end of the video you mentioned the breakdown of the top prospects from this years draft but the only other video i see is the Lions curse video. Cant wait to see what else you guys do. BEAR DOWN!
At some point you gotta stop pointing the finger at the man under center and point the fingers at the people in charge. Coaches change, players change, the owners stayed the same, and there's more to that "owners stayed the same" than I care to even try to explain.
First off well done! This feels like a professionally made video! As a bears fan I’d say the issue is the organization and coaches. Look at Detroit, the moment you say some shake ups at the top you saw changed and things are looking good there rn. We just always seem to be lacking in one of those two at any given time for most of our history. It doesn’t matter how many great QBs you throw at us, or how many good players you give them to work with, if the coaches and organization aren’t good then you’re gonna be see the same BS, just to varying degrees. Again, look at the lions, back during the stafford days they had a darn good QB and had some good weapons to work with offensively and defensively…and yet they just couldn’t make it work. And then suddnely you see them really shake things up and suddenly you see an improvement and see things really turn around. The fact that we can take QBs like cutler who did well before us, and get little out of them, shows it requires some changes beyond players. I will say that I think Jim McMahon was a good quarterback. He wasn’t a Joe Montana or Tom Brady but he was good imo. Looking at the scores of the games that season yes you see the defense kept their opponents from scoring quite a bit but you also see some good numbers for what they scored and that requires a good offense and a good QB. I don’t think he was carried like you seem to say. The 2006 bears definitely carried Rex and that obviously lead them to fail.
Great video! As a lifelong bears fan (since ‘95), all the memories of shitty QB, after shitty QB came flooding back. By pointing out the Bears lack of being proactive at the position despite having a “QB” already, makes me feel even more confident in them drafting Caleb Williams. I’m cautiously optimistic, but we will see how it turns out in a few years.
My husband and his brother are so excited for this year. This guy has an arm. I had to smile -as I usually do - when they show the 2017 draft. Passing over Mahomes was the best thing for my hometown team to happen. But, not so much for my husband's team. For years he has been thinking it is a new start and then it busts. But, this guy, Williams, is gonna be the best thing for the Bears.
@@firstteamfootball being a bears fan I’m obviously biased towards seeing more videos of their top prospects. But any breakdowns where newer talent is shining in pro situations is always nice to see
Amazing to hear about Jim McMahon era. As a kid, he was so popular even tho we never really followed the nfl closely. Just thru media and advertising, they made him seem like the best qb and alongside the goats. But because of this vid, I now know that he was mid and that it was personality that made him popular, more than his talent. Crazh how media/advertising can influence people who aren't paying much attention or looking into the details. Thanks fornthe trip down memory lane
You forgot the moment where the Bears lost out to the Steelers for drafting Terry Bradshaw. Going into the draft that year, the Bears and the Steelers had identical records, literally identical everything. So to determine the tiebreaker for who got the first pick, they decided the draft order with a coin toss. Yes the Bears lost out due to a coin toss. As for Caleb Williams, I would like him to succeed, but I'll believe it when I see it.
The one that hurts out of them all is not drafting Rodgers and taking Benson. I've lived through the Bears passing on Rodgers, Watson and Maholmes. I'm hoping we finally got it right with Caleb. Excellent work on this video!!!
The Bears have always been a run first team and dominant defense. They have always built her team this way until Jay Cutler then started trying to become a passing team.

@@Ghostedfaet did that comment make you feel better lil guy?
The Bears don't have a qb problem they have a development and coaching problem
Yeah they cannot develop quarterbacks to save their life . Jim McMahon was an average quarterback that had an awesome defense .
They had an OC and HC problem for Cutlers entire tenure.
Thats why they got shane waldron. I mean the guy made geno smith a franchise QB
It's ownership that is the problem just like all Chicago teams. All they care about is money and not fans
Passing over Rodgers was like the Browns passing over Roethlisberger as the guy each passed over went on to personally torture that team and the fanbase for many many years.
Tbf Rodgers was a late 1st round prospect and the Bears had the 4th pick. Of course hindsight is always 20:20 though
At least we got Cedric Benson
Yes Rodgers was a huge pain, but imagine Marino with the '80s defenses. Could've been the greatest dynasty ever besides the Patriots.
I think passing over Lamar was worse, for everybody. Baker Mayfield, the Browns, & Lamar himself. The Ravens seem to resent having an élite QB (especially the cost). The Browns meanwhile chased after The Worst QB Option & over-paid him.
All of this could have been avoided had they chosen Lamar.

If you want, I can tear them down. You remember when Mac Jones was discovered to be Seeking Advice outside the Pats? If Bellichick had responded to that With Silence we'd all know Jones was on the way out, right? Well?
Fields called out his coaches publicly after week 7 of '22. What did *their silence* indicate? The Exact Same Thing. But because this indicated that the Bears were betraying We The Fans as well as Fields, everyone seems to have gone into denial over it.
Well, let me remind you of what you "forgot" while in denial. 1) "The Bears _had to call_ for Fields to Not Throw to Certain Receivers on Certain Plays to simplify the offense for him because he Can't Read Defenses." That's the 'reason' Bears fans made up to excuse a play-call that had Zero Chance of succeeding. What's wrong with all this?
First, obviously, if Fields can't read defenses, you're putting his life at risk out there. _Especially_ when you call for your o-line to ruclips.net/video/FiiK21VzI_o/видео.html let all the pass-rushers through to him. He can't read defenses so he may not run for his life.
2nd, how is forcing Fields to stop mid-play or mid-throw, read a player's jersey #, try & remember whether it's one he's allowed to throw to on that play _then_ throw simpler than throwing to whatever receiver he sees? A real head-scratcher these excuses y'all make up.
2) The You The Fans said "Fields holds onto the ball too long." So now you not only forgot that he was ordered *By His Coaches To* hold onto the ball instead of pass it, it's his fault now. Or should he drop the ball instead of run away from the pass-rushers his coaches order his o-linesmen to run away from? Like they _told us that_ they were moving away from him. You think they spent the next 1.5 years calling plays designed to make their decision look stupid?
3) One can't _unlearn_ to read defenses. So ruclips.net/video/QuhUbISnr8s/видео.html *proves* he can now & always did read 'em which means that there is No Excuse for calling plays with zero chance of success. Also in weeks 8-10 of '22 & weeks 11, 14-17 of '23 different play sets were called in which Fields was far more efficient & scored more points. The 3-game streak in '22 he led the Entire NFL in offense proving it was _only_ the play-calling holding him back as he played up with Allen, Mahomes & Burrow when the play0-calling changed.
The last thing is someone spliced Fields' college highlights into a video with Caleb Williams'. It's no surprise to me, but what do you know? Fields ruclips.net/video/5JO1PsupF_U/видео.html is a better rusher _AND_ more accurate passer who scrambles & makes throws on the run & at weird arm angles better in the NFL than Caleb has done so far in college.
This team is _great!_

The 85 Bears defense were like " if we cant have a qb, we'll kill yours"
The back to back shutouts in the playoffs in 85 was an unreal accomplishment
Its funny. Im not a bears fan, but I never saw them as one of the worst franchises. It was always baffling how they continued to screw at QB. Even more so than the lions did for years. They're really a representation of how far defense and a strong run game can take you.
We've wasted many great teams by having sub par QB play, and we also like to run QBs out of town who have potential.
The Lions used to screw up at QB too until they got Matthew Stafford.
This auto played after i watched another video and i thought it was a NFL Films production. This is insanely well done. Instant subscription from me. You are extremely talented. Keep up the amazing work.
Wow! That is extremely high praise and we’re humbled you feel that way. Thank you for the sub. We’ll be putting out more content like this in the future so stay tuned!
I see a lot of people say “how do you not have more subscribers” on other channels. But with this channel, that statement couldn’t be more true…
Like this video was amazingly edited and high quality. If you keep this content up it’s only a matter of time for you to get more noticed. I get to say I was here when you were a smaller channel 🤭
That means a ton to our team! Thank you for being one of the first 💯
Just want to echo what everyone else here is saying. Incredible work, quality is right up there with docus from NFL Films and ESPN. Ready to watch you speed run 1,000,000 subscribers.
Wow! Thank you very much for the kind words. The million sub speed run starts now 😂😂
This was amazing, great work! As a bears fan, I am cautiously optimistic about Williams. Although as you have pointed out in the video, this isn’t the first time I have thought that ‘we found our guy’. I hope he is different!
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed it. Williams definitely has the potential to be a real difference maker
Justin Fields was not the “wrong” QB, the team was never built for him to succeed, the offense was never stable (he literally had a new coach every year)
Yea
But his contract was big so if he played 1 more year he would get paid 40 million dollars
I hope caleb does something
@@SammyPlayZ7I’d pay him that over what the qb market is growing to be. Hopefully Caleb lives up to the hype
Nah he buns for real
Dreadful front office is the problem that's been the curse. Not just bad coaching. Bad recruitment look at the list of QBs they past up on. Jim Finks was the best GM bears have had. He even past up greats QBs like Dan Marino. Ryan Poles would have drafted him & Rodgers. Poles is different. Caleb Williams time.
It goes one level higher than the front office. The TEAM OWNERS don't care. The Halas-McCaskey family have been coasting off their ONE Super Bowl win from 40 years ago. The only thing will save the Bears is to sell the team.
Speaking as a bears fan. The problem with the bears starts at the top and I fear that we won't see any kind of success until the mccaskeys sell the team
Yep. The franchise has no clue how to develop QB. Mahomes Brady any QB you name would have failed here.
@@BeepsAndBeats I liked Fields. I thought all of his issues with holding the ball too long and reading a defense better could've been fixed but we had an incompetent coaching especially OC Luke Getsy at the time. He might be the worst OC the Bears have had in my lifetime.
@@brockstar1461 remember John Shoop? (sp) lol
I'm so damn glad I'm not the only one who thinks this. The McCaskey family is cancerous to this team.
It's the same with every Chicago sports team owner. Fans go to GL the games regardless of how the team performs and it's how owners keep getting away with such lackluster products
Soooo good! Your editing and narration are awesome. While the Bears have struggled, hopefully they are heading in the right direction and their new face of the franchise can turn things around! Thanks for a great video and can’t wait to see what you post next!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video. Hopefully Caleb works out for the bears
Not a Bears fan but loved the excellent documentary style..damn good stuff!
Thank you! Who’s your team?? We’ll be making more of these in the future
I didn’t know McMahon was chill like that…
😭😭😭
McMahon was THEE MAN! Cooler than ice on Pluto
This was done better than any major media outlet could do it
Thank you, Kyle!!
It never fails to irritate me when McMahon is spoken of like he was a winner by circumstance. When I go back and watch the '85 games (all are online, except Game 3 (???...) I see one darn good QB in McMahon. That guy was a heck of a QB, I don't care what anybody says. I've been watching them most of my 60 years, there have been a few truly bad ones.
Agree. Injuries plagued him for most of his career.
Jim was tough as hell and really fit the bears well. He was a good qb.
He really wasn’t that good though…
@@mitchcolburn1216 he really was though your just a closet bears hater
@@POPToppins He was mid on a good day. I’m neutral on the Bears.
I think a big problem with the Bears is the team tends to hire defensive minded head coaches vs coaches with an offensive mindset who could draft and develop its quarterback. The Packers traded for Farve and drafted Rodgers and Love…but since the 90s the Packers have hired offensive minded coaches.
I think you're kind of right, but it's worth pointing out that 2 of their last 4 coaches were offensive-minded coaches, and 3 of the 8 coaches they've had since 1980 were offensive-minded.
They skew defensive, but not drastically.
I certainly won't claim that Trestman and Nagy were offensive geniuses, but they were at least offensive guys.
Remember…even Curly Lambeau and Vince Lombardi were offensive coaches.
It's hard to complete passes when you're dodging the entire front line of the other team. The Bears are famous for not having a decent front line. Even McMahon had that problem and ended up with a lacerated kidney and repeated concussions. He currently is suffering from CTE as a result of repeated brain trauma. The pad that all quarterbacks wear around their waists and middle was first introduced for McMahon to protect his kidney and ribs. Even a mediocre quarterback can have a decent game if he isn't getting pounded into the turf play after play. It used to irritate the heck out of me when critics would call McMahon "brittle." He took some incredibly strong hits.
So Williams is a great talent he has showed that in high school and college as a life long Bears fan since the early 80s I hope he is that guy ..But my guy is Ryan Poles he hands down changed the culture and I trust in Poles ..BEARDOWN BABY

INSANE.......where did this first team football team come from haha? this feels like an ESPN 30//30 documentary.....good work gentlemen. I am now avidly waiting for y'alls next video
Thanks brother. We put a ton of time into this one. Just 3 guys who love football and want to share it with the world in a way nobody has done before.
I’m 4 minutes in and giving this the like. The presentation alone is professional quality.
😂😂😂 thank you! That means a lot to us. What content would you like to see more of?
Great video!
As a Bears fan I will come right out and say it. They have an ownership problem! This is where players and coaches come to die. They can't draft well. The scout's evaluation of the talent is poor. Playing quarterback for the Bears is like a suicide mission. They have lacked an offensive line for 2 decades. Sure, we could have drafted better as the video shows, but those more recent picks would not have florished here. It would have been more of the same, injuries upon injuries. If you can't protect your quarterback, you have nothing....
I wondered about this. While I don't watch the Bears, it's my husband's team, I have said to him it is the front office that is the problem. The talent scouting, the guys in charge of who to pick, that the Bears cannot assess talent.
I grew up in KC. I grew up with the Chiefs. My team. I watched a video about the guy who discovered Mahomens. In 2017, Veech was the guy watching the tapes and the talent. He was suppose to assess a guy on the same team at Texas Tech as Mahomes. He found himself drawn to the QB. He began a campaign for getting this kid. But, it was a year before Mahomes even declared. Still, Veech wanted him and told Andy Reid he was the next Goat. So when he declared the Chiefs were sold on him and move mountains to get him. The only real thing in their way was the Bears. They had the 2nd draft pick and The Chiefs traded big stuff to get to 10th pick. Breath was held until the Bears announced Trubitski.
The Bears long needed a Veech in their scouting and then listen to him.
This is what I wanted from tv! Which they delivered some, but not without irritating me😁 Please keep it up, no matter how long it takes! Subbed 👍👍👍 It's like corporate forgot how to people. Glad there's so many sports guys on YT. Gorgeous video!
Thanks for the sub! We’re glad you liked the video and we will certainly be making more like it for the foreseeable future 🤙
@@firstteamfootball Absolutely; well deserved! Discovering the sports people on YT has been amazing, and this was such a great video. Keep it up; I look forward to it all💪✌️🖖
It amazes me as to how many QBs this organization has gone through. As the old saying goes hindsight is 20/20. You look back at all the missed opportunities at the QB position and you shake your head. Now we enter the Williams Era and I for one am optimistic and look forward to staying with one QB for the next decade. Bear down. Great video.
The production quality of this video is top shelf. Subscribed and liked. Keep it up!
Thank you for the sub!! More videos like this on the way
This was truly outstanding. It illustrates much about being a Bears fan over the past several decades.
both the bears and the lions have had a brutal go at it. go check our lions video
Beautiful. I shedded a tear.
we did too making it
Fantastic dialog, fantastic voice-over, fantastic animations/graphics, and great content for the entire video. Keep the grind alive 1st Team
Thank you Scott! New one coming out soon
Sadly as a Bears fan....I know first hand of the mediocrity (at best) at the QB position. The part that's most troubling though isn't the PERSON playing the position....but the way this franchise coaches and treats this position. I truly believe the Bears have had some great players come in to play in Chicago....and were cut down at the knees by horrendous play calling and overall game strategy. I don't think Aaron Rogers or Patrick MaHomes would have had the careers they've had....if they ended up with the Bears. We'll see if this changes with Caleb....but as someone who's seen this many times before.... they'll have to prove it before I'll believe it.
Great video, as a Bears fan, our seemingly eternal QB struggles been a truly maddening thing to deal with over the years... When we drafted Fields, I thought we might finally have our guy, but that didn't work out either. With our improving defense and the weapons we have at all of the skill positions on offense, hopefully Williams will finally be the one to lead us out of QB purgatory. My main worry is the o-line as they've been far less than spectacular the last few years.
This was a very good video. My husband has been a long suffering Bears fan. I grew up in Kansas City and never lost my affection for the Chiefs and I tend to favor them. Not into the Bears except that I wish my husband could have games to be happy about. He goes and watches with his brother and every week it seems they loose.
This year both are super excited about Williams. I've watched some videos on him and he looks to be the real deal. His throwing reminds me of Jackson. For once it will be a fun year for my husband.
He throws nothing like Lamar but yes go bears
You should show him this video and see what he thinks.
You have had a very fun time being a fan of the chiefs though 😭😭😂
I love my Chicago bears regardless of what people say or think go bears 🧡💙☺️💯
You deserve way more subscribers. Awesome video
Great production value on this, I enjoyed reliving the pain. Correction, the Bears traded 2 first round picks for Cutler.
Great vid! As a bit of a football nerd, I appreciate this type of depth!
I’m a bit torn with the Bears offloading a QB they drafted in Rd 1 to take another prospect. The Bears don’t do much in the field of QB development from what I’ve seen over the years. I believe this is why they are constantly looking for that franchise QB. I also can’t 100% put the blame on the QBs because in the modern era their offensive line hasn’t exactly been spectacular while at the same time running into injuries. It makes for a terrible situation with Bears QBs. Is Caleb really the answer? No, unless they can find a way to develop what many say is a generational talent.
you don’t really develop qbs or any players. you give them playing time. 3 years is more than enough to know that JF has no idea what he is doing out there.
Lifelong Bears fan, lotta hurt in this vid. I remember being optimistic of Rex Grossman LOL I was fully bought in on Fields, he's gone now. hopefully Caleb Williams is that guy cuz if i have to hear Jordan Love saying "I still own you" in 10 to 15 years I'm going to lose my marbles
Excellent Video all said, liked and subscribed
The most beautiful yet painful thing about football is the hope that it brings. Caleb may very well be the answer to decades of waiting. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for the sub!
Grossman should have been a great QB but after that initial injury, he lost most of his mobility and had to resort to becoming a pocket passer. Was never his style of play in college at Florida. Watch some of his old college films and you will see what I’m trying to indicate.
This was amazing put together. Just as good as any ESPN or similar documentary…. Keep it going guys !!!!
Thank you for giving Payton his props
He deserves em! An all time great
At least this time we can’t be BLAMED for picking Caleb if he stinks . Picking him was the conventional wisdom at the time.
Nah drake is better than
Careful with that. Bryce Young was the clear no°1 pick last year, nobody could've blamed the Panthers for drafting him. Now they've dropped him just into his second season in favour of Andy Dalton... Drafting is a lottery. Keep that in mind whenever you're trading up^^
Great history lesson but the Bears have been plagued by the lack of a competent O line and weak play calling...
The Bears didn't have a 4000 yd QB because their main focus has always been defense.
Thank God they decided to take the best prospect instead of passing up on him again. Many wanted to keep Fields. They FINALLY broke the cycle. Caleb is a leader and has the same winning attitude that Derrick Rose had when he was the youngest to ever win the MVP award. LETS FREAKING GO!!!!🐻⬇️
Subbed and shared on facebook. Hope you get more followers. Bears defense looks dominant again. Maybe you can make a video on the history of the Bears defense.
yaa. looking back at history, many fans wanted to foolishly do what the bears have done for 40 years. keep an awful qb and hope he magically gets better.
I do believe McMahon deserved that Pro Bowl in '85. While he didn't put up the biggest counting stats, he had the seventh-best passer rating in the NFL, including the second best in the NFC. Possibly the main reason his counting stats aren't that big is because the Bears kept blowing out opponents in games that were usually over by the end of the third quarter, they ran the ball more to chew clock and potentially limit mistakes. Only one of his touchdown passes was in the fourth quarter, and it was early in that quarter, and they were up 13, which it is definitely possible to come back from.
I was a senior In high school for 85 bears...All the games(except Miami ..Minnesota) were over at half time... that D instilled fear in the other team .the O jess punched em in the face with 34 and suhey the rest of the game.not a lot of passing stats..lots of long time consuming drives...real football.
Sid Luckman enters the chat... "excuse me?" 😀
Seriously 😂
He said 7 decades.
It has, in fact, been 70 years.
😭🙏🏼
well done. it seems even more insane to me just how many people were kicking and screaming saying the bears should keep fields.
Im not gonna say he doesn’t have flaws but the bears organization didn’t really do him any justice in developing him. To dump him after you finally build a team just doesn’t sit right and we still have to see how they perform
@@dylanbaker9394 the unfortunate business side of the NFL. Justin was a superstar playmaker, but consistently showed he could not elevate those around him.
Once you pay him, the ability to surround him with bonafide talent becomes more difficult. He didn't really prove that he would be able to put the team on his back in that situation.
Instead, we now have Rome, Caleb, Cole, and DJ locked down for the next 4-5 years with plenty of space to sign/re-sign blue chippers.
@@hellonocap7315I think we would’ve had something similar minus Keenan. What’s crazy is thinking Justin was gonna demand top of the market money when he’d have no leverage in doing so. The way I see it, poles was better off letting him go after he almost broke the single season rushing especially if he wasn’t planning on building around him. I like what the surrounded Caleb with but it’s still looking like it’s gone be some issues on the oline yet again
Caleb has to be just above average to be the greatest qb in bears history. Thats kind of crazy
Just above average was Trubisky. He has to be better than that.
@@MFBloosh if trubisky was above average he would still be a starter.
Honestly, McMahon was an above average quarterback. People talk about him as if he was a run of the mill, satisfactory QB with nothing special or noteworthy around him, who succeeded because he played on a team that made it easy for him. And while I agree that Jim was never a star caliber quarterback, he was better than people give him credit for. He was a pretty talented player.
Good god. This is like the most heartbreaking story ever. How sick.
The Bears QB problems are, not consistently drafting great receivers, tight ends and having a great offensive line. Not hiring offensive minded GMs, they always hire defensive minded GMs.
Every time the bears select a new QB, drink. What a video man, good job. Cheers
😂😂😂 based on the QB counter alone, you’d be in for one hell of a night!
@@firstteamfootball😂😂
IF YOU DON'T BEEF UP THE OFFENSE LINE THE BEAR'S WON'T HAVE A FRANCHISE QB EVERBODY WANT'S TO BLAME THE QB BUT THE REAL PROBLEM IS THE OWNER'S
Good video overall but you missed a couple things on the Fields analysis. Dalton was signed first and only signed there because he was promised the starting job. They had no idea they’d be able to draft a qb but made a horrible desperation trade when Fields dropped because Pace and Nagy were lame ducks and thought a young qb might buy them more time. Dalton was not brought in to mentor anyone, but it came out recently that when he and Foles did try to be good teammates and give Fields some pointers he had no interest.
“Faulty pass protection” - the line has been ranked top 10 both of the last 2 years in ESPN pass block win rate%. I’m not making that up, anyone can look it up. That stat measures how often the line holds their blocks for 2.5 sec, when most good qbs have the ball out of there. But as we all know Fields holds the ball for-fing-ever and only got slightly better over time at sensing pressure and/or throwing the ball away. Sorry not sorry to bust everyone’s bubble but most of the sacks were on him.
Looking forward to more of your videos.
Phenomenal points! Justin was in fact drafted to save their jobs, and definitely struggled going through progressions in the passing game. Great insight and we’re glad you enjoyed the video!
I just hope for the Bears' sake that Caleb isnt just Fields 2.0. No doubt this comment will get some backlash, but if you want to see something interesting, look up the long list of USC QBs that have been drafted into the NFL. They were all busts, some of them terrible terrible busts, and all of them highly regarded in scouting reports. The ONE exception being Carson Palmer, who although had a long and fairly consistent career, didnt achieve the HoF, nor will he. That's the only one (You can say Hayden, I disagree). USC has a long history of being a very QB friendly system, and an equally long history of those QBs not being nearly as good in the NFL as they looked in college.
It's not just Darnold, Kessler, Sanchez, Barkley, Leinart or Cassel either. It's a long and storied list. Does that mean Caleb will follow suit? Who knows. Just saying drafting stud QBs from that system has had a very low percentage success rate.
@@Heathcoatman The most tired argument. What in the world does Lincoln Riley's USC team from 2023 have to do with QBs who played at that university 20-30 years ago? I guess the Chiefs should have never drafted Mahomes, because "How many great QBs has Texas Tech produced?"
@@VicInNocal Same thing I heard when Darnold was drafted. Exact same.
Time will tell, results may vary.
@@VicInNocal Tech has had exactly 2 QBs taken before the 6th round in history. The other is Billy Joe, remember him? Me either.
A little different than USC, wouldnt you say? To me the most tired argument is "he was so good in College he is a lock for the NFL"
Two completely different games. When was Brady taken again? I wish Caleb luck.

Wow amazing video as bears fan it’s been hell over here man !! Hopefully Caleb can make this different
The editing and production of this video was phenomenal one of the best nfl vids I’ve seen in a while
The Bears quarterback carousel wasn't completely the quarterback's fault. For any QB to be successful the team needs a strong offensive line and some good receivers. Plus, an offensive coordinator who maximizes the talent available. Too many Bear teams focused on the defense while ending up with a strong running game and little passing. Hopefully Caleb Willians will change that in 2024.
Totally agree 👍🏻
Name the best WIDE RECEIVER in Bears history 🤔
Almost as sad as their futility at QB
Johnny Morris?
Harlan Hill? (who?)
WALTER PAYTON is the Bears 4th all-time Receiver 😳 with 4,538 yards receiving
… AND he has the MOST RECEPTIONS in team history with 492 catches!
They should do a similar video

At some point you gotta stop pointing the finger at the man under center and point the fingers at the people in charge. Coaches change, players change, the owners stayed the same, and there's more to that "owners stayed the same" than I care to even try to explain.
My entire block EXPLODED into madness when that double doink occurred. Philly fans thought we were going back to back on bowls almost immediately lol.

This is honestly wild 😳, great video!!
First off well done! This feels like a professionally made video!
As a bears fan I’d say the issue is the organization and coaches. Look at Detroit, the moment you say some shake ups at the top you saw changed and things are looking good there rn. We just always seem to be lacking in one of those two at any given time for most of our history. It doesn’t matter how many great QBs you throw at us, or how many good players you give them to work with, if the coaches and organization aren’t good then you’re gonna be see the same BS, just to varying degrees. Again, look at the lions, back during the stafford days they had a darn good QB and had some good weapons to work with offensively and defensively…and yet they just couldn’t make it work. And then suddnely you see them really shake things up and suddenly you see an improvement and see things really turn around. The fact that we can take QBs like cutler who did well before us, and get little out of them, shows it requires some changes beyond players.
I will say that I think Jim McMahon was a good quarterback. He wasn’t a Joe Montana or Tom Brady but he was good imo. Looking at the scores of the games that season yes you see the defense kept their opponents from scoring quite a bit but you also see some good numbers for what they scored and that requires a good offense and a good QB. I don’t think he was carried like you seem to say. The 2006 bears definitely carried Rex and that obviously lead them to fail.
Great video! As a lifelong bears fan (since ‘95), all the memories of shitty QB, after shitty QB came flooding back. By pointing out the Bears lack of being proactive at the position despite having a “QB” already, makes me feel even more confident in them drafting Caleb Williams. I’m cautiously optimistic, but we will see how it turns out in a few years.
Anyone else here after watching the Bears Hard Knocks?
Yeah...we're gonna be just fine this season and many more to come.
Its OUR time, Bears fans...
My husband and his brother are so excited for this year. This guy has an arm. I had to smile -as I usually do - when they show the 2017 draft. Passing over Mahomes was the best thing for my hometown team to happen. But, not so much for my husband's team. For years he has been thinking it is a new start and then it busts. But, this guy, Williams, is gonna be the best thing for the Bears.
That was put together very well, great video!😊
That means a lot. Thank you. What other topics would you want to see ?
@@firstteamfootball being a bears fan I’m obviously biased towards seeing more videos of their top prospects. But any breakdowns where newer talent is shining in pro situations is always nice to see
I have never sworn as angrily or loudly at a tv as I did after the double doink. It still cuts even now
Well done, can't wait to watch your other videos 🍿
Thank you!
Amazing to hear about Jim McMahon era. As a kid, he was so popular even tho we never really followed the nfl closely. Just thru media and advertising, they made him seem like the best qb and alongside the goats. But because of this vid, I now know that he was mid and that it was personality that made him popular, more than his talent. Crazh how media/advertising can influence people who aren't paying much attention or looking into the details. Thanks fornthe trip down memory lane

Awesome history of the bears and I can't thank you enough for that!😎
Best video on this topic that I've ever seen. Thanks, Go Bears!
Thanks Dan!
You forgot the moment where the Bears lost out to the Steelers for drafting Terry Bradshaw. Going into the draft that year, the Bears and the Steelers had identical records, literally identical everything. So to determine the tiebreaker for who got the first pick, they decided the draft order with a coin toss. Yes the Bears lost out due to a coin toss.
As for Caleb Williams, I would like him to succeed, but I'll believe it when I see it.
Outstanding work! Sad story as a Bears fan, but A+ to you for presentation and facts. Bravo.... Hope we don't fuck this up.
Very good my dude 👏🏻. This just randomly played next while I’m chillin’ on the couch after work. #DaBears
Happy you enjoyed it! Our content is best post-work 😂🤙
The one that hurts out of them all is not drafting Rodgers and taking Benson. I've lived through the Bears passing on Rodgers, Watson and Maholmes. I'm hoping we finally got it right with Caleb. Excellent work on this video!!!
The Bears have always been a run first team and dominant defense. They have always built her team this way until Jay Cutler then started trying to become a passing team.
As a packer fan these kinds of videos are like my ASMR … sleep like a baby 😊
