I get what you’re saying. I can see the critical side of Justin’s ability. I understand he has missed open receivers from time to time. But I also see a lot of the other “successful” QBs do it too. And those other guys have a better supporting cast (Oline, receivers, OC or HC) but Justin (in my mind) has overcome a lot of that adversity. (And to some level so has Flus). Nevertheless, I think Justin is smart enough to not only hear the noise of what you’re talking about but also to concentrate on focusing on what his weaknesses are and improving on them. Like Trubiksy he has the ‘good guy’ aura about him but on top of that he has the success background in HS and college that tells you he knows how to win and will do it given the chance. When you add in the “Houdini” like abilities of evading a sack like we saw a few times today, everyone starts chanting “we want Justin” in the stands. This guy is a keeper (IMHO) mostly because he’s the type of guy that you build around to make better. This post brought to you courtesy of Barrell Vantage Whiskey. ?

Which will be Chicago. ?? But a lot of why he succeeded today was that Getsy called a few designed roll-outs, play action and run plays which are what he (Fields) needs to succeed. That and his Oline gave him a high percentage of clean pockets also contributed to his success. M

“If only”… that game against Denver was another near miss. To consider what this team’s overcome this season: - early concerns about Nate Davis (distraction) - Resignation of Alan Williams (huge distraction) - firing of the other staff member - starting the season 0-4 - injury of Fields early mid-season. And then to do what you highlighted? Pretty incredible for both Flus and Justin. Hard to think all or most of the current team and staff won’t be back.

If I had to guess Kmet will be good to go. Last game against GB and a local kid? Almost no question. Johnsons injury looked like a stinger. I’d say he’s back next week too but maybe more sparingly. With Stevenson and Smith playing well, not as much a concern. Dj Moore going into the tent a little concern. But also a stinger type injury I’d guess. if I had to guess, we’ll be at nearly full strength next week for end of season against GB. All hands on deck.
