Chicago Bears

Everything he says is wishy-washy half in half out bullshit. There is no way this does not carry over into the locker room.

Schrödinger's quarterback over here.

“Anyway, as long as our guys go out and control the puck for 9 innings, I think we’ve got this one in the bag.”

Not showing his hand to the opposing defense, what a genius!

It is what it is with the injury. The real issue is this guy is a complete moron who can’t handle a basic press conference. How is he not more prepared for obvious questions he was going to get? If he can’t handle softball questions from the media how can he handle the communication you need to handle a locker room?

I think he’ll be injured until he gets healthy

Depending on how well Bagent performs tonight will determine how long Fields needs "to heal". If he plays lights out against a defense with little pass rush (especially with Burns out) and decent secondary, there will be a push to keep playing him. If he does his game manager thing that he did against the Raiders or they lose, it'll be back to Fields, assuming they haven't already given up on him

And who really cares ... just different styles of crappiness that will be painful to watch.

Who gives a shit honestly? It's like no one has seen the Doubtful injury designation before.

He isn't medically cleared to play yet. I'm sure if he was, he'd be considered questionable. Due to the fact he isn't medically cleared by end of practice Wednesday, he's doubtful. Maybe he gets cleared this morning and maybe he doesnt... Hence the doubtful. If he were to get cleared this morning he could potentially play, which is why isn't considered out.

C'mon people.

I interpreted it as it'll be game-time decision...am I wrong?

Vibes based coach

Has anyone checked if Elbowmoose had a stroke?

Can’t spell doubtful without Ou(b)t

The only confusing part is people calling Fields a QB…

Make the opposition game plan for both QBs. It’s injury designation 101. People are so mad that Flus won’t say if Fields’ starting when the only people that benefit are the ones they’re playing tonight.

I honestly think it was just a slip of the tongue. It felt like he was trying to play along with the NFL's rules about the definition of Questionable vs Doubtful vs Out to leave the possibility open and force the Panthers to game plan for it. Because technically there's another day where he could theoretically get medically cleared, and then he'd play. But then let it slip that "Yeah, he's not playing." And then immediately went back to the vague "Doubtful" line.

Eberflus is a bumbling idiot. That’s the representative for our team folks. I want apples gone too, because he actually thinks this is the guy to lead our team. They’re both idiots.

The head coach interview should be a press conference.

If we hire you, are you going to make us all sound like a bunch of assholes?

He's 51% in and out.

From my understanding, if they designate him as out prior to the game, he can't be dressed or participate in the pregame warm-ups.

My guess is that he is inactive but designated as Doubtful so he can participate in pregame warm-ups.

Could this just be an attempt at covering the game plan? Only way I can see and really back what Flus just did at the conference

I want Flus taken to where horses turn into glue. Wait, that's a little harsh. Maybe a non Medicaid nursing home.

Flus might be the worst public communicator we’ve ever had as a head coach. I wonder if that at all translates to his ability to communicate to the players and staff

Honestly idk if I'll really pay attention to this game if he's out. I can only watch so many 3 yard screens and check downs before I fall asleep

Does Everflus even know what team he coaches?
