Well, the Bears historically haven't had the best luck with quarterbacks over the years. Now I specifically said it wasn't going to be bad. Here is just a list of targets for every Bears quarterback who has had at least 4,000 yards in a season, yes number zero, they are the only team in the NFL that has never had a QB. Check that box despite being a founding member of the National Football League over a hundred years ago, so as you can imagine, when general manager Ryan Pace was hired in 2015, it was no surprise that the position needed a look. closer, the first movements on the surface were extremely strange, since after the departure of jay cutler, pace signed Mike Glennon to a three-year contract for 45 million dollars, but below the initial votes of confidence in the rhythm The top three quarterbacks in the class were Clemson's Desear Watson, Patrick Texas Tech's Mahomes and North Carolina's Mitchell Trubisky, but Trubisky quickly seemed to pull away from the group and get his head under control, I mean, it was so clear that the Bears didn't even have dinner with Desear Watson, instead the pace fell headlong. .

He fell in love with Trubisky's apparent accuracy, his poise in the pocket, his directness, and pretty soon there was only one quarterback atop Chicago's board looking back. Of course, it's easy to laugh at that assessment, but none of the top three prospects was seen as a home. career pick

was considered the most talented pocket passer but he only started 13 games at unc and was 8 and 5 in them mahomes was a creative gunslinger but he was very concerned about how much of that wouldn't carry over to the nfl and watson had accomplished electric plays on the biggest stages in the country, but I still had concerns regarding his durability and 30 interceptions as a starter, obviously now, as this video comes out, there is also a situation that complicates things even more in hindsight, but of course nothing related to that was known in However, the general point is that this was a class where you had to decide your shot and pace, who was a scout for the Saints when they were taken out.

Drew Brees was confident that he had a similar talent in Mitch Trubisky, so confident that they would, in fact, unload. two third rounds and a fourth round to move up just one spot to number two, ensuring that Trubisky wouldn't suit anywhere other than Chicago, but despite the bottles of champagne being opened for an organization ready to put everything in his weight behind this boy from the north. Carolina, there sure was a strange lack of consensus about where the franchise was headed. Head coach John Fox wasn't told the Bears were going to draft a quarterback until a few hours before the draft.
Mike Glennon, who was promised the pace wheel a month earlier, was simply staring at the

. draft his replacement and the understandably weary Bears fan base, many of whom were hoping for a defensive piece like Jamal Adams, were divided on the movement surrounding Trubisky's arrival, just to say the least, despite the pace's confidence in having secured the savior of the franchise's instability among management. and coaching created a clear divide in Trubisky's approach and his development, while Pace would have liked his young quarterback to learn during a year on the bench, Fox was prompted by Mike Glennon's horrible play to start him in just week five of his game. as a rookie he was a pedestrian but hey at least the wheels didn't completely fall off for sure he had a game where he completed four of seven passes but the bears won that game so 2017 set the stage for the bears They seemed competitive for once, but it wasn't until 2018 that Trubisky's expectations were catapulted into the stratosphere.
It all started with the hiring of Matt Nagy, a disciple of Andy Reed's coaching tree, who seemed poised to bring new life to the stagnant pond that had always been the Bear offense and even fully bought Ryan Pac was ready to put all his chips in. Alan Robinson's hand-picked quarterback would give Mitch an elite weapon on the outside. Trey Burton was a versatile tight end. Taylor Gabriel provided much-needed deep speed. All those pass catchers signed the following offseason, but that It wasn't even the end, each season it became clearer that budding superstar quarterbacks on their rookie contract were the most valuable ace you can have up your sleeve and the pace believed it had it.
One, so he bolstered a loaded defense to establish the team's ambitions of winning a Super Bowl. Now, in early 2018, Trubisky started slow and was by no means perfect, but his swings between high and low seemed to even out as he became more familiar with Nike. system no doubt helped by the nfl's best defense always having its back, not to mention it also occasionally gave bears fans something they hadn't felt in a long time in the form of genuine happiness at watching

torch the buccaneers for five touchdowns in the first half. like he'd arrived as the future of the bears and even though he'd be overshadowed by some ketchup-obsessed guy later in the season, if Nagi's system was this electric with trick plays and aggressive calls up front, then the best had to be be about to arrive.
Well, of course, 2018 didn't end the way Chicago hoped it would and since we're creating an environment of love today, we're just not going to get there, but once the pain subsided, heartbreak gave way to hope again, Coach the rhythm won. and executive of the year and with his return the bears had every reason to believe the team was ready to make a run just in time for its 100th season the defense returned most of the pieces and the offense would unravel new folds with trubisky nagi 202 just as he was nicknamed obsessed with a touchdown to check the progression involved making the big play when he was there nagi was ready to unleash his own mahomes on the nfl the anticipation was magnificent and absolutely none of that translated with the nation watching opening night against The Packers Trubisky looked completely incompetent missed throws missed excellent field position and threw a game-ending interception to former Bear Adrian Amos in the back corner of the end zone cementing a 10-3 loss it was demoralizing but a game doesn't end a hellish season they won the next three despite Trubisky suffering an injury along the way, but coming out of their bye week the cracks didn't close, in fact, they opened against a Saints team that Missing Drew Brees and Alvin Kamara Trubisky made Bears fans want to start. a backup that

to make the plays needing to give the ball away twice in the fourth quarter of a game the Bears would lose 17-16 on a missed field goal as the year progressed and the Bears climbed to 8-8 the scoring machine. Media that had been given championship expectations wanted answers for who was at fault. For one thing, Trubisky wasn't the only problem with the Bear offense, as Nagy received a lot of criticism for not adapting to his team's struggles. and instead remain stubbornly dedicated to their Kansas City-style offense, but while it's easy to criticize a coach for not putting his players in the right positions, what happens when they simply don't execute?
The Bear offensive line rejected his play in 2018, doing few favors in protecting the running game, but more than anything, Nagi's third-year quarterback. didn't rise to the occasion for a quarterback to rise from a player who doesn't lose games to a player who can win them on his own, the minor flaws they enter the league with have to gradually evaporate, but for Trubisky They got worse, sure Nagi could have run his quarterback more or called for more play action, but Mitch had issues that couldn't be remedied by just play calls, he didn't trust a clean pocket and was constantly playing with a play The result is constant problems with inaccuracy in passing the ball over receivers that arise from his release and simply a general inability to process coverages quickly that he himself would admit that the problem is compounded by all these struggles that seem strange on the surface, they belie a lack of confidence and ability to read and execute at the nfl level, yes some of these things could be helped by nagi or should have been fixed by the qb coach dave ragon, but three seasons into a guy's career, if he's as inconsistent and squeamish as he was his rookie season, then something is wrong, nagi and trubisky's relationship soured throughout 2019 for obvious reasons and things quickly turned into a chicken egg debate over who was causing the other to look incompetent at their job above, now forced to face the reality that their perspective can't lose. could just be a bust ryan pace opted to bring in competition in 2020 by trading a fourth-round pick for jaguar quarterback nick foles trubisky emerged from offseason competition with limited limits as a starter, but despite going 2 -0 for three weeks, his continued inconsistency and errant plays would bench him for colts midway through the next game and he would spend the next seven weeks watching from the sideline.
Nick Foles proved equally incapable of carrying the offense and Trubisky would return as a starter following the team's buyout to continue. A three-game stretch of taking down horrible defenses with a revitalized game called by Bill Laser, questions were suddenly being asked about whether Trubisky was saveable, but he would soon come back down to earth with the Bears barely making the playoffs at 8-8. Due to the expansion of the playoff field for Trubisky's last dance, they traveled to New Orleans for the wild card round and the game was broadcast on Nickelodeon even though it was probably an FCC violation to show the Bears two-man football. kids so young, it was actually pretty entertaining, but Mitch Trubisky was no Chicago, he only totaled 140 yards and a single field goal to show for the entire game, until at least this is my theory.
Mitch heard that he was winning in the voting for the first nvp award and decided to give it to the crowd. a 99 yard touchdown to show his appreciation and look at him, I don't think I'm breaking my own rules by trying to be nice here because I think any Bears fan will agree thatthis was the best thing that could happen in the 2020 season. there it is, we have the trophy right here mister

strabiewski is the winner but that was the end the

mitch

ell trubisky era would end not in confetti but in slime the bears did not try to give up trubisky in the coming months and he quietly signed a deal with Buffalo to back a player many believe is on the trajectory he was supposed to be on, Josh Allen, now Chicago fans are forced to settle for another quarterback. substitute field, Andy Dalton, renewing the cycle of purgatory for at least one more season.
As the Bears now have to deal with the salary cap implications of going all-in on Trubisky, but as friends we are here to try to learn from this tragedy what takeaways are truly valuable, there is clearly no way to look at Trubisky's career without seeing the success of his teammates recruited him first and people use that to defend mitch in a way that i can understand that it's not mitch's fault that ryan pace was so in love with him that he traded and made a lot of noise about how he got the perfect quarterback even though the red flags were present from the beginning.
Trubisky was a draft and developed prospect, but with quarterbacks rising as high as many, he didn't have that luxury under outgoing coach John Fox. The staff left in the dark during the process also had no vested interest in developing him. as much as just saving your own skin, so maybe there's a lesson. There's a sort of unified vision of where things are going and I don't think I need to remind you what that might look like. A huge media market like Chicago's will always favor immediate calls for change over practicing patience. But Trubisky never indicated anything other than that he was a hard-working, motivated team leader who said all the right things and approached being a professional the right way.
That's not to say the noise didn't affect him, but it certainly isn't. why he didn't live up to his pedigree, no matter what excuses you want to make regarding his development, the play scheme fits, etc. The cold truth is that Trubisky simply doesn't have the tools to be an elite quarterback and no amount of revisionist history changes that fact by being the prospect touted as an accurate coverage reader; It's neither of those things Four years into his career, every season so far he's seen the same problems go unresolved, from mechanical inaccuracy to decision-making. Confidence in the pocket, poor decisions and poor execution are just part of who Trubisky is.
Sometimes he can be the reason the game is won, but most of the time the game must be won despite him. Mitch has the volatility of Jameis Winston without any of the fun is that his floor is higher but his ceilings are much lower the difference is that the bears have been good enough to carry him when he collapses and in the end that is the hardest thing to swallow ryan pace made the right bet trying to cash in on a rookie deal and load the roster with help but point blank bet it all on the wrong guy bears ranked 1st and 10th in defensive dvoa in 2018 and 19, while their offenses ranked 20th and 25th. 2020 reaffirmed that their defense also ranked eighth despite theirs. fight but you can't win like that in the modern nfl i'm sorry and i know 1985 is all that matters but defense alone can't get you to a championship anymore it doesn't matter if that's

chicago

football or not it's okay Look, Mitchell Trubisky is a bust, no one denies it and he sucks, but he was 29 and 21 as a starter with two playoff appearances, so it could have been a lot worse and for that reason Trubisky's story isn't over yet, But neither is yours in Chicago because at the end of the day you have to remember one thing: there are no mistakes, just happy little accidents.
