Wouldn’t say that but to think Meredith is better than any of the current receivers is premature. I’ll agree the play calling is a huge piece to it. Wheaton, Wright and Miller all have potential to be decent if given the opportunity.
-
Compared to what? His ONE complete season?
-
Loggains needs to be fired right now
-
Zach Miller and Kendall Wright.

I LOVE ME SOME ALABAMA D!!!! We should ALWAYS draft at least one Alabama defender every year.
-
Weren’t there some doubters here about whether Chicago’s D was top 5? Lol!!!!

Whitehair’s shotgun snaps definitely leave something to be desired. Happened a few times to Glennon and at least twice more in yesterday’s game. One went way over Trubiskys head and rolled into the end zone. Trub was able to grab it and throw it away but was awfully close to being downed in the EZ. If he’s better at Tackle, it’s time to move him. Sowell filled in briefly for Whitehair before and didn’t seem to do all that bad. And I though part of the lure for Compton was his ability to cover all three interior spots? Maybe try him?
-
Amen! The playcalling was atrocious. Looked like they decided to revert to the offense they had set up with Glennon. Understand that they lack high quality WRs but have him at least run the offense he’s more effective in. That being zone with roll outs. Standing in the pocket against a defense like Baltimore is going to get him killed. Positive takaways are the Bears are 2-0 against the AFC and with the Packers losing today, only two games out from the division lead. Lol!!!
-
Is that Glennon out there wearing Trubiskys uniform? What happened to the roll outs from last week?
-
Rodgers injured, broken collarbone on throwing shoulder
Alaskan Grizzly replied to adam's topic in Bearstalk
Yeah the hit was questionable for sure. Rodgers was not happy afterwards. Isn’t that the same injury he got when McClellin took him out a few years ago? -
Bears need to find a good big body FA WR or make a trade...NOW!!
-
Agreed. He needs to be able to do some sort of audible and call out of those stacked defensive fronts.
-
Where the hell did this Kyle Fuller kid come from? Damn...he’s looking good today. And Amos is playing like a SS should.
-
We missed on Ahmad Brooks earlier this year ( he ended up with GB). My vote is unequivocally and unquestionably YES!!!!

In the context of ‘better at longer passes’ I mean to suggest that Watson was like Trubisky starting out with doing more short and choreographed passes. With time he’s getting more comfortable with the longer range and longer read passes. I don’t know of anyone that wanted to put Prescott or Watson up for HOF consideration this early; maybe except for those living in Texas. I would certainly categorize them both as serviceable and perhaps starter quality QBs. Which for Chicago (based on our dismal history at the position) would almost be HOF worthy. I’m still of the opinion that although the Dallas Oline is considered top notch then why is Elliott only getting 3.7 yards a carry this year as opposed to 5.1 last year? And although he did end up with the most overall yardage last year, our very own Jordan Howard came in a close second? This despite starting four games into the season and having an inferior line?
-
Funny, was just reading a reponse on another string about how Wheaton won out over a player like Thompson probably because of money. Then this happens...what a joke. Someone else pointed out that although his draft picks are still being judged, Pace’s ability to adequately judge FAs leaves something to be desired.
-
Agreed. I’ve made it known I think (or thought) that Thompson could’ve been a better contributer overall than some of the others at his postition. He did have some impressive pre-season stats with Trubisky which you’d think would weigh into his being given the chance. That and he’s a decent return man on ST.
-
Another thing that will help; and this will take more time for Trubisky to play/develop but, once he gets more time to look off Safety and corner coverage the deep game will come along too. Right now most of his passes are quick reads mostly by design but also partly by necessity. It’s appatenr that even while rolling out he’s able to watch the receivers develop their routes and determine which to go to. Think Watson a few weeks ago where now he’s getting more used to what he’s seeing and becoming that more effective especially in the longer passes.
-
After an initial hard criticism of Trubisky and where he was drafted, I’m beginning to warm to Mitchell as a legitimate QB (this coming from someone who still likes Watson). I’m not still convinced our team needed to do what they did to get him but what is done is done. Watching the Biscuit in his first start I saw flashes of Manning, Rodgers and Cutler. From listening to Gruden describe him, he said Mitchell has the meticulous preparation not seen all that often. Which to me means he prepares similar to Payton. His calmness while playing seemed very Payton-like with his ability to look over the field without panic written all over his face. He has the elusiveness similar to Rodgers and the accuracy to boot. To Cutler he has the pure arm strength. All of this boils down to Trubisky being a force to be reckoned with. But to put a point to my appreciation of Trubiskys play I would highlight that touchdown pass to Miller. Watch as he rolled out and seeing Miller was covered as he went right Trub simply took his thumb and beckoned Zach to reverse course (although the defender saw it too and was able to deflect the pass). I’ll be honest that was probably the coolest thing I saw him do during the whole game. That single moment told me he has ‘it’.
-
Well I’ll be. Who came up with that trick play?
-
Hey ‘Bears 4 ever’, whattya think about O’Donnells QB ability? Lol???
-
Allright Jason, they need to draft an OT first round next year. Preferably not a Carimi or Williams style though.
-
Who the hell is this stud Kyle Fuller? And did I say I love me some Christian Jones?
-
I was actually talking about the D but yes the O too.
-
Wow if only no penalties? Where would our team be right now?
