I never understood the love for Trubisky out of college, and if the Bears had even an average QB, they would be super bowl contenders. Instead they’re stuck with a QB who is terrible.
The Bears haven’t had an average QB in decades. Not even in 85 and not now.

What, when the Bears, Packers or Vikings are in town?

Let's do the math on this. Ford Field seats 65k for football. Recorded attendance at Ford Field had a total attendance of 502,361 last year, or 62,795 per game. That's 96.6% capacity. So essentially every week is a sellout, not just when Bears, Packers, and Vikings show up.

I thought a sell out meant 100% over 2000 empty seats on average?

Can't wait for them to look at the game film. What worked, David Montgomery. What didn't, everyone else.

It's really been that way.

I didn't think his time would be this meaningful, but there it is.

David likely won't even see the field this drive, because the bears want to tank this season evidently.

Oop, Davis's shoe came off. Put in Montgomery to be a decoy

McMahon was pretty good actually. If it wasn't for the cheap shots of all cheap shots by Green Bay, he might have had a better career.
He is a legend and I love him, but statistically he was barely average.

Bad news is this challenge allows time for Davis to come back in for the bears. That would make this challenge a double-win for the packers

Trubisky is straight up awful if you keep him in the pocket. Nagy continually outsmarts himself and tries getting cute with formations, motions, shifts, etc. Montgomery has been effective and just hasn’t had enough opportunities
