I can see that. I do think Trubs will become more accurate with a better feel for the passing game but it remains to be seen.

His issues are mechanical, which should come with working with actual coaches and experience.

I think there is some value in comparisons as it allows you to avoid some issues that similar guys have had. The Titans seem to be pushing Mariota away from what he does well. They do not run the RPOs or the quick passing game out of the shotgun that you would expect.
The Bears seem to be avoiding that and not fighting against Mitch's strengths.

If his best comparison turns out to be Tannehill, Pace needs to be tarred & feathered

Yeah, Tannehill would be a disappointment. Injuries and coaching issues have contributed to his mediocrity, but it would still be a disappointment.
I think Trubisky has a little more flash than Tannehill. We saw it last season when plays broke down and he scrambles for 15 on 4th and 13 or hits Wright with a bullet after avoiding 2-3 rushers. I think a QB either panics when that happens or they do not. Tannehill is a panicer.

Trubisky has more focus and commitment than Tanny, Cutty and many others listed. He also seems very confident in his abilities and preparation...Trubs is many things. Meltdowns I do not worry too much.

We should spend more time on pointless comparisons.
Tom Brady = 8 letters
Trubisky = 8 letters
Therefore, we have 5 Super Bowls coming our way.

FACT: Trubisky is right handed.
FACT: Terry Bradshaw is right handed
CONCLUSION: We are winning the Super Bowl

No I don't either. I think having the right kind of head for the game is one of his strengths.

If MT is only a bit better than Tannehill I will be very disappointed and very surprised. I expect him to be much better. MT’s situation is also better. A new coach and offense that will be built around MT’s strengths is a huge advantage. He also has an established running game, new legit talent receivers, and a ~top 10 defense. I am not saying multiple Pro Bowls but Tannehill numbers? Really?

He reminds me of the young San Diego Chargers Drew Brees

byron leftwich 40 yard dash : 5.10 sec
Mitch Trubisky 40 yard dash : 4.67 sec
Mitch is defiantly more athletic, but Byron just looks so similar to him in the pocket

What a stupid comparison. Byron Leftwich was a statue in the pocket, his comp coming out was Drew Bledsoe. It would be like trying to compare Jameis Winston to Michael Vick.
