Yes the Bears would have given him more. But if Im in Cams shoes Im looking at the big picture. He can leave a couple million on the table this year from Chicago. Then go to NE and have as legitimate of a shot at a ring this season as any QB while being in a position that should REALLY help him succeed.
If Cam even makes it through 8 games with this type of play I DO think he will have himself another huge contract.
YES, I do think Cam is better than Mitch or Foles.
I even argued with a lifelong Patriots fan buddy who was sour over Brady, when Cam was signed that the Pats would be fine and ARE still the King of the AFC East. That Cam will thrive off the 3 step drops tossing slants, flat routs, hitches and fades.
I just have a hard time believing Cam would enjoy that same success here in Chicago with a HC whose idea of being creative is lining up leno out wide at mid field and historically having a lack there of for running the ball while also harping for more offensive consistency.
Ive watched 5 different QBs play anywheres from good to flat out great football under Bill Belichick in New England. I just dont know why anyone is surprised by this at this point.

Joke was still on. I doubt anyone that cares about X's and O's actually cares about his fashion.

After seeing Newton‘s behavior over the many years he had with Panthers, no way I wanted him as a Bear. He has shown himself to be one of the poorest sports in professional sports

I would like to think Nagy would play to Cam's strengths as well, but I get that playing for the Patriots comes with a certain prestige to these guys. It's just that Tom Brady is such a hard act to follow, I think most QBs would fold under the pressure...especially with Brady still playing.
Reports were Cam owned that locker room from Day One. Trubisky never would have stood a chance and I think Pace wanted him to have a chance.

Agreed. I dont want a MVP or a guy who took his team to the Superbowl if he doesn't enjoy losing

lol dramatic much?
what makes you think the bears getting cam would have resulted in the same outcomes? no way do i see nagy changing his offense for cam. lets not forget that cam had 1 really good year for TD/INT ratio and that was his contract year, his completion % was over 60% 1 year maybe two not sure...

You realize when you say this it's saying the Bears coaches aren't that good right?

I'm almost certain he wanted to be assured a starting gig, I am guessing.. so Ryan Pace's cunt face probably said no to that and off he went to NE.

Either way you know Trubisky was going to start even if Newton was here. It was all show, Foles never had a chance.

Nobody wondering why the Panthers gave up on him? Panthers having QB issues this year as well and yet they chose to get rid of him.

He was always the choice. Brady was never going to come here.

The Bears were certainly on the outside looking in, but if they truly tried to get Brady, Trubisky would not have been the starter.
