I don't know. I feel the injury maybe knocked him out of his rhythm, because he was pretty good last year.
But as Pegger and remy noted, he's not worth the pay. I think the Bears have reached a lot on offense in the past couple years (Shaheen, Trubisky, Burton, Miller, possibly Montgomery), and it gave some of us a false sense of confidence in the O. I still have hope that a couple of the guys I listed could put something together (Trubisky, Burton, Miller), but I think it's clear that they won't be what we had hoped.
Trubisky has the talent and the drive, but he struggles with accuracy and processing the game. I still think he could play at an average to above average level, but he won't be a star.
Burton has shown that he can play at an above average level but mental and physical issues can really derail anybody.
Miller definitely has talent but the guy's a bit of a head case. He just doesn't do a good job of controlling his emotions, if you pay attention you'll see that he's yelling shit to the guy covering him after every catch he makes.
