How quick of a hook for Mitch vs Saints?

[Midway Fields]

My hook would be quicker than Ricky Renteria in game 3 vs the A’s for those Sox fans out there. Except this time it would be the right move.

I have ZERO faith Mitch can put up enough offensive points to beat the Saints.

Yes, I’m tapping my right arm and calling for the closer, Midway Nick. Don’t get me wrong, my confidence isn’t much higher with Foles, but it’s not fucking zilch and at least he’s done it before.

Fucking Mitch has been presented with countless opportunities to play well against good teams and hasn’t delivered a single time in his career. Zero games in his career with a QB rating over 100 against teams with a record over .500. Please sit back and ponder that for a few minutes. Because it is unfuckingbelievable.

IMO, the Bears QB will need to have over 100 passer rating to have a chance to win this game. There’s no way around it.

The Bears only W against a winning team this year was against the Bucs with Foles. Bears took the Saints to OT (granted no Michael Thomas) w/ Foles. The o-line is playing much better which is clearly a requirement for Foles to play well.

In a do or die situation, how fast is your hook on Mitch this Sunday?

First non-spiral? (JK he’d be gone after first pass attempt)
Few errant passes to open receivers?
One or multiple picks?
Down 2 scores?
Maybe you’d never bench him and blindly hope til the clock strikes zero that he will play well against a good team for the first time in career?

Hook Mitch for Foles?....NOPE!

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

Pace is gonna just let it ride... his job is on the line in that game. Ride or die with the guy he drafted.

 

[bamainatlanta]

For Foles to come in? Absolutely none. Foles will get destroyed by the Saints pass rush. If there is any chance, lets be honest there isn't one, is Trubisky uses his legs.

 

[Gustavus Adolphus]

WTF?!?!?! You play his ass the entire game.

He's a FA, put him on display for everyone. Maybe it drives down his price, and you bring him back. On the flip side maybe it ups his price and you say "arrivederci," because I don't think anyone in Halas Hall sees him as the long term solution, and then his inability to read a defense is somebody else's expensive problem.

No hook. Foles is worse, makes the running game worse, and is immobile.

 

[Anytime23]

I want Mitch in for the loss as the clock strikes 0

 

[Leomaz]

Seeing that it’s a loss no matter who plays I’m not sure if you take out anyone you play. But I guess you actually have to play to win and there is that on any given Sunday idea. If you don’t score touchdowns on your first 3 possessions, get Foles in there. Almost certainly will give the team a spark and make the game more interesting.

PS. I think the Bears win 46-10

Bwahahahahaha....good one. Love it

Advocating for Foles, which I don't believe MN is actually doing here, is a terrible idea. Foles needs to be where he belongs in Chicago--permanently on the bench.

Puff puff pass brother.

 

[Chris Sojka]

No chance he looks good in this game.

Nagy gonna sabotage the offense.
Pagano is gonna run 4 pass rushers and get Hicks doubled. No push from Nichols.

this is the single largest misuse of talent I’ve ever seen.


Mel Tucker would do significantly better a DC with this team.

Now wait a second....Foles didn’t play exceptionally terrible in the last meeting. And he is a good relief QB.

 

[HearshotKDS]

No hook, unless its something like 3-7 in the 4th. You let Mitch save the ship or sink it because that's ultimately going to be "exhibit 1" in justifying whatever decision you come to at QB in the offseason.

 

[Midway Fields]

Pace is gonna just let it ride... his job is on the line in that game. Ride or die with the guy he drafted.

You really think Pace mandates to Nagy that Trubisky plays the the game entirely regardless of what happens?

And if he did Nagy would listen?

 

[PrimeTime]

This is an 8-8 team that backed into the playoffs. If the defense was playing at a high level I might be a little more intrigued. The Saints are going to drop 30 or more points on this defense. Neither Nick or Mitch are capable of putting up that many points against their defense. I wouldn't put much more thought into this game than that. I would advice you to kick back with your favorite beverage and snacks and enjoy watching the Bears in a playoff game. Anymore expectations then that is just setting yourself up for disappointment.

I dont think Nagy is dumb enough to put in Foles at this point.

 

[hyatt151]

Just stick with biscuits, if he flames out, the MitchLovers on here will blame everything on the coaches anyway

Sorry but he wasn't that great. His late misfires ultimately sunk that game--I'd rather see Trubisky crash and burn then to see Foles get blown up on their turf--where that defense usually plays much better.
