Got to laugh, Mitch pulls of great comeback versus the Lions and people are on his back, saying it was because of banged up CB's, Foles does the same versus Atlanta , who lost their best CB, and he's the second coming :ROFLMAO:

Though the whole team, both sides of the ball, sucked in the first half. Second half was better and was nice to see the WR start to hang on to the ball!! Better second half, and huge credit to Foles to come in and drive the team forward - though Atlanta just seemed to crumble as the thought of another turnaround hit them and you got to assume Dan Quinn will be clearing his locker next week.

Foles has the jersey now and I would expect him to start going forward, and if he can keep the momentum of this insane run going, it could be an interesting season. Be great if he can be the guy.

People revelling in a Bears QB being subbed though, Jesus, I think I prefer Packer fans to them!!

Amen brother. Nothing worse than having a vendetta against your own teams players....

The big difference watching Foles and Trubs is the calmness in the pocket and under pressure. Trubisky senses any kind of presence around him and he turns into a mess. He actually moves into the trouble, makes poor choices under duress and the only way he gets out of it is by tucking and running. These guys need to be able to make some room and hit receivers under pressure.

I answered a question. Separately I am quite happy BDN is in now.

I will let this one slide as I am sure you are sad Trubisky was benched and lashing out.

Yeah, please give me the guy whose team can’t hold leads of 20+ and couldn’t win when they scored 39 with no turnovers.

Not exactly Buddy Ryan 2.0

Wait....what? Someone suggested we hire the head coach of the Falcons to be our Defensive Coordinator?

Mitch got us in hole against Det. BDN rescues us from hole caused by Mitch. These 2 things are not the same.

People who know football don’t enjoy watching shit QB play. We’ve seen 4 years of the same shit.

Foles brought calm and confidence to the team.
You could actually see the team believe in themselves again with a leader under center.

Trubisky doesn't possess those qualities and they impact team play negatively as a result.

As much as I hate seeing a player get injured I actually think the Bears are going to be better without Cohen in the backfield.

The best thing is we got Big Dick Nick starting while still getting to 3-0 with Trubs.

100% correct! Best thing that could happen, Mitch showed he has the same problems he had last year, but we still got the W

Mitch didn’t get us in a hole at Detroit he got us out of the hole in that one.

Lol he was part of the reason we were down. SMH. He played 4 quarters and only showed up for 1 of them.

By contrast, Foles did not start when we got down. He came in after we were losing.

You cannot compare a QB playing the whole game and leading a comeback after sucking early to BDN coming in when team is down and leading a comeback.

The defense was “more” the reason we were down....let’s be honest the defense looked like shit at times during all 3 games. The Detroit game there were no turnovers by Mitch I’m not comparing either qbs. I just pointed out Mitch wasn’t the reason we were in a hole. We have a different opinion.

Like ive been saying for over a year, this team never needed great qb play. It needed something resembling competence and not complete ineptitude. Mitch playing like shit for 3 QTRs a game is not a recipe for winning. Not against a decent team at least.

These 3 wins are vs teams combining for zero wins. Lets see how things go when the competition gets stiffer. Hopefully the defense plays to their talent now that they have a QB they can not feel awful about.

Not a bit.

I just never understand looking for the negative in everything especially after a big comeback win

I think we would be remiss if we didn’t thank Dan Quinn and the Falcons for stopping the clock several times unnecessarily. Not that we needed the extra time. They blew a 20 point lead in six minutes fast enough to get the ball back. ?

6 points in the first 3 quarters! How is that the Ds fault? Mitch has the same problems he had last year. He is still very inconsistent, and his throws are way off target.

Mitch and his happy feet and inability to read a defense certainly earned his benching today.

Can't argue with Foles performance today though I'm not sure he can be a sustainable solution at QB either.
