Trubisky expected to named the starter

[NCChiFan]

We're about to see just how good of a teammate Glennon is.

I'd be awful damn good for the $$,$$$,$$$.$$ they're tossing at him, give me that clilpboard.

I really wish this fucking game wasn't at the same time as a Cubs playoff game that I'll probably be attending.

Ideally, I'd DVR it and watch afterward, but I'm not sure I can go the entire game without hearing about what's happening somehow.

 

[Bigfoot]

its really happening

watch it be that everyone is hearing "there will be a change at QB" and assuming its Trubisky. Then come monday ... Sanchez is the starting QB. lol

Better than watching Glennon again, and then probably only a game or two from Trubisky even then.

thats not going to happen

 

[Jack Lame]

Damn this is exciting stuff. Starting Monday night against an elite D like the Vikings is wild. Hopefully he plays well, if he doesn't then he shouldn't take it too hard, this is about the toughest debut possible for a rookie QB.

I hope he doesn't go out there trying to do too much, and he'll be fine.

I don't think the Minny D is elite. They have no threat rushing the passer outside of Griffen, esp with Floyd out. They are pretty good, just not great, IMO

 

[remydat]

Agree to disagree then. It was painfully obvious after Tampa that Glennon lacked any redeeming qualities as a QB. It shouldn't have gotten to the point where the locker room was the verge of turning on the coaching staff. That's why the best player plays

I don't think Hicks had fuck all to do with the decision. Trubs is getting the start when most people predicted he would ie with 10 days to prepare.

Fox and Pace don't give a shit about what Hicks said or what fans think.

 

[didshereallysaythat]

I think they should just release Glennon now. Sanchez would make a better backup.

Thanks to the loser protest I was going to take advantage and dump sunday ticket cause its not worth wasting sundays on 18 mil bums like Glennon. With trubisky starting guess Im back on board watching

 

[jts1207]

Fox will just have him hand it off 200 times

 

[Toast88]

I don’t see it happening.

I see no evidence that the Bears are ready to make a change at QB, especially after the Fox news conference just a few minutes ago. Fox, while not naming a starter, seemed to indicate the QB position wasn’t any more of a concern than any other position. He was defiant as ever. Now, maybe he’s just a master actor, but I don’t give Fox that much credit. The way he talked when they kept peppering him with Glennon/Trubisky questions, it didn’t seem like he’s ready for a QB change.

Fox wouldn't commit to Glennon as the starter, which he has done every other week he's been asked.

Also, this:

Thank the Lord

Well, I really hope he’s right. And if he’s not and Glennon starts, I hope there’s a mass mutiny in the locker room.

The fact that Hicks said anything to the media about "big changes" is not a small thing. General ambivalence towards Glennon by other Bears players has been a recurring theme. Any defense would be frustrated with the way Glennons play constantly puts them on the field. Especially when they all know someone who is better is riding the bench. I'm sorry but you're dead wrong if you think locker room attitudes don't matter to a head coach. Their whole job is to get players to buy in, prepare for games, and execute

 

[JoJoBoxer]

No way Fox spills the beans this early... He'll want Vikings gameplanning for Glennon if he does make the switch.

Here is the Viking gameplan: whatever you do, do NOT injury Glennon.

I like how Packers fans cheered when Glennon kept coming out.
