Chicago White Sox

Those teams also probably had much better minor league systems prior to their rebuilds. It works both ways.

So 26 NFL games across two seasons in two systems including one year with not a single quality WR after a total of 13 college starts tells you everything you need to know about he guy? Like my god this is some stupid fucking logic and I love the fact you actually think a lack of college experience doesn’t matter.

Lol...my stance is pretty clear. I like the tools but acknowledge he has limited experience and will need time. So far I’ve been disappointed, but unlike you I’m not looking for the medal from being the first one time write him off. After this season I’ll have a stronger opinion.

I have never argued Trubisky is actually good, I’m just ripping you for drawing sweeping conclusions based on a game where most of the offense was clearly rusty from a lack of preseason reps. But if there is a negative angle to take, there is no doubt you will leach onto it with full force so ultimately none of this is very surprising.

He did look like ass and it was a massive disappointment, I just see no reason to panic yet. I still believe Nagy is an elite offensive coach 95% of the time (he still has his bad moments) and that we have enough weapons to be dangerous even if we don’t see a major leap from Mitch this year. The defense is simply too good to think this team will crash & burn.

Awesome post. We literally had a poster call a 2018 Pro Bowl QB “Henry Burris” last night, which reflects the irrational negativity & ridiculous exaggerations this board has come to love. The hot takes were out in full force last night and unfortunately with Bears fans even the smartest ones can’t contain their inner meatball at times (especially when the Packers are involved). Regardless, I’m highly confident Nagy will take the next 10 days to get this unit prepared and that the offense will look an entirely different animal vs Denver.

Alright, the ban bet will only be for the NFL thread. So depending on the outcome of next week’s game vs the Broncos, one of us will not be able to post in this thread from 9/16 until 10/14. It has been agreed upon.

Alright, let’s do a ban bet then. If the Broncos win next week, I won’t post until after the Bears’ bye week, if they lose to us the opposite applies. Are you down?

Mods - Please pin this post so Jack can officially earn the moniker Hot Take Parkman at the end of the season.

Yeah, no doubt Mitch sucked and that last interception is indefensible, but the blame for tonight’s goes much deeper.

You must not be from Chicago. The phone lines will be ringing tomorrow.

Fitting way to end this.

Wow, just awful, we need a miracle here.

Really need a big stop here.

Need a strip here

Good god Mitch sucks...absolutely terrible play there

Another drop fuck

Two scoring drives in regulation doesn’t really seem that much better, but I agree on the overtime angle assuming we would lose the coin flip.

Yup, not good for us

Versus chasing two field goals?

lol...that doesn’t mean he didn’t do a nice job avoiding rushers on the play I complimented him for. What is your end game here?

Because they’re not mutually exclusive and I like him avoiding the sack even if the throw was reckless.

Fuck this shit

But I was complimenting his pocket presence, not the throw ?‍♂️

Lol...Tarik Cohen literally just dropped a ball that hit him in the numbers and his team just committed multiple penalties. Mitch has no doubt sucked tonight, but so has much of the offense.
