  1. Also one game may be random, but it's not unfair. Both teams have an equal chance.
  2. That's dumb. Sports isn't just about pure entertainment. Why did the NBA expand to a 7 game series for every round? There are fewer upsets now in the first round because of it. I'd say that's more fair to the better teams in the NBA. Yes, entertainment is the primary goal, but fans also care about fairness and rewarding the best teams/players. That's why we complain about horsefeathers umpires and why educated fans want an automated strike zone that will be more accurate and more fair in calling balls/strikes. Fairness is somewhat of an abstract concept (I get it), but it's an important part of sports whether you want to admit it or not. Winning your division is a fair way to get more than a 1 game play in.
  3. But the Bears weren't supposed to draft a QB last year cuz 2018 was so loaded.
  4. This is terrible sciencing. Peyton Manning played 7,000 games in college and was as prepared to play from Day 1 in the NFL than anybody in history. What drives me crazy is people being apoplectic when you say you prefer a guy with limited college playing time to at least sit for a while to start his pro career. I think starting Mitch from week 1 would have been a mistake. I think starting him now is the right decision. I mean he is right in that hanging your hat on a couple andectodes is a terrible way to do it.
  5. define amazing. i don't want to see him have a great debut and then you back out on some vague definition of just how well he played. I'm definitely gonna get a custom Tubirsky jersey.
  6. Yea it's pretty astonishing. I am going to go with the mentally weak theory and this whole QB at no 2 thing irrevocably fucked him up. We'll cut him in the off-season and he'll go onto have an illustrious backup career where he doesn't feel any pressure and actually serves that steady stop gap type play.
  7. I had a pretty long post about it in last week's game thread. I think the bad habit thing is the only one that carried any validity, but for various reasons I am not worried about with Trubisky (but would worry for instance with DeShaun Watson right now).
  8. Jesus Christ. Thank God we at least god the thumbs up.
  9. He's all the worst parts of Jay Cutler, Kyle Orton, Rex Grossman, and Case McNown.
  10. And he threw into double, maybe triple coverage. But hey, baby steps?
  11. I just realized we have both Butt Fumble and Shin (knee?) Fumble on the roster now. I have an old Jay jersey I can custom make into Butt Fumble. Anyone have an old Grossman Jersey they wanna donate to me?
  12. I'm going to say this doesnt happen. I refuse to even get my hopes up that it happens next week.
  13. Guys, I'm not sure Glennon is even a decent backup QB.
  14. We've gotten pretty lazy over the years when you look at some of these. I blame gifs.
  15. Yea there's no way he should have been out there. Honestly, just want him to get healed up.
  16. Holy horsefeathers at the number of meatballs who 100% believe Cooper should be cut from the team.
  17. I'm kinda shocked they saved that much.
  18. Yeah in some ways I feel bad but man that kind of thing just cannot happen. Oh well, we won despite it and I'm sure he learned his lesson. lost in that is the fact that he played a really really really good game. Yea, our coverage in general was good, but Cooper stood out in particular.
  19. How do the Bears ruin my Sunday? 20+ point fantasy swing from the Cohen run being called out to the eventual Howard TD from me to my opponent.
  20. You can't expect to be doing any better than this when you can't throw the ball.
