    Packers off to a great start as expected. Bears look like they're going to hang in there though.

    How long do the Bears stay with the process and keep Trubisky on the bench? One would think they want to see Trubisky at some point this year especially if they have a top 3 pick.

    And another Bears turnover. There goes any hope of Jordan Howard having a good game on the ground fantasy wise. Catch 22 because I'm also playing against him.

    Let's not forget that the Jaguars wanted to redshirt Bortles as well until they said F it early on and tossed him in there. The NFL is too impatient to not play the supposed franchise quarterback in their first year.

    Let's say he plays 6-7 games and is absolutely horrible. Do the Bears think about taking another one? Especially when you consider how risky and how much of a reach Trubisky was perceived to be and how 'can't miss' the Cali boys appear to be.

    After trading up to get him? I'd skin the GM alive for even suggesting it. I think he gets at least 3 years to sink or swim.

    The whole Color Barf thing really needs to die already. White over white vs. black over black? Wow, my mind is so blown.

    I mean I agree. But that'd also be an acknowledgement of a potential mistake and an effort to correct it. Can't blame them too much if they went that route.

    That'd be a killer media frenzy in camp though.

    Lol as I typed that Glennon bounced a ball out to the flats.

    These are more docile than usual. And they need to do color schemes like that because all the color blind beeetches were whining when this concept came out.

    I generally hate all these uniforms though. I like the Rams uniforms last week.

    I thought it hit a Packer when it first bounced...and in any event, the rotation of the ball didn't change so i don't think that Bear touched it anyway.

    Aaron Rodgers has 305 touchdowns and only 75 interceptions. Yet only one ring. Kinda crazy if you think about it.

    It was only a small contingent of guys wanting Glennon. Majority had already seen his terrible ways in Tampa and wanted nothing to do with him.

    Dudes pretty bad. Elongated delivery & throwing mechanics, no mobility, shitty touch in the intermediate range of the field. He and Osweiler are one in the same.

    Looks like Stretch Armstrong out there with those gangly limbs.

    I wasn't in that grouping. But he looked a lot better in Tampa Bay than he does here. Only completed 58.8% of his passes but also had 29 touchdowns to only 15 interceptions. That came with a 5-13 record but he threw a nice deep ball there.

    Amazingly he's completed 67% of his passes here thus far through three games. Not throwing for a lot of yards though. Must be checking down a ton. Which I never ever understood for quarterbacks on a bad team. Air the ball out. He's got the arm and nothing at all to lose.

    Easily. I think he gets plenty of credit though. He's probably the best pure passer ever even as it stands right now. If he gets two more rings does he pass Brady? Considering the gaudy stats.

    I don't think his career will be viewed as highly as it should be if he only finishes with that one ring.

    @FJF

    He calls it like he's watching with his friends yet the knowledge of an NFL quarterback. Not to mention he displays no arrogance at all. If he stays around as a broadcaster long enough he's a HOF broadcaster in my eyes.
