    ...I understand the frustration guys, I really do. Up until this week, Bears fans were frustrated with Trubisky, but you need to give young QB's time to acclimate to the league. I understand the desire to be able to hang your hat on some evidence that he is THE GUY, Bears fans had been desperate for the same from Trubisky through the first 3 games of this season, and then he EXPLODED from out of nowhere on Sunday. Just give Darnold time and be patient guys.

    Yea I think we have seen enough out of him to wear he's not even close to being in the conversation about what's wrong. Plus his age. Turned 21 in like August. That's an infant in NFL QB years

    Trouble is the framework around him is garbage. We had Todd Bowles and Kacy Rodgers running this team. Terrifying

    Tom Brady wouldn't even win with this offensive line. He'd be crippled.

    We also need an offensive minded HC who can develop a QB. Bowles is our Fox(except nowhere near the resume).

    Most of the blame is aimed at Bowles and Co, definitely not Darnold. Anybody blaming Darnold needs to get their heads checked, sure the kid missed a couple big throws by a couple inches yesterday but that stuff will come with time.

    Blame Bowles, the OC, the OL all you want...but Darnold has looked like absolute garbage in his own right. Horribly inaccurate passes. Stat line doesn’t show any Picks this week, but there were about 4 that should’ve been. He starts dancing and takes off out of the pocket within 1-2 seconds after dropping back even when there is no pressure anywhere. Dude looks completely lost out there.

    Thanks, but if I may offer you guys a bit of advice - don't be lulled into thinking that one stellar game is a promise of ongoing success; don't repeat the optimistic errors made by many here after week one. Time will tell - it always does.

    ^^^you mean Trubisky isn't going to throw 6 TD's in every single game he plays over the course of the next 3 months?
