More Banjo: Week 15 @ Chicago

Any competent NFL QB will look like that when he isn't pressured much at all.

And even so, he looked like a game-manager type QB out there. Not much to get thrilled about, except in comparison to Rex Grossman.

They really messed that one up. They could have drafted Mahomes.

The best part is trading a fortune to move up one spot to keep someone from stealing the pick.

but he out-played Rodgers. for the season he's got a higher comp %, same td's, same yds/comp, half the sacks 44/21. he's in his 2nd year...not his 13th.

They weren't exactly playing against equivalent defenses. I stand by my game-manager description of Trubisky. There's a good reason they don't throw downfield all that often. The same reason also told them to strengthen their defense over, say, trading for Amari Cooper.

Why you hate Tru so much? You antisemite or something?

I like Tru. Dude's a humble fellow. I think, despite having millions of frogskins to his name, dude's still driving a '97 Camry. Imagine that: a Jew that ain't greed-fucked.

I don't hate the guy. I actually think he's a decent, run of the mill QB. Better than Grossman, to be sure. But it sure looks like he's limited. With the Bear's defense being what it is, he may not have to be more than a good game manager.

He seems to have little problems dismantling Capers', err, Pettine's D. Maybe Todd's really at fault, but Tru was able to make plays when the Bears needed a big play against the Pack's wanker D.

Tru will only get better as he gains more experiences. I think he only started a year in college. Perhaps the Bares shoulda drafted Pat "I look like a white QB in full armor" Mahomes, but time will tell, I guess.

Who has a better defense, GB or Chicago? Chicago had 6 more total yards and was 3-10 on third down. I rest my case.

Rodgers is also a decent, run of the mill QB for the last year or so. Not really even a game manager.

pretty much. Like I said, he was 2-10 on deep throws for 40 or so yards and Tru was 1-2 for 23 yards. With the marginal play of Rodgers, Tru didn't have to much more than show up and be a warm body.
