Why Do The Bears Still Suck?

Poll To Follow

Nagy Sucks.

[pbmax]

That last option is going to get some votes I'd guess.

Its the QB. There is nothing preventing the passing game from working better except short throw after short throw. Defense is fine, RB are fine, special teams are fine. His processing time is slow.

Nagy, somehow, did not give Chicago a collective yip regarding 40 yard FGs and they got that decision right after (to me) inexplicably letting Gould go. The defense is playing well even with a coordinator change though they have yet to adapt to life with Hicks.

Nagy's worst gaffe is forgetting his running game. But I suspect he is working overtime trying to get Trubinsky to function. Its the QB affecting the coach.

Prosecution for Trubisky, Exhibit A

He either foolishly wants to go deep or he thought there was a flat route to that side.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Trubisky ain't all that bad. Of course, he ain't Aaron Rodgers - nobody is. And his career isn't off to near the start of Mahomes or Watson. However, it take a few years in a lot of cases for a QB to develop. I'd be very surprised if he didn't develop to be at least as good as Stafford and way better than Cousins in the few years. They're damn dumb if they give up on him.

I haven't seen any evidence that Nagy is stupid, although I wouldn't rule it out. I went with the Bears still suck just because they are the Bears, and that's what the Bears do - for the last 20 or so years anyway.

I'd watch that clip in the link above your post tex. He's not processing plays well.

To be fair, he has missed a couple of weeks, so there is some rust. But woof that was bad.

Your post came in while I was typing. What do you mean?

That link is one bad play and the words of some media puke.

I was cheering your stab at the Bears org.

But the link shows more than one problem, he doesn't process plays very well. He's not quick to move to another receiver. And in that play, he doesn't seem to know who it is.

[texaspackerbacker]

hahahahaha I forgot that it shows who voted for what. Surely I can't be the only one who thinks it's just the whole long tradition of badness.

In fairness, they have had some bad luck with injuries too. This year, overall stupidity hasn't quite taken hold yet. The suckage should increase as those draft picks that they don't have bite them in the ass. Ol' Papa Bear Halas used to gain picks instead of giving them away - like getting Butkis and Sayers back to back early in the first round.

The number one job in today’s NFL for a GM is to get the QB position right. The most amusing thing in the NFL is watching the Bears draft QBs. Sure the Bears could have a bit better O line or run the ball better or have some depth on the D line. Maybe they’d have all that if they hadnt traded picks for Mack. But it doesn’t matter. The Bears players know their QB cannot throw downfield, cannot lead them, so they lose hope. And then they lose.

Nagy abandons the run but Trubisky is trash. Can't read defenses, he's in year 3 and they still treat him with kid gloves.

A succinct and accurate analysis.

I guess the GM who drafted Trubisky over Mahomes and DeShaun Watson should have been an option in the poll.

Trubisky: 588-924, 6255 yards, 36 TD, 21 INT 690 yards rushing

Mahomes: 562-856, 7561 yards, 65 TD, 14 INT 364 yards rushing

Watson: 634-944, 7816 yards, 58 TD, 22 INT 1016 yards rushing
