He had a tremendous rookie season(126 rate+). Regressed his second season(96 Rate+). He had a nice bounce back year last year(109 rate+). He obviously progressed from his second year...Unless you're somehow including an uptick in his play last year as a continued backslide from his rookie year..which makes zero sense.
Give up with them. lol Mitch this year or in two years will be putting up 4500 yds, 30+ tds 10-12 int's at most and these goofs will still be saying he is just ok. At worst he ends up a Matt Ryan who can run better. Elite? Probably not, very few ever end up elite, but next tier after elite will happen.
and there’s plenty of others who don’t flame out. It’s also much harder to apply the argument of sophomore slump in this scenario because by all accounts last season was a very dumbed down version of the offense. The offense as a whole will improve just based on familiarity and being able to expand on what they’re doing.
Ya think?
So why should we assume progression? What if he can't handle the "smarted up" version? What if he's great on the white board but can't process it on the field?(Common in the NFL)
PFF is fucking garbage.Didn't read this whole thread so my apologies if it's already been mentioned, but there's a hardly flattering PFF report out on Trubisky.

Sure. I would have been happy with it too. I was "happy" with what I saw last year too. It was progress. Now he needs to take the next step.
Not they didnt, Mitch was Reid's top choice
Maybe, maybe not. I haven't gone through the exercise of analyzing every offensive play, but I do know what my eyes tell me. He needs to improve; I believe he knows that and the coaches know that. I also believe that he will improve. The remaining question is how much?
sure you can’t guarantee 150% Mitch will improve along with the offense but just watching the second half of last season will tell you the chances are pretty damn good the offense along with Mitch will improve. I would say the probability of improvement is much higher than not.
Which has been my only point.
So then what the fuck is the point of this discussion? You can’t 150% guarantee you and I will be alive tomorrow but we both plan on it.
That just assuming progression is dumb. Shitting on QB's like Dak Prescott(who have proven to be better than Mitch) is dumb. That getting overly excited about a 3200+ 24 TD and 12 INT season is silly. Just pump the brakes. Enjoy the ride. Stop getting out over your skis.
Eh. We'll see how his career ends up. Had a LONG discussion on this years ago but AJ Hawk is a "bust" if you think the #5 pick should be a HOF level or no duh GREAT player and anything less is unacceptable. ..but he's not a bust IMO because he turned in a long, highly productive, and valuable career. He ended up as a good or very good at times NFL player. If Floyd becomes that..he's both a miss but not a bust IMO.
Dak is and so is Mitch. Difference is Dak has been in the league longer and many cowboys fans don’t know if they want to extend him. In terms of ability they’re about the same with a slim edge to Dak maybe but moving forward I’m still taking Mitch. And again the 16 game prediction is much more respectable than his (Mitch’s) actual stats.
So reality doesn't mean more than prediction. Got it.
