At this point...I agree...but kinda unfair comparison
I'm not ready to concede Watson will be a better QB than MT, but as an animate Watson supporter before the draft, I want to see those that dissed Watson eat their share of shit. There was a thread just after Watson first start declaring him a bust, I would love to see that thread again to see who posted it and who agreed.......
Watson is the next rg3 I have said it before and I'll say it again lol

It was already known how bad Cutler was when he came to the Bears. Nobody really had a good feel which QB in last year's draft would make the biggest impact in the NFL. Who was that guy who said passing on Watson was like passing on Michael Jordan? Bears should have listened to him.And you didn't jump the gun on Cutler to claim you were right later. I wondered how long it would take for you and Trubisky. I'm amazed it took you this long.
There's a shocker, Bears are probably going to suck at QB, go with that safe bet to convince strangers on the internet you're smart.
It's very clear Watson is in a better situation. The talking heads were saying as much during the draft.
What they didn't know was Bear's coaches were going to be so afraid of playing a rookie.
They won't. I haven't seen one of the Watson haters just admitting they were wrong. If they did you'd probably get fewer threads like these. Right now, of course Watson is better and it isn't even close. As to the future? That depends whether or not you're confident in the Bears coaching and ability to acquire difference-making WR and OL. I'm not confident in any of that, but Mitch has talent and i'm hoping he breaks through regardless.

There was no consensus top guy. What's wrong with you people? You're all so damn stupid!
You're wrong. It's why the Bears' pick and getting fleeced came as a surprise. No QB was rated that high. All we know for sure is different teams had different ideas about who the top QB was. Doesn't take 3 years to see how good QBs are. Didn't take 3 years for Brady, Rivers, Rodgers, Roethlisberger, Wilson, Wentz etc. If it's there and they have it, you'll see it sooner than later.You’re wrong. The vast majority of media that report on the NFL felt Trubisky would be the first qb off the board and that he was considered the best long term prospect but risky, while Watson is the most NFL ready now, safer, but at his ceiling. Not that they are always right, but that is how most felt.
Mahomes going before Watson was the surprise, up until the last 48 hours or so barely anyone thought that would happen.
Again Watson went 3rd, at 12, for a reason which is explained above. Through 7 games looks like the NFL got it wrong, which happens a lot, but it doesn’t change how they were viewed before the draft.
We will see how it all plays out, you need 3 full seasons to really judge QBs and know who they are most of the time.
Not going to address the name calling, doesn’t bother me, your name is Spartan, I’d rather be stupid.
If you think Watson hasn't made a far bigger impact than Trubisky, you shouldn't be throwing the "stupid" word around.Another red bar champion coming to the forum to put how fucking stupid they are on display.

Rodgers sat while a drama queen kept changing his mind about retirement. When Rodgers took the field, you knew he was that good right away. Don't overrate sitting. Ben had a 98 rating his rookie year and won the SB his 2nd. Didn't take long at all to see what he had.Are we talking qb rated that high,or top rated qb? That’s two different things. It was considered a weak qb class because each guy had various weaknesses which I explained.
It does take about 3 years to really know what you have. Rodgers sat for 3, it took him until his 5th chance to get a comeback win, he failed the first 4 times, that’s after sitting for years! Rivers sat, Big Ben won games but didn’t put up stats. Brady sat.
Point is it takes time to peak, rarely do qb peak year 1 so it is hard to judge them just based off their rookie years. Especially one with 13 college starts and it was KNOWN would take time to develop.
Guy might be a troll but Watson has been amazing. I was doing back flips when the Bears traded up because I knew they were going to take Watson, then my heart dropped when I heard Trubisky.
I still think Trubisky will be a fine QB in the NFL with the right coaching, question is will he get it here.
Although I was a Watson guy I will reserve judgment until at least another year. No surprise Watson was more NFL ready day 1. Trubisky will hopefully be the better QB long term.
When is the last time you saw the Houston offense be this good?On draft day I preferred Watson. But the situations they are in right now are not remotely comparable. Anyone making proclamations at this point is just a blowhard troll
