You said directly what you expect of him as a #2 overall pick..... how is that not what you said? Derp.
If you want to argue he was drafted too early that’s fine but you can’t say he won’t continue to develop or cunt about his rate because he was drafted #2 overall.

This seems to be the same problem with Cutler. As soon as he got the bad contract everyone started bitching non-stop.
Trubisky could be as bad as the many QBs drafted #1, had pedestrian careers but good enough to stick, but because the Bears drafting a QB #2 has been so rare since 1951 if we don't get a great one with the only try to get a great one in 67 years doesn't provide the next Peyton Manning faster than the first Peyton Manning he's a bust.
If we end up with Stafford with the #2 but someone else gets Newton with a lower pick, not necessarily a better QB but the team goes to the Super Bowl, we got a bust.
And unless he's is being touted as a great one, as soon as Trubisky gets a vet contract he's going to be a bust and even more will be bitching.
If Trubisky was drafted in the 7th round playing the exact same way these idiots would love him. It's all about the value even though they're not the ones paying.
We almost beat the Packers in the first game of a new offense and they're bitching about it instead of seeing where this could be heading.

I was contrasting former NFL players and coaches to some CCS posters and you are going with some CCS posters to have better insight? Cool.

Actually I'm going with my own brain and eyes rather than people willing to tell you anything to get clicks or sell ads. You should try it.
Do you really think when Aikmen tells you he knows what a play was that he would know because he's a former player but the opposing coach wouldn't know?

I have no idea what that has to do with CCS experts. If you're asking if Troy Aikman knows more about football than you do, yes, of course, not even close. Based on this thread, I feel strongly that I know more about football than you do. Mitch has not played well, that is what I have seen and I trust my eyes on that, the fact that the rest of the world agrees with me and thinks you're a delusional homer, that's just gravy.

Who said he wont continue to develop?
Let me talk slow for you so your brain can catch up.
“After 14 starts he should be further along.”
“Also all QBs develop to some degree. So the fact that he will develop doesn’t mean he will develop into a good QB.”
“I hope he does as a Bear fan but, like a mother with a 2 year old toddler, seeing 6 month old infants comprehend faster than her 2 year old toddler is concerning.”
You are a little sensitive. I see why they call you “SugarWalls”.

You just killed any credibility that you may have had here, in being seen as objective, with that sentence. That was a perfectly thrown, and placed ball.
A “lucky” toss up, would’ve been something more along the lines of a ball that was deflected into Cohen’s hands.
Of all things that throw was, “lucky” was not a one of them.

I’m very balanced on my view of Trubisky, but you’re right in that when other young QBs make a good play, it’s “a perfectly-placed ball” (Mayfield’s downfield throw that literally almost hit the defender in the helmet), but when Trubisky does it, it’s “lucky”. See also the great pass in preseason to where only Miller could get it.
In any case, time will tell. It seems to me that by the end of this year, we should have a pretty damn big sample size to draw feasible conclusions. I think I know what those conclusions will be, but I’m more than happy to just wait and see and evaluate.

You talking about the Landry catch? It was more of a great catch than a great throw. The DB never got his head around.

Based on you clipping the quote I feel strongly that you only see what you want to see. I don't think I've said Trubisky has played great. I've only said give him time.
If he was actually playing like crap all the time or even most of the time I would gladly say that's enough time. Remember, I'm the one who was willing to use the first round pick on another QB this year to have competition and trade the loser or keep him as a valid backup for the rookie contract. No player is above upgrading.

Nah, it was lucky. And not perfectly placed either. If it was perfectly placed, it would not have pulled Cohen out of bounds.
Sorry, you're very very wrong about things related to football.
You deserve to be banned. I do hope one of our new mods sees this and takes appropriate action.

In those seven games the Rams scored over 30 points per game. Goff was on fire.

Sure, because it's all about the fans expectations. Phrases like that are troll worthy.

Grimson’s comment is directed at my political views, which away from football, lean more in the same direction as your’s. And yet you’re to dense to pick up on it. Mongo is a fitting name.
Furthermore, going back to that so called “lucky” throw to Cohen. Mitch hit Cohen in stride, with a good 3 yards of grass between him and the sideline.
I suggest you re-watch that play. Cohen’s bobble/stumble is what drug him out of bounds.

Lets try not to bring up politics in a football forum.... the new nods are already looking into your previous malfeasance.
As a side note, he threw that ball badly and to the outside. Cohen had to spin completely around to make an incredible catch.
Again, he is lucky he had a great receiver on the end of that lucky throw.
