same old bears.
The newer bears fans will tell everyone to relax, it’s just practice.
The ones that have been watching for 30+ years know, “it’s just practice” will turn into “it’s just preseason” which turns into, “it’s still early in the season. There’s time to turn it around”. Then the season ends and the offense in the last game of the season looks as shitty as it did the first practice, regardless of regime, scheme, qb, etc.
That's the cynical way of looking at it.
The past does not determine the future when those in charge have been hired to correct the mistakes of the past.
I am a 50 y/o lifelong Bears's fan. The cynical part of me agrees with everything you say.
The rational part of me understands that the past doesn't predicate the future.
I feel something different with this group.
They traded Mack, etc. with no buffer for fans to digest the situation.
They did it because they feel confident in their vision of building a consistent contender .
I am skeptical but I also believe that this group
has the authority to do whatever is needed to turn the team into a consistent contender and they felt that fans would be numb to virtually any move that pushes the team in that direction.
My skepticism is because I do not have any evidence (yet) that they are the ones that can get it done.
I'm optimistic but not 100% convinced.
The only thing that does that for me is a history to back it up.
I hope that they build that here.
