The problem is meatball fans that don't watch the all-22 yet continually whine about the QB position as if they play in a vacuum and aren't dependent on other people doing their jobs.
Can't setup a fucking screen pass without a jailbreak...
Can't run the ball literally at all...
Completely missed assignments...
Special person play design
Patty cake blocking
LT plays 2 hand touch, RG gets shed like a tackling dummy
Can't handle stunts
But please, tell me more about how the QB is the problem.
If only we had Watson or Mahomes we'd never lose a game since apparently they are so godly it doesn't matter how the rest of their team plays.. I'm pretty sure they're both undefeated in their NFL careers right? No?!? Well that doesn't make any sense...

Football isn't played in a vacuum. To try and justify bad QB play by pointing out the rest of the teams shortcomings... Yikes. How's that working out for Rosen?

Oh, FTR, i watch the all-22s to completion every single week. I have been one of the most vocal posters about the ineptitude of the offensive line for the last 2-3 years, far before the more "enlightened" posters decided it was an issue. But yeah... meatball!

Yeah no shit. I just find the constant axe grinding over Watson and Mahomes obnoxious.

Its never going to end, Trubs will ALWAYS be compared to those 2 because he came out the same class (and was picked before those 2), regardless of whether you find it obnoxious or not.. Its not an indictment of Trubs dude, its an indictment of Pace because as it stands now he picked the wrong guy of the 3. That's not really debatable.
You should break down the all-22 of Watson after the Chiefs game, I'm certain he will make multiple plays while getting harassed by a weak Chiefs front because the o-line play in Houston is on par with what we have in Chicago. He'll make mistakes because he will be under constant duress (similar to the Bears), but he will keep his team in it regardless because of how good his talent level is.
No ones expecting Trubs to be like Mahomes. He's simply unfair, and the Bears are in a different place offensively. That ship has long since sailed. However, expecting more than what Trubs and co have shown thus far is perfectly acceptable and understandable. This is not the hill you want to die on bud, i promise you that.

I love how pointing out the rest of the teams deficiencies gets twisted into "justifying bad QB play". Fuck outta here with that shit.

With Mahomes, the Bears are easy SB favorites this year. With Watson, the Bears are probably SB favorites still. With Trubs, the Bears are not SB favorites.
I feel like this concept shouldn't be a difficult one to grasp. Both of those guys would cover up many deficiencies on this team. There's a reason QB is the consensus most important position in all of sports, and it's because of players of that caliber.

Great point, you nailed it. Over 30 years of being a die hard fan of a team you're desperate to see win a championship pales into comparison with getting to be right on a message board about the latest disappointing QB. You totally have me pegged, I'm rooting for him to fail.
FFS lol.

And yet they don't cover up the deficiencies on their own teams..? see: KC vs Indy Sunday night game.

I haven't seen anyone claim that Trubisky is the only problem, as I never saw anyone claim in all these years that Cutler was the only problem. Obviously the line, particularly 72 and 75, and been shit this year. But Trubisky is also shit.
The problem with you, Broc, is you seem to think the other issues are the only reason WHY the QB is shit, until you eventually realize that QB is also shit. This time will be no different.

Lmao, unless you win EVERY single game you aren't "covering up deficiencies"? Are you high? Mahomes took his team to the conference championship in his 1st year starting. And guess what? He'll be there again.
And the sad part is, outside of QB the bears are the far superior team.

Mahomes made some dude I legit never heard of (and neither did anybody else, I assure you) into a 100 yard receiver in that Indy game lol

If these two end up becoming HOF QBs and Trubisky actaully busts...then Pace's trade up to bet against himself will be forever talked about as one of the most boneheaded moves in draft history.

The problem with you, Mick, is you're STILL butthurt that Pace didn't draft your boy Watson and thus completely incapable of being objective in evaluating Mitch because you have an axe to grind.
I have no problem calling Mitch out on his issues (inconsistent accuracy and decision making) but you axe grinders exaggerate the issues and talk like he's Ryan Leaf. Get a grip.
If the rest of the team was playing lights out and he was the only one sucking and holding the team back it'd be a different story. But that's not the case.
I also find it laughable that you guys act like simply swapping in Mahomes or Watson would be some automatic guaranteed SB win. Sorry this isn't Madden guys.

Bearmick acts like he is the smartest guy on the board because he liked Watson coming out. What he doesn't tell you anymore is he liked Paxton Lynch even more who couldn't even beat out Brock Osweiler.
