Panthers tried to deal Cam to the Bears, Pace turned it down.

[Black Rainbow]

Some of the rumors are coming to surface, like Foles was the target for the Bears the whole time. Carolina wanted to deal Cam to the Bears, but the Bears declined.
- Also a rumor that a Bridgewater deal was close, but was stalled because the Bears wouldn't assure him he was going to start.

Why Bears chose Nick Foles over Cam Newton, Teddy Bridgewater and Andy Dalton

So Nick Foles is the guy who will “push” Mitch Trubisky. At the bare minimum, he’s who the Bears decided is best suited to compete with Trubisky to be QB1; at the most, he’ll walk into training camp as the favorite to win the job. But why not Andy Dalton? Or Cam Newton? Or Teddy Bridgewater? Or...

Well thank fuck for that

 

[JUSTFINGWIN]

Watch Bridgewater light it up.

Watch Bridgewater light it up.

Yea, not happening.

 

[msadows]

Cam was hurt and we couldn't ensure his medicals were true. I mean his team didn't want him, obviously there is something wrong with him.

Teddy Bridgewater had the lowest intended air yards in the league. His average pass was over 2 yards BEFORE the sticks.

He brings a new meaning to checkdown charlie

 

[wklink]

Good. I like Cam Newton as a player but he isn't the same player he was three years ago.

 

[Black Rainbow]

Watch Bridgewater light it up.

That's one of the shakier rumors, but supposedly the Bears wouldn't assure him of starting, so he declined. I guess Pace really is going to have Trubisky start next year...how long that lasts we don't know.

If you think teddy is good i feel sorry for you.

What does it say when a QB, and his agent, don't think he can beat out mitch? lol

What will we be saying in 8 months?:

-Thank God we got Foles. He’s got the Bears in the playoff picture by being average.

-Damn, Cam Newton, a former MVP, is playing really well and has rebounded his career.

-Wow, I guess Teddy Bridgewater really wasn’t just a product of the Saints’ system.

Damn, can't believe Mitch is leading the #1 offense in NFL history.

Who said they didn't think they couldn't beat Mitch? Did him or his agent say this or is this just you making another assumption to make people feel it's true? Maybe he felt he paid his dues as a backup and wanted to be assured that he was gonna have a starting job which Carolina was offering him for the same deal the Bears wanted to give him. The whole thing is just pure speculation to begin with by the media but i've seen during lying season how you believe everything the media says if it's something you want to be true. I would think you'd be smart enough to know how much lying goes on at this time of year.

None of the above.

Not sure if it will be handed or they compete. That said, I think Mitch may actually benefit by watching a real pro run the O for a bit.

Quote From the article....


"I heard the same rumor that Bridgewater was hesitant to come to the Bears because he didn’t think it’d be a fair competition with Trubisky, for what it’s worth. There’s at least a little credence to it, since Ryan Pace did publicly back Trubisky multiple times this offseason, including when directly asked if he expected Trubisky to be his starter at the NFL Combine. Even if you don’t think he meant what he said, those words might've counted for something. "

I don't buy the "Bridgewater was afraid of competing with Mitch " narrative. This is something Bears PR floated out there to look good for taking Foles over Bridgewater.

The KEY here is FAIR COMPETITION ( vs. rigged) . Plus, I believe what the guys in the vid said about Pace wanting to look good when Mitch beats out Foles ( a former SB MVP). I think the Bridgewater camp "smelled " all this, saw it was a set up and told Pace to take a hike.


Pace, deep down..... is still about trying to look good for drafting Mitch over Watson & Mahomes. Pace is about ego , not winning. IMO

The fact that no one has yet to see it is very shocking. Foles was the safest pick up for Pace, since he has been mostly a backup in career. It’s pretty evident that Mitch will get everyone fired next season.

You mean no one has seen a real Qb competition right?
