I've considered it. That's why I'm fine with him sitting a few games. There was no level of play that Trubisky could've played at that would've won him the starting job, which I think is silly. We shall see how it plays out. I've lost all on confidence in Fox for good reason. You won't see me questioning Belichick or Harbaugh. Those guys are masters.
It doesn't seem like it will, which is very surprising to me. I was excited about the Fox hire. Shame it hasn't worked out. I think Fox is just burnt out.
If he's good enough, you don't think he can learn more on the field than riding the bench?
Yes and no. Again, not being at practices, I don't know his mindset and how he reacts to adversity. Again, this is why I trust the people that know him better than I do. It's easy to say everyone is wrong when I have no skin in the game.
I'm not sure if it's best or not. I suppose it depends on how the rest of the team looks. If the rest of the team is struggling I wouldn't want Trubisky out there getting his butt kicked too. All I can do is sit back, watch and hope for the best.
Well we already know we have a solid interior OL and a group of very good running backs. If those things are clicking, that's enough to put a young QB in a good situation. The team could easily be struggling because of Glennon's incompetence.
I think they have a better roster now than they have had in years. Easy to see the difference in talent. But mostly because we have a potential franchise qb for once. There's a lot to look forward to.
Every RB I've seen has looked decent so far other than Howard I guess but he's been very limited. Cohen, Carey, Cunningham and Rounds have looked decent.
That's where things get interesting. Pace can keep Trubinksy off the field one way or another, but will he have the balls to go to the mattresses with Fox over it, if Fox is determined to play him.
In hearing the recent interviews from both, I think Pace wants Trubisky out there more than Fox. If Fox wanted him out there more, he wouldn't have had less playing time the week after having probably the best game of anyone in week 1
Yeah, I just to understand the reasoning. (except maybe that Fox's job may be on the line) Too many QB's flame out because they are thrown to the wolves too soon. Let Mitch watch this year and bring him along slowly. As I mentioned, they're going nowhere this season. Get a few more players next year and then start to stack the wins.
Best way to lose your team is keep the best player on the bench. Let Glennon go out there and lay an egg week after week, while Mitch stays on the bench, you'll lose this entire team. They don't give a damn about sitting and waiting a year for the rookie to "learn." If Mitch gives the team the best chance to win and they don't play him, the whole team will give up.
How do you know what the players are thinking?
Well, we do know that Glennon sucks in the game and Trubisky hasn't. Practice comes down the list from there.
I agree but I still don't think it's an even comparison yet. We're going to need to see Trubisky starting with the same group of guys and running the same offensive plays. My gut says that Trubisky really is that much better though.
I really think this is the game that Trubisky needs to get in with the first team guys. Week 4 they should be sitting the majority of all the starters so even if Trubisky starts then he'll still be with the back ups.I'll be at the game this Sunday. Would love it if Mitch got some time early in the game.
I heard a great idea on the radio this morning. Just announce Glennon as the week one starter so he doesn't have to think about it then play Trubisky with the first team more the rest of the preseason.
This applies to every team. Does this mean that Glennon could be the right QB? or does it have to be Trubisky in your opinion.
Totally disagree about them easily beating Tampa. If you mean there's a fair chance, okay. But I'd bet on the bucs there if I were to bet. Agree on the other two.
