    Well ... I'd take a flyer on Carson Wentz. Ryan Pace needs someone if only because it might make people forget that he moved up (!) in the draft because he was concerned that someone would get ahead of him for Mitch Trubisky ... with Patrick Mahomes and Deshaun Watson still on the board.

    This must be Pace's last big call if QB play is suboptimal again, correct?

    I’d start with looking at the teams records.

    Word on the street is the Bears have reached out to Tebow

    To teach the next QB(s) how to pose in the end zone?

    Maybe, but check out Gurley's rushing yards/Ram's leading rushing yards - they kind of match Goff's rise and decline.

    2016 - 885
    2017 - 1395
    2018 - 1251
    2019 - 857
    2020- 625 (Akers)

    And it really isn't just one player - rush yards per attempt (team) goes 3.3, 4.3, 4.9, 3.7, 4.3.

    Well, I said the Bears would end up making the worst fucking possible move. And trading anything more than a sixth-round pick for Wentz and his contract might be it.

    Anything more than a second (and maybe fifth) for Wentz isn't taking a flyer, it's mortgaging the whole damn paper mill.

    I hear Mike Phipps, Bob Avellini and Vince Evans are available.

    I don't understand why the Bears just don't figure out a "prove it" deal with Mitchell. Guy was 6-3 as a starter. 67% Completion, 16 TDs, 8 picks. Given the zero faith the organization had in him he played perfectly decent.

    I would like to see Trubisky get to a coach that can use him like Kyle Shanahan with the 49ers.
