Following the end of the catastrophic Jay Cutler era, a near-decade in which the Chicago Bears earned a postseason berth on one occasion, the team was desperate for a permanent solution to their quarterback troubles. From a historical perspective, in the Bears ninety-five years as a franchise, the team has […]

Is Mitchell Trubisky a True Difference Maker?
Undoubtedly speaking, a change was needed. Mike Glennon, a career-long backup quarterback signed for over $18 million in guaranteed money, was not living up to his already minuscule expectations. Although his completion percentage and knack for managing a game was above par, his touchdown to turnover ratio was underwhelming to […]
Bears Turn to Trubisky

Glennon Ends an Era In Bears History
A tumultuous and mostly forgettable Bears era has recently ended without much eventfulness, which is quite ironic considering that eight years ago, the sports media felt shell-shocked that the Chicago Bears decided to trade away their future for Jay Cutler.

It became apparent after last week’s tumultuous loss, in which Jay Cutler threw yet another interception during a last ditch game-winning drive, that the Chicago Bears are calling it quits on the 2016 season. With their top two starting quarterbacks both out for the season, coupled with crippling performance-enhancing drug […]
It’s Jeremy Langford’s Time To Shine
Last season as the Bears headed into training camp, current projected starting running back Jeremy Langford was merely a small fish in a big pond, trying to prove to coach John Fox that he would be able to succeed at the professional level. Although he proved that he was able […]
Bears Hint At Rebuild With Allen, Bostic Trades
For the second time in the past three years, the Chicago Bears have learned yet another lesson regarding washed-up defensive ends, and hopefully, the moral of this story will remain ensconced in the memory of the front office personnel, coaches, and fans. Reports have surfaced that Jared Allen, the active sack leader in […]
Foxes and Bears Now Rule Chicago Football
John Fox will become the first head coach in Chicago Bears history to hone a last name that also resembles an animal. Putting aside the humor, reports have confirmed that the Bears have hired John Fox to be their fifteenth head coach in franchise history, seceding Marc Trestman and hoping […]
