The Glennon- Trubisky saga moves into the regular season and Mike Glennon is deer in headlights. Since the number two pick in the draft was announced. I imagine it was the same look he had when The Tampa Bay Buccaneers drafted Jameis Winston in 2015. With Winstons’ spotty image from college at Florida State I’m sure Glennon figured like the rest of the league would pass on him instead of using a first round pick on him. For some reason the Bears signed him with the promise of being the starting quarterback. I know fans were ready for Jay Cutler to go but a year or two of him would’ve made signing Mark Sanchez unnecessary much as they talk of his effect on Dak Prescott in Dallas. Cutler is enough of a professional to offer tutelage to the rookie and there would be no deer in the headlights moment. No draft night awkwardness or hand holding by a  man known more for a butt fumble than anything else. The local news ran that video to death upon announcing his signing. All of this is on Ryan Pace. I question who is doing the vetting for the Bears?

They have at least two to three more years of rebuilding. Perhaps with another head coach. Maybe from the college ranks or Vic Fangio. How much of this growth will include Ryan Pace? I’d say none because Glennon will have been benched and Trubisky the starter. What could get Pace fired mid season is that exact scenario. The Bears won 3 games last year and they’re looking at another season far below .500. How far below depends on who is the quarterback. The Bears have entered Tennessee Titans, Jacksonville Jaguars territory. I would include the Cleveland Browns in that mix but it’s possible they may have improved more than Chicago and could beat us again as bad as they did in the final pre season game but those games don’t count.

The pundits say they will pass the 3 game win total of 2016 and that’s best guess. Nowhere near .500. Heads will roll and Trubisky might be in concussion protocol from getting his ass kicked. Probably among a ton of injuries considering we already lost Cam Meredith in a pre season game meant to milk money from the fans and stoke hope after a week of talk of how many reps Trubisky is getting with the first team. Should Glennon go down for any length of time Chicago fans  will burn the city if they see Mark Sanchez on the field. That is why he makes the cut right? Conner Bart should be the third quarterback (If you want to hire a handler then do so but what is the need to put him in a uniform?) considering he’s on one leg after getting hurt in the final preseason game. Ryan Pace decided to kick the other one out from under him but cutting him. I’m not all gloom and doom. I have the Bears record at 3-5 through the first half of the season. Who knows what happens after that and who will be quarterback.
