Mitchell Trubisky is the best play

Mike Sando on Trubisky (from the Pick Six article quoted in the other thread)

4. Speaking of QB desperation, perhaps you’ve seen reports Mitch Trubisky could be in demand as a starter, commanding an eight-figure contract.

Imagine studying Trubisky’s career, noticing the Chicago Bears had a 35-25 (.558) record in all his starts and thinking that kind of team success might be replicable elsewhere with Trubisky in the lineup. Believing that requires focusing on the Bears’ questionable offensive coaching/personnel and thinking one season as a backup in Buffalo has helped Trubisky, while discounting quantifiable factors. The best thing about 2021 for Trubisky’s asking price was the fact he didn’t have to play.

Trubisky is one of 55 quarterbacks to make at least 30 regular-season and postseason starts over the past decade. His Chicago offenses ranked 40th out of the 55 in expected points added (EPA) per game, according to TruMedia. His combined Bears defenses and special teams ranked third among the 55.

If you’ve got a dominant defense/special teams, you might also win 56% of your games despite getting poor production from your quarterback/offense. If you do not possess those things and decide to sign Trubisky anyway, you’re betting on a Trubisky-led offense performing better than Trubisky-led offenses have performed across 60 starts in the past — perhaps much better, depending on how weak your defense/special teams might be.

If you bring him in here on a reasonable contract ( below average ) to compete with Darnold...bet. Otherwise get a Vet FA and roll with him and Darnold and spend nothing in draft capital on a QB this year. We gotta get the fug out of this mess.
