Not as sharp as last week, but some had to do with the shitty playcalling and garbage OL he was playing with. There were too many run plays called on 1st and 2nd down that resulted in negative yardage, putting him in long distance situations. His ball placement wasn't as good. A lot of his pass attempts were towards the ankles of the receivers, and two of his passes were put in harm's way. One almost got picked near the sideline (although the receiver slipped coming back to the ball, which messed up the timing), and the other was on a deep pass that was thrown too far to the inside and not towards the sideline where only the receiver could make a play. Despite all that, he still ended up completed 75% of his passes (6 for 8 for 60 yards and 1 TD). The kid has talent. I do think that he was having a bit of trouble identifying Arizona's exotic blitz packages. That's something to keep an eye on for later if he were ever to play in a regular season game. That's to be expected for most rookies, though. That'll come with time.

Playcalling not helping Trubisky out. And he's getting killed playing behind the 3rd string OL. Stupid as hell having him out there as the #3.

Glennon looks like a guy on his way out of the league soon. This is Todd Collins-level bad.

Langford is going to get cut. Howard is the surefire #1, and it looks like Tarik Cohen is going to be the #2, as his role in the offense is projected to be very large. Carey and Cunningham all have special teams experience, which Langford does not. He's the odd man out, in my opinion—especially if he can't get back on the field before pre-season is over.

He's going to be 29 already before the end of the year. How many good years does he even have left in him? This was partly the reason I did not like it when they drafted him. With these injuries starting to pile up on him, his career could be over sooner than we think.

That's insane. I know he had one intentionally incomplete pass to stop the clock, and then there was the Daniel Brown drop and the Cruz drop that cost him some completion % numbers too. The deep ball he threw to Cruz also should have been a flag, which wouldn't have counted had that play been properly ruled. The only true miss throws he had I think were the two batted balls and the last one that went out of bounds as time expired. So, yeah.. Trubisky's accuracy is really freakin good!

Dak Prescott played against 2nd, 3rd, and 4th stringers last year in pre-season too before Tony Romo got hurt. His first few drives came against Denver's 2nd unit, so it's not like he was only out there against a garbage crew. But yes, I do agree that we shouldn't get too carried away over one pre-season game. But the stuff we did see tonight, I think there is definitely a legitimate reason for optimism.

My conclusion after tonight's game is that the Bears are going to blow this year, but Trubisky looks really good. He very easily could have had 3 TD's tonight. I was really blown away by his accuracy. I had heard Pace talk about it extensively after the draft, but I didn't realize he was THAT good with his ball placement. Some of the throws he was making on the move tonight reminded me a little bit of Romo or Rodgers. His deep ball looks like it could use a lot of work, but other than that, there wasn't a single bad thing you could say about him tonight. I also love how he quietly had almost 40 yards on the ground tonight. His ability to run, as well as throwing it, will always keep the defense honest. Watching him tonight got me pumped for the future. It's only one game, but damn. Kid looked really good out there. Hats off to him.

Whitehair should remain where he is. No need to move him. He's been great as a center.

That's true, but if Trubisky sucks, there is no replacement for a real franchise QB, and if the Bears are in position to land one again next year and pass because of what they think Trubisky will be, it'll be a tough pill to swallow. But yeah, hopefully he's good and we won't have to worry about it. My gut tells me otherwise, though.

The funny thing is, the Bears are going to have a top 3 pick again next year (most likely #1) in a year when the quarterback class is supposed to be better, but they won't be able to after what they gave up for Trubisky..

My god this draft has bust written all over it. So many players taken from small schools, and a quarterback who's only had 13 starts in college.

LOVE this pick. Perfect compliment to Howard.

I think they're almost forced to trade back now to get back at least a 3rd rounder.

Lol. This franchise sucks.

Adams has been my #1 guy from almost the beginning. The leadership + the production + the intangibles make him a no brainer top 3 pick, and it's that exact reason why the Bears won't take him. They'll take one of the injured guys, Allen or Hooker, and watch Adams become the next Brian Dawkins.

They now are the least talented team in the NFL after losing Alshon.

Alshon going to the Eagles for 1 year 14M.. The Bears are losing their best receiver for what amounts to much less than what the franchise tag would have been. Ryan Pace is officially one of the worst GM's in the NFL.

I had high hopes for Ryan Pace in the beginning, but it has become very clear that he has absolutely no idea what he's doing. What are you rebuilding if you constantly get rid of your better players ever year for guys that aren't as good? How can you develop a quarterback if he has nobody to throw to?

Ryan Pace is a freakin joke. Antrell Rolle all over again. Only thing that would make this worse is if it keeps them from taking Jamal Adams with the 3rd overall pick for Jonathon Allen and his arthritic shoulders.

I'd love Patterson as the special teams returner. It's about time Ryan Pace took that position seriously. Also, give me Bouye over Gilmore. Gilmore has major consistency issues. Not a bad player, but not the guy I'd be throwing my money at if I had the choice between the two of them..

Sounds like a Bears pick to me!

Why the hell wouldn't they just go after Tyrod Taylor?? He's a much better player than Glennon! Whatever they do, they must draft a QB in the 1st 2 rounds. I'm a fan of Kizer and Watson.

1- Garrett 2- Kizer 3- Peppers (Trade down) 4- Adams (Trade down)

If Garrett isn't there, I like either of the two safties, giving a slight edge to Peppers because of special teams. Then draft your future QB in the 2nd round.
