The Bears haven't gone deep enough since late era Wannie. They draft offense poorly, never have a quarterback, always trying to play small ball, meanwhile the safeties creep closer and closer to the line of scrimmage.
Foles is standing back there taking hits...he's not skittish. Not athletic, but is the only Super Bowl MVP in the qb room.
I can't imagine what it is that Pace thought he saw in Mitch, after one season as a starter in college after not being able to beat out the guy the year before. We'll HE'LL LEARN ACCURACY. I think he liked all the yes sir no sir and thought that would equal coachability. And to TRADE UP for that...
Some GM's would have TRADED DOWN, picked up Mahomes and an additional first rounder, or just have gone with Carr who had started all four years and been a national champion in college.
