McMahon made the pro bowl in '85.

Any Bears QB in the pro bowl since him?   I don't think so.

Jim's backup at byu? the guy who couldn't beat him out of the starting lineup?  Steve Young.  Even having THE last name if you're a Mormon could't get him the job. Jim was better.  And not a Mormon by any stretch. Young got his own sb trophy btw.

McMahon's biggest problem was staying healthy..

For Dallas, and I hope for the Bears sake that White's brother is right:

What someone would expect a brother to say. We'll see. He's pretty fragile and I would not put a ounce of stock in him as far as counting on him. They need better options at wideout....

He could say nothing.  The point is Kevin White is working hard to get back.  Not just sitting back collecting a pay check.

Can't say that I can recall any drafted Bear having the injury problems of Kevin White - nobody close in the first round.

They do need better options. Absolutely. But it sure would be helpful if you really love the Bears to have him back and productive. This team needs some breaks (no pun) for a change.

The only guy I think of that can compare to Kevin White's injury situation was the Lions' 2003 draft choice Charles Rogers.  He kept breaking his shoulder then became a pot head.  Played 3 years in the NFL.

And the Lions kept drafting WRs in the first round after that.  Remember Roy Williams (ex-Bear) and Mike Williams in 2004 and 2005.  The finally got it right in 2007 drafting Megatron.  So that's 4 WRs in 5 years!
