Who will win? Nick Foles or Mitchell Trubisky


The answer is: Both. 

Why I think this is because both have not been really good ever except for Foles in the playoffs for some reason. They both were bottom 10 QBs in like almost every stat.

Foles: 

Strengths-

Has been in the West Coast system before (and been very good)

Can run RPOs

He is familiar with the QB coach

Can be accurate when there are wide open receivers (we Bears fans adore that. Other people wouldn't understand).

Really good in the playoffs

Weaknesses-

Can be bad with a new team as we saw earlier in his career

He is coming off being injured almost the entire season and has never played a full 16 game season

Even when he came back he was benched for Minshew (Love that man)


Trubisky: 

Strengths-

He can run the ball pretty darn well if he's given the chance (Watch the Cowboys vs Bears game)

He didn't throw as many interception as last season (I know this is stupid, but still)

He can throw on the run well

He has been in this offense for more time than Foles

He knows this team and the players better

Weaknesses-

He admitted that defenses sometimes miff him with coverages
 
He misses wide open receivers

His footwork and mechanics still need developing



Obviously there is a QB competition because Mitchell Trubisky has been bad, but I think he hasn't been coached the best. His footwork still needs work and the play calls weren't exactly his strengths for most of the season. He is good when throws on the run and runs with the ball. Coach Nagy should go by what Coach Belichick says. You have to use the person to their strengths, not focus on their weaknesses.

One person to root for on every NFC North Team

Since there are no major injuries because people can't even play with each other in this current period of time we are living in, we will talk about something fun.  The NFC North. My favorite division that has some of the best players in the league such as Khalil Mack, A-Rod, Dalvin Cook, and Kenny Golladay when healthy. It is also in my opinion one the most competitive except for when they play the Lions (sorry Lions fans). But there will be those players that are unknown to most people, yet have so much potential to be great or are really good and don't get the recognition. So lets hop into it. Photo by Dylan Buell/Getty Images Bears: JP Holtz You all know will get to know that I love this guy because he has the mentality that everyone needs to have. Hard work and determination. He is an impressive blocker, and he can execute screens and catch passes when given the chance. You might want to refer to the Chargers vs Bears game when Holtz lined up in the backfield.

Trading Yannick Ngakoue

Yannick Ngakoue is clearly upset at the Jags. He has to wanted to get out of there since before the draft. We all know that you don't play and work the hardest when you're not interested. The Jags should trade him before his value keeps going down. Or, they could trade him for at the trade deadline, but that would be risky because they would be betting that he plays well. So, here's some trade packages that the Jags could ship him out for.  1. Seattle gives: Will Dissly and 2nd round pick     Jacksonville gives: Yannik Ngakoue This trade makes a lot of sense for both teams. Seattle has Greg Olsen, and they can draft a new TE in the draft next year. But, they need help badly on the edge. They do have Darrell Taylor, but he is unproven. They also can't ride Bruce Irvin forever. Him and Benson Mayowa are lested as the starters. Not very impressive.  2. Arizona gives: Chirstian Kirk and 3rd round pick     Jacksonville gives: Yannik Ngakoue  The Cardinals d...
