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.

Why Ledarius Mack is not just Khalil Mack's Little Brother

I've been wanting to do this article for a while now, and I finally did it. I was pretty excited when the Bears signed Ledarius Mack and I went a little deeper to see what he really is. I then found it. Sure, there was plenty of hype surrounding him just because he is Mack's little bro, but he isn't just hype. He is a PLAYER. And, Mack improved greatly from when he was playing at ASA college. But, enough talk. I'll show you some film and talk. Disclaimer: even though I am breaking down DE and off-ball linebacker film, he is probably going an off-ball LB for the Bears. But, he could be used like Belichick will use Josh Uche.  First, we will go with his weaknesses. Every player has their weakness, and that's just part of the game. (Yes, even Patty Mahomes. It's that he is tempted to throw a no-look pass whenever someone is open.) But Mack's weaknesses are not very concerning. They can be be easily fixed with the Bears' coaches. These coaches will teach a l...

Week 7 overview

  The time has come (cue the dramatic music), for Justin Herbert to TORCH the Jags. PICK HIM UP. I am telling you right now. Before the article. I picked him up on his bye week. That's how confident I am in him now. Not 6 weeks ago, but now I am confident he is the next big thing. Notice I didn't say Mahomes or Jackson. He is his own type. Mahomes is his own type, and Jackson is another breed. Herbert plays more traditionally with a pocket-presence like a statue, but with a flair of both Jackson and Mahomes. Anyway, enjoy guys. Big game picks: Eagles: 27 Giants: 23 This is the only interesting one I could find (other than the one below this and the Bears game). Like do we really expect the Broncos to be competitive against the Chiefs? (Maybe, who knows. Vic Fangio didn't get hired for nothing. But anyway, Carson Wentz will somehow burn the Giants because he has..... TRAVIS FULGHAM (I'm really high on him). The Giants did do some good things, but it won't be good eno...

NFL Talk 1

Hello guys, welcome to another post from me. Sorry I haven't been posting lately, but high school grind has already started. So, I may not post every week, but I will try my hardest. Also this one will be a little short because I started this on Friday. I promise the other ones will be better.  Big game picks: Chiefs: 30 Pats: 23 If someone can stop the Ravens run game, they can stop any run game. Yes I know this is Bill Belichick and he's going to try to get creative with the running and most likely put RPOs and a lot of that. But, Tyrann Mathieu is not called the Honey Badger for his liking of honey. He will most likely shut it down. And L'Jarius Snead looks to be a steal. Pair that will a good Chiefs good defensive front, I think Bill Belichick will have some trouble (yes I know he is the GOAT of all coaches). I think the Chiefs are going to burn Gilmore, have Sammy Watkins underneath, or CEH doing to usual juking and insane acceleration (seriously, does that guy not hav...
