If they bring Alex in, they most likely cut/trade Trubisky. He's going into the last year of his rookie contract, and they won't take the 5th year option on him. There's no mentoring a QB after he's started for 3 seasons - he done in CHI, if they bring any other starter in. [Reply]

I saw this on ESPN this AM. Really respect Alex, but he should never step on a football field again. His life is going to be complicated enough with the injuries he's already received. Take the millions, enjoy life. He won't coach because coaching is too hard for too little money. Unless you become a head coach, that that's still hours and hours away from home and very hard work. Just ride off into the sunset with your millions and enjoy your family dude... [Reply]

Great points. He should definitely retire. This injury almost cost him his life.
I have softened my stance on Alex to where I really respect the guy for how he mentored Mahomes. He helped program our Cyborg to destroy defenses. [Reply]

I never disliked Alex. He was the best available at the time. Almpst a "love the one your with" QB. LOVED how he mentored PMII!! He is a good guy and I wish hem well. Oh, and hot wife! [Reply]
