In fairness, Garrett was quite impactful on Mason Rudolph's head. [Reply]

I don't see Foles as any big improvement either.
Cam???
No team in NFL history (Bears been there since day one) have had a worst collection of QB's. Hell, a case can be made that old timer Sid Luckman who is a HOFer was their best ever, and if he wasn't, then.....Jay Cutler?

Chicago gets a lot of criticism for not taking Mahomes, but Cleveland deserves just as much for passing on Mahomes and Watson when they needed a QB. They took Kizer in the second round and ended up going 0-16. [Reply]
their fans are going to remember that draft and passing on Mahomes for the next century. 30 years from now their young fans that grew older will still sadly say "we took Trubisky over Mahomes, sigh" [Reply]
I’ll always wonder what would the Chiefs look like right now if Watson and Mahomes both went top 5. Would we have taken Turdbisky? Would we still have Smiff? [Reply]
