I& #39;ve been trying to grasp my feelings about the entire Mitch Trubisky saga for some time.
Why am I so upset by it?
It isn& #39;t like he& #39;s the first QB the #Bears have whiffed on. One would think they& #39;d all blur together, right?
I think I figured it out.

What hurts most about it is the team did everything right. For the first time in forever, they got themselves into a position where they could take the first quarterback in a draft.
Not just a regular one too. A draft that seemed strong at the position. #Bears

Think about it. In years past, they seemed to hit their low point too early.
In 1982, they grabbed McMahon. One year before Elway, Marino, and Kelly arrived in & #39;83.
In 2003, they took Grossman. One year before Manning, Rivers and Roethlisberger arrived in & #39;04. #Bears

Everything finally lined up in 2017. They had the #3 pick and their choice of any QB available.
It was the best opportunity they& #39;ve ever had...
...and they blew it.
They got the fastball right down the middle and still swung and missed. That is what hurts the most. #Bears

It& #39;s one thing to overlook a future gem like a Tom Brady or Dak Prescott.
This was the scenario few teams actually get to see. A top pick with every QB available. Something worth tanking for.
A chance to finally get out of purgatory only to get cruelly shoved back in. #Bears

Trubisky isn& #39;t a bad QB. By #Bears standards, he& #39;s better than most we& #39;ve seen. That doesn& #39;t mean much though.
Compared to Mahomes and Watson, he& #39;s wholly inadequate.
Which is a shame because he& #39;s a good kid. Works hard. He wants it. If anything, that just makes it worse.
