Chicago Bears: Why team shouldn’t pick up Trubisky’s optionon February 27, 2020 at 1:00 pm

If the Bears are unsuccessful in 2020, they’ll need to tear things down. An unsuccessful Bears’ team will include the firing of Ryan Pace and Matt Nagy for starters. They’ll have to get rid of Trubisky because three bad seasons out of four doesn’t make a franchise quarterback. They’ll have to start from scratch.

There’s no reason to pick up the fifth-year option. It’s not saving the team any money. They still don’t know what they have with him. Can they win with him? Yes, they have before. The question becomes, can they win with him again?

We won’t know until the 2020 season actually starts. If the Bears bring in a veteran quarterback to push Trubisky, they might get better play out of him. It just comes down to what quarterback it is. I’ll be honest, I don’t see the point in that.

I wouldn’t draft a quarterback either. I hear the names Jalen Hurts and Anthony Gordon and I’m not interested.

Hurts won’t be a good NFL quarterback. Experts are comparing him to Kyler Murray for no good reason. Murray was good enough to be a starter in both the NFL and the MLB. Hurts is a good athlete, he just isn’t going to be a great NFL quarterback.

Gordon played in an air-raid offense that saw Luke Falk do well in. Falk has played his way out of the NFL. Gordon will be drafted, I just don’t think he’ll be a solid quarterback. If I’m wrong about either guy, I’m wrong. I’ll be the first one to admit it.

A different quarterback shouldn’t come in the 2020 NFL draft for the Bears. I would let Trubisky play out his contract and see what happens. This is the make or break year for everyone involved though.

If Trubisky’s ever going to be the quarterback I believe he can be, it’ll happen this upcoming season. Once Pace is gone as GM, Trubisky and Nagy will be the ones following him.
