The Qb's

[Knuckles79]

Is it me are have we been jinxed at the qb position since letting Manning go? We had a great player in Andrew Luck with a shorten career due to multiple injuries and Mentally a good player in Carson Wentz that collapsed mentally and now AR with Multiple injuries to begin his career! When will the Qb problems end.  For the record I do believe AR could be the answer but dang it feels like we got our own Babe Ruth jinxs

It's  just you lol

All organizations go through this. Before Bledsoe and Brady the Patriots were flailing except for that time they got murdered in ‘85 against the Bears… 

 

There was a time period between Starr and Favre with the Packers… The 49ers did nothing until Montana and Young, and then struggled afterwards when they left. 
 

Look how long it took for the Chiefs to get their superstar QB?

Unitas

Jones

Harbaugh (for a minute)

Peyton

Luck….

Yeah, I don’t think this franchise was ever cursed.

Still think Jones had the best spiral.

Miami went through how many QBs after Marino before Tau?  Same with the Bills between Kelly and Allen.  Heck the Bears haven’t had a franchise QB since Sid Luckman.  Lots of teams would love to have the Colts “problems” at QB.

Of all the names you mentioned only 1 was after Manning.  I clearly stated after letting Manning .

Even if mishew starts he is still the back up. Its not like the players read this but he seems more comfortable being back up qb. So be the back up qb.

If the Colts are cursed at QB.....what do you think Bears fans think about their QB history

The "band-aid" approach to the QB position the past several seasons simply has not worked out.

 

The demise of Andrew Luck's career can be traced to our former GM - who played offensive line in the NFL - but - drafted only one significant offensive lineman in his tenure - C Ryan Kelly.

 

No quality linemen = QB demise - no matter what your name is.

To be fair, he did try on the offensive line via draft and FA, maybe even trade?  Hugh Thornton and Khaled Holmes were 3rd/4th round I think, Gosder Cherilus was made like the highest paid RT or something, the guy from the Pats who blew up his quad before ever playing a snap for us(David something maybe?) was supposed to be pretty good.  Grigs just sucked really bad at picking the right guys on the OL.

Not at all.   We have only drafted 1 starting qb since luck retired.

Yeah, man we just were real fortunate.  Most orgs have QB issues most of the time.   We are just one of the hoi polloi now.

Luck was a stud.  Even though he retired early.  We also had a good year from RIvers and some will have a coniption fit but also Wentz.

I was a Bears Fan growing up, and my poor baby brother followed in my footbsteps and has been suffereing as a Bears fan for a long time.   They just can't get a QB.  I don't know if it was you said it, but it's true.  Sid Luckman lol. 

[John Waylon]

Careful. I joked there was a curse a few weeks back and half a dozen nitwits got their panties in a wad to tell me curses aren’t actually real as if I’d just told them I’d seen a woman fly by my window on a broom.

So Andrew retires because of injuries and also sustained a throwing shoulder injury. Now the next high drafted Qb AR has already been riddled with injuries in year one and now also has a injury to his throwing shoulder. It's just seems to me the luck sure hasn't been on our side.

It's a jersey number curse! Minshew is wearing 10. It's the Trudeau karma. And Richardson is wearing 5. That's Blair Kiel's karma. 🤣

[ADnum1]

The curse of Luck. We must exorcize the curse !!

It's more like we've been lucky to win as much up to last season without a long term solution to the most important position in the game

I was going to joke that bagent will be their savior.  I do like his moxy but they are getting Caleb Williams next year.

They can have Williams. I think he's going to be a financial headache. He and his father have already said there are certain teams he won't play for and they hinted they want to be a partial owner of what ever team drafts him . I think they walked that back a bit because of the backlash.
