I can clarify here. Travis Bagent is an arm wrestling legend. One of the best left handed arm wrestlers ever and did very well right handed to. Currently he is not a top guy but still very strong.

[@TonyDabs]

No hes decent, but the bears will ruin him, 16 year fan and the bears have made 2 mvp worthy defenses and probably the worst at building any qbs especially new ones, hell look at fields, it's not fields fault, they failed him, no offensive line, good recievers who are all shorter than 5'8 and a shit rb, we fucked up trading monty

The Bear's got a Purdy like QB

[@mugsbugsly2975]

Bears fans have a long history of loving our backup QBs. Jim McMahon loved to get hurt so we had Mike Tomczak and Doug Flutie. When the Bears went to the superbowl in ‘06 I wore my Kyle Orton Jersey to see Rex Grossman start. Then more recently when Jay Cutler went down we had the ever reliable Josh McCown. Bagent is an ice cold workhorse with a movie worthy story. The Chicago papers ran deep dives on the work he’d do. When he learned the bears called plays via helmet radio he hurry rigged his own and had a buddy call plays to him into the helmet radio then he’d run the play by himself, just to get used to it. The first time he’s live outside of WV was moving here to be a Bear. He’s played 2 reg season games now and all of Chicago loved him immediately. It didn’t hurt that he won his first ever NFL start. He’s the first D2 QB to start an NFL game since 1954. It’s too perfect for Chicago ppl. We’re eating it up. He’s my new favorite backup QB since Kyle Orton. (Yes I do have a fav backup, we go through a lot). I’ll be glad to have Fields back but it’s been really fun watching Bagent show what he can do. Plus he’s brought out 50+ of his family to each of the last two games. How can you not love it?

[@newbootgoofin__]

And now Tyson beat the Vegas Raiders as starting QB. Things are moving along great! 🐻⬇️

[@RGrant2504]

Division II has a TON of underrated talent that never gets a look. Think about it, many kids in high school didn't get the right coaching or have the same opportunities as others. They go DII and unlock their potential. Bagent is a prime example. Also Cooper Kupp. I also can attest to this. While I didn't go pro, the gain I made in a single year of DII far surpassed anything prior. In a single year I was a completely different player. The right coaching makes all the difference (my college coach was a HoF D1 coach, coached pro against Pele in what would be the MLS, was the head chairman of NCAA men's soccer across all divisions) and can completely change a players vision of the game, correct poorly coached fundamentals, and find how to make the most of a player's abilities.

[@samuelhowie4543]

@@soicyquinn How are they hard to compare. There is a talent disparity across the board but that goes both way. You may have more talented players at the Div 1 level than the Div2 or 3 level but that also means that Bagents record was accomplished with less talent. Bagent did get offers from Div 1 schools coming out of high school but, for whatever reason didn't accept them. Then he got some transfer offers as a college senior and opted to finish where he was instead.
