It was cold, and wrong as usual when it comes to Colin. That got the pick in a trade. Not for their play on the field.

They got the pick because they have Carolina’s first round pick. Colin is a clown.

[@kemosabeusmc]

The bears fired lovie and haven't recovered

[@Sleezygem]

True they had 1 good season since he left

[@kevinc8955]

They didn’t have a good QB even under Lovie. Having a dumpster fire Qb, historically great defense, and a first ballot HOF punt returner that you are ENTIRELY dependent on to score points isn’t a recipe for continued success.

[@kemosabeusmc]

@kevinc8955 they were 10-6 and didn't make the playoffs. That's what happened. The bears were used to playoff berths, and the second they didn't get one they panicked. Front office set that team back a decade

[@midwestkrazy83turner50]

Lovie hasn't done anything since The Bears neither!!! Stop this clown a** nonsense

[@thegreatsambino659]

No, The Bears won the Superbowl in 1985 and are still recovering.

[@timswabb]

The other huge difference is ownership. The Bears are owned by Virginia Halas McCaskey, daughter of the great George Halas, who died in 1983, 41 years ago, shortly before the Bears’ last Super Bowl win under the coaches George Halas hired before his passing. The McCaskeys treat the Bears as a cash cow, and it’s their primary source of income. And none of them have a background in football. The Packers are a publicly held nonprofit mostly owned by longtime fans in Wisconsin. They are the only such entity in American major league sports, grandfathered in when rules were adopted prohibiting such an ownership structure. No one is allowed to hold more than about 4% of the Packers shares. The elected President of the Board of Directors represents the Packers at owners meetings and is the only officer who receives compensation. Their current President and CEO, Mark Murphy, is a former NFL player who also earned an MBA and JD and had a successful career as an attorney and athletic director before the Packers hired him. In short, the person with the power of an owner in the Packers organization is far more qualified to run an NFL franchise than any other owner in the league, let alone Virginia McCaskey, who may be the least qualified owner in the league, lacking NFL experience, legal experience, or business experience. Although the Green Bay owners don’t have the resources of billionaires, they also aren’t in it to maximize profits. They want to maximize wins. And they have the freedom to hire the best qualified candidate they can find to carry out that mandate with minimal interference from the hundreds of thousands of shareholding owners.

Let’s be real though, does anyone have confidence the Bears could develop Caleb Williams? Look what they just did with Trubitsky and Fields in the last 8 years. Is it really that crazy to believe they’re just better off investing in the D and O lines and signing a game manager veteran QB? I think that’s enough to make them a WC contender and playoff spoiler. And honestly I think that’s a realistic ceiling for this franchise.

No development - In GB there was always a starter to sit behind and learn... Not the case in Chicago, they just get thrown to the wolves-

[@dmarcellus]

Spot on.

[@soxnotsocks]

It speaks to GBs incompetence that the bears have only one fewer superbowl than the bears in the last 40 years. 30 years of Favre and Rodgers only gets you 2 'chips. That's awful.

[@joesales6894]

Well I wouldn’t really talk bad about a historic major franchise lacking while defending the bears, who are borderline becoming known as a poverty franchise. The bears aren’t really a team to boast about unless you’re comparing them to the panthers lmao

[@soxnotsocks]

@joesales6894 what is GB without the QBs? Would they be better than the Bears or Lions? I dont remember HoF RBs playing for the Pack. I dint remember HoF LBs playing for the Pack. I mean look at the pats. They got QB right and won 6. Steelers got it right and won 2 (in the same conference as Peyton and Tom). Chiefs get it right and they are at 3. All in a lot less time as the Pack. Packers don't draft well. Ya had good WRs, but I bet the QBs helped that a ton. 30 years of Brett and Aaron and ya have the same ammount of superbowls as Trent dilfer and Joe Flacco. Who is even keeping the Pack from the superbowl? Brad Johnson, Matt Ryan, Chris Chandler and Colin kappernick? Lawl. That's a murders row of QBs keeping the pack out of the superbowl in the NFC

[@joesales6894]

@@soxnotsocks yeah bro literally any argument you could make against the packers immediately becomes irrelevant since you’re rooting for the bears.

[@poisonoak2719]

Colin which one of those Packer QBs you mentioned got drafted in the early first round? Oh, none? Hmmm it’s almost like you should let your young QBs develop in to the franchise talent you think they’ll be when you draft them instead of evaluate immediately and throw them away 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@kevinc8955]

So draft Caleb and keep him behind Justin for a year. Or trade Justin for a veteran and again, let Caleb sit behind him for a year. But Fields isn’t it. It doesn’t take 4 years to know what you have. It’s been 3, hes not the guy.

[@arigatogyro260]

Say what you will about this man and his takes but, That last line was cold

[@TheMetal213]

Packers also have a far better history of drafting & developing o-line & WR and have stable ownership. Once again, Colin only looks at one variable and makes it the be all, end all point of the topic.

[@WrestlingForever342]

I agree, it all depends on the system. If you have a good quarterback in a good system then ofc you are going to have success. You can be talented yet you won’t do well because of the things around you. Football is a team sport, not one person

[@kevinc8955]

What specifically did Packer ownership do to train Favre or Rodgers to be great QBs? Be specific. McCarthy doesn’t look like a great coach with a mediocre QB. Neither did Holmgrem.

He makes it sound like the bears have the #1 pick because we were the worst team this year… it was the panthers pick. The bears are on the rise, especially after this offseason, and the fact that they can get Caleb at one is a very nice bonus

[@adamadams54321]

The big difference is green bay takes the time to prepare their next quarterbacks. Favre, Rodgers and love all rode the bench learning and waiting for the spot to open. Cj stroud and some others have been able to just come in swinging but actually investing time into a young qb is always better. Ask Brady or mahomies.

I don't remember but Clark is a helluva player. It would have to be a great player for them to spend that on. I don't know what Chicago's problem is with fields. He's a good player.
