Maniacal laugh! Maniacal Laugh!!!

Without Forte and a solid running game they’ll need a QB that can move the ball and control the speed of the game against the Packers. Good luck with that. Martz will just stick him in and have him fling it down the field for three INT’s.

Or Josh McCown, who was out of the NFL and coaching a football team prior to signing with the Bears.

Haha, until I read your post I assumed they were the same person! Maybe Josh will have better luck than his brother. He is playing the Packers “defense”, after all…

/Packers fan

Enderle should get his chance. Mckown won’t be in the league in 2 weeks from now. That’s for sure, but Enderle, who knows. If you loose to the Packers, what’s the big deal. The season is over.

Ya, you obviously don’t know, because the Enderle pick was all Martz. He fell in love with him.

He’ll probably take over as their 2nd QB next season, but he’s not ready just yet

That’s why he went after Collins and that’s why he drafted Enderle.

What a train wreak that was.

Actually threw two last week….one of which was picked.

With any kind of “serviceable” QB we beat KC & Denver with ease and are sitting 9-5 at worst controlling our playoff destiny. Heck with a decent QB we beat the Raiders & Seahawks as well. Shame on you Lovie on your evaluating skills and thinking Hanie was a good #2 option. Our defense keeps getting older and older and there isn’t many windows of opportunity left for this unit to win it all. Now on top of it you got Forte who looks to be around maybe 1 more year with a franchise tag. Hurd was more of a loss on special teams then at WR but he’s gone, I would expect Roy Williams to be gone and I have serious doubt Johnny Knox will return to play the game again. That leaves us with Earl, Dane and Devin and a group bad at evaluating talent to replenish a WR core that wasn’t the greatest to begin with.

After being drafted by the Arizona Cardinals in the third round of the 2002 NFL Draft, future Cardinals coach Dennis Green said of McCown, “I think he’s going to be a great one, when I buy into a quarterback, I really do.”

I admit I believed in Hanie after the championship game,but in fairness to me other bears fans we had todd collins who martz insisted on signing to compare him to. and as bad as hanie has looked this year collins was worse.

Luke McCown, who was a week one starter ahead of a raw rookie QB.

Or Josh McCown, who was out of the NFL and coaching a football team prior to signing with the Bears.

The NFL can be a crazy league.
