The Chicago Bears Are the Best Kind of Bad Team

Fun read and interesting take. And I agree, this team is watchable as long as the D is playing well and there is a run game going.
But this quote definitely comes from an outsider's perspective:
"The best-case scenario for the Bears and their first-round draft pick Mitchell Trubisky is that he proves himself to be the second coming of Sid Luckman. The worst-case scenario is that he’s the second coming of pretty much any other Bears quarterback. It’s this kind of low-stakes uncertainty that makes for an erratic and happy-go-lucky team in flux. They make purgatory fun."
Low stakes my ass. The development of Trubiski is about as high stakes as it gets if you are a bears fan.
