I think "continues to develop" is misleading, because he's doing the opposite. But you're right, we're probably looking at another season of him at quarterback so we have little option but to hope for the best.
Edit: I would be very surprised if there isn't some sort of move to at least make a show of a competition, like Mariota or similar to the Titans getting Tannehill this season (the irony built into that sentence is not lost on me).
Regardless of what he does the rest of the season, I want them to bring in legit competition next season. Someone that not only will push Trubisky but if he fails you can see if the young backup has anything to him before you look to the draft in 2021. Far from ideal but it lets you hedge your bets a bit.
ZOMG BLATANT DISHONESTY ASIDE (giggle), herein lies the serious problem. The defense is built to win now and should be that way for up to the next three years. Therefore our options are:
1) Keep things as-is and roll the dice with Mitch with Daniel as the backup.
2) Keep things as-is with Mitch and draft a QB in the 2nd round.
3) Keep things as-is with Mitch and sign a veteran.
4) Draft a QB in the 2nd round and make him the starter.
5) Sign a veteran and make Mitch the backup.
6) Sign a veteran, cut Mitch, and either draft a QB in the 2nd round or keep Daniel.
Option #1: Any sign of struggle and the defense will start to check-out again and the season is over.
Option #2: If Mitch’s struggles continue people will be calling for that pick to start.
Option #3: Same as option #2.
Option #4: 100% total roll of the dice.
Option #5: Assuming its one of either Foles, Alex Smith, or Bridgewater, the entire team will get a shot in the arm.
Option #6: We go nuclear and let’s be honest, everybody gets reinvigorated again.
Which option do you believe right now gives us the best chance to win with a three year window based on the defense?
Wouldn’t it have to be options 5 or 6? What is your thought process?
