topwop1 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I'm happy for Mitch. This will certainly be a nice confidence booster for him. Just a little surprised that Matt Ryan wasn't selected ahead of him and Dak but hey that's the pro bowl for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Whitehair shoukd have been a natural selection. I c ok insider both deserving. That's now 7 Bears who will play in the probowl this weekend.

Although, it is not as ridiculous as some make it out to be.At the same time the National narrative and even a couple of people locally about Mitch is so over the top idiotic, that to me this Pro Bowl is a slight natural correction in the discussion.I am happy because of how idiotic Lombardi, Barnwell, PFF, and Cowherd went with their Trubisky takes when the truth was somewhere far more in the middle. For a national narrative that consistently moved the goal posts on the Mitch discussion it is some sweet revenge. It started with he is "No Deshaun Watson" then when he started playing as well as Watson it moved to "Well he isn't Mahomes". I am not going to spike the ball and declare Mitch a true Pro Bowl QB, but I am going to sit back and enjoy this a little. You left out some folks, including Bayless and Collinsworth. Although, as a national color guy, Collinsworth can't rant, only improperly process what he's actually seeing--which ends up being far worse. 7 hours ago, beardown3231 said: Leno and Whitehair are now in the Pro Bowl, too. Whitehair should have been a no-brainer. Happy for Leno. Excited to see the Packer zombies respond to all this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ty21 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 This is probably the most undeserved pro bowl nom I’ve ever seen. I genuinely said what the **** when I saw it. I like tru and all but he didn’t even remotely deserve a pro bowl this year. Straight up the 11th best nfc qb this year statistically. He didn’t deserve a pro bowl this year.

He didn’t deserve a pro bowl this year. But he played in Chicago and had maybe the best year ever for a Bears QB, so naturally he got more looks. I don't mind the attention. My favorite team being completely forgotten about for the last decade (almost) got old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of that 6 td game, a subpar season being the best year ever for a bears qb is so depressing hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t deserve a pro bowl this year. How do you reach the conclusion that he was 11th best in the NFC statistically? He was: 7th in comp% (really 6th bc Fitzpatrick is in there with 7 games and is fractions ahead of him) 6th in TD% (again Fitzpatrick is one ahead of him) 6th in TDs 10th in passer rating 2nd in QBR 7th in NYA 8th in ANYA Literally there is no measure in which you can say he was 11th best statistically.

BEAR FACE DOWN ARROW Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Based on what I saw this year, I'd say he's unequivocally better than the following NFC QB's: Smith, Rosen, Stafford, Manning, Prescott, Cousins, Mullens, Newton, Winston. I'd put him in the same grouping as (based on this year) Wentz, Rodgers, Ryan, Goff. Ahead of him I'd put Brees, Wilson. I think he's ranked about right for the Pro Bowl actually. I think Rodgers, Newton, Wentz and Ryan have all looked better than Mitch in the past, but this year is this year. Goff has better stats, but I think they are both not fully developed QBs. If Mitch can really nail the mechanics this year, and get more reps with the same guys, what do you think his potential is next year? I expect ball security to improve and think you'll also see bigger pass plays next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
