The problem with the NFL today and the Bears forever is this. Okay so they draft Jordan Love, they throw him in too early and he loses his confidence…..doesnt develop properly and then trade him away. Some QBs are pro ready, some need time….draft a guy thats gonna need time, thats gonna need coached up, and instead throw him in and watch him struggle. They did it to Trubisky, they did it to Fields. Caleb had better be pro ready from day one or this pattern is repeating itself again
My whole life 3,000 yards was the Gold standard and was rarely hit until Dan Marino showed up and threw for 5,000+ in his 1st year as a starter. After that 3,000 became what most good QBs hit now it's 4,000 and that's insane
There is something you somewhat overlooked at 7:38. McMahon wasn’t hampered by his relationship with the team. The Bears were ruined by Charles Martin of the Packers getting one of the cheapest, dirtiest shots of all time on McMahon during the 1986 season. McMahon was out for the season after that and wasn’t ever the same player.
As a lifelong Packer fan, I enjoyed this video. Especially the ending, lol! But to be fair, Jim McMahon's time was wrecked by a cheap shot body slam by Charles Martin and his passing wasn't the same for the rest of his career. You do wonder what would have happened if that didn't happen.
Mad respect for bringing up the Martin cheap shot, as a Bears fan. I remember my Dad showing me that at 5 years old and it seared the rivalry in me for life. Everyone has a team and that's what makes sports great. Hopefully Love/Williams turns into a great rivalry.
One thing I wish you touched on was how McMahon got injured and what it did to affect what he was going to become. The packers were playing the bears, and after the play was called dead, a defender picked McMahon up off the ground and slammed him into the ground completely screwing up his arm. He was never the same afterwards
McMahon was tepid at best. Rest of the team was amazing! Delusional Bear organization has failed to put a real Q.B on the field in decades! Get rid of Mckasky curse and you might beat the Pack. A new stadium won't win you a Super bowl either. Spend some money. My wife is a Bear fan, and it makes me feel guilty to watch them constantly suck. Is this 2024 QB choice gonna save the franchise??

Fun Fact about that 85’ run: those 10 points allowed in the 3 postseason games, 7 points was from a patriots garbage time TD during the Super Bowl blowout. So they REALLY gave up 3 points in those 3 games, insanity.
Luckman was a no doubt Hall of Famer in his time, but it really says a lot that he held Bears team volume passing records until Jay Cutler. A team with more stability and success at the position would’ve probably seen those records fall a couple decades sooner than they did.
I think it's more of a team philosphy thing other than talent. THey overcommitted for a hundred years to running the ball and stopping others from doing so. They played 1920's football.
@@melenzoferrer4786They ran the ball a ton no doubt. But if they had a quarterback good enough to stick around as a starter for 15+ years, the Bears might’ve seen Luckman’s marks beaten sooner still. But as for 4,000 yards and 30 touchdowns, those not being passed for by a Bears quarterback is more philosophy.
Surprised you skipped over 2013, that was definently the bears best year for qb play. It was split between Cutler and McCown but the bears finished 7th is passing yards and 2nd in points.
They also had Brandon Marshall, Matt Forte, and was Alshon Jeffrey there at that point I believe? Good offense on their part; and 2013 would’ve been second to the 13 Broncos.
I remember that year when they only finished behind that historic 2013 Broncos in total offense. I think Cutler could’ve gotten 4000 that year had he played every game. Too bad they missed the playoffs because of that Swiss cheese defense and Chris Conte blowing the coverage on the last game.

He overachieved given his eyesight handicap, noone can take that away from him 😎
Nah, Jay Cutler holds all the Bears passing records. Cutler gets a bad rap considering how terrible the rest of the offense was. And that fool Mike Martz trading away Greg Olson because his offensive philosophy only used the TE for blocking
Lol, fk the Bears. Bears fans do themselves dirty by being fans of a franchise that's been worse than the Lions over the past decade and is on track to match the Millen era in futility. Wearing paper bags over their heads and protesting in the street is what they should be doing, not claiming they're about to win the Super Bowl. But the average Bears fan has an IQ of a trout on their best day.
That 2011 NFC Championship game was the darkest moment in Bears history. Everything that happened and who the opponent was, the Green Bay Packers, that went on to win the Super Bowl.
Add to it… 1) they had a chance to knock GB out in Week 17 2) despite a surgical Rodgers drive to open the game and what I thought was gonna be a blowout the difference was a Caleb Hanie pick 6 to BJ Raji 🤦♂️
@@CZsWorld yea that definitely sucked as it would’ve been Brandon Marshall’s only career playoff appearance, however, pales in comparison to what is the 1 in Aaron Rodgers 1-4 record in the NFC Championship game and happening at Soldier Field 😡
You really should've talked about the cheap hit on McMahon during that 1986 Season that derailed his career, also led to the first modern day ejection in the NFL. Charles Martin, the defensive player who targeted McMahon had a hitlist on his towel. Other then that, great video as always.
16:39 Retiring due to injuries is a nice way to put it. Johnny Knox got folded in half in one of the most horrific football injuries some have ever seen. The back of his helmet touched his ass.
Lol I was front row for that week 18 game in Lambeau. Brought 2 of my Bears fan friends. Watching them come to the realization that Jordan Love is their new boogeyman brought immense joy to my soul.
My dad and I, both Packers fans, were in a group chat with my uncle and cousins all Bears fans during that game. It was hilarious watching them realize the Packers had done it again
@@EdBate I think its more funny how many people have so much hate for the Bears all of a sudden because they are bad. Even when they were at their lowest, I never called Lions fans delusional when they prayed for their first playoff win. I didn't run my mouth as a bears fan in comment sections for Browns, Saints, Jags, or Texans videos, laughing at their fanbases when they struggled to win games. You newer NFL fans who spend more time commenting on opposing teams videos is whats historical to me. Go back and support your own team ya leech.
Ill never defend that scrub. Cutler was the interception KING. I hated having him here. He reminds me of Ben Simmons or Chase Claypool. All the talent in the world to be on of the best in the game, but he chose mediocrity.
I thought he got a raw deal in Chicago, because he suffered through having such bad O-lines for years. In 2010, the Giants sacked him nine times in the first half, and he suffered a concussion. The leading rusher was Matt Forte with 22 yards (2.2 ypg). If Mahomes had an O-line like that, everyone would think he's a bum. Cutler never had a chance, and by the time Chicago had a not-terrible O-line, he was pretty beat up from years of being battered. Cutler was one of the toughest QBs in the league, and it's a miracle he put up such good numbers on an offense that had no good receivers other than Gregg Olsen, a mediocre running back, and a pathetic O-line.
The funny thing about the 85 Bears is that even though the defense is what allowed them to dominate, the offensive guys were the ones getting the big money endorsements. When ESPN did their 30 for 30 on the team, they mentioned the 85 Bears were such a commercial bonanza at the time that pretty much everyone was able to get a piece but the national stuff was mostly going to McMahon, Walter and the Fridge.
You were incredibly kind to Grossman by not going into more depth about the turnover machine that he was, and you also didn't talk enough about Kyle Orton who played virtually all of 2015 because Grossman was hurt but then came back to play in the playoffs.
the Chicago Bears are the only major Chicago sports team that hasn't won a championship in my lifetime and it's the team I care about the most. I saw the cubs win before the Bears did.. I never thought that was possible. Almost nothing but pain. I thought Fields would have worked out better if he had a better coaching staff around him. I hope Williams is everything the media thinks he is..
i think drafting fields was a desperation move by a coach and GM that were about to be fired. and then the team around him was awful, until his third year
@@drunkenmmamaster419 Unlike decades past, the current GM realizes that TODAY's NFL is a passing league. The team took this offseason to focus on the offense for the 1st time in 40 years. That is fans think Williams will be better. At some point, this team will stop being the butt of everyone's jokes
@@drunkenmmamaster419 supposedly Fields was an asshole who refused to be coached. There’s an article that goes in depth about how when Foles and Dalton were on the team, Fields was never with them. At one point, Foles was trying to teach Fields something, and when he turned to face him, Foles noticed Fields wasn’t paying an ounce of attention. He just couldn’t read a defense at all
I don't blame Cutler if he reacted to that online bullying by choosing to do the bare minimum for his salary. But one thing for sure...if Caleb Williams is also a bust or even just merely average, it'll prove the Bears are cursed and probably should just fold the franchise.
To think: the Beats actually had 4 HOF QB's at one time. In training camp in 1949, they had veterans Sid Luckman and Bobby Layne, as well as rookies George Blanda and Johnny Lujack. They haven't had a Hall of Fame QB since
To this day, I will never understand trading up one pick just to draft Trubisky. Idk if San Fran was scaring them with the thought of someone else moving up or what, but I don't think Mitch was even rated that highly.
Pace is a bit of a smooth brain. All that draft capital for a qb 2 teams who needed one said no thanks to he invested 2/3rds of the cap towards the defense. The kind of way a smooth brain would build around a young quarterback
This same Ryan Pace is in the front office in Atlanta now as “senior personnel executive”… draft Turner or Verse to help out the D? Draft Odunze for another weapon for Cousins? Draft Fashanu to further protect Cousins and help Bijan break for more big runs? Nope. Let’s draft an injury prone, immobile, LH QB who was expected to go late 1st round or later… 😂
4,000 yards is a modern thing. When Joe Namath did 4007 yards in 1967 no other AFL QB was within 500 yards. But I get your point about the brutal Bears QB history.
I enjoyed the video. However, should have included how the Bears traded #11 (Shawn Springs), for Rick Mirer, only for him to go 0-3 as a starter and not throw any TD's and be cut within a year
That move, for me, might have been when they reached peak incompetence (which is notable for an organization so consistently historically dysfunctional).
Peak incompetence! To be fair, I liked Mirer, but Springs was objectively and demonstrably a better player. Mirer was not garbage! He was just not evaluated correctly.
My whole Dad's side of the family are Bears fans. My dad used to tell us kids that one of the last things Grandma ever said to him before she died was "WE were talking about the bears losing in 1990 playoffs, how she hated Harbaugh, and they should of never traded away Jim McMahon".
Our only glory days were long before I was born. My best memories with this team were a Super Bowl run when I was 5 and two seasons of high that ended in heartbreaking fashions. My football sanity is running out. Either we can get some glory from this quarterback potter’s field, or I’ll die before I ever see a Super Bowl. Also you’re a bastard for that ending, lol
How about being 2 in ‘86 and basically too young to remember the only sustained success this team had from ‘84-‘88 😭 But at least I was old enough to understand, appreciate and be disappointed by playoff seasons in ‘01, ‘05, ‘06, ‘10, ‘18 and ‘20 😂
I became a Bears fan in 1986. My first memory of a football game I watched on T.V. is Jim McMahon being injured on a cheap shot play. I still hate Mike Ditka. (Not personally, but he was an awful coach who loved to call running plays on 3rd and long, among other things).
Let's see, their all-time leading passer is Jay Cutler, their only Pro Bowl QBs are Billy Wade, Jim McMahon, and Mitchell Trubisky, and their only HOFers are Sid Luckman and George Blanda (the latter of whom they gave up on only to see him thrive in the AFL)? That's not good.
I cannot think about the 1985 Bears without thinking about former Carolina and Washington HC Ron Rivera, who was a LB on that team. There were so many future coaches, Hall of Famers, and All-Pros on that team-and it was mostly the defense.
The being overweight was not what led to McMahon being hurt in the 86 season. Packers defensive end Charles Martin, legit body slammed McMahon out of nowhere after the ball was LOOONG out of his hand, which caused Jim McMahon to tear his rotator cuff and miss the rest of the season and playoffs.
yeah, it was during an interception return, and it wasn't just a rough block, Martin literally picked McMahon up and threw him to the ground, a full-blown body slam. Martin was a barbarian. He kept a towel on his pants with jersey numbers written on it, listing the Bears players he wanted to hurt, and of course #9 was at the top. That was the Packer Way under Forrest Gregg, long before Bountygate with the Saints. Martin should have been banned from football for that.
It would be nice to see him turn it around for them, but idk if he’s the one. I’m gonna be honest, I think Drake Maye is the qb they should’ve taken, but I’m not an nfl stats analyst whose whole job is to figure this out. So my input is just the opinion of some fan. That being said, I think they should’ve went Drake Maye.
That intro hit hard way too much KTO I just hit 29 and not looking forward to being 30🤣 bears and browns the only teams that can come close to the jets for QB dysfunction
@deancreambetweens no I'm not, never I felt sorry for tye lions when the sucked a$$ Now that they a really good for a change their true colors show Jerks
As a Bears fan, first I'd first like to say fuck you. Second, you have no idea how much it hurt to see us never being able to find a QB while you guys had Favre. Then after he started getting old, I though we'd be rid of him. But then you guys had to go and get an even better QB in Rodgers. Shit hurts, man.
See, this is the thing with Chicago. When I think of the Bears, I don't think great quarterback play. I think of their defense and Walter Payton. If the Bears had someone like Joe Montana, John Elway, or even Dan Marino, they probably would've been considered the best dynasty in football during the 80's. But the Bears always have this reputation of not being a quarterback marketed franchise despite having capable guys. The Bears aren't alone in this as you can say Pittsburgh and Baltimore are both known for their defense even if the quarterback play is there at times. I think Caleb Williams will have a good career in Chicago as long as they utilize and build around him in his rookie contract.
Bobby Douglass was the most exciting quarterback I have ever seen. He could throw a football through a brick wall. And you never knew what he was going to do next. This is an excellent video describing the history of the Chicago Bears quarterback position. My best friend is a Bears fan, and I immediately shared it with him. I think he will enjoy it too. Even the painful parts. Which are many.
I think most people and Greenbay fans in particular dont appreciate just the amount of luck they got with Favre. People either dont know or forget that the packers werent good in the 70s and 80s and that all changed with Favre. To have a rock at the qb position that brought stability to the franchise was very fortunate, so much so that it allowed them to prepare the passing of the torch instead of just throwing a rookie to the wolves. I fully believe all of Greenbay's success of the last 30 years rests on the shoulders of Favre, without him the packers could have a similar video.
Didn't even put in that they traded a first round pick (!) in 1997 for Seahawks draft bust Rick Mirer (!!) who had a 0:6 TD:INT (!!!) ratio in 7 games before getting benched
Jordan Love: the Fix = Priceless! 10 more years! The Bears will have to be dealing with Jordan Love and the Green Bay hierarchy for at least ANOTHER TEN YEARS!
I’ve only been a Bears fan since that 2018 season. I feel the pain my family has been through. I can only hope for 1 thing, and that it’s finally time for Da Bears to win.
As a Steelers fan, this is why I’m so thankful for Terry Bradshaw and Ben Roethlisberger because if you looked at all the quarterbacks in between those two, they were awful so I’m glad that we had two Hall of Famer‘s
It's the Bears they will find a way to mess it up. Yes this is the first time they finally did something for the QB they brought in but even then it's the Bears they will find a way to mess it up. I hope for you Bears fan maybe they finally figured it out but it is sad when the last good QB y'all had was Jay and he wasn't even one you drafted. But we will see.
@@TheTexasCowboy56Bears don’t ruin quarterbacks, they draft bad ones. Caleb Williams would go #1 on all 32 teams if they needed a quarterback and isn’t remotely similar to Justin Fields and Mitch Trubisky
@@trevormay101 Exactly. Apples and oranges. People who think Caleb Williams and Cade McNown are one in the same are clueless morons. Huge difference between a QB3 and a unanimous 1 gifted to you by another team.
Here's what we needed ....don't trade Greg Olsen. Don't fire Smith right after a 10 win season. Get a halfway respectable o line to protect Cutler. Jay gets alot of hate but he was clearly the most talented qb chi ever had under center. Hindsight is always 20-20 to be fair
The algorithm put this up for a week, and I assumed it was garbage. Didn't click. Did not expect the concise analysis. The pace was really good. Feel like you are from Chi because your analysis is spot on. Great job!
@mozisgrimm140 didn't take any time out my day I wrote that and this while riding in a car nothing else I could have done anyway try again because u failed
I am from lake county Illinois, I have been a Packers fan since the 1980's. My dad was a Packers fan since the late 1950's. He always said Luckman was the best QB the Bears would ever have so far he was right. He died in 2013. We argue over who was better Starr or Favre.
It’s weird that we give the Jets a pass on the 4000 yard QB as their only one is Joe Namath in 1967. That is an insane stat, since it was only a 14 game season and offensive passing schemes still barely existed.
The Bears are notorious QB destroyers. I can only wish Caleb luck. Maybe in 3 years the Steelers can give the Bears a 6th round pick again for Caleb...
I agree. If there is one thing thr Bears are really good at doing, it is wrecking quarterbacks. I hope I'm wrong but I suspect Williams will be out of the league in three years. History is on my side on this, and 100% of the burden of proof is on the Bears to prove me wrong.
20:09 “Petulant” means you get all worked up about little things. If Jay Cutler doesn’t care about anything, then how could he be “petulant” at the same time?
I'm a Colts fan. Still rock my Harbaugh jersey and I loved that SB. Especially cause my brother is a Bears fan. I also live in Oklahoma and think Caleb will be your best QB.
13:30 - Technically, Grossman's performance was 'average', but that is the worst description of it possible. In 2006 he had the most games of any quarterback over a passer rating of 100. In 2006 he also had the most games of any quarterback under a passer rating of 40. Technically he averaged out to 'average', but every game he was either the best QB in the league or the worst QB in the league. There was no middle ground.
Moved to Chicago in '63 and instantly became a Bears (Cubs and Hawks) fan. Didn't hurt that they won the NFL championship that year. Aside from McMahon, I never had faith in any of the QBs da Bears have fielded since I became a fan. It's like the curse of the Billy goat thing. Still a fan, though. Cheers....
As a Packers fan this video just sums up the difference in both franchises…man I can’t wait for Caleb Williams to only start for three seasons before being traded away and being picked off about 20 times in the six games he plays against the packers
I would not have a problem wagering that you will be right. Given the track record of this franchise, I expect Williams to be out of the NFL within 3 years. Oh well. At least I still have 1985. No one can take that away from me.

Nah, Jay Cutler holds all the Bears passing records. Cutler gets a bad rap considering how terrible the rest of the offense was. And that fool Mike Martz trading away Greg Olson because his offensive philosophy only used the TE for blocking
You did Bears fans dirty with that last clip…
It was actually 👨🍳💋
Lol, fk the Bears. Bears fans do themselves dirty by being fans of a franchise that's been worse than the Lions over the past decade and is on track to match the Millen era in futility. Wearing paper bags over their heads and protesting in the street is what they should be doing, not claiming they're about to win the Super Bowl. But the average Bears fan has an IQ of a trout on their best day.
Finishing off a video about the bears qb struggles with a clip of love dunking on us is FUCKING RUDE
I loved it, GO PACK GO!!!
That 2011 NFC Championship game was the darkest moment in Bears history. Everything that happened and who the opponent was, the Green Bay Packers, that went on to win the Super Bowl.
I was 13 and cried 🤣🤣
Add to it…
1) they had a chance to knock GB out in Week 17
2) despite a surgical Rodgers drive to open the game and what I thought was gonna be a blowout the difference was a Caleb Hanie pick 6 to BJ Raji 🤦♂️
Still remember Chris Conte blowing his coverage....
@@CZsWorld that was the 2013 final game of the year,,, also YOUR A BEARS FAN? I love your videos!!
@@CZsWorld yea that definitely sucked as it would’ve been Brandon Marshall’s only career playoff appearance, however, pales in comparison to what is the 1 in Aaron Rodgers 1-4 record in the NFC Championship game and happening at Soldier Field 😡
You really should've talked about the cheap hit on McMahon during that 1986 Season that derailed his career, also led to the first modern day ejection in the NFL. Charles Martin, the defensive player who targeted McMahon had a hitlist on his towel.
Other then that, great video as always.
Even Packers fans admit the play was disgraceful
16:39 Retiring due to injuries is a nice way to put it. Johnny Knox got folded in half in one of the most horrific football injuries some have ever seen. The back of his helmet touched his ass.
Lol I was front row for that week 18 game in Lambeau. Brought 2 of my Bears fan friends. Watching them come to the realization that Jordan Love is their new boogeyman brought immense joy to my soul.
My dad and I, both Packers fans, were in a group chat with my uncle and cousins all Bears fans during that game. It was hilarious watching them realize the Packers had done it again
Oh KTO you’re a mean one for that outro… I LOVE IT 🔥🤌🏼
dawg you don’t understand how much jay cutler meant to me as a kid i hate the way his career is tainted off how people perceived him
man its so funny seeing the level of cope bears fans have for cutler.
@@EdBate I think its more funny how many people have so much hate for the Bears all of a sudden because they are bad. Even when they were at their lowest, I never called Lions fans delusional when they prayed for their first playoff win. I didn't run my mouth as a bears fan in comment sections for Browns, Saints, Jags, or Texans videos, laughing at their fanbases when they struggled to win games. You newer NFL fans who spend more time commenting on opposing teams videos is whats historical to me. Go back and support your own team ya leech.
Hey! 8 years as a Bear! That is something. All the others walked in, walked out after 2 seasons.
Ill never defend that scrub. Cutler was the interception KING. I hated having him here. He reminds me of Ben Simmons or Chase Claypool. All the talent in the world to be on of the best in the game, but he chose mediocrity.
I thought he got a raw deal in Chicago, because he suffered through having such bad O-lines for years. In 2010, the Giants sacked him nine times in the first half, and he suffered a concussion. The leading rusher was Matt Forte with 22 yards (2.2 ypg). If Mahomes had an O-line like that, everyone would think he's a bum.
Cutler never had a chance, and by the time Chicago had a not-terrible O-line, he was pretty beat up from years of being battered.
Cutler was one of the toughest QBs in the league, and it's a miracle he put up such good numbers on an offense that had no good receivers other than Gregg Olsen, a mediocre running back, and a pathetic O-line.
The funny thing about the 85 Bears is that even though the defense is what allowed them to dominate, the offensive guys were the ones getting the big money endorsements. When ESPN did their 30 for 30 on the team, they mentioned the 85 Bears were such a commercial bonanza at the time that pretty much everyone was able to get a piece but the national stuff was mostly going to McMahon, Walter and the Fridge.
Failing to mention that McMahon had his 1986 season cut short bc Charles Martin body slammed him half a light year after he threw the ball is insane
I love your background music choices. You certainly have an ear for the music that accompanies the type of content💯
You were incredibly kind to Grossman by not going into more depth about the turnover machine that he was, and you also didn't talk enough about Kyle Orton who played virtually all of 2015 because Grossman was hurt but then came back to play in the playoffs.
Rex Goatman mentioned 🔥🔥🔥🐐
I once tried to make the worst Madden 07 team possible.
I took Rex Grossman and surrounded him with a bunch of backups.
the Chicago Bears are the only major Chicago sports team that hasn't won a championship in my lifetime and it's the team I care about the most. I saw the cubs win before the Bears did.. I never thought that was possible. Almost nothing but pain. I thought Fields would have worked out better if he had a better coaching staff around him. I hope Williams is everything the media thinks he is..
i think drafting fields was a desperation move by a coach and GM that were about to be fired. and then the team around him was awful, until his third year
The Bears did Fields dirty couldn’t even help the dude out with players around him on offense, idk why they think Williams is gonna do any better 😂
@@drunkenmmamaster419 Unlike decades past, the current GM realizes that TODAY's NFL is a passing league. The team took this offseason to focus on the offense for the 1st time in 40 years. That is fans think Williams will be better. At some point, this team will stop being the butt of everyone's jokes
@@drunkenmmamaster419 supposedly Fields was an asshole who refused to be coached. There’s an article that goes in depth about how when Foles and Dalton were on the team, Fields was never with them. At one point, Foles was trying to teach Fields something, and when he turned to face him, Foles noticed Fields wasn’t paying an ounce of attention. He just couldn’t read a defense at all
True I seen the bulls CUBS white Sox win championships but not yet the bears
I don't blame Cutler if he reacted to that online bullying by choosing to do the bare minimum for his salary.
But one thing for sure...if Caleb Williams is also a bust or even just merely average, it'll prove the Bears are cursed and probably should just fold the franchise.
"Contract the Damn Franchise!" -UrinatingTree
To think: the Beats actually had 4 HOF QB's at one time. In training camp in 1949, they had veterans Sid Luckman and Bobby Layne, as well as rookies George Blanda and Johnny Lujack. They haven't had a Hall of Fame QB since
Bro should High key should talk about Denver’s absolute despair since 2015
To this day, I will never understand trading up one pick just to draft Trubisky. Idk if San Fran was scaring them with the thought of someone else moving up or what, but I don't think Mitch was even rated that highly.
Ryan pace thought San Francisco wanted to take him
Pace is a bit of a smooth brain. All that draft capital for a qb 2 teams who needed one said no thanks to he invested 2/3rds of the cap towards the defense. The kind of way a smooth brain would build around a young quarterback
@@chicagodude8888 Mitchell Trubisky is that guy and if you believe that way you need to have conviction to go get him
This same Ryan Pace is in the front office in Atlanta now as “senior personnel executive”… draft Turner or Verse to help out the D? Draft Odunze for another weapon for Cousins? Draft Fashanu to further protect Cousins and help Bijan break for more big runs? Nope. Let’s draft an injury prone, immobile, LH QB who was expected to go late 1st round or later… 😂
@@NotMeNaNaNa your got it!
KTO really channeled his inner jon bois with the ending map graphic with jazz
4,000 yards is a modern thing. When Joe Namath did 4007 yards in 1967 no other AFL QB was within 500 yards. But I get your point about the brutal Bears QB history.
The absolute disrespect to end this on a Jordan Love highlight 😂
I enjoyed the video. However, should have included how the Bears traded #11 (Shawn Springs), for Rick Mirer, only for him to go 0-3 as a starter and not throw any TD's and be cut within a year
That move, for me, might have been when they reached peak incompetence (which is notable for an organization so consistently historically dysfunctional).
Why they thought Mirer would become anything of note after seeing him play for three seasons is beyond me
Peak incompetence! To be fair, I liked Mirer, but Springs was objectively and demonstrably a better player.
Mirer was not garbage! He was just not evaluated correctly.
My whole Dad's side of the family are Bears fans. My dad used to tell us kids that one of the last things Grandma ever said to him before she died was "WE were talking about the bears losing in 1990 playoffs, how she hated Harbaugh, and they should of never traded away Jim McMahon".
It was only a certian amount of time before this came out 😭
All I could think of was the Spanish announcer saying No Señor when Parkey missed that kick. 😭😭😭😭😭
Our only glory days were long before I was born. My best memories with this team were a Super Bowl run when I was 5 and two seasons of high that ended in heartbreaking fashions. My football sanity is running out. Either we can get some glory from this quarterback potter’s field, or I’ll die before I ever see a Super Bowl.
Also you’re a bastard for that ending, lol
The nfl is rigged the bears aren't winning because the nfl doesn't want them too
How about being 2 in ‘86 and basically too young to remember the only sustained success this team had from ‘84-‘88 😭
But at least I was old enough to understand, appreciate and be disappointed by playoff seasons in ‘01, ‘05, ‘06, ‘10, ‘18 and ‘20 😂
I became a Bears fan in 1986. My first memory of a football game I watched on T.V. is Jim McMahon being injured on a cheap shot play.
I still hate Mike Ditka. (Not personally, but he was an awful coach who loved to call running plays on 3rd and long, among other things).
As a Packers fan, that ending was just the cherry on top of a great video!
Let's see, their all-time leading passer is Jay Cutler, their only Pro Bowl QBs are Billy Wade, Jim McMahon, and Mitchell Trubisky, and their only HOFers are Sid Luckman and George Blanda (the latter of whom they gave up on only to see him thrive in the AFL)? That's not good.
I cannot think about the 1985 Bears without thinking about former Carolina and Washington HC Ron Rivera, who was a LB on that team. There were so many future coaches, Hall of Famers, and All-Pros on that team-and it was mostly the defense.
Also shoutout to Lovie Smith. He was a great, underrated coach.
Some teams have some solid future coaches come out of them, and the 85 Bears is one such team.
The being overweight was not what led to McMahon being hurt in the 86 season. Packers defensive end Charles Martin, legit body slammed McMahon out of nowhere after the ball was LOOONG out of his hand, which caused Jim McMahon to tear his rotator cuff and miss the rest of the season and playoffs.
I think the channel wanted to protect Charles Martin for some reason.
yeah, it was during an interception return, and it wasn't just a rough block, Martin literally picked McMahon up and threw him to the ground, a full-blown body slam. Martin was a barbarian. He kept a towel on his pants with jersey numbers written on it, listing the Bears players he wanted to hurt, and of course #9 was at the top. That was the Packer Way under Forrest Gregg, long before Bountygate with the Saints. Martin should have been banned from football for that.
That ending showing off Jordan Love popping off on the Bears is brutal.
Do it again.
As a lifelong Bears fan, I’m hoping Caleb breaks the curse.
It would be nice to see him turn it around for them, but idk if he’s the one. I’m gonna be honest, I think Drake Maye is the qb they should’ve taken, but I’m not an nfl stats analyst whose whole job is to figure this out. So my input is just the opinion of some fan. That being said, I think they should’ve went Drake Maye.
As a Packer fan, I hope he breaks the curse. Packers v Bears isn't hardly worth watching these days unless I want to watch a blowout.
As a fan of the team, I wish Caleb the best, however a guy feeling side tells me that so called "curse" will continue.
That intro hit hard way too much KTO I just hit 29 and not looking forward to being 30🤣 bears and browns the only teams that can come close to the jets for QB dysfunction
Bears are worse bro
As a Packers fan, that ending was uncalled for 💀
Even Packer fans are feeling sorry for the Bears these days lol
@deancreambetweens no I'm not, never I felt sorry for tye lions when the sucked a$$
Now that they a really good for a change their true colors show
Jerks
@@ChicagoSportsHater as a Bears fan, that actually hurts more than them hating us lol.
watching this as a packers fan with so much joy in my heart
Go Pack Go!
As a Bears fan, first I'd first like to say fuck you. Second, you have no idea how much it hurt to see us never being able to find a QB while you guys had Favre. Then after he started getting old, I though we'd be rid of him. But then you guys had to go and get an even better QB in Rodgers. Shit hurts, man.
See, this is the thing with Chicago. When I think of the Bears, I don't think great quarterback play. I think of their defense and Walter Payton. If the Bears had someone like Joe Montana, John Elway, or even Dan Marino, they probably would've been considered the best dynasty in football during the 80's. But the Bears always have this reputation of not being a quarterback marketed franchise despite having capable guys. The Bears aren't alone in this as you can say Pittsburgh and Baltimore are both known for their defense even if the quarterback play is there at times. I think Caleb Williams will have a good career in Chicago as long as they utilize and build around him in his rookie contract.
As a Packers fan, I couldn't have clicked on this video fast enough.
Bart Starr is all I'm saying....
Vikings fan, i feel the same way.
Bobby Douglass was the most exciting quarterback I have ever seen. He could throw a football through a brick wall. And you never knew what he was going to do next.
This is an excellent video describing the history of the Chicago Bears quarterback position. My best friend is a Bears fan, and I immediately shared it with him. I think he will enjoy it too. Even the painful parts. Which are many.
Yes! KTO is doing a video on my team! Oh...
if Caleb Williams does not pass for 4000 yards, then we truly cannot be saved
Say what you want about the Bears QB......JM was the QB for the best NFL team ever..85 BEARS 🐻....yes im still living in the 80's
I think most people and Greenbay fans in particular dont appreciate just the amount of luck they got with Favre. People either dont know or forget that the packers werent good in the 70s and 80s and that all changed with Favre. To have a rock at the qb position that brought stability to the franchise was very fortunate, so much so that it allowed them to prepare the passing of the torch instead of just throwing a rookie to the wolves. I fully believe all of Greenbay's success of the last 30 years rests on the shoulders of Favre, without him the packers could have a similar video.
Didn't even put in that they traded a first round pick (!) in 1997 for Seahawks draft bust Rick Mirer (!!) who had a 0:6 TD:INT (!!!) ratio in 7 games before getting benched
I love the SB type of vibe you threw in the last few minutes. Any Bears fan can appreciate the time you put in showing J Love there. 😆🫡
Jay cutler doesn’t show emotion: he doesn’t care
Eli Manning doesn’t show emotion: he’s focused level headed
The difference? 2 Super Bowl MVPs.
Jordan Love: the Fix = Priceless!
10 more years! The Bears will have to be dealing with Jordan Love and the Green Bay hierarchy for at least ANOTHER TEN YEARS!
Anytime a new KTO video drops, I drop everything Im doing to watch. KTO THE GOAT 🐐
As a Packer fan, I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thank you KTO! GO PACK GO BABY!!! 😂
I’ve only been a Bears fan since that 2018 season. I feel the pain my family has been through. I can only hope for 1 thing, and that it’s finally time for Da Bears to win.
As a Steelers fan, this is why I’m so thankful for Terry Bradshaw and Ben Roethlisberger because if you looked at all the quarterbacks in between those two, they were awful so I’m glad that we had two Hall of Famer‘s
and now we’re on the carousel. caleb williams is ours in 4 years.
The best one in between those two is arguably Kordell Stewart, the best one before is arguably Bobby Layne’s years after Detroit.
@@UserName-ts3sp well, we were stupid enough to get rid of Kenny Pickett
Fun fact, the Steelers and bears back in 1970 tied for the same record decided who’d pick 1st overall with a coin flip
@@MustacheDLuffy Which ended up becoming Terry Bradshaw
Knox - "retired due to injuries" let me fix that for you, Knox - "retired due to being bent in half backwards"
This year is the first time in years I’ve been truly excited and optimistic for this team. Caleb is gonna be the guy to break the trend🔥🔥🔥
It's the Bears they will find a way to mess it up. Yes this is the first time they finally did something for the QB they brought in but even then it's the Bears they will find a way to mess it up. I hope for you Bears fan maybe they finally figured it out but it is sad when the last good QB y'all had was Jay and he wasn't even one you drafted. But we will see.
@@TheTexasCowboy56Bears don’t ruin quarterbacks, they draft bad ones. Caleb Williams would go #1 on all 32 teams if they needed a quarterback and isn’t remotely similar to Justin Fields and Mitch Trubisky
Yeah, and how long have the wider bears fanbase been saying this exact thing. Same old bears with another scapegoat of the future.
@@chicagodude8888 not to mention probably the greatest situation a rookie QB has been in if not the best in a long time
@@trevormay101 Exactly. Apples and oranges. People who think Caleb Williams and Cade McNown are one in the same are clueless morons. Huge difference between a QB3 and a unanimous 1 gifted to you by another team.
Thank you for making this video
Hester had 6 return TDs his rookie season. 4 PR, 1 KR, and one missed FG return
That's nuts considering that most people don't get that many in their entire career
I've been a Bears fan since I started watching NFL games in Kindergarten. Man, the last 20+ years have been a roller-coaster. 😅
Here's what we needed ....don't trade Greg Olsen. Don't fire Smith right after a 10 win season. Get a halfway respectable o line to protect Cutler. Jay gets alot of hate but he was clearly the most talented qb chi ever had under center. Hindsight is always 20-20 to be fair
The algorithm put this up for a week, and I assumed it was garbage. Didn't click. Did not expect the concise analysis. The pace was really good. Feel like you are from Chi because your analysis is spot on. Great job!
Nothing makes me happier than being a Dolphins fan and bringing up who beat the Bears in 85 to Bears fans. It legitimately warms my soul.

@@UNoWhoitis23 I'd imagine about as good as having your entire teams legacy be the defense they played for one season
I am from lake county Illinois, I have been a Packers fan since the 1980's. My dad was a Packers fan since the late 1950's. He always said Luckman was the best QB the Bears would ever have so far he was right. He died in 2013. We argue over who was better Starr or Favre.
Bears get clowned for 'starting Grossman in the Super Bowl' but it's not like they had many better options
It’s weird that we give the Jets a pass on the 4000 yard QB as their only one is Joe Namath in 1967. That is an insane stat, since it was only a 14 game season and offensive passing schemes still barely existed.
The Bears are notorious QB destroyers. I can only wish Caleb luck. Maybe in 3 years the Steelers can give the Bears a 6th round pick again for Caleb...
Naw Caleb will be fine by that point while Justin will be out of the league
I agree. If there is one thing thr Bears are really good at doing, it is wrecking quarterbacks. I hope I'm wrong but I suspect Williams will be out of the league in three years.
History is on my side on this, and 100% of the burden of proof is on the Bears to prove me wrong.
Your entertainment is our yearly torture. Welcome to Chicago.
This is because Chicago is the only franchise to trade away their only Super Bowl winning quarterback under the age of 30. Jim McMahon.
You done started some ish with that ending 😂😂😂😂 GO PACKERS!!!!!!!

Great seeing John Clayton in this. Him, Dan Patrick, and Stuart Scott were my childhood.

KTO gets a flag on the play for the final highlight of this video. "Personal Foul. Roughing the Viewer. 15 yard penalty. Repeat 3rd down."
20:09 “Petulant” means you get all worked up about little things. If Jay Cutler doesn’t care about anything, then how could he be “petulant” at the same time?
Petulant means childish or bad tempered
As a packers fan this is my favorite video you’ve made 😂
Packers cheap shot on Jim McMahon is the reason why we didn’t win the Super Bowl in 1986
I'm a Colts fan. Still rock my Harbaugh jersey and I loved that SB. Especially cause my brother is a Bears fan. I also live in Oklahoma and think Caleb will be your best QB.
13:30 - Technically, Grossman's performance was 'average', but that is the worst description of it possible. In 2006 he had the most games of any quarterback over a passer rating of 100. In 2006 he also had the most games of any quarterback under a passer rating of 40. Technically he averaged out to 'average', but every game he was either the best QB in the league or the worst QB in the league. There was no middle ground.
I’ve seen people describe the 06 Bears as the duality of “Good Rex-Bad Rex”
Moved to Chicago in '63 and instantly became a Bears (Cubs and Hawks) fan. Didn't hurt that they won the NFL championship that year. Aside from McMahon, I never had faith in any of the QBs da Bears have fielded since I became a fan. It's like the curse of the Billy goat thing. Still a fan, though. Cheers....
As a Packers fan this video just sums up the difference in both franchises…man I can’t wait for Caleb Williams to only start for three seasons before being traded away and being picked off about 20 times in the six games he plays against the packers
Future Steelers Quarterback Justin Fields
I would not have a problem wagering that you will be right. Given the track record of this franchise, I expect Williams to be out of the NFL within 3 years.
Oh well. At least I still have 1985. No one can take that away from me.
this video was so well put together, loved it.
Jordan Love versus Caleb Williams will be one of best rivalries of all time
I knew this was gonna be covered eventually. Life as a bears fan is pain.
