Madness and Methods

This must be why the Bears cycle through all those mediocre quarterbacks year after year—at some point, they’re bound to face one, like yesterday. It’s tough to lose to the Jacksonville Jaguars under any circumstances, even more so with ex-Bear Mike Glennon at the helm. So, Munsters 41 Jaguars 17. Too bad that strategy won’t work on Sunday, when the Packers come to town looking to clinch a first-round bye. Khalil Mack and the rest of the defense is going to have to show up; the guys might consider actually putting pressure on Aaron Rodgers, for a change, for once. And Mitch Trubisky might want to stop throwing endzone interceptions. He’s done that twice now in two weeks. Let me suggest a New Year’s resolution, Mitch…. But this is all I could ask for, to have something meaningful to watch on a Sunday afternoon in January. A win for the home team might not qualify as a Christmas miracle, but I’d take it all the same. That would mean another January Sunday with reason to watch a game on TV. Go, Bears.
