Chicago Bears: These quarterbacks have made us who we are
By Sam Fels
He wasn’t Mirer. That’s about all I can say. How many slow, white quarterbacks whose throws couldn’t break wind have we already discussed? Like, 40?

I honestly don’t remember anything about Steve Stenstrom, and I don’t remember anything about Moses Moreno who also played during the same season. This is when Wannstedt was a lame duck, and the Bears as a whole were an afterthought in the league. So why should their quarterbacks be any different?
Moses Moreno sounded like something you’d name your create-a-player, so I guess he was ahead of his time. He was yet another fans clamored for when Stenstrom and whatever other Doofus du Jour were causing the punt unit to become dehydrated. He had a big preseason, and the lingering curse of Will Furrer was still pretty fresh. Maybe fans figured one of these guys would become a miracle. I couldn’t tell you.
The more I think about it, the better it is that I can’t remember any of these games. I’d probably be totally helpless and maybe just blinked out of existence. How did this happen? How did the NFL allow this? Wasn’t there a “best interest of football” clause someone could have cited?
Moses Moreno. You know what’s funny? It’ll get worse than this.
