Chicago Bears: Unconventional NFC North quarterback rankings
By Ryan Heckman
No. 1: Mitchell Trubisky, Chicago Bears
Individual Rankings:
Age: 1st (24 years old)
Career Accomplishments: 3rd (1x Pro Bowl, 1x NFC Offensive Player of the Week)
2018 QBR: 1st (73.0)
Contract: 1st (Rookie Deal)
Beer Chugging: 2nd
Beard Appeal: 1st (That’s a handsome man)
Based on my criteria alone, this was too easy. Trubisky is the youngest by at least six years, giving him another decade-plus of football left in him. Even as a third-year quarterback, the career accomplishments look to be on the rise, especially when he has such a dominant defense behind him — that’s an invaluable confidence boost.
Trubisky is a true leader, a fun teammate to have (see his beer chug, which is a thing of beauty) and still on his rookie contract. Now, that rookie deal will soon turn into an expensive extension. But, for now, the cheap deal looks nice.
Go out and hand any woman a photo of bearded Trubisky. Place it up against the other three. No sane woman would pick anyone other than Trubisky. I have no shame in saying that he’s a good-looking dude — be honest with yourself.
All jokes aside, these were fun rankings to do. I probably ruffled some feathers, and so be it. The Bears are atop the NFC North and Trubisky is ascending. Deal with it.
