Former Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky has a new NFL home

The Chicago Bears are a bad organization. They don’t do a good job developing quarterbacks at all and Mitchell Trubisky is their latest failure. They are hoping that Justin Fields sees much better results but nobody should count on that at this point.

The Bears cut their ties with Mitch after the 2020 season ended. He had made the playoffs in two of his final three seasons but there clearly wasn’t enough developing going on. The offense was stuck but we quickly learned that it might have not been his fault.

Matt Nagy was a horrible play-caller who played into Mitch’s struggles. He moved on to the Buffalo Bills where he was a very good backup for Josh Allen. He showed at times that he deserves a chance to be an NFL starter again, or at least a chance to compete for the job.

He signed a deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday where he is going to have a chance at being the starter for a very good team. They have a Super Bowl-caliber roster but they weren’t able to reach their ceiling because of an aging Ben Roethlisberger.

The Chicago Bears are going to watch Mitch Trubisky start for another team.

Now, Mitch will have a chance to advance his skills with a much better organization. Coach Mike Tomlin will certainly do a better job of getting the most out of Trubisky than Nagy was able to. This Steelers team is built to win with a quarterback like him.

Roethlisberger is a Hall of Fame quarterback but he wasn’t good in his final years. Trubisky is a significant upgrade over what they had in Big Ben in 2020 and 2021. He learned a lot in Buffalo and deserves well wishes with Pittsburgh.

The Bears should be ashamed of themselves, to be honest. It is going to be worse if he goes to Pittsburgh and has success. To be honest, he deserves it for all of the stuff he dealt with in Chicago with that former regime that used to run things.

We can also hope that the new people in charge can keep this from happening again. Justin Fields is awesome and has a really high ceiling. Now, we get to enjoy them both starting for prominent franchises in the NFL.
