As we dissect Josh Allen's throws. here's an Interesting read about Trubisky, who now has 14 starts under his belt.. and was taken well ahead of Mahomes.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Mack's athleticism is on par with his power—which makes him nearly impossible to slow down. 

The same can't be said about the Bears offense, since Trubisky's play tends to sputter at times. The unit performed at its best the last two weeks within the structure of predetermined play-calling at the beginning of contests. 

Chicago scored touchdowns on both of its opening drives this year. Trubisky is 10-of-11 passing for 154 yards and two total touchdowns in those instances, according to ESPN Stats & Information

Once Nagy's preplanned approach is complete, last year's second overall pick doesn't appear nearly as comfortable in his role, even though the Bears have done everything in their power to make him so. Nagy and offensive coordinator Mark Helfrich instituted many collegiate concepts to expedite Trubisky's maturation as a starting quarterback. It's helped to a degree, but the second-year signal-caller continues to struggle with decision-making, overall accuracy and pocket awareness. 

Quarterback play starts with footwork. Trubisky has a bad habit of not driving through the football. His poor technique led to the first of two interceptions when he couldn't get enough on a deep sideline attempt and underthrew Allen Robinson. Instead, Shaquill Griffin came down with the pass. Griffin struck again later in the second quarter when he snagged a tipped pass out of the air. 

Improper balance occurs when a quarterback isn't shifting his weight from his back foot onto his plant leg. Trubisky tends to airmail passes when this occurs. 

Also, the quarterback nearly maneuvered his way into a couple sacks and should have thrown a third interception when he bailed from the pocket early despite a lack of pressure. 

Of course, it's a process. The Bears understand this. Trubisky has yet to start a full NFL season. Nagy is encouraged about some of the adjustments his quarterback made from the first week to the second. 

"This is going to be fun," the coach said, per the Chicago Tribune's Rich Campbell. "I'm excited for our future together."

As the Kansas City Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes II tears up the league with 10 touchdown passes through two weeks, some disappointment has to set in, since the Bears chose Trubisky eight picks before Mahomes came off the board. The Bears quarterback has nine touchdown passes through 14 contests.

Some good some bad some ugly

Didnt expect him to set the world on fire his 1st start.

Want to see more throws to foster, mccloud, speed kills we arent using it enuff.

Zay Jones even caught a ball. Slow clap.

Rookie QBs have games like this the world is not ending.

Allen has to get more comfortable on the field still.

You could tell by the passes he missed on when he had time, his decision making, and accuracy werent always there. Our WRs have been hurt or ****ty since 2016,  can we trade for Antonio Brown already and get a real #1WR.
