B-Man Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 You mean the organization where you won a Super Bowl Jim ? As an average QB.
Patrick Duffy Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 That poor guy got jacked up, BAD. He's all messed up now. One tough SOB though, that's for sure. He take those "boom shaka locka" type hits and bounce right back up. 3

Very harsh words from a QB who won a Superbowl with an organization: Quote McMahon was the Bears’ first-round draft pick in 1982, won Super Bowl XX with the 1985 Bears, and stayed in Chicago through the 1988 season. He then had stints with the Chargers, Eagles, Vikings, Cardinals and Browns before going to the Packers, where he won a Super Bowl XXXI ring as Brett Favre’s backup. McMahon said the Bears have always emphasized defense and the running game and have never been able to develop a quarterback. “I think it’s where quarterbacks go to die,” McMahon said. Expand Can you imagine if a former Buffalo QB who took us to the playoffs much less the Superbowl, said that about the Bills? Quote McMahon isn’t much of a fan these days. Asked what the Bears should do in the draft, he said, “I don’t know, don’t watch them, don’t care. I wouldn’t know what they need or who they’re thinking of drafting.” Expand Yikes.
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Wow. I met him once several years back at a charity silent auction here in one of the ATL 'burbs, and he was gladhanding, signing Bears memorabilia and hawking his main contribution of the night, a game worn autographed Bears jersey with nary a negative comment. Guess he kept all this bottled up inside all these years?

Irv Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 He was a jerk when he was in the league. Hasn't changed.
Mr. WEO Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 (edited) oh, that's just the tau depositions talkin!! He meant the best organization he never played (5 pass attempts in 2 years) for. He loved that they paid him for nothing long after he was washed up----and where his career went to die. Edited April 15, 2021 by Mr. WEO
4_kidd_4 Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Oh I was totally just wondering what Jim McMahon thought about everything. Whew! 5
Don Otreply Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Could be the team won that super bowl in spite of the organization being, how did he put it...
BuffaloBill Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 The guy may have CTE, sadly he took some monster hits in his day. Why come out with this now? 1

jethro_tull Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Bears fans and media familiar with that mid 80's era will sympathize and agree with him. The fact that they only won one championship with the talent they had at that time is a telltale sign of how poorly they were run.

DJB Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 (edited) For a second I thought this was Vince McMahon and had no idea that the Packers were part of the XFL. Edited April 15, 2021 by DJB 1
colin Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 i remember watching some sports look back thing and ditka made all the players agree not to do personal endorsement deals, and then iron mike went out and did some himself. he really was a look at me head coach, and his ego had buddy ryan leave and break up what could have been a huge dynasty team. think jimmy mac may have a point here. 2
