Chicago Bears: Nick Foles works now but won’t be long term answerJimmy Lynchon September 30, 2020 at 4:00 pm

Nick Foles is a former super bowl champion with the Philadelphia Eagles, and in my opinion, he is an improvement of what we have seen on the field from Mitch Trubisky. For the rest of the season, I am ready to move forward with Nick Foles as the starter, but that does not mean I believe he is the long term answer for this team.

Ryan Pace, and every Bears fan around, would have loved to see Mitch Trubisky work out with the team. However, he was just not good enough to earn the spot, and now we have a 31-year-old quarterback that has had injury issues in the past.

For this season, Nick Foles works for the Bears. Honestly, I am excited to see how he does throughout the year now that the Bears know that he is their guy. Foles has some strengths that Trubisky just does not have, but the Bears also need to start looking further down the line.

In a perfect world, Nick Foles is going to work for the Bears this season, and maybe even next year. Then after that, the Bears will have added the next young quarterback that they think could be their starter for years to come, maybe that player will be Kyle Trask.

If Nick Foles goes out and has a bad game this coming week against the Colts some fans might start calling for Trubisky to get back on the field. However, the ship has sailed. Trubisky is not going to get back out with the Bears, even if he should stay ready to play just in case there is an injury. Nick Foles is the Bears guy moving forward, and I am excited about it.

Hopefully, Nick Foles can help get the Bears back to the playoff this season; all while the team starts looking at adding a next franchise quarterback at the draft.
