In McCown We Trust?

Are you guys starting to see a common theme in my latest posts? That I´ve pretty much been wrong about all my latest predictions? Well, once again I didn´t disappoint with my evaluation of Bear´s backup quarterback Josh McCown. Before the Bear´s Monday Night game in Lambeau against the Green Bay Packers I called Josh McCown a chump, and said only a miracle could lead us to victory. I honestly think Josh McCown read my post about him prior to kickoff because he played like an absolute STUD and carried the Bears to a victory. Now let´s flashback to last Sunday´s Bears vs Lions game. Starting quarterback Jay Cutler struggles the entire second half and Coach Trestman throws in McCown, down 8, with one drive to tie the game up. McCown proceeds to lead the Bears down the field for a touchdown with seconds remaining. Trestman of course calls the two worst play calls on both attempts of the 2-point conversion and the Bears lose a heart-breaker. Yet again McCown showed the fans and the coaching staff that he deserves to be the starting quarterback until Jay Cutler is actually 100% healthy. So until that day comes I´m hopping on the Josh McCown bandwagon. The guy plays with fire and you can tell it inspires the rest of the team. If you haven´t given the man a chance yet, try giving him a shot, he just might surprise you.

Josh McCown - a goon, but he´s our goon

MNF Preview: Bears at Packers

Keep your expectations low for tonight’s game Bear’s fans. Normally I’m the type of person who looks at the glass half empty, but tonight I think that mindset is warranted. The injury plagued Bears roll into Lambeau Field led by backup quarterback Josh McCown. Even though McCown played well against the Redskins two weeks ago, lets not write him off as a capable backup. To be honest McCown is a complete chump, and in my opinion he is one of the worst backup quarterbacks in the league. Every time I close my eyes and think about tonight’s game I envision Clay Matthews coming off the edge unblocked and dislodging the ball and McCown’s head from his body. Don’t get me wrong I’m going to be cheering my Bears and McCown on all night, I’m just very skeptical that he can pull off a road win in Lambeau. If the Bears are going to pull off the upset tonight the defense needs to finally step up. Middle linebacker Jonathan Bostic will be the leader for the Bear’s defense tonight and the safeties need to play much better if we’re going to slow Aaron Rodgers down. Maybe we can pray for a couple return touchdowns from Hester tonight because we’re going to need a miracle in order to pull a win out tonight. With that being said, miracles do happen, and let’s go Bears!!
