Great choice, we did well last week against the Falcons, but were atrocious this time out vs Tampa Bay.
I'd like to see Trubisky starting games over Glennon midway this season.
I've done a bit of reading about the team but I'm still some way short of knowing who those players you mentioned are
I did learn there's a big rivalry with the Green Bay Packers which is good as I never liked that team anyway.
What made you support the Bears?
Glennon is our starting QB, but he's mainly a stopgap while Trubisky (rookie first round draft pick) learns the ropes. But Trubisky looked exciting in preseason. Realistically, we're nowhere near good enough to make the playoffs yet, but we're building a good young team, filled with some veterans to help out the rookies and second-years.
I supported the Bears quite randomly, visited Chicago in 2010 and just thought I would support them. We made it to the NFC Championship Game that year, but lost to Green Bay. That was the last time we made the playoffs.
