The Bears aren't that far away at all. They first need to hire an offensive minded head coach to groom Trubisky. Next they should sign/draft 2/3 WRs, find an OT and then keep stacking defensive pieces. I like their future 2-3 year outlook. https://t.co/VbmKkqNFND

Maybe…
Trubisky has been terrible (7 TD, 7 INT – 60% – ?). If he flops, they're miles away. https://t.co/CoDLfTOV12

Won't be shocked at all if we're sitting here next year saying "how in the world didn't Jaleel Johnson get on the field as a rookie?" I think he has tremendous upside. Tom Johnson's high level of play severely limited his role as a rookie.
