5 takeaways from Bears’ crushing loss to the Packers

A season that began with Super Bowl aspirations ended before the playoffs even began to the rivals that set them back from the start.

5. Mitchell Trubisky was unable to redeem his 2019 season

This game was a microcosm of Trubisky’s 2019 season. Incredible throws with pinpoint accuracy, followed by poor decision making and straight misses to his wide receivers. The Bears quarterback was on a heater as of late, coming off arguably his best game as a Bears just 10 days prior and giving fans hope that he may still be the quarterback of the future.

He’s looked good as of late, but avenging his loss from earlier this season to the team that put the Bears behind the eight ball from the start would have gone a long way. Instead, the third-year pro was uneven for most the day, going 29-of-53 for 348 yards, one touchdown and two picks. He also posted his seventh quarterback rating of 70 or below on the season with 65.6.

This game likely won’t impact his future with the team as reports have been circulating for weeks he’ll remain the team’s starter in 2020, but it does all but close the book on his disappointing 2019 campaign.
