Chicago Bears fans love their backup QB. Only when the backup becomes the main man do they realize they might have been a little too giddy.
Sitting in the north end zone of Soldier Field on Sunday during the third quarter of the Chicago Bears game with the Minnesota Vikings, I noticed quarterback Justin Fields heading toward the exit holding his right hand. I nudged one of my friends and pointed to Fields. “We now,” he said. Neither of us had any idea Fields had been injured on a previous play, and we weren’t really sure who the backup was that day.
We seemingly waited forever for Kyle Orton to replace Rex Grossman, and then saw him dealt for Jay Cutler, the only Bears quarterback disliked by a large segment of fans no matter how he performed on the field. We couldn’t wait for rookie Mitch Trubisky to replace the statuesque Mike Glennon, and then couldn’t wait for the Bears to draft someone new to replace Trubisky. It’s been a vicious cycle of Bearsness our whole lives, and something we’ve learned to live with.
