Imminent Achievements That Will Make You Appreciate Mitch Trubisky More

Mitch Trubisky might be one of the most divisive quarterbacks in the NFL today. He has people in the media that love him and people in the media that hate him. Those like Gregg Rosenthal and Colin Cowherd think he'll be playing for another team in three years. Others think he can be one of the brighter stars in the NFL and maybe the best QB the Chicago Bears have had since Sid Luckman. He's just been voted a Pro Bowl alternate, the first time that has happened in 33 years for a Bears signal caller. That in itself is an accomplishment. Yet even now there are plenty of people who think he hasn't been good enough. These same people are of course using names like Patrick Mahomes and Jared Goff as examples for why. Those arguments are long since played out and not fair in terms of comparison for various reasons. So perhaps the best way to sway some of the doubters is to explain some of the milestones that Trubisky has either already reached in his brief Bears career or is about to. Ones that should paint a clear picture of his value to the organization.

Most wins in for a Bears quarterback ever in his first two years

They say winning is everything right? Not only is Trubisky already at the point where he's started the most games in his first two seasons than any other drafted quarterback in team history. He also holds the record for the most victories as well. Between 2017 and 2018, he has a total of 14 wins under his belt. This eclipses the previous mark held jointly by Jim McMahon and Kyle Orton who each had 10 victories over their first two seasons. Trubisky has also been by far the more efficient player, throwing the same number of touchdowns (30) than those two did in their combined first two years.

Second QB to ever account for 30 TDs in a season

Think about this. Peyton Manning accounted for 30 touchdowns or more in 10 seasons during his illustrious Hall of Fame career. The Bears franchise, as a whole in a span of 96 years has seen it happen one time. Just one. That was when Jay Cutler threw 28 touchdowns and ran for two others in 2014. To this point, Trubisky has thrown 23 touchdown passes and rushed for three more. That puts him four away from becoming only the second man in almost a century to account for 30 touchdowns in a Bears season. Considering the fact he's in his second year as a pro and missed two games with a shoulder injury? That's pretty impressive.

The highest single-season passer rating in franchise history

People are so often obsessed with numbers when it comes to quarterback play. That's the way it goes sometimes. Above anything else they want efficiency. More good numbers, less bad ones. Often the best quarterbacks who skew those ratios to often ridiculous degrees like Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, or Drew Brees. Believe it or not, while he hasn't always been on target this year, Trubisky has played more efficient than any Bears quarterback in history. To this point, the two quarterbacks who held the franchise record for single-season passer rating where they started 10 or more games were Bill Wade and Rudy Bukich with a 93.7. Trubisky with two games to play sits at a 94.1. If that holds he'll have completed the most efficient passing season in team history. Not bad for a 24-year old kid.
