Watching the Chicago Bears beat the Cleveland Browns wasn't the greatest display of NFL football on the planet. Predictably the two teams looked like they were merely playing out the string. Thankfully the Bears managed to summon their desire to play on the afternoon and cruised to an easy win, led by rookie QB Mitch Trubisky. However, he wasn't the star of the game. No that honor belonged to backup Mark Sanchez.
As it turns out Trubisky was mic'd up for the game against Cleveland. It was actually a great opportunity to see and hear how the rookie acted among his teammates. He struck quite a unique balance. He could be just another one of the guys, laughing and joking, speaking typical locker room talk. Then he'd flip the switch and turn into a commanding. encouraging leader.
It's little wonder his teammates love him so much. Still, not even he was able to steal the show on that day. Instead it was his backup and mentor Sanchez who stole the show with a couple of unforgettable moments on the sideline before and during the game.
