Worst Bears QB in recent history

[Bill Swerski]

Uggh, what a mess!

 

I'm going to have to go with Burris, with Quinn coming in a close second.

[rocknrobn26]

Trying to keep my breakfast down looking at that list.

Almost picked Kordell, but had to go w/ Mirer.

[BigTen]

I do not think Kramer should be on that list. He was not that bad of a QB. On another note, after Walter Payton you could probably have a good "bad" RB list as well.

[gilthorp]

I also went with Burris.

 

Tied for second would be Stewart/Quinn/Sauter.

 

Some of the others on the list were serviceable, but the biggest bust still goes to Cade.

[Clubfoothead]

Grossman.

[rhippens]

voted for burris. i've never seen anything like that game he came in and i think he threw 2 passes to himself, fumbled a few times, etc. i really can't remember all of it, my eyes were filled with tears.

Agreed that I probably could've taken Kramer off of the list and replaced him with Jim Miller. Kramer only had about two "good" seasons, though.

 

The Bears have had some pretty decent RBs after Payton, though (Neil Anderson, A-Train, Thomas Jones). Anderson was actually pretty good. But, yeah, some have been serious busts as well (Salaam, Enis, Bennett, etc.).

Wow! Impressive list. I didn't see Kordell's name on the list right away. I immediately looked for it.

 

Btw, not fair to include backups on the list. I'd vote based on the Bears relying on a starter for the year and they should be expected to be better than the 3rd backup.

Years ago my sig line was "It's time for the Kordell experiment to end."

[Big Red]

If I weren't a Ravens fan, I'd feel sorry for you.

 

[forcing smile]At least Boller will turn it around this year [/forcing smile]

[Kansas State 2000]

It's been 20 years since a serviceable QB played in Chicago.

 

Likes like a 20 way tie for 1st.

[Blue Cross]

Why there is not an "All of the above" choice?

[Furd]

Mein gott!

 

That has to rank right up (down) there with recent Lions "field generals."

I think Jim McMahon, even if he is like 50 something, is still their best option today ... Things haven't been the same since he left!

[Zooty]

Uhhhg! Its like a fantsay draft in Hell.

[Pope Flick]

Peter Tom Willis?

 

 

Still, had to go with McNown. How they thought a happy footed southpaw who floated his passes would ever succeed in Soldier Field is still beyond me.

 

They passed on Culpepper (but picked up a few good 3rd rounders) that draft.

[BigTen]

They are giving the post Marino Dolphins a run for their money.

[Seahawk37]

Rick Mirer

[Egret]

McNown was a first round bust. That's a bigger strike than anybody else on the list. Oh if only the Lions had kept Kramer!

[Randall]

I'd go with Kordell if play calling was part of the question. Kordell running the option was a sight. Poor Bears fans.

Agreed! That's my pick. Really no comparison.

Mirer was a first round bust twice. First in Seattle, then Chicago traded a first round pick (#11 I think) for him.

When i first read the poll, I was tinkin' worst NON-DRAFT pick. And I was split 'tween Kordell & Mirer! YES, McNown.....was their worst QB draft pick of all time, but if the Bears didn't pick him, guarantee the teams behind would have.

 

Mirer & Kordell were the worst NON-DRAFT pick any team could have made!
