I didn't know that.

And it was David Carr. Before he was able to be the pioneer and coined the phrase "he was Carr'd" as the poster boy of a talented QB coming in to a team that did not protect him and ruined him. Then the Bears perfected the concept.

I think CW can win this. I did not know it was 22 years since it has been done though

I didn't know that. Interesting that Caleb is 22 years old also. It was last done when he was born. Maybe it's an omen. LOL, it almost sounds like something from ancient prophecy - In the year 2024 a QB will come to save the Bears, and there will be "Four Horsemen" of doom that will befall the opponents... (although I guess if you count DJ Moore, Rome Odunze, Keenan Allen, Swift & Kmet... *counts fingers and toes* - that is "Five Horsemen" - so what does it all mean?

EDIT: I'm wondering if "The Ferret King" somehow is a part of this prophecy too... I just KNEW there was a reason why the Bears didn't cut Velus Jones. I'll bet that he is somehow part of the prophecy (VJ, not the ferret).

OMG!!!!!!

I'm getting a ouija board, some candles, a bear claw (actually two -- one from a bear and the other bakery type to eat while I do this), my Urlacher shirt, a rubber chicken and will be doing some incantations to get to the bottom of this!

The rubber chicken will be a nice touch... maybe we should burn an old Brett Farve bobble head (if we can find one) and spread the ashes on Soldier Field, just to be safe.

Well it's a good thing that CW & Co are going to kick the crap out of the Titans in a few days.

The article technically says no qb drafted #1 overall has won a week one start. The thread title is a little off.
