Quinn has one sack and five quarterback pressures in 270 defensive snaps this season.There are varying levels of skepticism when it comes to the Bears, so stop when you get to the red flag on the signing of Robert Quinn that pushed you to the point of concern.

Was it that they signed someone who strongly prefers playing defensive end in a 4-3 scheme to be an outside linebacker in a 3-4?
Maybe it was the moment Quinn said, in total seriousness, that he chose between the Bears and the Falcons by flipping a coin.
