Bears and Mitch Trubisky keep talking about everything but the obvious: his poor play

The amount of energy that Mitch Trubisky and the Bears put into not talking publicly about his quarterbacking deficiencies is impressive. It must be exhausting, too.

For the past three years, we’ve heard all about Trubisky’s leadership ability, his enthusiasm, his work ethic, his desire to be great, etc. His tendency to overthrow receivers is glossed over in favor of grand speeches about his passion for film study.

Remember the “little things’’ he planned to work on during training camp? It was a classic.

“I think it could be as simple as cleaning up in the locker room, just simple things like that,’’ Trubisky said.
