The name Patrick Mahomes was hard to hear at Halas Hall the last few years, especially as Mitch Trubisky failed to get anywhere close to his level and the Bears knew they’d made a mistake in the 2017 draft.
But that pain has faded, at least a little, and Mahomes’ name sounded pretty good as wide receiver Byron Pringle — a Chief the last three seasons — used it to compliment quarterback Justin Fields on his steady demeanor during the Bears’ late rally to win their season opener against the 49ers.
