I saw this article title, and thought... interesting.
The parallels.... Ouch! Lol.
The Foles trade seemed a head scratcher at the time.

Bears Are Clearly the New Jaguars and Will Decimate Their Defense Soon
It's absolutely shameful to see a talented team like the Chicago Bears struggle due to the play of the quarterback. The Bears' defense ranks as one of the best in the league the past two seasons, but were let down by Mitchell Trubisky's lack of progress through his first three seasons. There's no way things can get worse, right? Right?
Well, based off recent history, the Bears are heading down the same path as the Jacksonville Jaguars, who are now destined for the basement of the NFL standings.

That's right, Bears fans. We don't blame you if you have to vomit.
The 2017-18 Jaguars teams boasted the most talented defense in the league, which included the likes of Calais Campbell, Jalen Ramsey and Myles Jack. Even though they smacked around the opposition, they were held back by the terrible play of quarterback Blake Bortles. Yes, he played admirably in their playoff run to the AFC Championship Game, but once he was handed a bloated contract, the Jaguars imploded.
Bortles was handed his walking papers just one year into his massive deal. Even the team acquiring Nick Foles couldn't save them from their downward spiral. In just two years, the Jaguars moved on from Campbell, Ramsey, AJ Bouye, Malik Jackson, Tashaun Gipson, Barry Church and Aaron Colvin. All that talent from the "Sacksonville defense" gone due to poor front office management.
This is a nightmare scenario for the Bears. Just imagine if the team cuts ties with or trades the likes of Khalil Mack, Roquan Smith, Eddie Jackson and Akiem Hicks, for example. There would be riots in the streets of Chicago!
Bears fans, just hope that the Philadelphia Eagles' version of Foles shows up in the Windy City.

The Chicago Bears appear to be heading down a similar path to the Jacksonville Jaguars, who are now bottom dwellers in the NFL.
