Poll No. 3: If the Bears miss the playoffs in a completed season, should general manager Ryan Pace be back in 2021?

Upshot: “This needs a ‘depends’ answer,” commented @richg780. “If the roster is decimated by COVID-19 despite the safeguards the team has built around them, then it wouldn’t be his fault.” Does that count as a backhanded vote of confidence? Probably not. Pace has done some good things, but around here he’ll always be the man who looked at Deshaun Watson, Patrick Mahomes and Trubisky and said, “Ooh, I want that one!” ✶
