The DUMBEST QUARTERBACK in Chicago Bears HISTORY
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 июл 2023
- Think of the stupidest thing that you can say after an extremely disappointing season where your team finished below .500 and where you played terribly. I promise you, it's not as stupid as this. Because after the 1966 NFL season, Chicago Bears quarterback Rudy Bukich said just about the dumbest thing imaginable, and it defies logic nearly 60 years later

Bears fans in the late '60s: "We're not booing, we're just chanting BUUU-kich."
If Bukich had been born 40-50 years later, his twisted logic would have made him the ideal modern day politician.
*THANK YOU* for being one of the people who noticed this besides me!
Love this Bears history. The year before, Mike Ditka and Johnny Morris had basically fought for Rudy Bukich to be the starter over Billy Wade. It went well the first year, but things changed the following year. Halas considered it a personal slight for Ditka to speak in favor of Bukich to the press. It contributed to him getting traded by 1967
I never knew before this video how much I liked hearing the name Bukich. Seriously.
Bukich didn't say that the Bears came close to winning those first two games; he merely said that they should have won them, which was true, given the apparent talent differential and expectations. It would have been better if he had said, "We got off to a bad start because we and I stunk the joint out in those first two games, putting us into a hole that we failed to dig ourselves out of."
A video on Jack Concannon, who succeeded Bukich as the Bears' starting QB, might be interesting; he proved to be not too bright off the field in his post-football career. His star receiver, Dick Gordon, was dealt to the Rams after the 1971 season, and criticized the Bears as an antiquated organization.
The dumbest QB I can remember seeing is Jim Druckenmiller. Yes, he won his first ever start against the Rams (who the 49ers at that time literally always beat) but they won in spite of him and what I remember is the look on his face throughout the game. It sent one message to the world and that was "Huurrr duurrr". Druckenmiller looked like he was having trouble thinking to gud. I'm telling you, it was obvious the guy legit had an IQ of 85 or less. The concept of tying his shoes might've confused him.
Long suffering Bears fan here...guess we're all closet masochists once we hang in there for a decade or so. BTW...your channel is much better than Mr. Beast!
This can’t be said for 90% of Bears QBs since then?
Dude...😟
Your mathematics during the recap of this fine video was very Scott Steiner-esque, holler if you hear me! 💪
It's so cool to see u with over 50k subs. I subbed with like 10k, really cool to see the progression
This Vid made me want to get a ball spike it down every play
Bukich (10) just kind of disappeared after the ‘65 season. He was on the cover of Sports Illustrated back then (maybe that explains it?). You just never heard from him again, even during the troubled ‘66 season for Chicago. Maybe the media cut him a lot of slack because he was on the ‘63 squad which won the title. He just kind of faded away - this story really explains what happened back then. Those clips of him in 1966, man, he was bad.
And Rudy Bukich got cut from bears after 1968 season
Oh Craig krenzel, Moses moreno, basically any QB from 1998 to 2005 entered the chat
It’s crazy! Down 41-7 after three and you think you should’ve won. It would’ve required them to pull off the greatest comeback in NFL history to do so. Better than the Vikings on Colts, the Bills on Oilers, the 49ers on Saints, and the Patriots on Falcons. The 66 Bears? Yeah, that wasn’t going to happen.
On December 7th, 1980 (14 years after the 1966 season), after the first half of play, the New Orleans Saints led the San Francisco 49ers (at Candlestick Park) 35-7. The 49ers came back and won it in overtime, 38-35.
The difference was that the 49ers had Joe Montana at QB (he was famous for leading Notre Dame's comeback against Houston in the 1979 Cotton Bowl after being down 34-12), and Joe Montana was FAR better than Rudy Bukich at the position (not to mention that the 49ers had Dwight Clark, Freddie Solomon, etc.)...
@@Unknown-bq9id that’s why I mentioned that game in the list.
@@KWCline91 Yeah, and Joe Montana was FAR more talented that Rudy Bukich ever was...
@@KWCline91 Oh, and from the 2019-2020 divisional round, I also forgot the Texans-Chiefs game--where the Texans led 24-0 (not as big a lead, mind you, but still a 24-point lead), but allowed 48 unanswered points before losing 51-31 (the Chiefs scored so many touchdowns that they ran out of fireworks). Of course, the Chiefs had Patrick Mahomes at QB...
@@Unknown-bq9id that was a coaching issue. The better 24-point comeback was 49ers vs. Giants in 02.
Whooaa… a lot of hatred there bro… Glad you got it out of your system… Even diehard Bear fans don’t see it as bad as you do…
And Bukich is not even close to the dumbest Bear QB…
I think it was another number 10… Bobby Douglass takes that honor in my book…
Bear fan since ‘61.
Any QB who runs is okay in my book. Steve Grogan was fun to watch.
@@davidlafleche1142 Most of Bobby Douglass’s runs we’re backwards…
I remember after one particular set of downs it was 4th and 63… that was embarrassing…
Did I hear Mike Ditka say that Rudy could throw the football from one end zone to the other? Or am I dreaming?
Believe it!!
I remember in high school we lost to the same road rival Douglas Byrd 41-14 and we felt we missed by that much. And to add insult to injury someone ransacked our locker room and stole some money. However we met them in the playoffs and beat them. So yea we did miss it by that much. Lmao
After Rudy Bukich’s pass was picked off by Dave Robinson of the Packers at 10:32, the official signaled for the clock to keep running after Robinson was tackled by Mike Ditka. Shouldn’t the clock have been stopped since there was a change of possession?
My honest assessment is that Bukich was 50 years ahead of his time. His level of self-delusion has now become normalized and even weaponized against sane people since 2016.
This delusion has been around for several decades. Social media only made it more obvious.
Yes. Dude would make a “good” politician these days.
The Bears have had a lot of dumb quarterbacks in their history. It’s hard to pick just one.
Haurgh bo was stupid too. Remember when he called that audible and ditka flipped. Jimbo said he would never do it ever again. Bear qb history is stupid. bears drafting of fields is stupid.
Why did sports leagues have a fetish for putting east coast teams in west divisions back then
The NFL flunked geography. Atlanta in the WEST, Dallas in the EAST. That's all I need to know.
@@davidlafleche1142 They put Dallas in the East for some reason in 1960, which was pointless since they played everybody anyway and then it actually degraded from there
That's one of the most glaring cases of lacking self-awareness that I've ever heard of. I don't know what Bukich was thinking about.
The mid '60s is when lack of self-awareness started becoming the new normal in America. I suspect Bukich was just trying to be like the cool kids.
Nothing funnier than watching Mike Ditka run to make tackles.
Chicago native, exactly why i hate our sports team😂😂😂
Your sports teams are the least of your worries living where you do. You should just be worried about making it through each day alive TBH.
Definitely a dumb thing for him to say, but I admit I was expecting something really bonkers due to the setup. Like he was going to claim aliens used some kind of gravity beam to knock his throws off target. But a great presentation nonetheless. A controversy that most (including myself) had no knowledge of prior to this video, but which I am sure still infuriates most old-time Bears fans.
Man did you draw that out. At the 10 minute mark I just googled what he said. LOL
I don’t know what year the so called “Sports Illustrated” curse began, but on September 12, 1966 the Chicago Bears were featured on the cover of that magazine’s NFL Preview. It was a photograph of Rudy Bukich handing the ball off to Gale Sayers. So, if there is anything to that curse theory, the Bears 1966 season was doomed before it began.
"Bro if we didn't lose, we definitely woulda won."
-Rudy Bukich probably
If the 1989 Packers win all the one possession games they lost are 12-4 instead of 10-6 and make playoffs, or lose all one possession games they won, are 4-12…
I hate when players are too proud to admit they lost because other team was better that day, “They didn’t beat us we beat ourselves“ okay, what good team beats themselves?
Sounds like Geno Smith. Well, hopefully not the falling apart thing this year 😁
Hey I knew Rich Gannon would be great back in the late 80’s… I also thought Bubby Brister, Dave Archer, and Jay Schroeder we’re future hall of gamers. Yeah I sucked at picking out the next best QB but I got Rich Gannon correct
Fun Fact: My Aunt used to babysit Rudy's kids and I met him a few times when I was a child. He was just as much of a Malaprop in his daily life as he was to the Press.
You are a joke. Can you throw a ball?
This was absolutely worth all 31 minutes.
Agreed
I don't know. If you take out all of the variations of "you're not going to believe how dumb he was" said about 20 different ways, the video could've been half as long with all the information. Honestly, I got bored of the hype and kept trying to skip ahead.
I heard Ditka say in an interview that Bukich threw a pass 100 yards in the air in practice. Then I saw the ‘65 stats and couldn’t imagine what could have happened after that. You told me everything I needed to know. Wow.
The bears had to wait until 1975 to get another qb, and that quarterback was a certain running back, called sweetness. He's played qb better than almost every bears qb since the merger
Absolutely false.
@SECRETARIATguy224 you obviously don't get the joke
@@Fireyninjadog Yes I do. That joke is dumb. You're obviously joking that Payton played qb better that anyone they've had since 1970 because the Bears have had such generally awful qb play throughout their history.
@SECRETARIATguy224 Other than fields, mcmahon, and kramer, who's good with the bears at qb, post merger?
@@Fireyninjadog For God's sake, a whole bunch of them were better than Walter Payton . . . at QUARTERBACK. I grew up in Chicago. Saw his entire career. Cried convulsively when the man died. However, there's a group of Bears, and football, fans in general out there who think Payton simply wasn't human . . . that he could do no wrong on the field. He was one of the very greatest players that ever played, but he was _not_ capable of playing QUARTERBACK. What his incredible athleticism enabled him to do was be _very good_ at throwing the option pass. Sure, he had the 9 career touchdown passes [8 regular season, 1 postseason], but he also had his share of interceptions and incompletions.
I think Bukich was referring to the two ties not the losses. Against the Lions and Niners
That's what I initially thought too, but he wasn't. He said the Lions opener (which they lost) and the 49ers game out there (in San Francisco, not in Chicago)
If Bukich meant to talk about the ties and misspoke that would be understandable. But based on what you said in the rest of the video it seems that Bukich was the last one to plead “Woulda coulda shoulda.”
I grew up a Steelers & Dolphins fan.....never a fan of the Chicago Bears.....Although you can be sure I respected the Bears, I had no idea about this poor guy......
I do remember Bobby Douglass and the Howitzer that G-d built into his left shoulder.....
Are you saying that there was a Bears QB that's WORSE than Kramer, Griese, Grossman & Cutler combined?
Damn...😟
I've been watching the Chicago Bears for almost 60 years now. They have NEVER had a QB of any value for any length of time in all those years. That is why They've been bad for the Majority of those years, except for a 6 year run in the 80s under Ditka. There's a reason why they call QB the most Important Position on the Football Field.
Obviously, you don’t remember the Cade McNown era.
First youngster that everyone ignores, cus ya just need to throw er 2 cents in .Jordan, Kobe, LeBron, Ali bla bla was the goat bla bla. Goat running back ? #1 Herschel Walker # Earl Campbell # Walter Payton, line the rest up however you want ! Barry Sanders didn't have the power ! Before ya argue that. Best Baseball player ???? Ricky Henderson, lead off home runs, stolen bases, walks. Greatest heavyweight ?? Tony Galento 😅😂😂 .
There are some teams where QBs go to die.
19:55 😎
Was Nick Saban dumb for saying that his Bama team was 2 plays from being undefeated?
When I first saw the video picture or Clickbait as you might call it. I thought this was going to be about Bobby Douglass who also wore the number 10. But he was a left-handed quarterback. So I knew it wasn’t him.
Funny, I thought it would be Bob Avellini.
@@denisceballos9745 as I recall, Bob Avellini wore number seven.
@@shackdaddy7106 You’re right about that. I was surprised to see that it was Bukich. Quite a fall from his ‘65 season- did a complete 180.
Randy Johnson??? What does a former Seattle Mariners pitcher have to do with any of this? 😉😋
MY GOSH YOU JUST DESCRIBED DEREK CARR FOR 9 YEARS INA ROW. INA ROW??? IN A ROW!!!!!
Is this only dumbest QB in Chicago Bears history or there other one?
Wtf jimmy jones 24:40 well at least a couple of other Jimmie jones redeemed it
This guy certainly takes the cake and eats it too in regards to dumb Bears quarterbacks.
Carolina was 3-11 in first 14 games
But Doug still read Defensives better than Fields! And was on a less talented team than fields is now! And no TV Timeouts!
It's pretty amazing looking back that the defending NFL Champs weren't the prohibitive favorites that years instead of the Bad News Bums. Just goes to show how history repeats itself as far as Choke-ago screwing up a good thing. 😂😂😂 #GoPackGo
Carolina hope they can be 5/7/2 not a bad!
A bad one would be 3/11 2/12 1/13 0/14
Bobby Douglas
DEREK CARR LOWEST WONDERLIC TEST IN THE NFL QB POSITION DERRRRR DERRREK CARR.
He saved his best performance for the season recap.
It sounded like he was saying that they were a few plays from 8-6. I may be in the minority here, but I don't have a problem with that.
Ok, I retract that statement. I didn't see the 41-14 rout vs the 49ers, when I made that statement.
But that Boy! Sure was fast!
& the Yankees should have won game 7 in 2004
That's easy! Justin Fields!
The drought for Da Bears 🐻 at qb will continue because Fields is nothing but a glorified running back
24:46 😎
You want the main reason the 1966 bears stunk? Ok, I will tell you, but you won’t like it. It was not Bukich. Yes, he played badly, yes hus comment was dumb, but “out there“ with no other context does not necassarily mean San Fransico. It could just mean out on the field. Now here is the reason, and honestly you Lowlights as you called them prove this, The 1966 Bears as a team every last player, played like they didn’t know what they were doing. That’s right the 1966 Bears sucked because they all played like they sucked.
Finally a video and comment section that isn't filled with little kids comments claiming they knew everything about these players and he was the best and he was the goat , and they were at this and that game ect ect bla. Bla, 😂 i guess you have to go back to the era when only qwaified fans remember these days . players. 🫡💜
