We have never had a WR who was willing to put his body and health on the line to go airborne going after inaccurate pass after inaccurate pass like Arob was. He put the team ahead of his own well being an absurd amount.

Dude was an outside receiver going up for 50/50 balls.

It isn't like he was Wes Welker going across the middle of the field getting murdered every play.

"He had one of the best seasons of his career, with 98 receptions for 1,147 yards and seven touchdowns. And while I'm not going to use this forum as an opportunity to bash the quarterback, it's important to note that this production came on a team that ranked 25th in passing yards and 29th in overall offense."

After a slow start it looks like he's been doing the business for the Bears, despite some shakey QB play.  What could he have done with a decent QB?

He's always been a very talented WR. I'm not surprised after he put up 1k and 10 TDs with Bortles that he managed a solid season even with Trubisky at QB.

Yeah, if he could play with a Tom Brady or Manning or Rodgers he'd probably be a star in this league.
Shame he tore his ACL and this team offered a deal that was meant to protect us rather than reward him.

But I'm pretty happy with Chark and think Chark can be just as good.
