Tyson Bagent's sterling performance in his first NFL start was, first of all, a lot of fun and, second of all, inspiring and instructive.
It may not quite be Bagentmania yet, but Tyson Bagent’s sparkling turn in his first NFL start on Sunday represented welcome fun for a Bears fan base unused to the concept. The undrafted rookie out of Division II Shepherd University of West Virginia — hardly a heralded cradle of star quarterbacks — not only capably led the Bears offense, he flourished in what ended up being a lively victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. The networks lapped it up.
Boiled down, it all came out to lots of hard work, confidence and his love of what he does. Some will no doubt roll their eyes at those sorts of old-fashioned virtues. Thomas Edison famously described “genius” as 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Maybe Edison’s percentages are overstated, but those words from another era still resonate.
