That's 11 different stops, including THREE different stints with the Patriots (that includes a Super Bowl). But the era that we are here to spotlight today features Hoyer's 5-game career with the Chicago Bears. It was short, but it was sweet. Take a look at this impressive stat that was brought up by Big Cat on today's show:

Small sample size? Yes. But numbers never lie. And if Hoyer didn't get injured while playing for the Bears, he certainly could have lasted a bit longer in Chicago. Throwing 300+ yards 4 out of 5 times is impressive, and as Big Cat mentioned on today's show, it puts Hoyer in consideration for Bears QB GOAT!
