Marshall Harris called the St. Charles North @ Brother Rice playoff game this past Saturday for the NFHS Network. It was the first time I heard him since The Score let him go a couple months ago. He’s not bad doing the commentary for HS football games.

Was listening to Payton and haugh this morning. Payton described Olin Kreutz as “speaking truth to power” but in a way that meant “Olin is speaking truthfully about how powerful the bears are”

I got tickets to a luncheon one time celebrating the sox HOF players post-Baines. JR was there. Seated at my table were a bunch of long-time season ticket holders. Their whole life revolved around the sox. They did the cruise to Mexico with sox players. They had field of dream tix. They just loved any player and any year. It was wild to me, a completely different relationship to the team than I had and whole different kind of die hard. Those are probably the people going to the focus groups.

It doesn't matter but it is mildly annoying how we keep playing teams that are relatively hot but turn out to fall apart after we play them. Falcons were getting a lot of love post-Penix return, crumbled. Pats recovered and were red hot, lose to us then almost pull a clunker vs. miami. Seahawks have been dominant defensively but now back to .500 (good, since we prob need the wild card). Panthers started decent then look like dog poo. Now the Bucs, who have a bad record, are coming in red hot again with baker back and a stout defense.

They were replaying the previous play and it was a quick snap. It was covered like a high school crew. Even after the replay they didn't realize what had happened. I told my wife and son, they was a goofy play and then in the replay we saw it but Buck and Aikman were still mumbling to them themselves about Caleb rolling right (he was slot left) or something. Hopefully Awful Announcing may pick it up.

Yeah seems to be that kind of guy who will bounce around 3-4 times this offseason before finally sticking

I missed the play... do you think there is a video since it wasn't the espn highlights?

I would trade Caleb Williams for Josh Allen. Outside of Allen, when you factor in age, potential….I’m having a hard time coming up with another name that would make sense

I mean, I had to watch that replay to figure out exactly what happened too lol, it was like Caleb teleported to the middle of the field and then had the ball in his hands and then threw a 20 yard strike lol

Also anyone catch when the Bears ran the wildcat and got he ball to Caleb for a throw and neither Buck or Aikman had any clue what happened. Not sure if they watch the game on the teleprompter or what as the play was not covered on tv properly. They were mystified even after seeing the replays.

And that's my point.

I chuckled with my wife that the Blackhawks and Bulls were both playing last night and not a sports fan in Chicago should have cared. Not sure if either were at home but you couldn't have paid me to go to either of those games.

Welcome to the Super Bowl conversation Chicago Bers. I would have liked to have seen Johnson get a few more carries especially late as Swift was awesome and so key to the success. Johnson had some nice runs and could shoulder some burden. Every yard was an absolute grind. Great to see Rome step up. The Bears CBs are absolute garbage. Johnson and Stevenson are an embarrassment but that DL will cover for them. Bush is insanely underrated. Get Bryant back for the ending 3 division games. That'll be the season right there.

What a statement game, wow.

Good Better Best

Even thinking bears are better than Seattle this year (darnold is just so bad, they miss kubiak), I thought doing it in Seattle on a Monday night would be too hard. Nope. And - yes underrated how good Simmons is. Flipping your worst position to all pro does insane things.

They were so far and away better than both teams

The Bears were so good that game that Troy Aikman was complimenting Caleb. My god.

Great game all around. Could use some work on the flags though.

I feel you bro, it still doesn't feel real to me that we have a legit top 5 QB. I'm so used to having everything but a QB, but we finally have one. Feels good 😊

Yet so much more fun then the past 4 years. Caleb Wilson is special!

I agree - last two weeks he hasn’t done anything that special, he’s just executed the offense crisply against strong teams and put up nice completion percentages plus yards and protected football. Dude is taking a huge leap this year and I think there is even more room left given how strong his tools are!!! I don’t think I’ve seen something like this ever from the Bears (I was 2 in 85 so that doesn’t count). I hope this is real and not a dream!!!

Yeah this defense has given up points at the end of the half the last 2 weeks. Last week was on a bunch of guys (mostly Jaylon). Today it was on Tyrique for biting on a slant/in when he had no safety help. Allen should probably know better than to do that since it's Tyrique, but that's absolutely something you can't do as a corner on an island.

About only play Id like over on D would be the end of first half play where we were aggressive and left Stevenson on an island with best wideout in NFL.
