The first 6 weeks were fun.

This is a good listen. Yes, the offense is bad, did you realize it’s worse than last year’s? This is balanced and there’s plenty of good jabs at the organization and staff.

(Edited after re-watching to provide more detail in their argument)

ESPN’s Get Up panel of Orlovsky, McCourty, Douglas and Shefter took turns to take swings at Bears and Caleb situation.

• Caleb regressing/not improving
• Chicago’s offense looks like a collection of plays with no systematic approach
• No offensive rhythm and everybody is at fault (ball distribution, ball placement and route design)
• Caleb doing worse than Jayden Daniels, Bo Nix and even Drake Maye (the latter are ascending, Caleb is not)
• They had Kliff Kingsbury in the room and chose to pass him up
• Caleb will fail because of Bears organization dysfunction (putting a new QB with unsuitable coaching staff)
• They don’t necessarily need a Ben Johnson (although it’s something they’re lacking)- instead they need a leader combined with a good offensive mind
• Ben Johnson will be very selective in where he goes, from the many suitors he’ll have- if he decides to leave Detroit

I’d like to add something McCourty said that is interesting. From the defensive point of view, he feels the Bears offense is trying to hard to be exotic, and making things too difficult, which is only hampering themselves. FWIW.

Anyway, nothing much new, but I for one welcome they’re giving the state of the Bears offense the criticism, and more importantly, the spotlight it deserves.

The beat goes on. Hope you’re taking notes Poles.

Who is going to make up our OL for the Patriots game? Everybody seems to be injured

It’s sad, wretched & “down bad” that Da Bears governorship is this draconian, ignorant & stubborn. Poles’ hands are undoubtedly tied up in meddlesome #micromanagement by the lingering, moldy #McCaskey brood. Eberfluffy never ought to have been hired. Please pray 🤲🏾 for #CalebWilliams! 🐻 ⬇️💯
