Week 6 Official Game Thread - CHI @ ATL
I remember him now. Remember the RBs running drills during camp and noted he had really fast feet and tree trunks for thighs. Highlights here show he does pretty good as a catching back and mostly is a North / South runner. I’d like to see what he can offer.

For a player to lose over $1m per game the NFL would have to hear an appeal very quickly or there is risk of liability. Then when/if a player wins an appeal clubs won’t like coming back and paying someone for games not played. It’s not just paychecks lost it can also be games lost which affects playoffs. It’s hard to see how anyone would setup a process like that since the league office works for the owners. That’s why I think it’s most likely the appeal’s process is already done.

Week 6 Official Game Thread - CHI @ ATL
I’ve been off Roschon bandwagon since last year. The most likely explanation for Xavier Scott, 6’1” 220lbs, being activated over Ahmed, 5’11" 196lbs, is that he’s better on special teams. I’ve seen it said that Xavier Scott is also good at pass pro as well but cannot vouch for that. He spent some time last year as the 3rd RB for the Vikings catching a few passes. They’ve activated Scott again this week and given how poorly Roschon ran last week I’m wondering if they have them switch roles moving Roschon back to special teams and letting Scott handle some running plays. It’s a pretty low bar: Roschon Johnson rushed five times for six yards and caught five passes for 34 yards in the Bears' Week 5 loss to the Packers.

Week 6 Official Game Thread - CHI @ ATL
Was just about the post that too. And among some other roster moves they cut Xavior Woods, which is quizzical to me. With Bryant out for a bit longer who will play opposite Thieneman; Elijah Hicks or Skyler Thomas? https://www.chicagobears.com/_mobileview/news/chicago-bears-announce-roster-moves-october-17-2026?hidebanner=true&adobe_mc=TS%3D1792263692%7CMCMID%3D05256117061159766471400771852550346093%7CMCORGID%3DF75C3025512D2C1D0A490D44%40AdobeOrg

Yeah, Roschon is low IQ as a runner, but trusted in pass protection. If Ahmed can pick up the pass pro part, he may be an option. Ben's system is predicated on being able to run multiple sets off the same look. Can't do that if you don't block.

I wonder if they went with the other guy to save ahmed for later in the season. I know you can only activate and move back to practice squad so many times with vets. Added Edit... looks like 3 times they can elevate then have to be signed to 53 or released.

Kyler Gordon was just activated

I was wrong about seeing RoJo fill in. He’s no good. Can see why Ben has been keeping him low on the totem pole. Would rather see preseason darling Ahmed give it a crack - as backup.

Booker has been barking for more reps. Let's see how he plays. Monongai hurts.

Week 6 Official Game Thread - CHI @ ATL
Practice report for today. Good and bad. Defense is a mess with Edwards and possibly Sweat out. I would say possibly because of Stevenson too but if Muhammad is next man up there, I’d like to see how he does. No Monangai ☹️and both Gordon and Caleb “Questionable” after practicing all week.

I did read that somewhere, I believe so.

Usually aren’t you able to play while on appeal.

Rumors are Sweat is appealing his suspension. Which, according to reporters, is odd given decisions are made usually after any appeals. Some say he is on a type of prescription med that may show hot on tests. More to come perhaps. https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/bears-montez-sweat-may-reverse-230351450.html

Week 6 Official Game Thread - CHI @ ATL
I will feel a lot bette If we go into Atlanta with our starting qb and pull out a win (better yet a convincing win). Very worried about this game with our dline and lb corps and DBs…

Week 6 Official Game Thread - CHI @ ATL
Asked about Kyler Gordon’s status Ben simply said the plan is the same…we want to see him practice for 21 days before making a decision. No trust there. Ben also said we have guys on the roster who haven’t played yet. On that list are Jayden Loving and Jamree Kromah. The fact it’s critical we stop the run against Atlanta I’m going to guess we go bigger bodies on the Dline and this week we see Jayden Loving get the call. I expect they’ll have Lynch play more snaps at DE, he’s already taken some snaps there this season and if needed Daniel Hardy takes some snaps at DE as well. Hardy gets the nod over Jamree because of special teams. I still like Loving’s potential.

A who’s who list of who dat at DT.

I would trade a first rd pick and Sweat for Crosby. Im not sure they do much at DT this year with Jarrett, Dayo, Gallimore, Lynch, Van Den Berg, and co. It must be scheme assignment as to why the pressure isnt better.

I don't think we get an EDGE. The interior is not causing any disruption.

I saw that. LOL. Sounds like a mistake Google's AI would make. Gemini has made so many errors when I ask it a question; it is scary to think AI might take control.

In the ‘positive news’ department; Caleb and Gordon were listed as FULL participants for today’s practice.

Thanks for that. Couldn’t help but notice about halfway down the article the author mentioned “Gervon Dexter and D’Marcus Walker could face more attention from opposing offensive lines.” I know Dexter is gone but isn’t Walker too?

Did someone in the front office slip him a ruffee? Seems like a blessing to be able to go big on a Max Crosby or another top Edge. As for this year, I do not see the Bears cutting mid season without a reliable replacement.
