Dang Skip. How did I compare him to Rome? I simply stated that some players could pick up the slack and that some are starving.

Sterling man! Did you not see how he self-destructed yesterday? He was ejected from the game for Pete’s sake. And besides the TD he scored followed by that sweet air-walk late last season, what has he done to significantly contribute to the offense? Don’t get me wrong, a huge fan but when it comes to comparing him to Rome it’s apples to oranges.

Absolutely, yes.

Don't kill the messenger! I'm trading Rome before the deadline. Burden, Walker, Raymond, Kmet, Loveland and Thomas can handle the load. Every game I watch, Walker is doing something well. He needs more snaps. He's also a big, athletic receiver. Another of the main reasons I let him go is because Caleb, Rome and Luther will be up for extensions the same year. $$. Lastly, Kmet and Loveland are starving for chances.

What a performance yesterday. It’s been a long time where I’m watching a game against a decent team and thought we would easily win the game. The only issue was the starters being rested in the 4th quarter. It’s been ages since a QB has played this well. The last time I can remember was a couple of stretches when Cutler looked the real thing. When we get players back, we could be a team that goes deep in the playoffs. Would anyone bring back Khalil Mack? This was suggested in the Bradshaw, Long, etc. after the game.

I think his offensive system is hard to prepare for if you don't get to see him often because more than half the league runs some variation of the Shanahan/McVay concepts. Ben's offense is unique. Teams in the division have played against him for years. He's not able to catch them by surprise. I also think it comes down to talent. The Bears don't have the same top end, elite players that Ben had in Detroit. We don't have an Amon Ra, a Jamison Williams, or a Gibbs. Few do, which is why the Lions are still as good as ever on offense, because they've had more talent than anybody over the last half decade. The Bears skill position players are inexperienced and inconsistent.

Good: Caleb Williams: accurate, took care of the football Kyler Gordon: single handily wrecked the game on defense, major impact player when healthy Tory Taylor: another banana ball forced fumble Bad: Ben Johnson in the 4th quarter: can't rest starters with that much time left Run game is non-existent without Monangai: Swift is either not healthy or just bad right now Too many fumbles by our ball carriers: Every week someone else takes their turn putting the ball on the ground in a critical moment. Enough! The officiating, took away at least 70-80 more passing yards from phantom penalties. The OPI on Loveland on 4th down was atrocious. Quick thoughts: Gordon's blitzing makes this defense dangerous with a lead. Caleb Williams took a few bad sacks, but otherwise played smart football. Didn't have to do too much. The short stuff was working today. Atlanta had to respect Caleb's arm. Next week's game is big. There's an opportunity to stack some wins with Tampa Bay and New Orleans coming up in 2 out of the next 3 games after next week. Have to get this one first.

I watched Atlanta game against Baltimore last week. You can’t come away from that game without knowing we have the better team in all phases. Baltimore did well to contain Bijan but they gave up a lot more in the passing game than we did. Dennis Allen continues to show he can get the most out of the talent he has on the field. Caleb and Ben make 31 pts feel like we left a lot on the field.

Huge huge game and great win. Caleb played his best game as a pro as a pure qb. He has had more electric games with big plays but this was just beautiful execution outside of taking a couple first down sacks that he had to get rid of it. Excellent performance and great to have him back. Defense was stellar - Kyler was electric but Lewis played well and everyone was swarming. Penalties were awful - between that and Roschon fumble we almost ruined a great day. I’d also say these refs were pretty weak. But bears have to clean up the little stuff. Fantastic to see ball spread all around today and in particular great to see Loveland get involved early and often. That TD catch was great.

I didnt catch it, but at one point before half Caleb and Ben were arguing on sideline. I missed it, but was told they think its because Caleb was handcuffed from running with the ball. He needed protection from that on a short week.

He said exactly that during his post game ball acceptance . About 1/2 way through this video. Important for the team to hear stuff like that .

I read this amazing stat on the "Heavy" website: (Copy & Paste quote):

I think Williams time on on the sidelines was beneficial.

Another crazy game, but man the officials are terrible. Dotson can push off but Loveland can't extend his arm? Caleb and Kyler wow. Caleb, the best Comp% for a Bears QB with over 30+ attempts, ever, 8.5 YPA with over 300 yards passing. Only 6 incompletions with several throw-aways. You could tell he is not 100%, 4 rushes for 3 yards and took 4 sacks. Hopefully he can keep healing and didn't aggravate anything. Amazing efficiency and exactly what we have been asking for. Kyler, wow, what a return. 3 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, 3 TFL on ONLY 16 snaps? Insane. Exactly what the defense needed. Outside of taking their foot off the pedal in the 4th and the refs, they should've won by 20.

Good to get some talent back. Coby Bryant, TJ, Dayo, Stevenson and Sweat coming back will help the D.

Yeah, for sure. Penalties then throttled back a little prematurely. But I have 20/20 hindsight on that part.

Dennis Allens ennvison of Kyler came to reality today.

Thank God Gordon is back in action today.

Bad taste in my mouth after such a sweet start.

Everything going bears way…except penalties. 11 for 118 so far and at the beginning of the 4th. Any other day and you’re losing. Can’t do that against teams playing well. pS: Jahdae Walker having a REALLY bad day today. Add 15 more yards.

All what matters is having Caleb back and seeing what he brings.

Honestly I think you might’ve seen it with Case in there last week - earlier in that game. But yes, having Caleb back makes a difference.

Glad to see the energy back. Why and how is the team so different from last week to this. Need Caleb to stay healthy from here on out

Wow! Caleb is apparently the elixir everyone needed. The defense, the offense and Ben. Everyone is fired up! The energy reminds me of the Eagles game.
