August 20, 2025Aug 20 comment_225819 very good for us. on most teams when the QB goes down, even for a few weeks, the season is in jeopardy. Having a quality backup is a fantastic thing to have. Report

Not that it’s our intent this year or even next but on the last year of that deal? Poles gave himself two years to find the next backup. This officially ends the Case Keenum hype train Report

Keenum was brought in to help Caleb learn the ropes of the NFL since the Flus, Waldron, Thomas Brown (who never spoke to Caleb until promotes to OC), circus left him clueless. I hope they can find a way to keep him as the #3 to help him through the long season. Report
August 20, 2025Aug 20 comment_225833 Poles doubling down on the highest paid position in football. God forbid something happens to Caleb but at least a high end back up at a reasonable price. Poles does make some good decisions and this is one of them. Report

He has NCAA all time records that would stand at any level, but he played at a AA school or something like that. Report

August 21, 2025Aug 21 comment_225853 This is a great move and really happy for Bagent and it’s a smart move by Bagent too. He knows Johnson is legit and if at some point he plays and excels - all of a sudden he’s getting traded for to start all while learning and working with a good coaching staff while securing some real earnings over next few years. And for Bears - they basically have locked in a lot of cap flexibility to be spent on other positions over the next 2 years. Report
August 21, 2025Aug 21 comment_225858 I hope he sticks around, but the contract now makes him more appealing to other teams because he is locked in at the lower price for a few years. Kind of wild that Trubisky hasn't gotten another chance to start, but teams like New Orleans are ok going with Shough, Haener, and Rattler? Report
