BearFan PHX Posted November 16, 2025 Report Share Posted November 16, 2025 I think the Vikings defense has confused Caleb a lot today. Johnson needs to dial up the right plays and get Caleb's eyes where they need to be. This is a good trial by fire. I get that the Vikings defense is playing man to man with a spy, and the best way to attack that is with the deep ball, but you gotta move the chains. And that's on Johnson and the WRs getting open in shorter and intermediate routes too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The defense is not on their heels at all. Everything seems too predictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASHKUM BEAR Posted November 16, 2025 Report Share Posted November 16, 2025 Bears have to get 3 on this drive. BJ gets away from the run too often. You are a top 3 running team, get the Vikings on there heals then the pass game should be easier. Or 7! Passing is exciting but get the those 3 or 4 yrd carries and some points.

adam Posted November 16, 2025 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2025 Bears get an easy 3 points, but again, the issues are the play calling and protection. First play, a run was way too predictable. Caleb escapes two more sacks. Gotta get the protection cleaned up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bears4Ever_34 Posted November 16, 2025 Report Share Posted November 16, 2025 Ugh.. Missed a huge opportunity to go up two scores with a touchdown after that pick. Bears get the ball back to start the half. Cannot allow Minnesota to put up points before then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see that, but they were running out of time anyway. If you run and pick it up, its another timeout. Im not saying youre wrong at all - I can see it both ways.

50england50 Posted November 16, 2025 Report Share Posted November 16, 2025 Hope Johnson gets his s**t together after half-time. We really need to take advantage of chances with our brutal schedule. If we can take a 17-3 lead, I like that with how the defence is playing. I know Caleb has missed several throws, but it has been amazing how he has got away from the rush when the lines protection has been shocking.

They need to at least bracket him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
