I imagine Johnson highly endorsed that. Bagent has shown a very high aptitude and probably has all of the tools besides arm strength, which can be worked around in the right scheme. Johnson believes Bagent has what is necessary to run the offense if Caleb gets hurt or benched. Thats good for us. Congrats to Tyson.

He's talked very highly of Bagent, yes.

ACL? Because that's certainly what it looked like live.

Excited for tonight but damn that secondary against Mahomes and Co. could get ugly. I hope Booker shows out and makes his life miserable.

[BigSlick]

I made a mistake and looked at the Bears schedule this year: wait a second, why is a last place schedule so goddamn hard? Oh its because the NFC North isn't it. 

I really hope everyone else in the NFC North takes a serious step back. Good lord. 

[We Got The Whole 9]

They need to win the majority of the division games for sure to have any shot.

Yeah I think they got a terrible draw for SF being a last place team from the NFC West. Pretty important to win the opener vs Minnesota- I doubt they can go into Detroit in week 2 and win.

Well it’s the entire Chiefs starting offense and it’s still preseason but that was not a great looking defensive series for the Bears

[Derwood]

Love that I'm nowhere close to Chicago or KC but that NFL Network tells me that the game isn't available in my area

[UMFan83]

And the Bears starting offense fumbles a hand off, gets a false start and then Caleb holds onto the ball and has to throw it away

[UMFan83]

Mahomes is still trying to stick it to the Bears for not drafting him

[UMFan83]

3 times now Caleb has seemingly held onto the ball too long. 

[Thurman Merman]

Dude needs to throw the ball

[UMFan83]

This is a rough watch. Hasn’t Mahomes proved enough tonight?

[UMFan83]

Blah blah blah preseason, this is sobering. 

Mahomes has 139 yards passing through the first quarter. Caleb had 4 games last year where he didn’t reach 139 passing yards. 

[UMFan83]

Bears have already started incorporating quick screen passes to prevent Caleb from holding onto the ball too long. 

This is a completely different Caleb, much less decisive, hanging onto the ball. 

I know I’m overreacting to a preseason game but it looks so much like last year

Please let the Cub game be more entertaining than this horsefeathers show

[Tryptamine]

Partially related, but holy horsefeathers this secondary sucks.

[Tryptamine]

Odunze with another drop

[UMFan83]

That’s the best play I’ve seen Rome make as a Bear

[Tryptamine]

Well that was a really good drive

[Wilson A2000]

Good drive to probably end Caleb’s preseason

[UMFan83]

Ben was not satisfied until that last drive

[SpongeWorthy]

williams was fine and the offensive line looked pretty functional

otoh the defensive line was absolutely dog walked and the chiefs might have gotten the best player in the draft at 31 at a position of need
