I just wont take anyone seriously if they were bothered by how Caleb reacted when he thought he may have torn his hamstring. 

You're just not a serious football fan if it bothered you in the slightest.

Tonight will be super interesting.  We've seen some of these offensive gurus who are able to keep the offense mostly running with backups starting.  Keenum is (very) old but has had success as a starter in the league and has been with the Bears the entirety of Ben's tenure.  Ben Johnson is enough of a psycho to have a break in case of emergency offense ready to go in the event Keenum starts.   I don't expect an overwhelmed backup trying to fit their skillset into an offense not built for them, but at the same time if the defense is bad, he's gonna be in a position where he needs to be near perfect to keep up.

Also interested to see adjustments by the Eagles defense after getting gashed badly on the ground last year.  No doubt the Bears will want to run the offense through the run game again but the Eagles are going to stack the box and dare the Bears to beat them in the air.  I think this would be a good game to get the TEs more involved on short routes that will force the defense to stay honest.

Will Bagent only get in the game if Keenum gets hurt, or will he get in if Keenum just sucks real bad too?

Probably the latter.  He's cleared from the concussion, I think the main reason Keenum is starting is because he took all the first team reps and was involved in installing the game plan.

So, we know all the Bears' injuries, what about the Eagles?  No Goedart and Hollywood Brown, Barkley a little banged up has got to be a positive for the Bears' chances.

Get Sam Roush out of the game! The ball wasn’t going anywhere. Does he have CTE already?
