The Bears run game is functioning like a well-orchestrated symphony with them hitting their peak against the Eagles. Zone-based with gap concepts sprinkled in. Shrewd use of motion to clear out space, QB ball-handling from Caleb on point, cameraman being faked out. Ben Johnson & Dan Roushar >>

Chicago Bears: The Deep Ball Façade As a Chicago Bears truther, I gotta keep it 💯 There are many Bears fans posting “Amazing” out of the pocket deep ball highlights of Caleb Williams Obviously, we don’t see those kinds of throws everyday. It’s insane!! But deep ball playmaking isn’t new to Chicago. Nor is it the focal point of Ben Johnson’s offense. If the Bears are going to be great, we have to become more efficient from the pocket. Pass percentage must go up, time in pocket must come down. Living outside the pocket will hinder our ability to be efficient and to win a Super Bowl #1 Deep Ball was always there Justin Fields in 2023 had one of the most efficient deep balls in the league. Not only that, the majority of his deep balls came from the pocket which is what you want from your QB. As good as the Bears were as a whole last year, the deep ball was far more efficient in 2023. But living on the deep ball and living out the pocket comes with limitations. We have to focus on the fundamentals #2 Ben Johnson is the catalyst Similar to 2023, Bears offense in 2024 had explosive plays followed by inconsistent offense and inept situational football by the head coach Poor offensive line, poor offensive scheme, and inept head coach were the core issues. Ryan Poles thought QB was the main issue and then 2024 happened. We learned quick that it takes more than a talented QB to win football games. Ben Johnson has alleviated all of those concerns. He has made Bears offensive line the focal point! His scheme has been top of the league since he became OC in Detroit. And his situational football awareness far superior than Eberflus. Bears fans must recognize that Ben Johnson is the catalyst of the Bears offensive turnaround, and team success. Now give him what he needs! He wants 3 tight ends? Give it to him He wants more Luther Burden? Give it to him He wants more efficiency out of his QB? Let’s make that the focal point.. #3 Ben Johnson needs a point guard at QB Efficiency in the pocket, time to throw, and passing EPA are far more important to Ben Johnson’s offense than out of pocket deep balls. We need Caleb to be that killer still, but it’s the fundamentals that will allow Bears to take the next step. This offense doesn’t need a Michael Jordan at QB. Ben Johnson would much rather have an Isiah Thomas at QB because this offense has enough Bad Boys to get the job done. Feed the WRs! Get the ball out of your hands quicker! Allow deep ball to be the counter punch of the offense. #4 It’s all there.. The pre-snap awareness, post snap awareness, efficiency from pocket, and pass velocity all scream franchise QB. When you look at Caleb Williams in the pocket on short to intermediate passes, it looks effortless. The ball leaves his hand lightning quick, it’s placed where it’s supposed to be, and WR is able to make a play after the catch. We have to see more of this and it starts now. CW has to trust Ben Johnson’s offense and his WRs more. Conclusion: If we wanted a QB to scramble and throw deep balls, Justin Fields would still be a Chicago Bear What makes Caleb unique, is that he can be a hunter down the field but also has the upside to be a Drew Brees type of QB in the pocket. I rather see more clips of Caleb playing in rhythm and in the pocket , than deep bombs out the pocket. There will be struggles, but that’s ok. I much rather see our QB struggle making the right throws in OTAs than masking it with his gift as an out the pocket thrower.

“There’s going to be a point where it's going to be like, 'Ok well, we’ve got to play even better than this.' … the standard continues to rise.” Ben Johnson speaks on how the Bears can’t settle with their recent wins.

I love watching Merrimack's 2-3 zone and how they close out to the gap--not the player--on ball reversals. It is extremely disruptive to teams who think they can easily swing the ball against a zone and results in a ton of forced turnovers.

NEW: Eagles player Ben VanSumeren carted off the field with an injury and Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter kicked out of the game all in the first 6 seconds of the 2025 season. Carter apparently spit on Cowboys QB Dak Prescott. What a start to the season.

Ferris State HC Tony Annese - Mesh (QB/Ball Carrier) & Motion Fundamentals QB Mesh Fundamentals - Regardless of play, the first thing the QB needs to do to make sure he has a good mesh is stab the ball back off his hip towards the ball carrier as far as he can. - His arms should be straightened with his eyes at the HOK. - The ball should move with the back through his track. - If the ball is pulled the decision must be made by the time the ball gets to the QB's front hip. Ball Carrier Mesh Fundamentals - The potential ball carrier is the one that is responsible for his track. He needs to make sure his is at the mesh point that the QB is creating. - He must maintain a pocket that is firm enough to secure the ball but loose enough that the QB can pull the ball if the read is a pull read. - Do not deviate from the track until you fully clear the mesh. - If you do not get the ball then track away from the HOK and make him chase you. Motion Fundamentals - All of our motions start up at FULL SPEED! It is incredibly important to make every motion at full speed so the QB has a consistent timing. - The QB is responsible for sending the motion back on every play except for the triple option. - This allows us to control each motion easier. - Every Jet motion should be timed as if the jet back was getting the ball regardless of play. - The motion back will change his depth based on play. - This allows us to use motion with a multitude of schemes. - The motion stops at different spots on different plays and each perimeter player must understand where he should stop for each play.

On 3rd and 6, the Eagles motion Saquon Barkley out of the backfield and nobody moves with him tipping off zone coverage. I have no idea what this is supposed to be. Concepts and spacing like this should get guys fired. Hurts can't take a sack here, but there is nowhere to throw the ball so I guess I don't mind holding it and trying to extend on 3rd down outside FG range.

Check out this high level point guard ball handling workout I got in with Amare Witham I believe aside from actually playing basketball, a high level ball handling workout is the best form of realistic conditioning physically and mentally. #basketball #ballhandlingdrills

🚨 Use DIRECTIONAL RUNS to score EASY GOALS in FC26 To perform: 1. Press L1 to trigger the run 2. Flick the RS in the direction you want Levi de Weerd shows a perfect example here of how to attack space with the directional run here. He first sends his winger on a run in behind then player locks to drop the ST deep. His opponent reacts well by tracking the run but he also holds R1 to 2nd man press the ball, leaving space in behind the CB, where Levi will flick the RS for the winger to take that space inside. First time through ball with Vitinha and it’s an easy 1v1 with the GK. This also work really well when you trigger a central player like a ST or CAM to make a diagonal run into space out wide.

I love that the problem everyone has with the tush push this week, has absolutely nothing to do with the actually pushing portion. Like banning the tush push doesn’t even stop what they have an issue with from the play this last week. The Eagles still could have done exactly what they did last week with it being a regular QB sneak. Officials being more stringent on players aligning in the neutral zone and false starts is the only way to stop what everyone has an issue with. And I get it, there were at last a couple from the game that were too early, and should be called false starts. It is an extremely hard thing to officiate, and good players on both sides of the ball jump the snap and use the neutral zone to their advantage on multiple downs and plays throughout the game. Getting rid of the tush push will not stop the issue everyone is riled up about.

THIS IS DISGUSTING 1st play of the season from the 1 and the Giants try to run a gimmick play Set the tone for the rest of the game How about just out execute the other team, blow them off the ball or RUN A QB SNEAK?!?! Soft & gimmicky is what the Giants offense was in week 1

Caleb Williams: Possible NY Jets target.. The NY Jets are not in position to sign a FA QB or draft the top QBs coming out. I guarantee, they are looking at the trade market and would give up as much as two first rd picks for a QB like Caleb Williams. They may even throw in a player 👀 Has Caleb Williams done enough for the Bears to not trade him for two first rd picks? Are we winning because of QB or Ben Johnson? So be it…

This isn’t helping anyone, it’s enabling them. We have people in this world who know how to play the game really well and they’re taking advantage of their fellow Americans with crap like this. Most of us aren’t against helping out starving people. This is far from it.
