This will be discussed in the Bears Manual, but the discussion around Caleb's final INT is starving for context. The Bears have called this specific play a handful of times. It is part of their vast Intermediate Cross family. The route is designed to break at 10 yards, with... an aiming point of about 18 yards on the opposite numbers. The three examples here show the route breaking much earlier than Moore broke. Williams' footwork last night also matches the timing of an Intermediate Cross The Bears do carry a deeper Cross, part of the "Latch" family. The also carry a Deep Over. These three families of concepts look similar, but the context of studying Johnson's offense in detail can piece the puzzle together. *The 2025 Chicago Bears Complete Offensive Manual should be out end of this week/early next week.show more

You can’t blame Caleb Williams for the INT in OT….. the Bears have the absolute perfect play called The lack of effort by #2 is really telling….you can’t give up on this route like this. #DaBears

DJ Moore was a top 5 WR in 2023 He was #6 in yards in the entire NFL ( 1364 yards) He has averaged at least 1k in yards for the majority of his career even with poor QB play So answer me this… Why did he just have lowest yardage in his career in a Ben Johnson offense?! The truth is, DJ Moore has been the Chicago Bears best player offensively since he has arrived The truth is, DJ Moore is not being utilized properly by coaching or by QB The truth is, Justin Fields and DJ Moore had a special connection on the football field that Caleb Williams can’t replicate And for that… Bears fans will scapegoat Moore Williams is the Bears QB and the future is bright But, It is not right how this fanbase and media is treating Moore He deserves better.. They will rid this team of all Justin Fields closest teammates So be it..

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.

This is Soldier Field in Chicago. Imagine being known as the Governor and Mayor who lost the Bears. 😳 The Bears need to be in Chicago and that field that Sweetness, Sayers, Ditka and Butkus blessed, should be protected by the historical society. The Bears made a deal with the city. The Bears paid their portion, Chicago did not. This is a Chicago screw up. 💯 If they do indeed move to Indiana, welcome to Indiana! The Bears will generate a ton of money for the state of Indiana. 👉 Stop voting Blue. 👈 Even if you aren’t a fan of the Chicago Bears, do you think they should leave Chicago and Illinois? Would it feel right to you? Even if you don’t watch football anymore, just knowing the Bears aren’t playing at Soldier Field, would that sound right to you?

A little girl brings a Crucifix to a couple who are getting married—a beautiful marriage tradition. When the bride and groom go to the church to be married, they carry a Crucifix with them. The priest blesses the Crucifix, and instead of saying that they have found the ideal partner with whom to share their lives, he exclaims, “You have found your Cross! It is a Cross to love, to carry with you—a Cross that is not to be thrown off, but rather cherished.” When they exchange their marital vows, the bride places her right hand on the Crucifix, and the groom places his right hand over hers. Both are bound together and united to the Cross. The priest covers their hands with his stole while they pronounce their promises to love one another in good times and in bad, proclaiming their vows to be faithful according to the rites of the Church. Then, they first kiss the Cross—not each other. If one abandons the other, they abandon Christ on the Cross. They lose Jesus! After the wedding, the newlyweds cross the threshold of their home to enthrone that same Crucifix in a place of honor. It becomes the reference point of their lives and the center of family prayer, for the young couple believes deeply that the family is born of the Cross. Video: Júlia Carvalho

Dan Orlovsky said the Bears least proven WR room in the NFL bc last year they had nobody top 70 in catches or top 50 in yards. He said the group is gonna have to improve or the Bears offense isn’t gonna be what people expect it to be. I think Dan Orlovsky does a great job, but this is where the spreadsheet misses the football. Yes, the Bears WR room is young. Using raw career catches and yards to call it a weakness is shortsighted. Rome Odunze missed 5 games and still finished with 44 catches 661 yards and six TDs. Luther Burden missed 2 games but if you watched the Bears you know his production was the tale of two seasons. He went from 24.4 YPG in his first 7 games to 60.1 over his final 8 which is a 1,022-yard pace. He also finished 3rd in the league in yards per route run. And if we’re evaluating weapons leaving out Colston Loveland is unfair. From Week 9 on, he had 47 catches 597 yards and 6 TDs. Those 597 yards ranked 2nd among all TEs. He then added 193 yards in 2 playoff games. They might be inexperienced but they’re not lacking talent. I think the pass-catching group as a whole is a strength of this roster. #DaBears #Bears
