I started the season skeptical of Johnson. After the bye week when he adjusted and made the Bears focus more on the run game I became more of a believer in his ability to coach properly. I said this season reminds me of 2018 2.0 but what’s missing (so far) are the bone headed challenges, timeouts and other head scratching play calls that Nagy was notorious for, even that year. Today was a master class of play calling. Johnson went in knowing the weather would be a factor and kept Williams in the ‘game manager’ setting and didn’t ask him to make splash plays. Fortunately he didn’t have to. The running game and its blocking has advanced to a level we haven’t seen in many decades. This is really cool. I can say confidently; “In Ben I trust”.

Love this look. Lol.

I spoke too soon! Lol.

Seems fitting both TDs are of the rushing variety.

Grew up watching lots of Nebraska football. You’re absolutely right. This was their bread and butter back in the day. All they need to do now is keep running the ball.

How was that NOT DPi?

Loveland still playing clutch. And Bears running at will.

Nashon Wright with a redemption play during the fu*#ing Tush Push. Gawd I hate that play.

Screen but still… yeah.

🎶 Wheels on the bus are coming off, coming off…🎵

AJ Brown is the perfect prototypical big man receiver. Nothing but hands on that TD catch. Bears let the Eagles stay in the game yet lead by 1. Time to get some good plays in and hope we don’t have to pass a lot in the 4th….against the wind.

Swift has 11 for 93 (avg just under 9 per carry) so why not pass? Lol.

Weather still a factor (me thinks). Explains why Hurts’ ball looked a little ducky on the INT. Although he’s thrown a few others already.

“OLD MAN BYARD” strikes again!

Besides the weather factor seems like a lot of players slipping and stumbling (mostly bears). Good thing Eagles are out of sync…so far.
