They need the practice, low risk if they don't get it.

Shelton is also not playing terrible. 5 TDs is nice. The defense needs to shut this thing down and not let any garbage time TDs. I hate those.

Damn Moore, that would've put Williams over 300 yards passing. Way too many drops today.

Not bad! First Half Today: Williams 11-15, 73.3%, 200 yds, 13.3 Y/A, 2 TD, 0 INT, 154.9 Rating

Tremble led with this helmet, should be a penalty too. Great turnover, Brisker laying wood. Dexter is everywhere.

That was bad. Just go heavy with Doug Kramer as a lead blocker. Not rocket science.

If you are running up the middle on 4th Down, why not have a lead blocker? Seriously.

I love the addition of Byard, Jackson was such a liability the last few years. Byard is so sound, love it.

Yeah, too many playmakers not to score a lot.

and he still is improving

I know they say they can't do uptempo all the time, but I can't think of a drive they went uptempo on and didn't score. It feels like every time they do, they score.

Boom Williams to Moore TD. Tie game.

Brisker out of position, leaves the middle of the field wide open. Unbelievable.

Jones and Wright have regressed. That is on coaching, Morgan needs to go.

Waldron's scripted plays are terrible. I called the first two plays, Allen in motion, zone, will throw to Allen. Almost intercepted. 2nd play, gonna be a run for sure. 3rd play, everyone running the same depth of route, no one open, sack.

Good teams beat the teams they are supposed to beat. Losing at home, to a Carolina team that is banged up would be a terrible loss. It's a home game, conference game, that you are favored in. This is a must-win. They can't take a long flight on Monday to Europe with a bad loss in their mouths.

No way are they going back. Williams is already at QB301, he is using the entire field, going thru progressions, AND making changes at the LOS. I thought this was crazy in PIT. During the Steelers press conference, Fields literally said he will not change the play at the LOS. WOW. That is why Daniels is having some early success being super efficient using a college-style offense. However, the defense always adjusts. Look at Kyler and Kingsbury in AZ. It looked amazing for about a year and a half, but fell off so bad they fired Kingsbury. Same with Chip Kelly in PHI. Kelly got 2 years, then got fired in season in his 3rd. The best option is to mix it up IMO.

I still can't believe JAX is the only winless team, and there is only one undefeated team left after 4 weeks. Parity is really working this season, probably due to all the injuries. It will be interesting to see which 3-loss team hits 1-4 this weekend, because coming back from that big of a hole is pretty much insurmountable. JAX at 0-4 already seems to be there and are probably one more loss away from firing their HC.

Good stuff. I feel like this is going to be Caleb's coming out party game, 300+ yards, multiple TDs, no picks, offense humming. Two 300-yard passing games in your first 5 games as a rookie would be impressive. Daniels' high is 254 and that is the only game he has over 250.

If the Bears traded a 4th for Allen, and if they got a later 4th from a team like KC, that would be a net negative for how little they got out of him. Also, if he is going to command a decent salary and contract in 2025, due to comp picks, he may be one you keep to have that comp pick leverage. Like compared to Herbert, who may not only get a lower offer, getting a pick for him now may be better. Regardless, you know Poles is going to be active at the deadline again this year.

There is another component to this, which are the comp picks. If they know they are not resigning him, thus no new contract, and they know the market for RBs, if the comp pick formula won't even cancel out another acquisition, then it is better to get something for him vs nothing. There is definitely some chess involved here. Far too often do the Bears let dudes walk, then got crushed by the comp pick formula and get nothing for them. You can tell Poles plays the game because of how he has handled certain transactions.

What is a great sign is that he is 6th in Intended Air Yards at 8.4 but is 3rd to last in Aggressiveness (Jackson and Mahomes are 1-2). So he is not throwing risky passes but is still throwing balls well past the LOS.

Yeah, great find, I did hear that. https://wgntv.com/sports/bears-report/finding-that-flow-caleb-williams-is-working-to-find-ways-to-win-week-to-week/#:~:text=Williams didn't commit a,3 against the Indianapolis Colts. His performance is even more impressive considering he was under MORE pressure than against the Colts, and still posted the best QB Rating under pressure in the NFL for Week 4.

Panthers listed 19 players on their injury report. That team is beat up, the Bears need to go for the juggler and destroy this team. Fly to Europe on Monday after a great game. The flight will be so much better with a dominating win. They will have all backup LBs and some of their O-Line may be out or limited. Bears by 20!

Sorry, #1 seeds in the conferences, you are correct. I was thinking that DET beat the last unbeaten team in the NFC, SEA.
