Bears trade for Center
Yuck. I sure hope this isn't their starter. Clear downgrade from Dalman.

I really hope the Bears didn't clear up over 30 million in cap space to not make some sort of splash signing/trade. They just lost 3 quality starters this week. If they lose out on Lindenbaum or Crosby, it's going to put immense pressure on Ryan Poles to nail the draft again to replace a lot of these guys. They still need 2 safeties on top of a C, LT, and pass rusher—and now WR3.

Super Meh Bowl
Drake Maye just finished off the worst stretch of games in playoff history for a quarterback to make it to a Superbowl. 21 sacks, 7 fumbles are both NFL records. The Patriots came into the game already having scored the fewest combined points of any SB team during their playoff run. Turns out, conventional wisdom won the day. Patriots were schedule merchants throughout the regular season and rode an extremely fortuitous stretch of injury luck in the playoffs all the way to a Superbowl they really had no business being in. Also, Will Cambell's arms are too freakin short to play LT.

Remainder of Playoffs
Drake Maye's 3 game playoff stretch: 15 sacks, 6 fumbles, 2 INT's, 55.8% completion %. He was horrible. Injury luck is the biggest reason they're in the Superbowl. Texans didn't have Nico Collins, and lost Dalton Schultz and their starting RB early in the previous game, and then, of course, Bo Nix misses the AFC Championship game. Pretty sure the Broncos score more than 7 points with him in the lineup... Must be nice. I hope they get their ass kicked in the Superbowl.

Yep. I'll keep saying it, but his insistence on every drop back needing to be a pass has cost his team so many yards throughout the season. It's also had a negative impact on his efficiency. Instead of an incompletion (or turnover), it would go down as a positive run. I often times wonder if internally he's having a battle with himself where he doesn't like running because he wants to prove to everyone he is a pocket passer. When you're in a gotta have it situation, you don't want to introduce more variable into a play by passing when you can just use your legs and scramble for what feels like could be 10-20 yards anytime Caleb wants to, but that's the problem: he doesn't.

Yeah, they haven't had a quick game all year. The quarterback is still too much in all or nothing mode. There were several times in this game he missed the RB in the flat for major yardage. He misses 5 yard out routes. It HAS to get better next year. Their lack of run game only highlights the necessity for having a quarterback that is efficient with the quick game to make up for it.

Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson both had their worst games as a professional. Caleb's down field accuracy cost them this game, as well as Ben Johnson's decision making in the redzone. Gut wrenching loss. Defense played their ass off.

Ben Johnson has been a disaster for the past month. 100% blew this game with his refusal to throw the ball inside the 10. Unbelievably bad coaching.

Once again Caleb lazily doesn't pick up a 1st down when he easily could, which forces a 3rd and short that the Bears predictably don't get. I can't believe how many blown opportunities this offense has had tonight. The Rams have been begging them to take over this game.

Caleb has been atrocious for 90% of this game. What the hell are these throws? He's becoming a turnover machine at the worst possible time.

These bounces the last two games have all gone against the Bears. That's the 3rd fumble the Rams have recovered of their own. They've been flirting with a turnover the entire game.

Coleston Loveland has had a terrible 1st half. That's maybe the 3rd drop already for him in this game. I think we're at at least 5 for the game, and it's only been 1 half. Everyone will shit on Caleb's completion % again, but this is another example of it not being completely his fault.

Looks like Kyler Gordon is back to being a difference maker!

Ben's playcalling on 4th downs is unbelievably bad. Can we please stop forcing the runs inside?? They haven't been working for at least a month with this team. The outside runs have worked all year! What are we doing??
