It's interesting because the Bears could win their next two games and still miss the playoffs if they lose to SF and DET. Beating CLE or GB + SF and DET guarantees you a playoff spot because you'd win the tiebreaker against the 49'ers if you both finish with 12 wins. With 11, you'd need them to lose to SEA in that last game, which would be so terrifying to have to sit through. Either way, this is quickly becoming the most important game left on the Bears schedule, especially if Detroit beats the Rams this week.

It won't be a discussion again until next year. Winning always buys you time. What they do in the off-season with the QB room will tell you a lot about how they view Caleb. I don't think he's in any danger right now to where the Bears are going to start looking into drafting or acquiring his replacement.

Yeah. Watching that replay again, I really think you just have to tip your cap to the Packers for defending that really well. Kmet was open earlier in the progression, but assuming he's not the first read, I just don't see a feasible way Caleb could have gotten that out much earlier, and even if he did, it still would have been an incredibly difficult throw to make.

Groin. I suspect he's going to be out for the year. Can't get rid of him with that contract, unfortunately. It is ironic how he all of a sudden misses the most games of his career after signing the extension. If I remember correctly, he didn't show up for most of the voluntary OTA's in the off-season. Based on the injuries, I have my doubts as to how much hard work he put into his body to be ready for a long season.

I didn't hate the playcall, but Caleb was the one who screwed it up by not just running for the first down when he had the angle. There were at least 3 or 4 of those kinds of plays in the 2nd half where he constantly made the wrong decision on when to run and when to throw. He's just not very smart, situationally.
