13 AUG 2024 · The Chicago Bears dominated the Buffalo Bills in Caleb Williams' first preseason game as a rookie. Williams shined in this performance that only led to six points.
Rob and Justin break down his plays as they go through his All-22 film. Even his bad plays were good.
Caleb Williams wasn't the only one who played well for the Chicago Bears. Shane Waldron's system showcased Khalil Herbert, DJ Moore, Cole Kmet and even Velus Jones! The offensive line was dominant! On the defensive side of the ball, things looked just as good.Â
As Justin says, "no Sweat...no sweat!" Austin Booker was dominant and gives this team hope for what he can bring as a rookie, rotational player.

Chicago Bears give DJ Moore a massive 4-year contract extension | What does this mean for the Bears?
31 JUL 2024 · We have been talking about how now was the time to strike regarding a DJ Moore extension and as always, Ryan Poles took our advice. The Chicago Bears have given DJ Moore a four-year contract extension worth $110 million and $82.6 million in guaranteed money.
Rob and Justin discuss what the contract means for the Bears as they break down the contract details compared to where the rest of the league is at now and how this deal is very team-friendly.
Ryan Poles does it again and is clearly winning the offseason once again. Thank you to the Carolina Panthers for a true WR1 and allowing Caleb Williams to develop with Moore for his entire rookie contract. Not to mention one year with Keenan Allen and 5 years with fellow rookie, Rome Odunze.Â

17 MAY 2024 · The NFL has officially released schedules for the 2024 season. The Chicago Bears schedule release video was fantastic - mad props!
There are plenty of weird quirks with the Bears' schedule -- both good and bad. There isn't a perfect schedule, but did the NFL do the Chicago Bears dirty or did they help Caleb Williams out?
Speaking of Caleb Williams...he looked great in the 30-second video clips floating around social media. Rome Odunze looked good too despite missing time with hamstring tightness.
Rob's Rants comes back for a short minute to talk about the Bears heading to London and the misconception that the organization put out there for season ticket holders.
Most importantly though, will the Chicago Bears win the division? Who knows. Does the schedule guarantee this team makes the playoffs? Rob and Justin go game-by-game giving their predictions along with their final record prediction.

29 APR 2024 · The 2024 NFL Draft has come to a close. The Chicago Bears walked away with one of the best on-paper drafts we have ever seen in Chicago. Ryan Poles is proving that he is the best general manager in Bears history.
After fleecing the Carolina Panthers, the Bears finish with the first pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. That pick ended up becoming one of the best quarterback prospects I have ever seen. Poles wasn't done though, he also had the ninth pick in the draft and he found a way to pair Williams with one of the top wide receiver prospects in Rome Odunze.
The Bears were not done there though. They snagged the top punter prospect in the draft when they selected Iowa punter Tory Taylor. The Chicago Bears found their swing tackle who could give left tackle Braxton Jones some true competition. Finally, Poles and his staff moved back up into the fifth round to add much-needed defensive line help in edge rusher Austin Booker.
Overall, the Chicago Bears dominated the 2024 NFL Draft. They walked away with some elite talent while also using draft capital to add guys like Montez Sweat, Keenan Allen and Ryan Bates.Â
This is a new era on offense for a Chicago Bears team that hasn't been dominant on offense throughout the current air-it-out playing style. We are expecting Caleb Williams to destroy the current franchise rookie quarterback records while also pushing this team into a legit playoff hunt. Not to mention the expectation of future Super Bowls.

25 APR 2024 · The Chicago Bears are about to wow fans despite recent stadium concerns. Caleb Williams will be selected first overall but who will the team take with the ninth pick in the draft?
A consensus of 23 NFL and Draft analysts has the team taking Rome Odunze over anyone else, but a few think it could be Jared Verse, Olu Fashanu, Dallas Turner, Marvin Harrison, or Malik Nabers.Â
Who is right and who is wrong?
Caleb Williams had a shocking revelation when talking to the media and listed four players he'd like the Chicago Bears to draft at ninth overall. Three of them were obvious but hearing the fourth name and why he wanted him probably has many fans second-guessing things. He definitely did not say, Byron Murphy.

9 APR 2024 · The 2024 NFL Draft is nearly here. The Chicago Bears seem zeroed in on Caleb Williams with the first pick in the draft. With the ninth pick in the draft, Ryan Poles has plenty of options. The question is, which draft strategy will be best for the Bears? Which players make the most sense for the Bears?
Rob and Justin bring you three different draft strategies that Ryan Poles could use at the end of the month. They also dive into which players make the most sense for the Chicago Bears while proving that you cannot be locked into only one strategy. The Bears have needs at wide receiver, offensive line, defensive end and safety. Defensive tackle could be another area that the Chicago Bears focus on.
However, with only four picks in the draft, Ryan Poles will need to be at the top of his game to come away from the draft with every hole filled. Are there any must-have players in this draft outside of Malik Nabers, Rome Odunze, Joe Alt and Marvin Harrison, Jr.? What about the top edge rushers? Do you prefer Jared Verse, Dallas Turner, Laiatu Latu or Chop Robinson?
Which of the 3 mock drafts did you prefer? If you didn't fully agree with the players we picked, who would you prefer to see taken instead? We used the Pro Football Focus mock draft simulator, but the actual draft will likely look very different in certain areas.

18 MAR 2024 · It finally happened. The Chicago Bears traded Justin Fields. It took longer than expected and the return seems less than ideal. Was it truly the worst move of Ryan Poles' career as the Bears' general manager?
Rob, Justin and special guest Bob discuss the Fields trade. They weigh in on the compensation and also elaborate on how the move from Chicago to Pittsburgh could affect Fields' career.
The Chicago Bears have been busy in free agency also. They traded for Keenan Allen, while also signing D'Andre Swift, Kevin Byard, Jonathan Owens and Gerald Everett. Ryan Poles also brought in a new center in Coleman Shelton.
The roster has been improved, but what will the Chicago Bears do in the 2024 NFL Draft now that they only have four picks? Good thing those draft picks are early and they can add more talent while also adding more draft capital. The obvious direction is Caleb Williams at first overall.

4 MAR 2024 · The 2024 NFL Combine has come to a close. Many thought Justin Fields would be traded by now. That isn't the case, but it does seem like it is just a matter of time as multiple reports have the Chicago Bears trading Fields and drafting Caleb Williams or another high-end quarterback prospect.
Rob and Justin put their GM hats on and ran a full seven-round mock draft. After trading Justin Fields to the Atlanta Falcons, the guys settled on Caleb Williams with the first-overall pick. Multiple trades later and Ryan Poles and the Chicago Bears have some serious ammunition to use at the top of the draft.
In fact, they end up with five picks in the top 55. How did you like the outcome of the 2024 NFL Draft? Personally, I am not a fan of the outcome. Hopefully, after free agency, we will have an even better idea of what Ryan Poles will have in his back pocket when entering the 2024 NFL Draft and what the Bears will need.

22 FEB 2024 · We are less than a month away from the start of free agency. In this mock offseason, the Chicago Bears find a way to bring back Jaylon Johnson before he explores free agency. It might be on the franchise tag but a deal is on the horizon.
Rob, Justin, and Bob rank every position on the Chicago Bears roster and determine which areas are considered must-fill positions in either free agency, the 2024 NFL Draft, or both.
Next, the guys put their Ryan Poles hats on and become the general manager of the Bears in a mock free-agency period. Although big names are important and discussed, how many are realistic options for this team? After cutting Eddie Jackson and Cody Whitehair, the Chicago Bears have the third-most salary cap space to work with at roughly $70 million.
