Colin Cowherd: “You could say the Bears are just ‘beating bad teams’... I know they’ve just beaten the Titans, Carolina, a short-handed LA Rams team, and the dysfunctional Jags, but for the first time in my life I look at the Bears and say ‘MAN, WHAT A DEEP AND TALENTED OFFENSIVE ROSTER. WHAT A STUD THEY HAVE AT QUARTERBACK FOR THE NEXT 15 YEARS!’... That I have never said in my life. Three receivers I like, an excellent tight end, a clever running back, the o-line is fine – it's not Detroit or Atlanta, but it’s fine, and Caleb Williams is getting better every week. He’s gone from frenetic to foundational.
If you go back, Caleb’s passer rating was 55, two weeks later it was 80, a week after that it was 106, a week after that it was 126, and this week it was 124. He’s found his footing. Reckless to in control. Questions to confident.
My biggest concern is not the Bears, it’s the division. Minnesota looks like they can hoist a trophy, Jordan Love is ready to roll, and Detroit has the best offensive line, two capable running backs, a star receiver, a coach in Dan Campbell that the team loves, and Jared Goff has been to Super Bowls.
For years and years the Bears’ liabilities were the front office and the coaches. You can bang on Matt Eberflus but he’s good on his side of the ball. They have the franchise quarterback, they run a modern offense, they’ve got multiple weapons, and some are young and going to be around awhile. They made a smart move to get DJ Moore and they nailed the quarterback pick. This is what the good teams in the AFC like Kansas City, Baltimore, Buffalo, and Houston do – they got their quarterback right.
You gotta give the GM Ryan Poles credit. For years this was a defensive culture like Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh still can't get out of its own way and spends all its money on defense. Ryan Poles said he’s going to be spending his money on offense because that’s where the league is going, and he was right. They got DJ Moore, Keenan Allen, Rome Odunze, a second tight end, and Swift the running back. This is a really big-time offensive group. It’s like ‘WHOA!’... They’ve got dudes everywhere and this team is for real. You can open up the entire playbook because Caleb is so electric and so dynamic. You’ve got yourself a stud.”
