With Justin Fields officially traded, it feels like the Chicago Bears are at the dawning of a new age. That means change — some good, some bad, and a whole lot of ‘New’. That means new additions around DBB as well — Jeff & I will be hosting a show we’re calling Saturday Spaces (creative, I know) that you can expect weekly starting the weekend after Easter. The two of us recorded similar shows throughout this last Bears season, and I think they turned out well. I recorded this last weekend’s show for your listening pleasure — check it out at the link below and let me know what you think. h ..read more

Audibles From the Long Snapper: The Post-Free Agency (First Wave) Edition

NOTE: Robert and I intended to start doing our weekly Spaces sessions on Twitter a few weeks back, but I have been battling one of the worst bronchial infections of my life. I’m finally returning to normal existence, and we’ll be live this Saturday (3/23) at 1 PM ET. A lot to talk about.  Thoughts on what has transpired in the early days of free agency, starting in Chicago. Do I believe Ryan Poles had second or third-round offers on the table for Justin Fields? No, I do not. If you have followed my commentary on the Fields trade market, you know that I’ve been consistent in my reporting ..read more

The Bears showed out in force for Caleb Williams’ USC Pro Day. Their contingent included Ryan Poles, Matt Eberflus, Ian Cunningham, Shane Waldron, and even Chicago’s newest WR… Keenan Allen showed up to USC’s Pro Day in some Bears gear to watch Caleb Williams pic.twitter.com/AHM5QWg44h — Barstool Chicago (@barstoolchicago) March 20, 2024 What does it all mean? Probably what it looks like — Chicago is gearing up to select Williams #1 overall in late April. And just in case the Bears had any concerns, Williams left the contingent without anything to be concerned about on the field. Each of Cal ..read more

See you later this evening for tonight’s stream. Dreaming: Double slant with Keenan Allen against single high coverage. LB and NCB squeeze Keenan, Caleb pushes to DJ Moore. Hits him in stride. Suddenly one of the league’s most dangerous YAC threats is 1 on 1 with the Safety at full speed. Inject it into my veins. — Robert Schmitz (@robertkschmitz) March 18, 2024 Your Turn: How are you feeling today ..read more

If you’re reading this blog, you know what happened this weekend. The 11th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft was traded from Chicago to Pittsburgh on Saturday for a 4th round conditional pick in next year’s draft. The #Bears are trading QB Justin Fields to the #Steelers, sources say. A new QB into the competition. pic.twitter.com/hGQpbVwoRA — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 16, 2024 There will be a new QB in Chicago, and by all accounts that will be Caleb Williams. Williams will immediately walk into one of the best supporting casts that a #1 pick has had in recent memory. It’s an exciting time to ..read more

First Week of Free Agency Reveals Continued Prudence, Patience of Poles

He doesn’t really care about you, Mr. Meatball. He doesn’t care about your voracious desire for big-ticket free agent acquisitions. He doesn’t care about your “we want Fields” chants on a blustery Sunday afternoon at Soldier Field. You wouldn’t pay a running back? He will. You wouldn’t pay an off-ball linebacker? He’ll pay two. You’re obsessed with the nonsense that has come to be called “good process.” He’s concerned with only one process: his. Ryan Poles has a stubborn vision for how he intends to build the Chicago Bears into a contender and that stubbornness is why it feels like the Bears ..read more

6-Time Pro Bowler Keenan Allen Is Now A Chicago Bear

Late last night, the Chicago Bears acquired Chargers all-star WR Keenan Allen for their 4th round pick (#110) in the 2024 NFL Draft. I’ve got some quick thoughts on the move: Turns out that hole in the Bears’ cap created from Jaylon Johnson & D’Andre Swift’s deals had a purpose Obviously this is a move focused on 2024, but I don’t mind the emphasis on next season. 2024 is a massive year for the entire Bears’ organization — in all likelihood, they’ll attempt to develop a rookie QB while competing for a playoff spot. If, therefore, the biggest critique of this move is that Chicago paid too ..read more
