This is new territory for Bears fans who've struggled through years of Matt Eberflus and Matt Nagy and John Fox. The last time Chicago had a coach who was adored this much by his players was the prime Lovie Smith years. It was a big reason why Smith had so much success, including a Super Bowl berth.
Nothing about the Bears inspires confidence, but with our options low, the Week 10 choice becomes easier. The Bears aren't going to score 47 points against the Giants the way they did against the Bengals last week,
General manager Ryan Poles said Tryon-Shoyinka should be ready to play Sunday, and coach Ben Johnson likely will need all the pass rush help he can get against the New York Giants and rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, who has revolutionized the offense since taking the helm from Russell Wilson in Week 4.
Ben Johnson and the Bears have already matched last season's win total and host the lowly Giants Sunday at Soldier Field.
Bears superfan Jonathan Owens thought he was being interviewed on a video call as part of the NFL's Fan of the Year contest, but instead was surprised by rookie tight end Colston Loveland, who informed the former Naval Officer that he had won the contest.
New York Giants rookie QB Jaxson Dart is "excited" to play the historic Chicago Bears, and duel Caleb Williams in Chicago's winter weather.
The New York Giants defense has allowed at least 33 points in three straight weeks and will be looking to get back on track against the Chicago Bears, who have a top-10 offense overall, in rushing and in passing. Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has taken some steps in Year 2 in the NFL and Year 1 under new head coach Ben Johnson.
Poles added that he had great communication throughout with head coach Ben Johnson and defensive coordinator Dennis Allen in making the best possible move for the team, now and for the future. Being able to hold on to high draft picks was a valued priority for the team and the Bears were able to do that while coming away with a 26-year-old pass rusher with some upside.
