Chicago Bears News: Tyson Bagent is cleared, does that change tonight’s game?
Tyson Bagent has cleared concussion protocol and practiced Sunday, and is available to play in tonight’s Monday Night matchup of the Chicago Bears vs. the Philadelphia Eagles Can the Bears repeat last year’s run-game domination over the Eagles?

Chicago Bears Injury Update on Caleb Williams and Tyson Bagent
We got some good news and some bad news regarding the Chicago Bears quarterbacks today, so let’s get the bad news out of the way first. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Williams’ hamstring is more severe than initially thought, writing that it’s a “Grade 2 hamstring injury that doctors say could sideline him for three […]
Chicago Bears vs Philadelphia Eagles Week 3 Pregame Live Message Board
Good morning, Bears fans. Things are a touch more somber than compared to this time last week. Following up a record-setting Week 1 with a loss in Week 2 is disappointing enough as it is, but only scoring three points and losing your star quarterback (and possibly his backup) to injury is just an extra […]
Confidence in the Chicago Bears drop
The Chicago Bears suffered a tough loss last week in sloppy, wet conditions at Soldier Field, and the weather certainly slowed their high-powered offense. But Brian Flores’ blitz-happy Minnesota Vikings’ defense gave Chicago’s offense fits too. The Bears had their chances, and knowing the makeup of this team and head coach Ben Johnson, they’ll learn […]
Updated Bears vs. Eagles Injury Report: Tyson Bagent is Good to Go
The Chicago Bears and the Philadelphia Eagles meet up on Monday Night Football, and each team has revealed its final injury report for the game. As expected, the Bears will be without starting quarterback Caleb Williams, but the door is open for Tyson Bagent. Bagent entered concussion protocol earlier this week, but today he advanced […]
Chicago Bears vs. Philadelphia Eagles: Week 3 Players to Watch
The NFL season is always evolving. We enter week 3 with unique perspective and ample concern for many teams as injuries and unexpected poor performance have impacted the league across the board. In this weekly series, I’ll feature one player from the Chicago Bears opponent on each side of the ball who I think is […]
Bears Discussion: Eagles previews, 2027 NFL Draft LB prospects, DFS, and more
Going into Monday night, the Bears have a difficult matchup with the Eagles in Week 3. Though the Eagles have barely defeated inferior competition in each of their last two games, they’re still 2-0, which is worth celebrating in the NFL. Can the Bears pick up the win, even without Caleb Williams or Tyson Bagent […]

It’s week 3, and as always, we have some hallmark games from the past to uncover! 1.) 1985, Bears @ Vikings: McMahon’s Miracle in Minny The 1985 Bears season is filled with memorable moments, but one of the first came on a Thursday night in Minnesota. Jim McMahon was dealing with back spasms and an […]
Bears vs. Eagles: Keys for a Chicago victory
The Chicago Bears make their first primetime appearance of the season this week against the Philadelphia Eagles. Unfortunately, they will likely be starting their third-string quarterback and they’re home underdogs. Things aren’t looking great for the Bears, but they still have a lot going for them, too. Case Keenum might be the most capable third-stringer […]
Eagles at Bears Q&A: Can Ben Johnson best Vic Fangio?
The Chicago Bears welcome the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football for the first of several Chicago Bears primetime games in 2026. The Bears will almost certainly be without star quarterback Caleb Williams, and there isn’t even certainty whether it will be Tyson Bagent (concussion) or Case Keenum starting for the Bears on Monday. The […]
Do you trust Tyson Bagent or Case Keenum more against the Eagles?
The Chicago Bears have a big matchup on Monday Night Football, taking on the Philadelphia Eagles. If the Bears lose, they’ll fall below .500 for the first time in a year. It’s only game three, but obviously, everyone would like to see the Bears get back on track after a tough loss in week two […]
Chicago Bears Big Play Breakdowns from Week 2
Week 2 brought 8 more explosive plays. Wait – eight?! That can’t be right; let me go back and…yeah, eight. It’s honestly unbelievable the Chicago Bears didn’t win this one, but a fumble at the goal line and the Williams injury, combined with the constant rain, conspired to leave the Bears with only three points […]
Chicago Bears News: Looking like Case Keenam starts against Philadelphia Eagles
It’s looking more and more like Case Keenam will indeed be the Chicago Bears starter this Monday night against the Philadelphia Eagles at Soldier Field on the Lakefront in downton Chicago. Had the Bears practiced Thursday, neither Caleb Williams (hamstring) or Tyson Bagent (concussion protocol) would have been on the field. Share your thoughts in […]
Chicago Bears Discussion: vs. Eagles, Caleb Williams Injury Fallout, Ben Johnson, and more
What a strange emotional roller coaster it’s been as a Chicago Bears fan since Week 1. We went from watching one of the highest-scoring games in Bears history to Caleb Williams moving up the oddsmakers’ MVP lists, only to score 3 points against the Minnesota Vikings. The Williams injury was its own roller coaster, with […]
Bears vs. Eagles Injury Report: Six Players DNP

Rahimi: I’m still questioning Chicago Bears trading away Gervon Dexter
The latest Bears Banter has dropped! The Bears lose a slopfest to the Minnesota Vikings and lose Caleb Williams as well, but fortunately not for too long! To discuss the Vikings game, where the team is at after two weeks, the ridiculous criticism of Caleb Williams and how he handled the injury, and of course, […]
Week 3 NFL game preview: Chicago Bears vs. Philadelphia Eagles
The first primetime game for the 2026 Chicago Bears has lost much of its luster since the team will most likely be starting its third quarterback on Monday night. The Bears welcome the Philadelphia Eagles to Soldier Field in what should have been a great matchup of historical franchises with young quarterbacks dueling it out. […]

Chicago Bears Pass Protection Analysis on the Sacks Allowed vs Vikings
It’s not just the actual blitzers from Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores that get you; it’s also how they present themselves pre-snap to confuse a pass-blocking scheme and create favorable one-on-one matchups. All afternoon against the Chicago Bears, the Vikings showed multiple threats on the line of scrimmage; the Bears set their pass protection; […]
Ben Johnson confident in Bears’ QB room amid uncertainty heading into Week 3
After Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings left both Caleb Williams and Tyson Bagent dealing with injuries, the Chicago Bears enter Week 3 with uncertainty over which quarterback will suit up for Monday night’s matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Bears have not ruled out either Williams or Bagent for Monday night’s game, leaving the […]

Caleb Williams Injury and Vikings’ Defense Stifle Bears’ Offensive Outlook
We were promised a chess match between the Vikings Defensive Coordinator, Brian Flores, and Bears Head Coach/Offensive play-caller, Ben Johnson. What we were delivered was an all-around disappointment with rain pouring throughout, 12 total points, dropped passes, a goal line fumble, a blocked field goal, and one incredibly scary quarterback injury. After a 59-point debut, […]
Can the Eagles’ Jordan Davis keep the Bears’ 2 running backs in check?
The rain on Sunday has not stopped (figuratively) pouring down on the Chicago Bears, as entering Wednesday it would seem that their top two QBs, Caleb Williams and Tyson Bagent, could potentially be unavailable when they play host to the Eagles on Monday night. This means a few things — the Bears rushing attack is […]
Chicago Bears open the practice window for 2 players on the PUP List
The Chicago Bears have three players on the Physically Unable to Perform list (PUP): cornerback Kyler Gordon, linebacker Noah Sewell, and defensive lineman Shemar Turner. Today was the first day they could have their 21-day practice window open to ensure they could play in Week 5, which is the earliest a player starting the season […]
10 Thoughts on the NFL: Injuries suck
1. I’ve already said my piece on the toxic discussion about Caleb Williams’ emotional reaction to his hamstring injury, and I don’t feel like I have much more to add. That said, since I called out the idiotic former players and talking heads that talked trash about Williams being too “extra” about a hamstring strain, […]
