Chicago Bears and Philadelphia Eagles: Who Wins and Why for Week 3 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bears coach Ben Johnson sounded a bit like someone who cares too much about what media/fans/experts say this past week as preparations for facing the Philadelphia Eagles began. Losing the way the Bears did to Minnesota, without scoring a touchdown one week after a 59-point explosion, will do that sort of thing. “Well it's opportunity is the way I see it," Johnson said. "I think our guys see it as that as well. "One of those things that everyone outside of the building I'm sure is writing us off
Case Keenum Would Like Nothing Better Than a 'Payback' Performance (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The chance to play Monday night against the Philadelphia Eagles for third-string quarterback Case Keenum represents a chance to pay back Bears coach Ben Johnson for enriching his career and extending it. Keenum, who seems a bit touchy when reporters mention he is 38 years old, admits he'll be nervous if he starts Monday night against the Eagles. And he does use the word "if," even though he's the only quarterback among the top three who is even practicing at the moment due to Caleb Williams' ham
Rust Is the Problem for Bears With Case Keenum and Not the Mileage (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It's not so much age working against Case Keenum when he does as expected by starting for coach Ben Johnson and the Bears Monday night against the Philadelphia Eagles. Being 38 years old like Keenum doesn't even make him the oldest Bears quarterback to start a game. Todd Collins' one forgettable start for the Bears came at age 39 in 2010, a win over Carolina when he was yanked late following an interception in favor of Caleb Hanie after throwing for a whopping 32 yards. Being 38 doesn't seem to
What the Past Says About Bears' Chances When Starting a Backup QB (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Starting a different quarterback is a little like transplanting an organ. It's a foreign substance introduced to the body and might be rejected. Then again, it's what the team needs and they must adjust. The Bears most likely will be adjusting this week to a different quarterback taking snaps, because when a quarterback is week to week due to injury and will not practice during the week as Ben Johnson said Caleb Williams won't, the likelihood is the backup plays. The only question now is which o
Even Vikings Coach Noted Poor Rookie Bears Special Teams Play (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ben Johnson probably didn't need the help of Vikings coach Kevin McConnell but he received it just the same. While talking with Vikings reporters on Monday after their big 9-3 win over the Bears, McConnell was praising his special teams players for handling the day-long rain well at Soldier Field. It was a commendable performance by specific players considering how the Vikings play indoors at home and in the majority of their games. "Just watching the tape, there were some things just to highlig
