00:00And I actually do want to ask you about this, Joe.
00:02I know the game is tomorrow, but we spent some time on Daniels.
00:05We spent some time on Dart.
00:06We didn't talk a ton about Taylor Williams.
00:08And that updated timeline being three to four weeks with the hamstring,
00:13you know, they kind of were being coy a little bit.
00:15Oh, could he play Monday?
00:16It's like, no, but actually he's out a month here.
00:20Where are you at on – I mean, you're talking about two different games, huh?
00:2659 in week one, three points in week two.
00:28It's not like Caleb got hurt in the first quarter.
00:30Where are you just at on the Chicago Bears?
00:34Well, look, last week was in-division game with horrible weather,
00:39very aggressive defense.
00:40They want to blitz as soon as they get off the plane, the Minnesota Vikings.
00:42And I respect that.
00:43I love the Brian Flores defense.
00:44I'm all about it.
00:45Put pressure on the quarterback.
00:46But it's circumstantial, right?
00:48So you kind of take it and throw it away.
00:49I don't think they're as good as they were in week one.
00:51I don't think they're as bad as they were in week two.
00:54And I also don't think the pieces around them are as inept necessarily
00:57as a lot of people were freaking out.
00:58We'll have Colson Loveland and Luther Burden and Roma Dunze.
01:01And I understand the freakout.
01:02We're in week three.
01:03And right now everyone's terrified to start those guys.
01:06I'm oddly optimistic about Tyson Bajant.
01:10I think Tyson Bajant is very capable of running this offense from what I've seen
01:13in bits and pieces of him in the last two years in preseason,
01:17what I saw out of him in college.
01:18I think Tyson Bajant is a guy who's going to sit in the pocket,
01:21work on timing, which is really what Ben Johnson offenses are about.
01:25I mean, Jared Goff was kind of like cast aside.
01:27People forget by the time he got to Detroit, like they didn't want him.
01:30Turns out if you put a pocket passer in a timing situation
01:32with good weapons around him, Ben Johnson offense is very good.
01:36So I think that the Bears plus four and a half is a cover for me.
01:40I love this number, especially in a prime time,
01:42especially with the Eagles going on the road.
01:44Eagles didn't look great last week either against Tennessee.
01:46I know it was 150 degrees in the field.
01:48I get it.
01:49I want to give them a little bit of grace.
01:51But when Doc talks about how healthy that team is,
01:53also you talk about like what this team is right now
01:56and trying to find their identity.
01:58I would not be surprised if the Bears won outright,
02:00but I really like them to cover in this four and a half.
02:03I really think that that is very much in play.
02:05And I think we get the loved ones and the burdens of the world
02:07starting to look like themselves.
02:09And he got that extra day of practice for Bayesian two
02:11after he's cleared protocol, which is also very important.
02:14It's just on the Bears.
02:15I think there's a very weird football team right now
02:21because there was a moment where there was like,
02:24oh, is the Caleb injury going to be Jackson Dart, right?
02:27And since it's not, we're like, oh, cool.
02:30Even if they beat the Philadelphia Eagles with Tyson Bajan,
02:34it's still a month of backup quarterback play.
02:38And people will do what they always do.
02:40Oh, then it's the Jets.
02:41Then it's the Packers.
02:43Then it's the Falcons.
02:44Yep, you wish you had Caleb for those games because those are supposed to be wins.
02:47And instead, you're going to back up quarterback out there.
02:51And also, and maybe it's more of a fantasy thing than a real-life thing,
02:55but what is going on with the pass catchers?
02:59Colson Loveland looked like the next Travis Kelsey.
03:03I'm sometimes watching games.
03:04I think he's the third tight end on the Bears.
03:06Luther Burden and Roman Dunzey were banged up in the offseason.
03:08Like, is that kind of why Khalif Raymond's being Khalif Raymond?
03:11I just think they're a very odd team right now.
03:15I think we'll learn a little bit on Monday night.
03:17I think it's going to be tough, though, to get a super great read
03:20because this team's going to have backup quarterback play for a while.
03:25Let's go to the next one, guys.
03:25Let's go to the gym.
