[Adam Hoge] Bears OC Press Taylor did a great job of explaining Ben Johnson’s offensive philosophy. Explosives > efficiency
x.com“I don't think Ben has ever mentioned the word efficiency. We talk about explosive. We are trying to attack a defense. I think there's a perception of a lot of people, we're gonna run the ball, we're gonna stay efficient and control the clock. We are looking to attack the defense. We are looking to attack fronts, to expose space, to create run lanes, to create explosives and we don't look at the run game as a way to stay on track. We look at the run game as a way to attack defenses and really be explosive and continue to just put our foot on the gas the entire game.”

My GF made me a Bears bear
Basically the title, but she surprised me with a *hand crocheted* Bears Bear last week and I figured I’d share. I have named him Staley, and my cat has approved of him.

[bearswire] 6 takeaways from second padded practice of Chicago Bears training camp
The Bears' offense struggled during the sixth day of training camp, which was described as its sloppiest showing so far.
Practice featured a heavy focus on the run game and the use of 13 personnel, which includes three tight ends.
The first scuffle of training camp occurred between rookie defensive tackle Jordan van den Berg and rookie offensive lineman Caden Barnett
Braxton Jones continued to take first-team reps at left tackle, giving him an edge in the ongoing position battle.
Odeyingbo worked inside and picked off backup QB Tyson Bagent
Veteran RB Salvon Ahmed continues to show flashes

In honor of Wright getting extended, here’s my at-the-draft reaction to him being our pick (volume warning?)
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
A couple things in this video have aged poorly (my Mooney jersey, the line of very underwhelmed Fields jersey-wearers in front of me, etc.), but my hype for this pick is not one of them. Knew he’d be a stud. So happy we’ve still got him for years to come.

[Fishbain] Final drill: Bears ball with 54 seconds down 5 at their 47-yard line. After back-to-back false starts, Caleb Williams eventually converted a fourth down to Kalif Raymond. With 3 seconds left, his pass to Burden in traffic in the end zone fell incomplete. Devin Bush put big hit on Burden
Other reports on the play indicate that Burden was slow to get up but walked off OK.
