The Chicago Bears didn’t have the start to their season that they were hoping for against the Minnesota Vikings, starting 0-1. The CHGO Bears crew has slept on it, and now we try to find where things went wrong. One thing that looked great was the scripted plays on the opening drive. Does Ben Johnson have something he can build on with Caleb Williams? Later, Professor Briggs is back with his grades for the offense, defense, special teams and coaching. Join Adam Hoge, Mark Carman and Lance Briggs on the CHGO Bears Podcast.

The Chicago Bears started off HOT on the first drive but finished cold as ice in the 4th quarter. Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson couldn’t find their rhythm and JJ McCarthy, Kevin O’Connell took full advantage with 3 TDs in the 4th quarter. The defense held serve for 3 quarters without Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon but couldn’t finish in the 4th. A lot to cover, join Lance Briggs, Jerry Azumah and Greg Braggs Jr on the Brick x Brick AFTERSHOW Podcast with CHGO Bears.
