Forward Progress - A Chicago Bears Podcast

Josh Jacobs turned a touchdown celebration into a mess of questions, and Dan Bernstein and Matt Abbatacola are not buying the explanation.

Bernstein and Abbatacola break down the celebration itself, Jacobs' claim that it was an homage to Break Every Chain, a modern Gospel song, and why the timing makes the whole thing look even worse given his still-recent legal situation. They dig into the open NFL review, the charges and plea deal, and the uncomfortable reality of what a player is signaling when he does something that can be read one way by everyone watching.

The show also covers the Bears’ blockbuster trade for Jeffrey Simmons, the relationship between Ryan Poles and Titans GM Mike Borgonzi that helped make the deal happen, the Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit broadcast booth, Troy Aikman and Joe Buck’s reported feud, Caleb Williams’ latest fine.

With Cole Kmet out for the season, the Bears suddenly need more from rookie tight end Sam Roush. Dan Bernstein and Matt Abbatacola examine what the first-year Stanford product has shown so far and whether he's ready for a significantly expanded role in Ben Johnson's offense. Is this too much too soon, or is Roush prepared for the opportunity?

The guys also react to Johnson's latest comments on time of possession and why controlling the ball remains a major emphasis for this offense. Plus, the Bears promote practice squad running back Zavier Scott to the 53-man roster and part ways with Nick McCloud. And with questions continuing to swirl around Jaylon Johnson, what should the Bears do moving forward with one of their most important defenders?
