Start Kyle Orton

JEFFERY SIMMONS!

This week on the SKOd is the annual bonus episode! The guys go around the NFL and chat about everything BUT the Bears (...also might be some Bears talk in there). We promised to talk about Justin Herbert, but what else is in here? Picking on other 2024 draft QBs? Absolutely. Shock over the NFC playoff picture? It's in here. Steve DeBerg? Mentioned! Thanks for listening!

This week the guys are mostly just extremely giddy about how good the Bears (and specifically Caleb Williams) are! They recap an incredible Thursday Nighter against New England which had some insane highs (Caleb to Rome! Luther Burden! Kyler Gordon! DJax!) and some wild, hilarious lows (Caleb to Rome?! Handoffs to Joe Thuney? Doinks??). Let's all enjoy being in a new era of Chicago football together, thanks for listening!

This week the guys discuss the returns of Caleb Williams and Kyler Gordon, both of whom were instrumental in a dominant win over the Atlanta Falcons, 31-23. How can a 31-23 win be dominant? Well, about that! How good is this offense with Caleb? How good is this defense when Kyler Gordon is on the field? And how far can we take this thing? Thanks for listening!

This week the guys talk about how they are, for some reason, fairly optimistic about the Bears long term even after the mother of all butt whoopings at the hands of our forever nemeses, the Green Bay Packers. Sometimes you lose with a bad backup quarterback, but not all media outlets would agree that Bagent is Bad-gent and the guys spend a decent bit of time talking about that. How exposed was the defense during this game, and how much worse can it get with Montez Sweat and Dayo Odeyingbo out for a couple weeks? Also... I guess we're talking about the state of football analytics for a while on here! Thanks for listening!

This week on the SKOd the guys go over what has now become a common occurrence for the Bears: an easy, dominant win against an overmatched team, in this case the New York Jets. The insane level of ball control, the clear talent disparity, the clear coaching ability difference... well we've seen this before already this year! At 3-1 with 3 easy wins and a single loss in a coin flip monsoon game, just how good ARE these Bears? And what does that mean for Bears/Packers next week? And... why does that ghost have a Diet Coke? Thanks for listening!

This week on the SKOd we welcome back Erik to celebrate the absolute mollywhopping the Bears put on the Eagles despite starting emergency QB Case Keenum. How cool was that? Since we're all Case's age... are we about to die? What got into Grady and Dayo? And how much hate DO we have in our hearts for those trying to rip Rome and Luther apart? Thanks for listening!

This week on the SKOd... well you see the episode length, the guys don't have much to say about a game that meant nothing for the rest of the season! Games played in a torrential downpour will do that to you. As we run through what we think MIGHT affect the rest of the season we also do a bit of a sound check! Let us know in the comments how Kyle's audio is doing across platforms. Thanks everyone and we'll see you next week!

One win down, 19 to go! The Bears offense came into this season with a ton of hype and they may have blown even all of THAT out of the water in week 1 with a 59-37 victory over the Carolina Panthers. Let's talk about the good, the bad, and Ben Johnson giving Travis a stroke by going for it on 4th down in the 2nd quarter on his own 20!

The season is nigh, and that means one final pre-regular season pod; it's time to preview the Chicago Bears! Join us as we lament the defensive line, applaud the offense, finally make a call on Rome v Burden (they are both awesome), and look forward to football finally coming back on Wednesday(?!). Thanks for listening!
