Taking questions for this week's #Bears Mailbag. Send them this direction.

Since 1999, no team has started more unique QBs than the Browns 👀 🟤 Browns: 41 🟠 Bears: 30 🔴 Commanders: 29

Check out the newly released renderings of the #Bears’ proposed stadium in Arlington Heights ⬇️

Caleb Williams through the first 4 weeks of the season: • 8 passing touchdowns (T-3rd in NFL) • 927 passing yards (11th in NFL) • 97.8 passer rating (13th in NFL) • 2 interceptions (32nd in NFL) But I thought everyone called him a bust...🧐

Week 4 RB usage! Workhorses playing 70%+ snaps: JT, Hampton, CMC, Pollard, Jeanty, Saquon, Javonte Williams, Gainwell, Achane, Skattebo, Cook, Brown, and Kamara. All auto starts in fantasy land except Pollard, Brown, and Kamara b/c their offenses blow, and Gainwell b/c he's on a bye, ya know. Still a bell-cow, wouldn't sweat it: Bijan, Kyren, Jacobs, ETN, Breece, Gibbs, Bucky, and Henry all getting plenty of touches even if it'd be cooler if they had more of an every-down role I know last week wasn't cool BUT: Keep on starting Trey Benson. The bigger the workload, the better, I get it: We're still looking at a second-year back who just commanded 67% of the team's designed rush attempts and was targeted on 23% of his routes, unfortunately "only" totaling 10.4 PPR points against the league's best defense in EPA allowed per designed RB rush. Side note: It does in fact feel ridiculous to type out an "own" centered around EPA allowed per designed RB rush. I'm sure that would go over great at the bar. The workload is there, but the efficiency and/or scoring upside is not: Guys who you generally probably will still start in fantasy, but maybe you don't NEED to if you can help it include: D'Andre Swift (sell high-ish during bye?), Jordan Mason (especially this week vs. Myles Garrett and company), and Chuba Hubbard (Panthers are a bottom-seven team in yards and EPA per play). Concerns, but I'm generally pushing through them: Feature Judkins and KWIII. The former because Judkins has BEAST'd his way to working as the RB2 in yards after contact per carry this season while displaying weekly 20-plus touch upside, and the latter is looking at 15-20 touches in his own right in a better-than-expected Seahawks offense hellbent on running the football. Would it be a lot cooler if Judkins' offense was better, and if Walker had more of a three-down role ahead of Zach Charbonnet? Of course, but life isn't fair, and these are still two clear-cut RB2s worth starting in far more lineups than not. Deal with it. These committees are gross, man: Chiefs, Commanders, and Patriots. Super fooking annoying all the way around. America loves a comeback: And it'd make a lot of sense if David Montgomery rebounds in a major way after turning nine carries into just 12 yards against Myles Garrett and company. Even after the performance the man is averaging a career-best 5.7 yards per carry. Gibbs is getting more pass-down work and fully cemented as a top-five RB, but Monty has 28 TDs in 32 games since joining the Lions in 2023 and continues to profile for 12-15 touches more weeks than not. That archetype is tough to complain about as a massive favorite against the Bengals. Changing of the guard in Denver?: Kind of! Things were closer than usual between Dobbins and Harvey; credit to both for making the most out of their touches against the Bengals' sad excuse for a professional football team. That said: Dobbins was basically pulled from the game after clearing 100 rushing yards–the first Denver RB to do so since Latavius Murray in 2022!–leading to Harvey racking up seven of his 18 touches with the game essentially sealed up. Still a step in the right direction, but when accounting for this garbage time usage we didn't actually see Harvey run more routes or play significantly more snaps than usual. Deep league handcuff alert: Not to hurt myself patting my own back, but last week we recommended scooping up Woody Marks (now firmly on the RB2 borderline at worst) before it was the cool thing to do. This week? We move our attention to Saints RB Kendre Miller (5% rostered on Yahoo), you know, at least in normal leagues that don't HAVE someone like Marks available on waivers (blow the budget on the man if so). Obvious injury handcuff upside *and* maybe the shitty Saints explore trading Mr. Kamara. Other guys who profile as great bench stashes: Blake Corum (27%), Tyler Allgeier (35%) and in DEEP leagues keep an eye on Raheem Mostert (1%), who took over as Jeanty's direct backup last Sunday.

look at how early Caleb rips this touchdown throw to Rome Odunze zero arc. perfect timing and placement this is the good stuff

rookie Kyle Monangai has drawn some criticism for his pass pro here he is on 3rd & 5 improving!

Ben Johnson said he wasn't happy with himself for how he handled his halftime interview with CBS because he thought he heard a statement about his team versus a question: "In the moment I honestly I didn’t think too much of it. I’m kind of in game mode. But when I look back at it I am a little bit disappointed with what that looks like. I didn’t hear very well and that’s not an excuse but when I thought I heard, it was not a question but I needed to make some changes, I didn’t take that very well so I’ll do a better job with those going forward."

Ben Johnson's assessment of where things stand with the Bears offense thru 4 games: "I don’t feel like everybody on offense yet is pulling their weight, and that’s myself included. There’s a number of things from yesterday’s game that I have to do a better job of. There’s a couple calls I was getting in late. There’s a couple things that the coaching staff, myself, we could have coached up better to give us a better chance there. "When you look at it as a whole, it was just a mess, man. I’m just not proud of what we put on tape. I think it’s a reflection of myself. I always take it personally. I saw us getting better the first three weeks in a lot of ways on offense and then this was just a little bit of a step back for us."

There are only four players in the NFL with a multi-interception game this season @maine_savage23 & @KevinByard are two of them 👀
