No Joe. NOT “Good throw, better catch.”. That was a shit throw bailed out by Allen!

When we got the flag for Kramer not reporting eligible. I swear, there was a moment when I questioned all reality. "Is this even a football team? What is this? Am I being punked? This can't be real."

Caleb had a really poor game throwing the football. I can't stand how predictable 3rd downs are.

Step 1 - Caleb takes snap, drops to pass

Step 2 - Caleb holds ball staring and failing to pull trigger

Step 3 - Caleb looks down at his line and tries to figure out how he can create a circus act

Step 4 - A) Takes a sack B) Creates a circus show where nothing good happens, ever - a lot of running around. Usually, a penalty happens.

Keenan cost Caleb big tonight. Three clear, easy drops.

Caleb was very inaccurate most of the night, but such is the nature of a rookie QB taking his lumps with a dumpster fire team. It's been more good than bad, IMO.

We will probably lose the rest of the games. Hopefully we can turn that into Kelvin Banks or some other OLine stud. Then get a Guard and a center with the next few picks and I think we should be able to give Ben Johnson enough talent to win. Maybe even bring in Trey Smith. We need our oline to turn it around and quickly. That’s hard to do without bringing in a lot of talent.

I really doubt Ben Johnson comes here. He also screams "quirky OC that doesn't work out as an HC" - so it's maybe a good thing.

Spot on.........

Caleb showed a couple reasons why he was drafted no.1,but damn,he had 3 throws that left me scratching my head.....2 were to Keenan......especially a wide open Keenan that wouod have been 6.

We can say rookie mistakes,but damn,this was game 14 and those same passes are still happening.

8 game losing streak. I never thought it would be anywhere near this bad. What a shame.

Ben Johnson has it good right where he is at.......not sure why he leave Detroit to come to Chicago......

He has a great qb,great oline,great wrs,two great rbs,great te......what do we have in comparison......??.....nothing.

Unless he can pick his own GM then Johnson would have no incentive. Poles hasn't showed the ability to identify and pick O-lineman and I'm positive Ben is smart enough to prioritize them.

Not to mention that Allen "toe-tapped" a yard and a half from the sideline.

One thing is clear. Kiran Amadammadingdong is a project, that is not ready to play, certainly not LT at least.

Ball was a full yard out of bounds too. Just don’t give me, “Caleb put it where only his guy could get it!”. He had no defender to contend with. Imagine if that “amazing” throw was actually to where Keenan was standing? May have had some RAC yards.

He was SO BAD. If he is THAT BAD, how did it not show at practice?!? And if it did show at practice...How is our depth THAT BAD that he was chosen to play?

Good Lord.

I think he's been injured most the year, but ya, it was a shitshow.
