If you don’t regularly listen to the Hoge and Jahns show, I can’t recommend it enough. Routinely some of the highest quality Chicago Bears content from guys who have been present in the press room for a long time.

Some key insights from Josh Lucas from the Ryan Pace regime:

• The Bears shouldn’t let Bagent walk because a QB is with potential is worth so much more than your 5th safety or 7th wide reciever. That said,
• Most teams probably have not seen enough from Bagent to put in a waiver claim. Still, all it takes is one.
• Praised Eberflus for being willing to change his system, said not all coaches are willing to do that (shots fired at Nagy)
• Praised Fields for having mental toughness to handle Chicago media circus, says he’s seen it break some people (shots fired at Trubisky)
• If he were still running the show, Mooney would already be extended but he is concerned about Jaylon Johnson’s durability (not a take I’ve heard before but maybe there’s a reason we haven’t heard extension rumors yet?)
