About this episode
Luke Hendrickson joins Adam to break down the Bears’ 16–30 loss to the Ravens. It wasn’t Caleb’s best outing — the offense sputtered in the red zone, penalties killed drives, and frustration built as the game wore on.
The guys dive into the noise surrounding the young quarterback — from the film gurus’ takes to the chaos on Twitter/X. Luke explains how the initial wave of criticism shifted once the film dropped, and why Ben Johnson’s reaction inside Halas Hall suggests that while the results weren’t pretty, real progress is happening behind the scenes.
A grounded, honest look at where Caleb and the Bears truly stand after Week 8.
