[MUSIC] >> Good morning Chicago and welcome in to this Bears Monday on the Captain J. Good morning show on ESPN 1000 and streaming on the ESPN Chicago app. With David Kaplan, Jonathan Hood with you, we've got Shane, we've got J Moore and we've got you for the next hour we will hear from Lance Briggs at 935. Get his thoughts about the ball club, get his letter grades from yesterday's game as the Bears lose to the Colts 21 to 16. Cap, I'm just confused on how the Bears lost that football game. I don't care about Vegas and who they had favored. I don't care about the matchups, what I care about is that the Chicago Bears had enough to be able to win that game. The door continued to be open time and time again by the Colts for the Bears to walk through and they just would not walk through it. Shout out to the defense, defense held the water as much as possible. Yeah, Taylor's a talented running back. So yeah, he got his, got his, got into the end zone. But cap, offensively speaking, there's still troubles. We just went through it on over reaction Monday. You don't want to have what we considered better players on the roster. And still be looking up at the rest of the teams in FC North, because you can't get out of your own way offensively. So there were so many things that bothered me about yesterday's game. We talked to Matt Eberfloos and, you know, okay, it was on the coaches for the time of, I would rather he'd just go, look, I'm the head man and that cannot happen. There's just a presentation thing that I think he needs to be better at. Look, when you get the ball first to goal at the four, one play prior that was fourth and fourth down and inches for a first down. Who'd you give the ball to? Rochon Johnson. Rochon Johnson. Then why are you pulling him out? Okay, maybe you have this wild cat thing you want to do with Kaleo Herbert. All right, he got from the four to the two. Now that it's really going to get tough sledding. Quitty pay and all these guys, Tyquan Lewis in there. You bring in Herbert? Really? Okay, we run Herbert to the one. It's third down and now we'll go back to what I was screaming to you about earlier and I tweeted out the video of it. You asked the Andre Carter 5-8-1-90 to block 6-5 Tyquan Lewis, 2-67, who is coming off the edge with a head esteem. And if you watch the video, I tweeted, it is utter incompetence to ask him to block that guy. He cannot do it. It's not our number 11, it's on the idiot that put that play design in. Watch him get engulfed. I mean engulfed and he takes DeAndre Carter back and at the same time, he wraps up Kaleo Herbert. Like does anybody not put the tape on and go, what in the effort we doing? I'm sure it is being said at the house hall today. I'm sure it is. But just little things, Cap, that just gets in the way of trying to win a football game. Many examples of this, one of them obviously is what you just laid out there. The other thing is like little things like toward the end of the second corner, just a blank show offensively. The penalty into the two minute drill was just terrible. And then the time out, a time running out in the corner, there was no sense of urgency to even get lined up. I don't understand that that's that lack of sense of urgency to get to the huddle and to be able to get lined up and then the quarter just ends. This is at the end of the second quarter, you call this, right? Correct. And then the other thing that bothered you, the penalty in the two minute drill, I just didn't, you're right. And then the other thing that bothered me, we haven't even talked about this. And he had a good camp and he earned his spot on the roster and people make mistakes. No one's perfect. You cannot jump off sides on a freaking punt on third fourth and three when you're down. Hey, defense got us to stop getting a ball back. Encroachment, defense number 94, five yard penalty results in a role to the play is an automatic first down. What that cannot happen. And I know it's on the player. Yeah, Daniel Hardy. Yes, Daniel Hardy. I think he's 94. No, maybe maybe he's 92, whatever he is. That can't happen. And I know hold the player accountable first and foremost. But guess what? The coach can't allow that stuff either. That that's undisciplined football. Just so frustrating. And all we keep hearing is, yeah, it's execution. We got to be better. I mean, and by the way, that's correct. Let's just as a statement when you say it's execution, that's correct because that's football. But it's more than just that. It's more than the execution. Do you not feel like, and I know you do, I'm asking, a rhetorical question here. Do you not feel like there are mistakes being made asking the Andre Carter to block running the speed option when you know that that there's no shot. That's not what we practiced against. It's not going to work. Your quarterback can't take. He would not tell us and you were correct. Last year, he said, sure, Justin can audible. He did not say that today. He did not. I hope that during the day, that is repurposed right here on the station when he does not, which is we just got to execute better. We got to this better. That's a dumb play call. Maybe you practice it all week and it worked because there was a different front that you saw in film. Well, guess what? That front was changed because their coaches looked too. Does their coach not put on the God forsaken tape and go, we cannot defend that play with that front, change it. So we did, and guess what? We didn't react. So we got it stuffed up. Are you know what? Well, Captain executed. So that's why it didn't work. That's what he just told you. And again, you're right. It's what I'm saying. I'm saying facetiously, he's saying that, oh, it's about execution. While the play is right in front of you from upstairs to the field, you can see that that young man and those players cannot execute that play to get into the end zone. Correct. And you are correct that it's about execution. But when you have a flawed plan at the start of it, that play had no chance. Look, the Andre Swift did not have a good day. I'm with Shay and you and Jamor. He did not. I don't care if Walter Payton reincarnated was back there. That play lost 12 yards because the whole state of Indiana tackled him. Yeah, 3 1 2 3 3 2 ESPN 3 3 2 3 7 7 6 is our telephone number. Thoughts from Caleb Williams. The game plan was the run of football. Yeah, the game plan, obviously, you know, when team are having tendencies like that early on, they've had a bunch of guys go down up front and things like that. So, you know, trying to try to get the run game going, trying to, you know, spark that and, you know, and like I said, get that going. So, you know, I think we took, we took steps in the right direction today. You know, we obviously lost not the outcome that you want, but the steps, understanding it's a long season, understanding our defense plan lights out. You know, they give us a shot again at the end of the game to go win. And we were right there. We're super close, you know, passing wise and things like that. You know, obviously can't turn the ball over two times to them. And then, you know, but past game wise, I think we, myself, at least, I feel like I took, you know, big steps. You know, we got to, we got to key in on a few more details. You know, make sure that we're on the same page all throughout, you know, because small details that you practice on throughout training camp and throughout, you know, throughout the season and these weeks and things like that. You know, when you go out there and, you know, things are flying, bullets are flying. And, you know, details aren't, you know, as policies as they should be. You know, the small details end up being, you know, two intersections. So, you know, myself, I got to be better for this team. I know that, you know, we'll have a shot at the end of the game, you know, each week to go and win. And so, and if we're not up, you know, by a good amount already. And so, you know, we're excited. I'm excited and, you know, interior. I'm excited and, you know, still, you know, furious also because it's lost. So, you know, we're excited. I'm excited and ready to go. Can't believe it was with Jason McKee immediately after the game right here on the home of the Bears, ESPN 1000. Look, he, yes, I understand. So I understand, but you can't get, you can't get us knocked off the air. Correct. Can't say what you want to say. Correct. Don't say it like that. Correct. Old me would be probably have punched a wall. Look, Caleb took steps. He showed growth. He threw for 363 and you could take away the Hail Mary. You still threw for 320 some yards. We don't see that around here. I thought the throw to Rome for a touchdown was excellent. I thought some of the checkdowns where he found Cole Kamado, I think, had 10 catches. I thought those were some really, really good decisions as he goes through his progressions. We haven't seen quarterbacks around here go through their progressions like that, whether it was Mitch not doing it or Justin not doing it. I think Caleb's going to be a hell of a football player. I really, really do. But holy bleep, some of the decision making yesterday and not putting that kid in the best position and then asking Cole commit to block latoo. That's a tough block. And he gets beat. Caleb has declined the pocket and protect the football and all of a sudden, the ball is out. There's your bog it. Daniel Hardy jumping off side. And here's the other one we haven't even talked about. That Andrew Billings, man, for a big fat dude inside is really mobile. Yes, that was a fumble on Anthony Richardson. It was go back and listen to it. The whistle comes after the ball is out. That is a terrible, terrible mistake. Bad call. But in the end, we got our coach, man. We did. It's just a fact. All right. So the full line is we go three, one, two, three, two, three, seven, seven, six is our telephone number. Don't forget it. Lance Briggs comes your way at nine thirty five Palm Beach, Florida, listening on the ESP in Chicago. Up here's Paulie on cap and Jhood. Paul, good morning. Hey, guys. Great show. Appreciate it. What's up, man? You're not going to win anything without an offensive line. We've been talking about this for a long time. And unfortunately, it's going to take three years to develop one. The bears aren't going to buy one. They're not going to pay. You know, James Daniels with Pittsburgh makes nine million a year. Total studies protecting Justin Fields. Now, um, uh, this ringback we just signed, he makes eight million. Where are the priorities? This Caleb Williams is great. He's a gunslinger. We'll never know. We will never know because he's never going to have the offensive line needed to perform. Unfortunately, you're, you're correct. And James Daniels, and thanks for the call, Paulie, James Daniels is inexpensive. Nine millions, not a lot for a guy. Nate Davis is making 10. But you got it. You got to go out and find some guys, man. And people will tell that buddy of mine said to me, yeah, but you're not going to find a starting left tackle out on the market because nobody lets them. Oh, really? Laramie Tunsel got moved. Yeah, he plays for Houston. Oh, Trent Williams got moved. He plays for San Francisco. So you want some of the best players in football and you tell me they don't move. Teams find a way. The Chiefs, they know their window to win is open. Guess what? They find a freaking way. Nate Davis, that $10 million offensive lineman, was had a groin issue. That's why he did not start on Sunday cap. But the groin issue was so egregiously bad. Oh, so it's those banged up. Get in there. I mean, come on, man. What are we doing here? I would prefer if they had made him inactive and put you out there and eberflu said, guess what? We are, we bench Nate Davis because we need to get better from him. He has to be better. He's compensated. Well, we brought him in here. We need better from him. No, he has a groin issue. Oh, so many sir. Get in groin issue. Come on, man. I asked him directly. It's like, like, there's, what was the reason for the change groin issue? But when you needed somebody, guess who was there at the end of the quarter? Yep. He's ready to go. Come on, man, just so I don't understand. I'm not asking you to go to the podium or come on the radio and say he sucks. That's not what a coach does. Come on. I want to get the best players out there to help us win. That's what that it is. And Nate Davis coming off the bench was the best. That was our idea of trying to get the best players on the field, something like that. Or he didn't start because I have not been pleased at the effort I've been getting. Well, you're not getting that now. But that I'm saying, if I was in his shoes, at some point, I would walk up to the podium. I wouldn't go, Nate sucks. I would say simply, look, Nate's a talented cat. We're not getting the best out of him so he can watch on the sidelines for a while. And we'll see if that motivates him. Yeah, just Nate Davis wants to make business decisions. So we're going to make a business decision. Just Antonio Pierce. Yes, like you can't lose guys in the room. I get that. And Pierce saying that you can look for the Raiders for the top of the draft. This stuff coming April 3 1 2 3 3 2 ESPN 3 3 2 3 7 7 6 our phone. You can make these big bold, big bold declarative statements cap, but that's not what he does clearly because it's about the team execution, not him. Yeah, I just it fair, but I don't agree. Again, I'm not asking you to go out there and be. I don't know who's the best comic a lot of Kevin Hart. I don't need Kevin Hart doing the interview, right? I just need you to come up there and hold people accountable. All right, more of your phone calls coming up as we talk about the Bears. Landspriggs at 935 on cap and J. OK, that's about that time. You're tuned in to the cap and J. Hood show. Everything ain't hardcore. You know, Chicago's home for sports. ESPN, Chicago, up 7. Nothing cold to get bears go to work. Caleb Williams, shotgun, now they go to a pistol formation, swift by item. Caleb on the keep, pitches it out left, swift and big trouble. Circles back to his 10, loses his feet and down. He goes an unbelievable stand defensively by the Colts and the Bears lose 11 on that pitch out left to the Andre Swift and come up with nothing on fourth down and less than a yard with a minute 40 to go in the second quarter. Jeff and Tom on the home of the Bears. ESPN 1000 with the call here. Every bears game right here on ESPN 1000 3 1 2 3 3 2 ESPN 3 3 2 3 7 7 6 is our telephone number. Talk to you about the Bears and our loss against the Colts as we go right to the phone lines. Pocatello Idaho, listing on the ESPN, Chicago app. Here's Greg on cap and J. Hood Greg, good morning. Good morning. Thanks. Take my call. Love the show and you guys have been hammering this, but I have a different point on the two plays from inside the one. You know, and Shay countered my point by saying, you know, the Colts did the same thing, but they have Anthony Richardson. I have a problem with being in shotgun when you have on the goal line. You know, it takes away a boot at, you know, boot play action. You know, and then you're running back and taking it from the, you know, five or six instead of, you know, getting ahead of steam and running straight up the line. I just don't, and it seems like they do that a lot, maybe because they don't have confidence in their, excuse me, in their offensive line. But you're right. I mean, most teams, if you're going to try to power that through, you know, you don't start your quarterback in the shotgun formation with less than you are to go. Greg, you're 100% right. But it's funny that it's almost like you're in the studio with us because Cap and I were talking about this during one of the breaks. We're talking about how just it seems commonplace in the National Football League, that almost every quarterback is in the sauce, right? Yeah, everyone's in the shotgun. Yes, you're right. Yeah. And no one takes it under center because, again, what do I know? I'm just a fan. I just know that if it's under center, especially that close the goal line, the defense doesn't know exactly where it's going. Is it a quarterback sneak? Uh, is it going, is it going to be in the round to a wide receiver? When you're under center, there's a little bit more mystery. But every seems like all the games I watch, Cap, everyone's in the shotgun. It seems commonplace down the NFL. Yeah, Brett and I had multiple TVs going yesterday. And I'm like, God, everybody third and two, third and what they're all in the gun. It's because college football, like college football is where all these quarterbacks grow, develop, learn. And it has become totally shotgun that that. And so you talk to college coaches and I think the Memphis coach this week, maybe said something where he's like, if the success rate is about the same or better out of the gun when we're going to a running back run and we never take snaps under center, why would we do it from one play? We'll just stay in shotgun. So that's what all these quarterbacks are learning in college. Then you get to the NFL. All you've done for your whole career is take shotgun snaps. Yeah. So you know what the sick thing is? OK, we got the same nonsense we're dealing with again. Mark Tousher, our teammate from ESPN Milwaukee. Yeah, he just tweeted. The Packers win yesterday was an organizational win in a big way. The easy thing would have been to stick with your regular backup and hope to tread water, the hard decision to pit out big for the Packers so far. He's exactly right. It makes me sick to say, but they've got an elite quarterback. We're not going to rush him back. We're going to find a way to kick your, you know, what with Malik Willis. And that's exactly what they did home and away. Organizational peace. They know exactly what they're doing. Exactly. Doesn't matter who's under center. And again, how long is Jordan Love going to be? I don't know. But the point is, though, is that you would think they'd take their lumps without Jordan Love being there. Nope. Same engine. Same one. Same engine. Same plane. That same wins. That dude can coach. But ultimately, Kevin, this is something we'll talk about throughout the week. That's where you want the Bears to be. Yes. Does it look like an organization that's together? Yes. But it's about decision-making on the field. We say all we want about the weight room and how great House Hall is and what Kevin Warren's doing and Ryan pulls and all that. But until you see the wins, man, you are the same. It may look different, but it's the same until you start winning. The idea that we're through three games and the Bears are in last place again. That that's mind-boggling. The Viking is supposed to take a step back. Viking Scott's laughing with a cigar right now and a fine keyante. Yeah, happy that his Vikings are at the top of the standings. Yep. Undefeated three and all with Sam Darnold looking like a stunt. Austin is in Orlando somehow listening on the ESPN Chicago app. Austin, good morning. Hey, good morning, guys. Listen to you guys every morning when I'm at work. Love the show. Thank you, Austin. Appreciate you. What's up? What? I'm just curious. Like, I know this is not the difference as to how the off-run looks or is going to look. But I know something that was discussed a lot is whether or not to bring a veteran quarterback, a leader, into that room to be a mentor for Caleb. Who are you bringing in? I mean, I know that Tana Hill. I'm surprised that Miami hasn't maybe called him yet. Tana Hill has made it clear he's only gone somewhere to start. He wants no part of a mentor role. And I'm sure there's there's some other voice out there. But I don't know if nothing shot against Tyson's agent or anything, but I'm sure that there was someone out there. I'm just wondering if that's going to be a decision that the more this offense is kind of looking this way that we're thinking about having that voice that's in there for. That's why they brought Ryan Griffin, who's work who's in that room now. He's not a quarterback anymore, but he was a backup to a backup to Tom Brady. So they feel like that is the veteran voice that they brought in. That guy's played a lot of football. Again, he wasn't a star in the NFL. No doubt about it, but they feel like who he's learned under gives them that veteran presence. Say, I appreciate it. Guys, I asked him before you go, can I ask a question before that veteran quarterback that you would have liked, whomever it is, would you prefer that veteran quarterback to start and then Caleb sit and just kind of watch and learn? No, because I think he does need to play in order to progress. And I think we're starting to see that progression. I think it's all of maybe the little stuff that, you know, could be making a different here or there that maybe you can't really calculate. But just kind of something that I was thinking about. Again, I like Tyson agent. I think he's a good backup and I'd like to keep him around. I think it's just that that voice in the room that you're right, depending on who it is, could be making that difference here or there. OK, just wondering your thoughts on that. Austin, we'll put you to your telephone call. Houston, Texas, listening on the ESPN Chicago app. Here's Manny on Cap and Jay Hood as we talk bears. Hello, Manny. What's up, Jay Hood? What's cracking? How are you doing? What's up, buddy? Hey, so we talked last year, but the reason for the call, obviously, bears lose. Are we are we just soft? Are we solve an offensive line? I go to watch the Eagles game. We got the Sunday tickets. So I can watch the bears because obviously we can't watch it here local. And I'm watching take one go off. I'm watching the Rams play. They're on their third string left tackle. They got Pukin to cool out. They got Cooper Cup out there playing San Fran. They got George Kittle out McCaffrey out. I people out all of these weapons are out and they're still managing to put up points. The bears have put up 16 points in the first half of three games. What are we doing? We have all the shiny toys to play with. The DJ Moors, the Keenan Allens were running for 1.5 a carry. What are we doing? And that not much of offense, Manny. You know, we're not doing much anything. Unbelievable. We we okay. So yesterday's game. We're sputtering on offense. Richardson's given us the ball. We're getting opportunities. We throw a we it's such a momentum change and it's such a blow for the team. We run a a wildcat and then a speed option. You haven't put up points all game. And that's the best thing you draw up. You put Roshan in the eye, you let them know it's coming and you run it four times. If you can't get in inside the five with four times, then you don't deserve score. Agreed, but that's a joke. It is you're 100% right. You're right, man. It is a joke. Did we not go through this last year, taking six or seven times to get into the end zone at the one that eight plays in putting penalties inside the one yard line at the one yard line and couldn't get it in until then they have to throw it. I think they hit Cole Comette for a touchdown fire DJ. Yeah, I mean, come on. Sir, at some point you start looking at and thanks for the call, man, that it's a bears thing. Mm hmm. Listen, for all the things that you were faced once a century, talking about the positives. Plenty of positives with Roma do and say glad that he was able to get his first touchdown and kind of getting his first touchdown. Ten catches for Comette. That's outstanding. When we talked last week about trying to get commit more touches, he had 11 targets, 10 receptions, good for 97 yards in a touchdown. He was, he was tremendous. Now, he missed the block on Latu. Latu is a speed rusher who was a first round draft pick out of UCLA for a reason. He's a tight end again. He's got to do his job. He has a better chance of winning that battle that DeAndre Carter does against Taekwann Lewis. Jalen Johnson and Tremaine Edmonds with interceptions. Loved again, the defense, swarming opportunistic, you like that. Like from the game after the quarterback a little bit more with Richardson, it wasn't like that. He was a speed demon out there. You know, Richardson, eight carries good for 24 yards. Really, it was really about Jonathan Taylor. He's the one who ran the football effectively against the Bears, 23 for 110. But, you know, all in all, Coach, you could lose, could talk about some of the things that he really liked about the team and saying that the offense is better, but the results the same. A couple of losses in a row here. Correct. You could talk about all the positives and there's plenty you can have to talk about. But again, what we're talking about is the certain plays that happen that stop the Bears from being able to win that game yesterday. And this whole thing with like the play they had at the goal line, I don't want to see a wildcat play ever with the Chicago Bears. You know why? Because it gives me nightmares of Cordell Stewart in a Bears uniform. That's what they remember. They had no offense. And they said, just run Cordell. That was, it was terrible. Yeah, it set the franchise back so, so far with that nonsense offense. They were running with Cordell. I remember it. Oh, God, horrible. So it's like, what are we doing? I like no semblance of offense, no imagination. That's what we saw out there yesterday in key spots. And by the way, Ryan Griffin, who we were just talking about you and I with our caller. So Ryan Griffin was with the Saints. He was undrafted in the 2013 draft. And then the box thought so much of this guy, they will claim them off of waivers. He was there in 15, 16, 17. He went on injured reserve. He signed a two year extension in 19. He backed up Tom Brady as the third string. He was there for a long time until 20 through the 2022. He was released in August of 2022. So he's got a lot of experience and he learned from the goal. So that's why he's the guy in that room. All right, coming up Lance Pregs, he'll join us in more of your phone calls on this various Monday, Captain Jay Hood, weekday morning, seven to 10. Truth of the matter is you're listening to Captain Jay Hood on ESPN 1000 weekdays, seven to 10 a.m., but it'll last a lifetime. It may only be three hours a day, but it'll last you a lifetime. It's a cap and Jay Hood morning show on ESPN 1000 and streaming on the ESPN Chicago app, waiting on your buddy Lance Bregs cap, ESPN Chicago's own Lance Bregs. Let's go to the join us. You're in this segment. Have you reached out to Lance? I have not. That's a shame or anything will hold him accountable. Oh, good job. You're a blouse. Just pass it on to someone else. Just that says execute better. Execute better, Shane. Just kind of run the play. I don't want to tell you that's it. You're you're our Shane Waldron. Why? Your guy didn't execute. Whatever the Chicago Bay is a trash. Let me read you this. We're about Lance. Forget Lance. Oh, I don't mean perfect. Wow, he's not here for a segment. The audience wants info and I got great info for Kayla Williams in week three when he had the clean pocket, like time to just step into his throws. Twenty nine of forty three for three hundred and thirty one yards. Fifteen first downs, a two point three one average time to throw and a touchdown. Average time to throw this week, excuse me, each week, week one, two point seven, five, week two, two point eight, five, week three, two point six, four. He is getting the ball out and out fast. That's from Dave who's a senior writer of sports mockery cover in the bears. It has the BFR pots. I want to give him his flowers because he's a good follow and he put out good intel. Those are good numbers, man. Again, that the pick that he threw on the sideline, that cannot happen. PFF said he had one. Throw that should not have been thrown. That was the one that was picked. They did not downgrade him for the one that went off Rome's hands and chest and got deflected for an interception. Waddle thought that was a poor decision to force the ball in there. When I talked to Tommy, we'll get more from him. This afternoon with Sylvia, of course, uh, but this is not a Caleb thing. You cannot have the timeouts egregious mistakes like that, that we've seen. Two bad challenges last week in the Texans game. The one for sure was a horrible challenge. Yes, it was that one with the pick six. I again, when you watch the video, they were not going to get the get it overturned, but it's a game changing play. I get it. The other one was horrific, the time out on a two point conversion, horrific, the play calling inside the five horrific, in large part, maybe not the first play, but other than that, bad, bad, bad, bad. So what are the bears going to do about it? He laid it all out there. What are they going to do about it? So you see, here's, here's the point, Cap. What we're seeing here through the first three games we saw last year, and we saw the year before the first year, you say, well, they'd have enough talent. And it's a first time head coach and Matt Iberflus. So now he has a little seasoning in the year two. It sounds in the same mistakes are happening there, but the personnel is getting it slightly better with DJ Moore. Now you have the kid in kaboodle. You got the kitchen sink down because Ryan polls, whether you are thumbs up or thumbs down on some of the things that he's done. He's tried to supply enough offensive talent and defensive talent for this thing to hum, for this thing to work because even he says, that's enough. Like we did enough building. This should be the year that you're moving forward and being a playoff team. Again, it's just three games we're talking about, but we're talking about from a coaching standpoint, some of the weird mistakes that we saw in year one and in year two, correct. So at some point, Cap, who's going to win out? The talent roster that you have or the coaching staff in which they're teflon, apparently. Well, at some point, Ryan is going to have to make a decision here. Now that's not coming after week three, it's not coming after week five. But at some point, at the end of this season, late in this season, if things don't turn around and they're still egregious coaching mistakes, he can't go down with the ship. He's going to have to hire a different coach. That's just a fact of life. I think Matt, if Matt was standing here with you and I talk, you know, as to be an honest, no microphones around, if things continue like this, yeah, I'm going to lose my job and that'll suck if he, if you're him. When you are at the end of your rope at your contract, you don't want to put too many slings and arrows into your own body. You don't want to put too much blame on yourself. He said, I'm just telling you, Cap, this is commonplace. This is not new. How many managers are being around in baseball? Well, or quietly, they're pointing the finger at players. They're not getting the job done and never point the thumb at themselves. I mean, I mean, people have been around in your career because I've been around a ton very, very rare that they'll do it. There's a few, but let me ask you this question. If you were in that job and you made any egregious mistake, I don't up to it, bad challenge, timeout before a two point conversion. Would you not, at some point, I'm not telling you, you got to take every single mistake and go, that's on me, wouldn't you at some point walk up there and just go, or in your own coaching show and just go, look, I watched the tape last night. This is on me 1000% and I am going to have some tough conversations today with some people because I got to get better intel from up top. I got to make better decisions and we cannot be handcuffing our guys with the decision making that we make. Hate to do revisionist history cap, but I bet you dollar to donuts that Matt Nagy said that a lot more than Hebrew fluces had with the Chicago Bears. He would always say it starts with me, Nagy. Oh, Nagy was more forthcoming. Always saying it starts with me. He was. And it's not, I'm not trying to exalt him this morning. I'm just saying that just based on the conversations and the interviews and everything else with Nagy, he'd always like, yeah, I could be better or we as a collective can be better, but he says, it always starts with me. Do you get that from that? No, three, one, two, three, three, two, ESPN, three, three, two, three, seven, seven, six, our phone number. I mean, this might be small or medium or large to you, the Bears fan. But just understand that the Bears are one and two. For I said, I'm bumfuzzled. I don't understand why this ball club can't get out of his own way offensively. Cap is is disappointed and like I think we all are about being at the goal line, not being able to punch it in. And there's a lot of this little things from the coaching standpoint. That's just got to get better. If this team actually is going to achieve success this year, not just a win. We're talking about a playoff team right now. They're in the last place in the NFC North. It's three games, but is this going to be the trend again this year? Cap and Jhood weekday morning, seven to 10. This is cap and Jhood they beat in the traffic commute. So you don't have to. Oh, on ESPN, Chicago, 56 yard try. This will be on the right hash for Cairo Santos career long is 55. And this one is up and this one does not have enough distance. It is no good from 56. Yeah, Miss field goal, why everyone's making from 55 60 61 Cairo Santos just missed one yesterday. It surprised me. Cap and Jhood on ESPN 1000 and streaming on the ESPN Chicago app. By the way, Cap, because every time our city's Lewis enters the game, he has to have a penalty just to let people know he's on the field. Yeah, he had another false start yesterday. That's two. I don't care how old he is. Stay on the field and make a difference. Yeah, I don't know what that was with the false start there. I do not know. I can't answer that question of view, but you are correct. I mean, that that's enough. Like, I know that you're excited to be out there, but I mean, and you're the oldest guy in the league. Be still so you have multiple plays on the field. The hell is that just one of his name called? I think so just two games in a row now. Three, one, two, three, three, two, three, seven, seven, six is our telephone number. We go back to the phone lines and talk to you, Andrew and Kenilworth is with us on cap and jhood as we talk bears on a bears Monday and drew good morning. Good morning, guys. Hey, look, the speed option left on fourth and goal is the play call aside. How about the lack of pre-snap recognition that they've got what four guys over there? We've got two blockers. It was dead from the start. How about call a timeout? Only time the staff calls a timeout is when we're not ready for a two point conversion. We hire Shane Waldron. I don't know about you guys. I was a happy idiot. I called up my buddies in Seattle. You know what they did? They laughed. They were happy to see him go three games in. I can see why. Thanks for having me in. Go bears. Go bears. Thank you, Andrew. How about that? I mean, it's all it's it's pathetically bad. It's comical that that's what we're watching. And then I'm, you know, oh, Kevin O'Connell, boy. He's got Sam Darnell of Hummin. And I see guys running unfettered through the middle of the field. I'm like, wow, I thought they were supposed to go four and 13, five and 11. But some of the prognosticators had said that I watched the Packers. I'm like, wow, the Leak Willis is running all over the place. Wow, they're crushing Tennessee. Yeah. And then, of course, the lions built their lines and they went and got a veteran quarterback and Dan Campbell put some emotion into it. And wow, not good. Thank you, Andrew, for the phone call. All the glitters is not gold cap so far. Again, sample size three games, a great sample size Las Vegas, Nevada, listening on the ESPN Chicago app. Rob is on cap and Jhood. Oh, Rob. Hey, guys. So you guys mentioned Kevin O'Connell with the Minnesota Vikings. Yeah. The most important hire they had this off season was Josh McCown as the quarterbacks coach. He's the one there that's really tutoring. Sam Darnell and JJ McCarthy once he's healthy and he escaped. Goed it last year with the Bryce Young failure in Carolina. Bears needed a quarterbacks coach. Why don't we go get one of our own who was a former quarterback for the Bears? And because if they make a change head coach and offensive coordinator again, this will be the fourth time in this century, you draft a quarterback in the first round and then after their rookie year, new head coach, new offensive coordinator, that would be three different play, different systems for capable Williams in three straight years, unless they were to go higher. Lincoln Riley. Rob. We appreciate it. Not at all. Yeah, the way the Bears are getting Lincoln Riley here. You sure shot based. What about based on last Saturday? You sure that's not going to happen? Oh, and he got his head kicked in at Michigan who ran it down his throat. Now again, he wouldn't be in charge of the defense and we've got the person out to get that and not bringing Lincoln. We can Riley sign for 115 or 110 million. You understand Rob's point, though? Yes. Josh McCown, by the way, one of the nicest guys I've ever come across in the National Football League. What a great guy. I'm glad he's coaching. People, he was so nice. People had him like in position to be a head coach in the league. Remember? Like just skipping the line. Right. Like, OK, let's slow down on skipping the line. Nice guy. Let him get a little, you know, mentorship, you know, quarterback coach kind of deal and maybe you will be a head coach. People thought it hit that highly of him. That's when you're a good person, man. They just see you in that kind of leadership position. While he was a 20 of his career, they thought, you know, this guy to be a good head coach, not yet. Careful now, it's not Doc Rivers or someone else. You just get from, you know, the sidelines to put him in the booth or put him on it as a head coach. You're correct, but some some day Rob is in Sugarland, Texas, listening on the ESPN Chicago app. Oh, Rob. Morning, gentlemen. Hello, Rob. I'd like for you to power rank the 10 worst head coaches in the NFL. Start with 10, work your way up to one. We had a chance to shop at a higher shelf, uh, January, February when the coaching chair is so open and we elected not to do it. I'm also interested in the wind total. You think that the bears will need to achieve her? He prefers to keep his job. I don't care if that's anywhere between six and 12. I would cut bait with him sooner rather than later. Well, Rob, average head coach at best. Rob, you listen to the show every day. And so you've heard me say that in the off season, I think the bears, if you're going to upgrade your wide receiver room, upgrade your defense, upgrade certain aspects of the football team. Why don't you upgrade your head coach? Because if you're ready to win, then it's time to get a B to C coach. And that didn't happen. They believe in Mattie Reffloos. And then by the way, the jury's still out. He could still be the head coach after next year, depending on what they do this year. But all I'm just saying is that I said this ball club is going to be nine and eight because it's going to be up and down with growing pains or the rookie quarterback. Uh, I didn't say it to be right. I just said it because it's a rookie quarterback as much as I think Caleb Williams is going to be really terrific in this league. It's a lot of things he has to learn. It was like Shane Waldron has Waldron ever worked with a rookie quarterback this long before? I'm going to say no. I would think not now he may have when he wasn't in OC, it was a past game coordinator and, you know, working his way up. I don't know. I'd have to go back through his bio very quickly. He asked the bottom 10 coaches. Yep. Okay. I'm going to read these two real fast. John Harbaugh. No, obviously Sean McDermott, Zach Taylor. He could be in trouble if the bangles don't get things fixed. Stephansky, Sean Payton, D'Amico, Ryan Shane, Steichen, Doug Peterson. He could be in trouble. Andy Reed, Antonio Pierce, Jim Harbaugh, Mike McDaniel. He just got locked up. Gerard Mayo, Robert Salah, Mike Tomlin, Brian Callahan. That's the AFC coaches. Okay. Three could be fired there. Okay. Jonathan Ganon, Rahim Morris, Dave Canales, who I've told you from when they hired him. I like him a lot. Matt Iberfluze, Mike McCarthy. He'll probably get wacked. Dan Campbell, Matt LaFloor, Sean McVeigh, Kevin O'Connell, Dennis Allen, Brian Deball, Nick Sirianni. He's probably getting fired. Kyle Shanahan, Mike McDonald, Todd Bowles and Dan Quinn. So how many coaches, Cap? He's not very high up on the list, our guy. This portion of Cap and Jhood is brought to you by Chicago Cut Steakhouse. That's right. It's on LaSalem or side of the Chicago River Falls here, baby, that you want to eat on that patio, you better get out there soon. Thank me later. It's the greatest. I'm sad that I won't be able to spend some money there on you, Kaplan. Why? And we sweep the fillies and the reds. I, I cash just, just finished six and O for the season. After getting eliminated. Maybe. I was looking forward to a nice meal, but oh, well, not over. He could have a nice, you could have a nice meal with me, but this guy will be sweating if we sweep the fillies. You and I, I'm not too worried. You would have swatted. Not so worried. You and I should go to a nice dinner to celebrate me, not buying him dinner. We thank you for listening and calling it a B brother program here on the cap in Jay Hood, our thanks to Shea and Jay Moore on the other side of the glass. Tomorrow cap, we will get a chance to talk to Albert Breyer and more on this bears and Colts game. Let's do it. Look forward to it every day, baby. For cap, I'm Jay Hood. We'll talk to you tomorrow. So long, everybody. Take that from Chicago.
