We're listening to the sleeper king podcast hosted by James Coe. Let's talk about the bears. Roshan Johnson got his first offensive snaps of the season and apparently has passed over Khalil Herbert for the RB2 duties there in Chicago. I mean, listen, again, this is kind of like Cleveland. I don't know what to make of the Chicago Bears backfield. I just know it's not Tia Andre Swift. He played a season low 52% of the snaps. Roshan Johnson played 38% and Justin Herbert, excuse me, Khalil Herbert played just 10%. Herbert's snap share has pretty much stayed level all season long. Across 37 carries, Tia Andre Swift has averaged. Are you ready for this? 1.8, 1.8 yards per carry across 37 carries, man. There I know they spent free agent money on them. There ain't no way you can stick with Tia Andre Swift. I just don't know how you do that. Khalil Herbert wasn't much better at 2.0. Roshan Johnson in week number three did average 3.8 yards per carry. Again, not a great number. Not a great, but at least passable, 3.8 is at least passable. It's not even good, okay? But 1.8, we can't work with that. That's an unworkable number. I do wonder as the seat gets hotter and hotter and hotter in Chicago, how long will the coaching staff stick with Tia Andre Swift? By the way, Chicago baby, what are you all doing? I mean, I just don't understand, right? You spent free agent money to go bring in Tia Andre Swift. Why? Why? You already had Khalil Herbert. You had Roshan Johnson. By the way, you also had the aforementioned Deontay Forman who played well, who played well in that same system for nothing. You could have spent nothing and had that trio of running backs and been set. I just don't, I don't understand. Right on top of that, you bring in Gerald Everett at tight end when you already have Cole Comette. Gerald Everett has played himself out of a starting role there in Chicago. That's how bad it's been. Cole Comette has been good. 11 targets, 10 receptions, 97 yards or whatever it was there in week number three. Come on, Chicago, you needed offensive lineman and you didn't spend on offensive lineman. You spent on running back in tight end two positions that were already set. I just, baby, what are we doing out here? Chicago. Come on. Let's make it this out. I don't get it. Okay. Okay. a lot. a lot. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.
