The Bear Raid Podcast

Is this the most important excited you’ve ever been for a Bears season? Jonny U breaks down the offseason moves and why it’s ok to dream big.

Bears get thumped in KC. Neither side of the ball looks good and it’s time to start answering the tough questions.

What a week it was at Halas Hall. Between Justin Fields’ comments about coaching, Alan Williams resignation, and injuries to Braxton Jones and Eddie Jackson, there’s plenty to talk about as the Bears enter a week 3 matchup with the Chiefs.

The Bears have added Yannick Ngakoue and we take a look at how the rest of the depth chart shapes up. We look into some of the position battles to look forward to.

We’re counting the days to the draft, taking a look at the top tackles and other positions of need. We explore what the best strategy may be and who would make the biggest impact.

Jonny U and Chino catch up on the Bears off-season moves, starting with the trade with the Panthers, and Ryan Poles’ Day 1 action during the tampering window.

Now that Justin Fields’ season is done, we look at he fared and what to build off of. We look into different FA/draft strategies, as well as discuss who may be the the next President of the Chicago Bears.

In the words of Lloyd Christmas, “so you’re telling me there’s a chance?” Bears have an outside shot of landing the #1 pick. We run through a 3 round mock draft, looking at some trade down possibilities and also cover what the OLine market may look like after a couple options signed extensions.

Justin Fields almost single-handedly defeats the Eagles. We take a look at the development of Kyler Gordon and Jaquan Brisker. How serious is the injury to Teven Jenkins? Has anyone else stepped forward as a building block?

Breaking down the team at the bye week. Outside of Justin, what areas can we build on? Is The Terminator, Will Anderson, the Bears best option in the draft?

In this episode we take a look at what the offense may look like if Fields has to miss time. The spotlight will shine on the O Line and Getsy’s play calling. What’s wrong with the special teams? If they stay at #3 in the draft, which playmaker should they target?

Another dazzling Fields performance results in a L. At what point are we done with moral victories and need to see W’s? Are there enough weapons around Justin to allow him to take that next step? We also take a look at some players who may be available with that 6th pick in the draft.

Justin Fields goes into the history books with his performance against the Dolphins. How do these recent weeks impact their potential draft/free agency needs. How can the Bears build around his talent?

We talk the Quinn, Roquan, and Claypool trades. What it tells us about the direction of this team and how it impacts Justin Fields.

We discuss the Bears thrashing of the Patriots on Monday Night Football. How will the Robert Quinn trade impact Dominique Robinson? The offense is starting to look like an NFL offense.

Do you believe in moral victories? The Bears show development in the passing game and Justin Fields has a game that could be his turning point in this young season.

Do the Bears have a shot against the Vikings? How will the team replace Whitehair on the O-Line? Can a healthy Monty give the Bears the 1-2 punch to attack a weak Vikings run D?

There’s going to be growing pains with a rebuild. We take a look at missed opportunities on both sides of ball and try to find the the positives to build off of. Spoiler alert: there weren’t many.

We compare Justin Fields sophomore season to other recent top QB draft picks. Has Roquan found his spot in this defense? How can the Bears take advantage of a weaker Giants pass blocking O line?

It’s the Khalil Herbert show! The run game continues it dominance while the passing game still leaves much to be desired. Roquan Smith is a baaaaaad maaaan!

We talk a little defense…Should Roquan be moved back to MLB? Teams focusing on Kyler Gordon as the rookie CB. How will Lucas Patrick impact the OL at Center. We also talk a little about the recent Justin Fields comments.
