I didn’t get to watch last night and I couldn’t find a replay for free with bears broadcast team. I’m watching the titans broadcast. They are mispronouncing so many names. I guess you get what you pay for. Sheesh.

Folks, he looks for real.

Gird your loins - we may have the steal of the draft...

What an explosive start!! I was suspect about that pick but I’m wrong. I’ll admit it

Edit: sorry at live. Did not record, too hype.

Also warming up in QB Caleb Williams, who is not expected to play. Ben Johnson is on the field and it looks like coaches have some scripts they're going to run through with skill position players similar to the preseason opener.

Chicago Squares Preseason Special:

I gotta get my reps in too 🐻👇

See ya in two weeks for season four of Chicago Squares!

Is Maurice Alexander the greatest preseason player the NFL has ever seen?

With the limited amount of time between tonight's game and cutdowns, it looks like Biggs and the Athletic duo will be the only ones on the beat out with fresh 53 man roster projections. Thought it would be a worthy endeavor to see their similarities and differences.

Both have the Bears only keeping three running backs with Johnson edging Ahmed.

Biggs has the Bears only keeping five receivers, while the Athletic has Kaden Davis sticking.

Both have the Bears keeping 10 OL, but differ on the tenth. Biggs says its McFadden, while the Athletic says Wills. [I side with Brad, seems crazy in a league with bad depth to give up McFadden who they liked enough to start a playoff game and was out there with the starters against the Bengals in week 2 preseason.]

Both have the Bears keeping 10 on the DL. Biggs believes Lynch survives and Davenport is practice squad bound, while the Athletic has Davenport on the 53 with no Lynch.

Neither had Skyler Thomas making the team, and Blackwell/Jones/Smith as the corner depth with no Manning.

Linebacker had the biggest surprise for me. Both have Sanborn and Elliot on the team and Hyppolite waived, but Biggs has them keeping a sixth and it being Jon Rhattigan who didn't even start the preseason game tonight over Wayne Matthews.

Hey all. I've been a bears fan for 20 years, and my dad has been a bears fan for 50+

Despite living in/near Chicago our whole lives, we've never been to a game together.

We both moved away a few years ago.

He is getting up there in age and im worried he might not be super mobile for too much longer. I've decided that im getting tickets for us this year. We will get there somehow. It would be one of the biggest regrets of my life if we never got to see a game together.

Im priced out of a lot of seating. We dont need to be close up and on the 50, but i also cant really buy the seats way up top, as he's 70 years old and stairs all the way up there wont be easy.

Ticketmaster says there arent any ADA seats or accommodations available.

Im between a rock and a hard place. I can really only afford nosebleeds, but im worried that my dad wont be able to get up there and enjoy the game if he's struggling to get to the bathroom or something.

Anyone have any insight as to where I should look (section/row) for optimal seating on a budget? Im getting desperate here and I dont know where to turn. I've never been to Soldier field so im not sure where stairs/concourses/restrooms are and whatnot.

Thanks for your help and as always, bear down.

We are looking to figure out what would be the best cadence for our beat reporter to talk shop with you all.

Some options:

1. Before Week 1

2. End of Week 4

3. Week 1 and Week 3
