What kind of communication goes on between the QB coach and the offensive coordinator? They are both watching tape and I’d imagine, like you, the QB coach might be looking at the film and seeing guys are being utilized in unusual ways. Would a qb coach say something to the o coordinator about that ?

First block the bears have executed all year

The NFL blocked the video???? I can’t watch the Caleb Williams breakdown? What’s the difference in any other video?

Gregory Vasey

30%. Do you know if you have any subs INSIDE Halas Hall?

Justin

David Walsh

begins 75% and quickly drops down to 40%

Dj

Jeffrey Stoll

JTO, love to hear your opinion on the Herbert trade. It seemed to me that Swift is not strong on blitz pick up. Herbert seemed like a more complete back. Did the Bears just make another personnel mistake?

Joe Schusler

I’m sure DJ has to be frustrated with the way he is being used as well as dealing with a rookie QBs mistakes. Still no excuse for going half-ass. Biggest concern for me is the play calling and utilization of the talent. This is a coaching and accountability problem (first and foremost). Caleb can be better but he is not the main issue here.

Derrick

Maybe 10% lol

Brandon Harris

DJ had like 30% effort, pathetic! We haven’t even started divisional play in the NFC north. We still have to see Green Bay, Detroit, & Minnesota twice each. Plus at the 49ers. 🤦🏾‍♂️ This entire staff should be getting fired come black Monday. What are your thoughts?

Jay Rigdon

Brandon Harris

I’m so done with DJ…

Fernando

Hey JT, I love these vids and your breakdown of different offenses. This was a hard watch and it looks like that bears coaching staff is done. Just curious, if the new coach hypothetically asked you to be the qb coach or offensive coordinator for the bears would you take the job?

ALPESH PATEL

Basically, the one thing Caleb is not doing consistently well is taking the dump off more often; he is making his own life MUCH harder than it needs to be. However EVERYONE else is GUILTY on this offense. Waldron = poor play calling, play design and poor use of personnel. Receivers playing lackadaisically and not running crisp routes/getting separation. O-Line too many pre-snap penalties. Coaches are pathetic - there is NO discipline and accountability. Honestly, Keenan is pathetic and I wish we had traded him....I would fire Flus and Waldron tonight however the Bears being Bears, it won't happen...

Berat Elmazi

Hey JT. Thanks for the honest analysis. Dj stepping into the dangerous territory of becoming “your boy” and it’s fkin rough.

Jake Ponstein

Hunter Mantor

Also, 5%, maybe

Hunter Mantor

It’s hard to watch this and think that our offense is better than last year, because it looks worse currently, even after all the “upgrades”. Also, I was a huge DJ fan when he got traded, but how long do you let his attitude and effort let this team down before you cut your losses and go? That’s our main guy, we need him to be helping Caleb, not giving up on plays..MULTIPLE PLAYS

Suyash Bhagwat

0% effort at the end of the route there. What a clusterfuck of a team, man.

Cody Britt

25% - more effort may have been exerted if he walked to the bench mid play again

JB

20%, 1 for each million in his signing bonus 😂

Cody Britt

Nothing funnier than me saying to myself “holy shit that Keenan route was slow” before hearing JT sigh preparing to talk about it again

The QB School

i recall yes

Matt

And the only change we'll get is trading Kahlil Herbert for a 7th LOL

Steven

Could you do Jayden? He got a QBR of like 96 but it doesn’t seem like he did anything too spectacular. Lamar had a QBR of 97 and seemed to “dominate” what am I missing? Jayden’s QbR for the bengals game was only 94 also.

Donavan Walker

Dj never was like this last year lol.

eric gosnell

15% of his speed, 0% of his effort

John

A generous 10%…buddy just strolled to the bench mid-play

Ryan Kirkpatrick

20%, also happy i decided to get a rome jersey instead of DJ. Just hope they realize he is their future WR and start expanding his route tree

Anthony Skatz

Final comment and I'm very curious about your answer to this: I'm a Panthers fan. I also watched many of your Bears videos last season, which was DJ Moore's first season there. That was Justin Fields; now it's Caleb Williams. In both seasons, I feel like we've seen the same level of...negative demeanor, for lack of a better term. We've also seen how much talent he has when schemed properly. Do you feel like Moore is someone you want to pair with a young/rookie QB? Let's be clear: The Bryce Young trade was horrible. But personally, when I see what Moore has been pulling in Chicago these past two seasons, I can't help but think Carolina was wise to move off of him so that he didn't potentially influence Bryce, regardless of what they got back.

Anthony Skatz

This may be the most concerning Caleb game tape I've seen yet from you. It looks like he's not seeing anything, and the pass protection seemed pretty good compared to last week. Hell, Bryce Young showed more anticipation in last week's game than this Caleb tape.

not good enough, but 30%

Expecting change after this game is how I know you're not a Bears fan. I would've been SHOCKED to find out changes were being made, and it's now Monday night and no changes have been made yet.

Ryan Quackenbush

Patrick Gately

Rob

Not gonna give a percentage, just an F for effort.

Brad Sikorski

About 25%. Also, what do you say in the meeting room about your effort on some of these plays? Especially the one where he just walks away. "Yeah my bad guys" like WHAT?!?

Hilarious film review 😂

SmokeyMountain

also here losing my mind over the DJ Moore tap out thing - how on earth are we doing that or allowing that?

Vohdre

25% from #2 on that play. DJ seems like a really good dude, don't know what is going on in some of these plays. #73 is like the 5th tackle. #58 is the normal RT but sprained his ACL earlier in the game.

i hope

This suck matt eberflus is likely getting canned. Now Caleb has to learn a whole new offensive and build new relationships with the new OC and HC. If I’m Ryan Poles give Ben Johnson the bag, maybe?But wasn’t people saying he interview badly? Who is available?!

Kelvin E. Briscoe

Jared Thornton

Even better he was on the field the next play! Couldn’t believe it lol

What if I told you the o line coordinator is also the run game coordinator

Andrej Milas

Does the HC (Eberflus) have any effect on the gameday offense outside of situational stuff?

Daniel Haley

No more than 35%

Jeremy

Team vibes are identical to Matt nagy’s last year coaching. Zero energy or effort

Jack Belcaster

I said the same thing about JF1, and initially advocated for keeping him, trading back and building O line talent. The tape does not agree that Caleb is a horrible decision maker, has horrible situational awareness, etc. the tape shows that Caleb is horribly inconsistent, and I choose to believe that that’s heavily influenced by his environment. Did I expect the #1 overall pick to overcome this BS? Yes. Am I disappointed that Caleb is playing the way he is? Yes. But am I also disappointed that we’re calling low percentage throws, we’re allowing 46% pressure rates to the cardinals D line, we can’t accurately ID a single run block, our star-studded WRs can’t separate? Yes. I didn’t expect the situation to be such shit, and the situation is not shit BECAUSE of Caleb. Could he play better and overcome it? Yeah. But it’s sucks that the litmus test is “overcome a bad situation please”. Can we, as bears fans, just once create a good situation for a rookie qb in his 8th start?

Tyler Savaglio

Tyler Shore

Eamonn Murphy

the penalty on the DJ Moore Converesion on the first drive was illegal formation of the LT for lining up in the backfield. Also known as complete BS

Leon Sugarfoot

JT, does Caleb stink???

Gabe Harmon

50% :/

Robert Diny

Thought he might say he cramped up and didn’t want to pull something. I’m not plugged into Bears world so didn’t know if they were talking about this. It’s a bad look for sure.

Robert Diny

For sure, just want to check if they were making any excuses for it. Not wanting to fight on extended plays is not a good match for someone who plays like Caleb.

Pat

1H32MIN - 10%

Start Tyson Bagent

I dont think the offense is set up for failure, its failing because Caleb is a horrible decision maker, has horrible situational awareness, horrible downfield accuracy and is horrible at making quick decisions from the pocket. Who knows how different the offense would look with even a serviceable QB, let alone a good one.

Start Tyson Bagent

of course not. if hes not getting the ball much he always gives up on extended plays like that.

Jon

50 yd TD with 10 seconds left in the half cannot happen

ShyGuy

It's funny seeing this excuse for Williams when no one was willing to do the same for Fields. But you should expect your #1 overall pick to make a routine throw that even the bottom half of the QBs in the league are expected to make. This isn't to say the Bears haven't laughably mishandled their QB situation and likely cost good QBs an opportunity to perform over the past 15 years, but when most of the fanbase was mocking Fields as he left town and touted about how the Bears were the best situation for any rookie QB to step into (some even going so far to suggest best situation ever...), you're going to be ridiculed making this excuse for Williams.

The QB School

same

The QB School

for real although i think that was the only time this game

The QB School

hard for me to say w/o knowing play call and pass pro rules. sorry

The QB School

i do not enjoy it. i legitr wonder if anyone is telling some of these guys the truth that is on tape. it's wild af

The QB School

wasn't he back in in like 2 plays?

The QB School

didn't look good for sure

The QB School

that is rough

The QB School

i know.

Ty Stroman

Dj Moore walked off the field

Danny Tobin

Highest paid guy on the team taking himself to the bench. 🤢

BillyK69

The bears are failing him. The commanders are a great example of what you’re supposed to do with a rookie QB

Jack Belcaster

Dude, it’s just the truth. Things don’t need to be either/or. They can be both/and. This offense is set up for failure, everyone is playing badly, so it’s not surprising that Caleb isn’t on point. That’s all I’m saying. Also I think you’d have a bit more credibility if your name wasn’t “start Tyson bagent”. That said, I wouldn’t be opposed to seeing Tyson out there! Something needs to change.

Jack Belcaster

It would’ve been malpractice to leave Caleb out down 20 under normal circumstances. But that was our FOURTH and FIFTH string tackles in the game. Fucking insane

Mike

25% on that DJ Moore route. It’s gotten to a point where it’s just pathetic. Ashamed that I bought his jersey last year🤦‍♂️

Jack Belcaster

20% effort DJ Moore. This team clearly quit on the coaches this week

Mauro Pellegrino

Need that jd5 broski Much love

Start Tyson Bagent

BS. Same ole excuses everyone was giving Justin. Caleb is just playing horrendously. If anything the team is quitting on him which is why everything around him looks like its going to shit also. Guarantee if Bagent comes in, everything miraculously starts looking smooth, he isn't taking these sacks, the line looks more than serviceable and the offense consistently moves the ball.

Robert Diny

Can any bears fans confirm if DJ was hurt on that play or if they said anything about it?

Jack Belcaster

Commenting after just the first half because the second half goes to shit… JT you’re saying Caleb is playing pretty bad football, which is true. BUT he’s also fighting a constant uphill battle. No answers on one play, pass pro taking an L on another, receiver dropping the ball on another, phantom false starts to kill a drive, receivers quitting on scramble drill, first down run in 13 personnel going for -3 yards. So when a play does work and he’s operating a hitch late, can we blame him? I mean, of course we can, and I know I’m making an excuse. But when everything around him is WRONG 80% of the time, I have a hard time giving him too much shit for not executing well on the 20% of plays that function properly. These plays don’t happen as individual snapshots, it all flows together. This offensive staff is atrocious and they’re letting down another rookie QB. It’s embarassing.

Carlo Turro

JTO’s sighs of disappointment whenever he’s about to dig into Moore is hilarious

Edward Bills

Hello darkness my old friend….

Brock Workman

Hey JT, thanks for another awesome breakdown! I had a question on the scramble completion in the 1Q (12:28 play clock, 8:34 video timestamp). Caleb misses throwing the hot route but it seems like his eyes go initially to the left when the ball is snapped. It’s almost like he’s late seeing the unblocked defender coming from the right, and that’s why he doesn’t hit the hot route. Why would the first read be away from the potential unblocked pressure? Is that a scheme problem or Caleb reading the defense wrong?
