You could call Case Keenum the Bears’ No. 3 quarterback. But he’s really more of a fun uncle to Caleb Williams and others. I wrote about his one of kind football career for @theathletic. www.nytimes.com/athletic/674...

It‘s never their fault, always someone’s else. It’s their MO.
Looks like Trump and Hegseth might be preparing to throw the military under the bus on the second strike.

Glad you gave Odunze a mention. Without his recovery the game could have been completely different. that play really “epitomizes the pluck and verve of this team” . It such a great way to describe what Johnson has brought to the #Bears
