- Sep 29 Erik Lambert (X) 10. Case Keenum or Tyson Bagent? Coach Johnson suddenly has a tough call to make. Does he go with the backup they picked as #2 for a reason, or does he ride the hot hand? This #Bears coach feels like the type of guy who sticks to the plan. Bagent will get his shot.
- Sep 29 Erik Lambert (X) 1. Case Keenum going 11-for-11 against the blitz tells you everything about Ben Johnson. The #Bears head coach had a 38-year-old career backup looking like peak Drew Brees. It's bizarre knowing this team finally has one of those guys who can just spam the EASY button.

- Sep 28 Larry Mayer (X) On fourth-and-2 from Eagles' 39, Case Keenum gets DT Moro Ojomo to jump offside, giving Bears a first down. I could be wrong, but I don't think Bears were going to snap the ball there.
- Sep 28 Greg Auman (X) Here's the correct tweet: If Bears win tonight, Case Keenum joins Ryan Fitzpatrick as the only QBs to win starts with seven different NFL teams: Texans, Rams, VIkings, Broncos, Washington, Browns and now Bears. (Thought he had eight, but he had two separate Houston stints)

- Sep 28 Greg Auman (X) If Bears win tonight, I’m fairly sure Case Keenum becomes the first NFL quarterback to win starts with eight different NFL teams. Ryan Fitzpatrick played for 9 but won starts with only 7. Josh McCown played for 9 but won with 6. Brian Hoyer played with 8, won with 3.

- Sep 28 Brad Biggs (X) Case Keenum 15/21 149 yards and 1 TD in the first half. Doesn't look like your standard QB3 - or at least the QB3 the #Bears have turned to in the past. #Eagles will get the ball to begin 3rd qtr. We'll see how Dennis Allen D can do slowing Saquon who is 11/73 so far.

- Sep 28 Pro Football Talk Case Keenum throws first TD pass since 2023 to give Bears 7-0 lead
- Sep 28 Larry Mayer (X) Bears open game w/ 11-play, 66-yard TD drive capped by Case Keenum's 8-yard scoring pass to Luther Burden III. Keenum flipped shovel pass to Burden, who turned up field, broke a tackle, ran into a pile and kept his legs churning, & with a push from Braxton Jones, powered into EZ.
- Sep 28 Matt Lombardo (Bluesky) That was absolutely surgical from Case Keenum on that drive … 3-of-5 for 45 yards and a touchdown. The Bears’ offense looks like the Bears’ offense. And, Luther Burden is a rising star with the kind of speed that makes it so fun to watch all the different ways Ben Johnson involves him.

University of Houston record shatterer Case Keenum is currently in line to start his first game since he came in and rescued the Texans during the 2023 season. Keenum got a crucial win over the Titans that helped the Texans get into the playoffs during that last starting stint. Now, in his 15th NFL season, he could be making his 67th career start on Monday Night Football.
Keenum certainly didn't look rusty in the preseason, completing 25 of 40 passes for 354 yards and two touchdowns, good for a passer rating of 107.7.

Being the third-string QB usually means you're irrelevant to a team's plans.
Case Keenum is a special case.
The 15-year veteran means far more to the #Bears than most realize.
Enough to impact their hopes for a championship? Yes. (1/2)
