- Sep 28 Brad Biggs (X) #Eagles didn't have any one on Kalif Raymond on the over route and he flies with the ball in his hands. 41-yard touchdown and #Bears extend lead to 20-7, 5:47 remaining 3rd qtr.
- Sep 28 Larry Mayer (X) Case Keenum hits receiver Kalif Raymond on a crossing route over middle. The speedy Raymond then turns up field and races untouched to the end zone for a 41-yard TD, giving Bears a 20-7 lead with 5:47 left in third quarter.
- Sep 28 Kevin Fishbain (Bluesky) Kalif Raymond has 90 yards receiving after that 41-yard touchdown catch, his most in a game since Nov. 2023. This is Case Keenum's first two-TD game since the 2021 season finale. 5 plays, 71 yards in 2:49 Bears 20, Eagles 7

3. Kalif Raymond's career high in receiving was 616 yards.
He is currently on track for 1,212.

- Sep 29 EJ Smith (X) Here's the all-22 angle of Kalif Raymond's 41-yard touchdown against the #Eagles. As @FDuffyNFL pointed out on the show last night, everyone in the secondary is playing man except Riq Woolen. Costly mental mistake that broke the game open for the Bears.
Game Plays 3 in-game updates such as touchdowns, sacks and drives
- On Kalif Raymond's crucial 39-yard gain on a receiver screen (that was ruled a run because it was technically a lateral): "With a guy like Kalif with that punt-return ability, that’s really what it turns into for him. He sees a little bit of grass and he can turn on the jets and take it through there."
-
That's a 69-yard punt from Daniel Whelan, and Kalif Raymond had trouble fielding it as the football dropped from the stratosphere. Tack on a 10-yard holding penalty, and Matt LaFleur still has all 3 timeouts in his pocket.

- Oct 11 Kevin Fishbain (Bluesky) The Bears seemed to have something going after Zavion Thomas' 11-yard run, but the Packers' defense all over two plays to Kalif Raymond on the perimeter, and then Cairo Santos missed his second FG of the season.

- 1d Larry Mayer (X) Kalif Raymond's play actually ruled a run because it came on a lateral. On next play, D'Andre Swift's 5-yard TD run gives Bears a 27-17 lead.
- 1d Larry Mayer (X) Huge turn of events for Bears. Looked like they would have to punt when D'Andre Swift was dropped for a 2-yard loss on third-and-4 from Seattle 39. But they were flagged for delay of game and play did not count. On next play, Kalif Raymond catches screen pass and races 39 yards.
- 1d Kevin Fishbain (Bluesky) Emphatic answer from the Bears. Kalif Raymond's 39-yard "run" on third-and-9 was something else. The second-and-11 precision pass to Colston Loveland was also critical to get that first first down. 6 plays, 56 yards in 3:18 Bears 27, Seahawks 17
- 1d Gregg Bell (X) The delay-of-game penalty changes the game. Instead of 4th and 9 after Emmanwori TFL, CHI's 3rd & 9 is a WR lateral Kalif Raymond takes 39 yards, to the 5. Bears score on next play to take a 27-17 lead over the #Seahawks with 8:28 left at hushed Lumen Field. @933KJR

- 1d Gregg Bell (X) 3rd & 4 Bears convert by throwing a WR screen with WR Kalif Raymond running inside and picking off Nick Emmanwori with a bump in the slot to keep the #Seahawks dynamo from making the immediate tackle. Clever design by CHI coach Ben Johnson to neutralize Emmawori in space. CHI at SEA 31 early.

7 things we learned from Bears coordinators
2 more updatesfrom 2 sources
- Oct 1 Larry Mayer (X) Bears coordinators spoke today at HH about rookie Dillon Thieneman's steady progress, Kalif Raymond's early season success and more.
- Oct 1 Erik Lambert (X) That is part of it. His presence scares teams to death. It is why Kalif Raymond keeps getting so open. #Bears · Quoting Colleen : @ErikLambert1 I know Loveland has blocked a lot thus far (and done an overall great job) but is his lack of looks also due to him being bracketed/schemed for a lot as well this season?

A few observations after watching a replay of Bears’ 59-37 win over Panthers:
1/3 Jahdae Walker with an amazing all-around game. On offense, he caught TD pass, shielded defenders from reaching Kyle Monangai on 61-yard TD run, blasted CB on short reception by Kalif Raymond. On special teams, he walloped Jimmy Horn Jr. on 15-yard kickoff return. I asked Jahdae yesterday which play was his favorite and he said: “I like all of them equally just because before the game we were talking about [how] everyone has a role and I just wanted to star in my role.” HE DID!

- Sep 15 Larry Mayer (X) 3/3 Kalif Raymond did a masterful job of sustaining three drives that resulted in touchdowns with key third-down receptions of 28 yards on third-and-11 in the second quarter, 12 yards on third-and-5 and seven yards on third-and-7 on a third-period possession and nine yards on third-and-six in the fourth quarter.
- Sep 15 Larry Mayer (X) 2/3 Caleb Williams’ TD pass to Cole Kmet was elite, with analyst Drew Brees remarking: “The throw and the catch do not get any better.” But Williams was at his best IMO late in first half engineering a 6-play, 80-yard TD drive in 2:13. After being sacked on first play, he completed passes on four straight snaps for 72 yards, including a “jump man” 28-yarder to a sprawling Kalif Raymond and a 24-yard frozen rope to Luther Burden III. Williams followed with a 29-yard TD scramble. I’ve watched Bears since 1970s and have not seen another QB make plays like the ones Caleb produces.

- The #Bears signing Kalif Raymond felt like nothing special when it happened. Just head coach Ben Johnson adding someone he knew and trusted. After watching the game Sunday, it's possible he was the ingredient they were missing last season. And why that's truly scary. (1/2)

- Kalif Raymond didn't need long to see why the #Bears drafted Zavion Thomas. You can't teach speed. However, the veteran receiver knew what he had to do next. Make that strength even more terrifying. (1/2)
- Bond between Caleb Williams, Kalif Raymond evident in practice
- Here is a rep for Kalif Raymond. Before the preseason opener, Caleb Williams threw roughly 80 passes in this kind of setting with the skill position players going one at a time. Ben Johnson gives them the play before each snap.
