• Beat writer Erik Lambert (X) ATL CHI Caleb WilliamsQB Oct 19
  While Caleb Williams got all the attention, Darnell Wright was the one who set the tone against Atlanta early. No, it wasn't through efficient pass blocking or anything normal. It was simply by committing a murder. #Bears

• Beat writer Erik Lambert (X) CHI Darnell WrightOL Sep 22
  Darnell Wright is already considered one of the best OTs in football. His new contract alone reflected this. It felt like the only thing missing was a signature block to show everybody how great he is. That finally arrived against MIN on Sunday. And it was spectacular. (1/2)

  This is a GOOD preview. · Quoting Clay Harbor: BEARS vs. PANTHERS early PREVIEW A few things I’m watching Week 1: ▪️ Carolina’s offense has to take a jump. Last year: 27th in scoring and 27th in total offense. Dave Canales has handed play-calling to OC Brad Idzik so Bears won’t have real tendencies on him. ▪️ Tet McMillan is a problem. 6’4”, 70 catches, 1,014 yards and 7 TDs as a rookie. Big play threat obviously. ▪️ Carolina is beat up at OT. Ikem Ekwonu is still recovering from his torn patellar tendon and Taylor Moton is out. They do have legitimate depth with former Packers starter Rasheed Walker and first-round rookie Monroe Freeling. ▪️ Jalen Coker is an underrated matchup. Really good from the slot. He only played 11 regular-season games last year, then went 9 catches for 134 yards against the Rams in the playoffs. ▪️ The Panthers invested heavily in their front seven. Jaelan Phillips gives them a legitimate edge threat, Devin Lloyd is a smart, versatile three-down LB… Show all
