I’m a football writer with more than 15 years covering the Chicago Bears. I hold a master’s degree in the Teaching of Writing from Columbia College Chicago, and my work on Sports Mockery has earned more than twenty million views. I focus on providing analysis, context, and reporting on Bears strategy, roster decisions, and team developments, and I’ve shared insight on 670 The Score, ESPN 1000, and football podcasts in the U.S. and Europe.

One great thing about football is it can manufacture some amazing stories practically out of thin air. Often, when you least expect it. Jay Cutler and Brandon Marshall probably thought they'd never play together again after they were separated in Denver. Then the Bears got the bad back together in...
Ryan Poles knew what needed to happen when he took over the Chicago Bears in 2022. The roster was old, expensive, and nowhere close to competing for a championship. If the new GM wanted to change that, he'd have to bite the bullet. That meant unloading everything that wasn't nailed down and...
Criticizing a draft pick after just four games is par for the course these days from football fans. It's amazing to hear people say what a tragic mistake it was for the Chicago Bears to draft Colston Loveland barely a month into the season. This comes despite clear evidence that the young tight end...
The Chicago Bears were down 24-19 with five minutes left. Mistakes and missed opportunities had characterized most of their performance offensively against the Las Vegas Raiders. It was a penalty here, a dropped pass there, and ongoing struggles to run the ball. The stakes couldn't have been...
Few people know more about the pitfalls of coaching the Chicago Bears than Matt Forte. He spent seven years with the team from 2008 through 2015. In that time, he had three head coaches: Lovie Smith, Marc Trestman, and John Fox. Since retiring, he's watched Matt Nagy and Matt Eberflus come and go...
Two words still live in the nightmares of Chicago Bears fans seven years later: Double Doink. It was the sound made when what would've been a game-winning field goal attempt by Cody Parkey clanged off the uprights twice before bouncing out. The miss cost the team a wild card playoff victory against...
The situation was as clear as day. Las Vegas held a 24-19 lead with five minutes to play in the 4th quarter. The upcoming drive for the Chicago Bears might be their last realistic chance to pull out a victory. They were tired defensively and had struggled to stop the run all day. Giving the ball...
The Chicago Bears finally benched Braxton Jones. It was something we'd felt might be coming for some time. While head coach Ben Johnson said the team loved some of the things he could do, his inconsistency over the past month finally led to a change. During the win over Las Vegas, Theo Benedet was...
There might not be a more divisive figure in Chicago sports right now than Ryan Poles. The Bears GM has been on the job for over three years now. To date, he doesn't have much to show for it. His teams have one of the worst win-loss ratios in franchise history. Several of his decisions contributed...
The stories have been growing in number for months. Players have all agreed on one thing. Head coach Ben Johnson is not one to overlook anything. He is a peculiar blend of a computer nerd and a football junky. He knows everything there is to know about the game. Specifically, what works and what...
It was a frustrating first few weeks for Ozzy Trapilo. Here he was, a 2nd round pick of the Chicago Bears. Usually, players drafted that high see the field pretty quickly. Instead, he was pretty much deactivated by the coaching staff when the season began. It wasn't until week four in Las Vegas...
Caleb Williams has quietly started playing much better football. While most people have focused on the first four games of this season, the reality is that it started as far back as late November of last season. In his first 10 games, Williams had nine touchdowns, five interceptions, a 61.9%...
