MOBILE, Ala. — For the first time in the three years I have covered the Reese’s Senior Bowl practices, there wasn’t any rain. I was prepared for it, though. Not only did I bring a rain jacket, but I also had an umbrella and a hands-free umbrella holder. Yes, those exist. Bottom line, the rain would not have had an…
MOBILE, Ala. — The practices continued on Wednesday at Hancock Whitney Stadium for Day 2 of the 2023 Reese’s Senior Bowl week. With plenty of position groups in need of upgrades for the Bears, what players stood out for the National and American Team? I highlight some of the potential draft prospects in my top observations from Wednesday’s practice. National…
MOBILE, Ala. — With the sun beating down on Hancock Whitney Stadium, the sound of pads popping could be heard throughout the American Team practice. Not much music was played and the rest was minimal in between drills on Tuesday morning. The structure was extremely similar to a Bears practice, and that made sense because Bears offensive coordinator Luke Getsy…
ATLANTA — With just over 10 minutes remaining in the second quarter, Cole Kmet did something that isn’t normal. After the Bears and Falcons scored touchdowns on their opening possessions, the two teams forced punts on the next four drives. Then on first-and-10 from the Chicago 49-yard line, Kmet got his first target of the game. Kmet, who lined up just…
These last five weeks have made one thing clear. Justin Fields is the best runner at the quarterback position in the National Football League. Now, let’s not confuse that statement with him being simply a running quarterback. Fields is far from being a one-dimensional player. But as a runner, he has been dominating. His 749 rushing yards is sixth-most in…
Two plays before Ihmir Smith-Marsette had the ball stolen from him, the Vikings nearly had the game won. On first-and-10 from the Chicago 36-yard line and with two minutes left in Sunday’s game, Za’Darius Smith sacked Justin Fields and forced a fumble. A scrum of players jumped on the ball but Lucas Patrick recovered it. Fields faced pressure again on…
There were seven total red zone possessions in the Bears-Texans game. How did the home team fare?
Let’s try starting something new throughout this Bears season. Each week, about halfway through, I want to share my takeaways from the previous game, observations on the next opponent and highlight what was said from coach Matt Eberflus, quarterback Justin Fields and from the locker room. We will call this Moreano’s Midweek Update for now, but I’m always up for…
Welcome to my weekly Chicago Bears Redzone Report where I take a deep dive into every red zone possession on both sides of the ball. A team’s success or failure inside the red zone has a strong correlation to its overall performance. In many ways, it’s do or die inside the 20. I want to take some time every week…...
