Patrick Flowers, Matt Rooney, and Luis Medina break down the Bears’ 30-16 loss to the Ravens, discuss Caleb Williams’ step back, Colston Loveland’s disappearing act, D’Andre Swift’s lingering issues, and what needs to change heading into Bengals week.
The Bears fall to the Ravens 30-16 in a disappointing Week 8 loss, and the crew is back to break it down on the Bleacher Nation Bears Podcast, presented by Obvious Shirts.
Hosts Patrick Flowers, Matt Rooney, and Luis Medina open by sharing their thoughts after a frustrating game against a Baltimore team that didn’t even have Lamar Jackson under center. The conversation turns to Caleb Williams, whose performance felt like a step back after several weeks of steady growth, and the ongoing mystery surrounding tight end Colston Loveland’s lack of involvement in the offense.
The guys also wonder if D’Andre Swift might be more banged up than he’s letting on, with rookie Kyle Monangai seeing a heavier workload for the second straight week and DJ Moore continuing to mix into the backfield. They each pick one thing they’d fix immediately heading into next week and debate whether it’s time to start worrying about Cairo Santos after another inconsistent outing.
The show wraps with a look ahead to Bengals week and what the Bears will need to do to get back in the win column.
