Hoge and Jahns

Adam Hoge and Adam Jahns did their fair share of film studying after the Bears ugly loss to New Orleans this past Sunday. One major takeaway, this is a group effort. It’s not just the play-calling, or the quarterback, or the blocking, etc… The entire group needs to be better. Hoge and Jahns let the listeners vent when they play the strongest batch of voicemails they’ve received all season. The guys struggle to make bold predictions, but make their picks for the Bears game as well as the contests involving their NFC North rivals. Also, don’t forget the podcast will be recording live at Kroll’s in the South Loop on Thursday November 7. Mark you calendars and join us for our preview of the game against the Lions!

After a disappointing trip overseas, the Bears had an extra week to get healthy and prepare for the New Orleans Saints. Apparently, they needed more time. They lost 36-25 in front of the home fans at Soldier Field. Adam Hoge and Adam Jahns discuss what went wrong, as the team’s only touchdown before garbage time came via special teams. They breakdown Mitchell Trubisky’s performance after returning from a non-throwing shoulder injury, and talk about whether he’s progressed enough in his third season as a pro. Hoge and Jahns play the postgame comments from Trubisky as well as head coach Matt Nagy. They also take a look ahead to next week’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Bears took advantage of a huge opportunity Sunday afternoon when they beat the Minnesota Vikings 16-6 in front of the Soldier Field faithful. Since the Lions and Packers had both already lost, a win against Minnesota would mean the Bears were the only NFC North team to get a mark in the “W” column for this week. But it wasn’t all good… Starting quarterback, Mitchell Trubisky, left the game with an injury to his non-throwing shoulder. Adam Hoge and Adam Jahns breakdown the impressive victory, which was dominated by the Bears’ defense, and share their thoughts on how long the team may be without their franchise QB. Hoge and Jahns play the postgame press conference audio from backup quarterback, Chase Daniel, and head coach, Matt Nagy. They also had a one-on-one interview with linebacker, Nick Kwiatkoski.
