  • Bears Ryan Poles Extension Sparks Accountability Concerns in Chicago

    Bears Ryan Poles Extension Sparks Accountability Concerns in Chicago
    Jul 14 2025
    In this episode of The Chicago Bears Podcast, Pat The Designer and Shea Norling tackle the fallout from GM Ryan Poles’ five-year contract extension through 2029. They begin by questioning why the deal was struck now, and whether it signals the front office is prioritizing stability over accountability despite a 15–36 record. Shea points out that tying Poles’ fate to Ben Johnson may make business sense—but still feels premature given Poles’ mixed results. Pat calls it a bold “all-in” move, positioning the Bears to commit fully to Poles’ vision—but he also warns it could mask deeper issues under the guise of stability. Later, they debate whether this extension actually removes pressure to win now or simply hands Poles more time without demanding immediate success . Timestamps: 00:00:00 – Why extend Poles now—strategic move or misstep? 00:08:00 – Pat: This is a win-now, all-in approach 00:16:30 – Is guaranteed stability just a facade? 00:26:00 – Does the extension eliminate accountability?

  • NFL’s Worst Deal? Tremaine Edmunds’ Contract Under Fire | Bears Debate

    NFL’s Worst Deal? Tremaine Edmunds’ Contract Under Fire | Bears Debate
    Jul 11 2025
    In this episode of The Chicago Bears Podcast, Pat The Designer and Shea Norling take a hard look at the Bears' linebacker group under new defensive coordinator Dennis Allen. They kick things off by discussing Tremaine Edmunds’ four-year, $72 million deal, which has been widely criticized as one of the NFL’s worst contracts. Despite being reliable in tackles, Edmunds hasn’t lived up to his price tag and enters a make-or-break season. Shea and Pat examine how Dennis Allen’s aggressive, man-coverage scheme could unlock more from the unit—highlighting T.J. Edwards as a physical, veteran presence whose playing style aligns perfectly with Allen’s system, despite a down year in 2024 . They also shine a spotlight on rookie Ruben Hyppolite II, whose blazing 4.39 speed has made him a frontrunner for the strongside linebacker job, and could provide much-needed explosiveness off the edge. With questions around veteran value, scheme fit, and rookie upside, the guys ask: can this linebacker group—and in particular Edmunds—finally deliver under new leadership, or will it be the weak link in the defense? #ChicagoBears #Linebackers #TremaineEdmunds #TJEdwards #RubenHyppolite #DennisAllen #NFL2025 #BearsDefense

    Is Dennis Allen Really an Upgrade Over Matt Eberflus? | Bears Debate w/ Jurko
    Jul 10 2025
    In this episode of The Chicago Bears Podcast, Pat The Designer and NFL veteran Jurko dive into their first full breakdown of Dennis Allen as the new defensive coordinator. They open by comparing Allen’s aggressive, man-coverage-heavy scheme to the more conservative coverage style under Matt Eberflus, discussing how this philosophical shift could change Chicago’s identity. They explore how Allen plans to win back disengaged players with fresh accountability, detail which defenders—like Jaylon Johnson, Kyler Gordon, Tyrique Stevenson, Grady Jarrett, and Montez Sweat—are poised to thrive in the new system, and answer whether the group has enough personnel to make this upgrade stick. Jurko rounds out the conversation with stories of legendary defensive coordinators and what makes Allen fit into that elite coaching tier. Timestamps: 00:00:00 – Is Dennis Allen a real upgrade over Matt Eberflus? 00:07:40 – How Allen will re-engage the defense and repair morale 00:16:10 – Who will flourish—or falter—under Allen 00:23:00 – Jurko’s breakdown of defensive coordinator greatness Tags: #ChicagoBears #DennisAllen #BearsDefense #NFL2025 #MattEberflus #JaylonJohnson #TyriqueStevenson #Jurko #BenJohnson #BearsPodcast
