Does Tom Brady Know the Dream Is About to End… or Is It Just a Mirage?
Bears 19, Vikings 17
There’s winning a football game…
and there’s getting away with another one.
The Bears did the second thing on Sunday.
Yeah, we won. Yeah, we’re still taking the North (for now).
Cool. Clap it up.
But let’s not pretend we didn’t skate by on fumes, luck, and a special-teams miracle that Caleb Williams had nothing to do with.
And here’s the part no Bears fan wants to say out loud:
Tom Brady saw what we saw.
And he didn’t fucking like it.
The GOAT Wasn’t Just Calling the Game — He Was Calling the Bullshit
Tom Brady — 7 rings, Michigan alum, literal football royalty, half the reason JJ McCarthy is even allowed to breathe on TV — didn’t sugarcoat anything. He didn’t “protect the rookie.”
He watched Caleb overthrow wide-open receivers again, and you could hear it in his voice:
“Uhhhh… yeah, that’s gotta be a throw you hit.”
Translation:
You miss that shit in January, and the dream is dead.
Look—when Caleb is in the pocket, he looks like a future star. Strong base. Beautiful release. Reads the field. Throws a rope.
But the overthrows?
They’re brutal. They show up every week.
They’re not tiny misses — they’re “DJ Moore staring at him like: bro… again?” misses.
And as much as the fanboys love Caleb… that’s a red flag that doesn’t stay cute for long.
And These Receivers? Catch the Fucking Ball.
We need a citywide intervention.
It’s Week 11 and these drops are still a thing.
If you’re a professional wide receiver and your entire job is to… catch the ball, maybe, I don’t know…
catch the fucking ball?
This isn’t calculus.
It’s not neurosurgery.
You are a human mitt with legs.
Between Caleb missing and the receivers dropping, this offense has no idea whether it’s a genius or a clown show.
And Yet… We’re Winning
Yes, the Bears are winning. Yes, Ben Johnson is cooking. Yes, the run game is hauling ass. And yes — the offensive line is actually holding its own. Holy shit.
But…
Believe this works in January without fixing the accuracy and red-zone execution, and you’re basically a Packers fan pretending most of Rodgers’ career wasn’t one giant waste of time.
We’ve got seven games left.
Let’s slow down on the parade planning.
Now Let’s Talk About That Fraud in the Office
Here’s what Bears media keeps running from:
Ryan Poles is only alive because of Ben Johnson and Dennis Allen.
The man built one side of the ball and then stared at the defense like a toddler trying to do algebra with crayons. If Dennis Allen wasn’t scheming miracles out of duct tape and chewing gum, the entire city would be calling Poles “Stormy Daniels” because he’d be more exposed than she ever was.
“But GM Bible 101 says build one side first!”
Cool. You did that.
GM Bible102 says build the other side before someone drops 45 on your ass.
Look at the Chiefs before Mahomes took over.
Andy Reid built the offense on Day One.
At the SAME time, the front office built a top-10 defense every year:
Draft steals. Smart signings. No wasted picks. Actual talent.
That’s how you win Super Bowls.
The Bears? Ranked 8th on offense, but…
One side is cooking and the other side is showing up late to class without homework.
Red Zone. Body Language. And Why It Matters.
Caleb did NOT look happy after the win.
And don’t pretend body language doesn’t matter — even my girlfriend, the exec editor of this blog and smarter than half the NFL talking heads, noticed it immediately.
YAY! I WON US THE GAME!
NAY! I DIDN’T WIN US THE GAME!
