Love Conquers All, and Other Thoughts on Week One of the NFL Season

And the Bears still stink.

Last year Aaron Rodgers proclaimed his ownership of the Chicago Bears. It seems that ownership has been conveyed from Rodgers to Jordan Love. Love led the Packers to a convincing 38–20 win over the Bears. Love threw for 247 yards and three TDs with no picks against the Sad Sack (well, one sack) Bears defense.

Love waited for three years for his shot and took advantage of it. Meanwhile, Justin Fields looks scarily unchanged from last year. The Bears have now lost 11 consecutive regular season games. If that doesn’t change soon, the boos the Bears heard Sunday are just a beginning of things to come.

The 2023 Bears look like the 2022 Bears.

And that’s not a good thing. The Bears went into thew offseason with a ton of cap room and draft picks. With those assets, how can the Bears offensive line still look that bad? And the same with the pass rush.

Also, how does D. J. Moore get only two targets?

I’m starting to get Ryan Poles/ Matt Nagy flashbacks.

Maybe some NFL teams should take preseason more seriously
