My thoughts from game today.

First string OL did not look good, lot of work still to do.  A couple guys out with injury, so not worried yet.  First string offense without Montgomery, Reiff, Patrick, and Kmet.  2nd string contenders Jones Jr. and Pringle did not play either. Hard to say what Bears offense will look like with them vs without.

Tajae Sharpe looked good.  Been hearing he has looked good in practice.  Good to see it translate to game day.

Daz Newsome had some bad plays but had some impact plays.  I for one am hoping he makes team.  He has speed.

Ebener looks like a keeper.  I gotta a feeling Herbert/Ebener are going to make Montgomery expendable and he will not be getting big contract from Bears.

J Sunburn stood out in every way, this guy makes the team.

Brisker looks like immediate impact player as a starter.

D Gates whom I had never heard of looks like he could be solid depth piece at LB.  I look forward to seeing more of him next two pre-season games.

D. Robinson flashed with that sack, which is what I was expecting after listening to podcasts about practice.

Jenkins got a lot of playing time cannot say he stood out, probably not good since he was going mostly against 2nd/3rd stringers.

The starting DL looked a bit weak, I am already worried about us stopping the run this year.

Special teams is looking special.  Trenton Gill looking worth the draft pick.  I honestly was blown away by is accuracy.  We have upgraded punter position.  Santos still solid.  Tackling is improved. 

I believe this team is going to be better than most people are thinking.  Play calling much improved, like the 4th and 2 that went for 20 something yards.  I told my son who is 17 years old "when is the last time we saw a play call like that", he replied "I have never seen play calling like that for the Bears".   Lol.  true.
