It was a rough start but he played great when it mattered most so that’s a really good sign and amazing job by Flores adjusting to what the Bears were doing on offense and really shutting them down in the second half besides the late desperation time TD.
Caleb Williams had some good moments but Ben Johnson already looked frustrated with him. Something slightly off with that guy. So much talent but can’t seem to put it together.
Yeah i caught up today. KOCs play calling in the 1st half was poor. But credit to the guy to make adjustments and not just stubbornly stick to what wasn't working. Flores adjusted aswell and the D looked way better.
It was kinda weird, Ben Johnson and Aaron Glen looked almost bad without the lions and the lions looked bad without Ben Johnson and Aaron Glen. I'm sure they'll figure it.
Takes time. I am sure Ben Johnson will be just fine with the Bears. Gotta question that QB though. Still young and so much upside but something off with him.
One thing I really liked about JJ coming out was the same thing I liked about Burrow coming out and didn’t like about Lawrence. He was stone cold in the biggest games and found a way to win. Not saying he is Burrow but I think they are unflappable in a similar way.
That was not a good game imho. Both QBs look like rookies and made tons of dumb calls. I was expecting Bears to win because of Ben Johnson, but Vikes woke up at last and put 3 scores in the forth quarter. Good for Vikes, there is a hope...lol Chicago will be fuming this morning, "get ya popcorn ready" :-)
BTW, I think the new kick-off rule is working, we see more action from that methinks.
It was a rough start for the Vikings but Flores adjusted on D and the offense found its rhythm in the 4th. I think JJ looked a lot better when they were down and took the reins off him a bit. Maybe they were too conservative early.
My pick is MIN. Not watching yet but should be soonish
I bet on the Bears but I would like to see the Vikings win.
The odds are going back and forth, should be close.
I keep trying to zap this post and it keeps failing :(
That’s odd. I am on mobile but that shouldn’t make a difference.
I think my wallet is locked. Investigating…
Feds finally caught up with you.
Lol. More like an Alby update
Alby’s been down
I did see that when I checked in on my node
Looks like none of my comments are getting sats so likely something on my end. Maybe I need to set up my device sync again. Not sure.
How about this one?
They seem to be dribbling in now. I am getting all the old ones.
I took the Bears on Ember for the odds, but I think Minnesota wins.
You aren’t as high on the Bears as I am. I think we saw with the Lions offense yesterday how much Ben Johnson meant to them.
I'm just not sure how good JJ even has to be for this team to win
We will see. Good first drive for the Bears.
How could you 😱😱😱😱
FAFO
Early sack on the Rook.
JJ’s debut
Pretty pedestrian so far.
Figures!
Is McCarthy the first rookie ever to have his first game on MNF?
He’s a redshirt rookie
True. Still his first game.
I did hear something about first qb since Cam Newton to score a rushing tuddy in their debut game.

The more I read about JJM and the quotes from team mates... The more I love this dude. He's so easy to root for.
I think Caleb has some real issues, he may not be good. At least not in the NFL.
WTF is KOC doing with attempting the FG with 11 seconds left?
Even though he made it, why?
Didn’t trust the rookie to not screw it up.
I guess so

JJ settled in. Looks much better.
Big throw there
What a 4th Q
Yeah once he got that pick out of his system he really settled down and just played.
JJ still looks like a rookie.
Caleb has flashed a few things
This is what I expected from this game. I like JJ but I think it will take time and MNF on the road is a tough ask for your first game.
How many years did love sit before his debut?
At least 2.
Flores has adjusted
Baaaaroooooooooo 💪💪💪💪💪
Let's not talk about the first half...
But the second half was brilliant.
What a difference in how the Vikings D looked when they actually got a break because the offense had a long drive.
Vikings D has been on the field way too much. They are spent. This game is over.
Maybe I spoke too soon. Nice throw JJ to JJ.
