Massive props to Cole still doing a show after that heartbreaking loss. So glad he’s on the team, his leadership is great and he doesn’t beat about the bush , taking accountability for mistakes. Bear down, let’s go smash the cardinals this Sunday!
Just bought a Kmet jersey because of this podcast. I have always loved the way he plays but the past two seasons with his CHGO presence has made him my favorite Bear. See you on thanksgiving in Detroit Cole! It’ll be my daughters first bears game and I’m more excited than a grown man should be
I have loved Bagent since I first heard him talk. He is such an asset to this Bears team and cannot wait until he gets his opportunity to start at QB wherever that might be. But until then, love having him on the Bears. Must be a big asset to Caleb - keeping him grounded in what a great job he has.
Big kmet fan now. He speaks the truth. Dont blame it all on 1 play. They played bad all game was lucky to be in game. Commanders had multiple tds called back. Totally agree fans focus on stupid shit like 1 play instead of the grand scheme of the game.
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite shows. Whats not to love? Hoge is a great even keeled host, and Kmet is a beast on the field and thoughtful off of it. Keep it up big fella!!! Bear the F@&! DOWN!!!!
This is why you are a Captain, Captain! One of the most real offensive captains i have ever seen on the bears. I love it. Also, just got a set of youre jerseys in for subdays game!
BAGENT MANIA!!! Seriously I hope he gets a shot somewhere to get a real chance to start. Full offseason with the ones. Dude deserves it. He may be my favorite player on the team. He's easily a top 25 NFL QB right now, some team could really use him.
As a Commanders fan, I have to say, y'all have some toxic fans among you. I have never heard so much sh-t talk leading up to a game. But Cole seems like a great dude so nobody should be giving him crap. Your coach and that Stevenson guy deserve it, but not Cole.
@@RedMage117 I mean it started with commander fans. I still like Jayden but after the first two weeks there were SO MANY commander fans making fun of caleb williams and they never left our livestreams. I've never ever took even a minute out of my day to make fun of a commander fan but they always end up here for whatever reason.
@@RedMage117 I don’t know why each side thinks the other started it. The fact is that you guys have awful fans just like we do. I don’t agree with the levels some of ours stooped to, but let’s not act like trash talking before a game is supposed to be taboo. Everyone trash talks. That’s what makes sports fun. The winner gets to say “I told you so” but some of your guys have been invading all of our videos for the last 72 hours and it’s weird behavior. I don’t like any of it. I owned my trash talking and gave out plenty of congrats. Yet that is not enough for some
@@RedMage117 I will say it to you too though. Congratulations. We have a rivalry that will last for a while, and I look forward to more battles between our teams. 🤘
Cole definitely won me over the last 2 years , gotta love his game and earned his respect the hard way , like a tommy waddle , need more guys like him on the squad , needs at least 8 targets minimum
✌🏻❤️🙏🏻....favorite thing said this weekend. Cole saying he knew Caleb had 3 bad quarters. The team hadn't gave him much help. But with 2 minutes left. We had a QB take the lead with a touchdown. And he hadn't seen that since he got here. F'IN CHUCK & PRAY🤬
Why cry? This organization is dogshit. We as Bears fans know the joke we are throughout the league. The McCaskeys deserve $1.50 tickets unsold at Soldier Field.
@The85WithColeKmet I was introduced to uncrustables in high school doing community service in Williamsport, Pa at the little league stadium. It was 2002 in the back of a white van sitting on a milk crate. Changed my life. 😊
Cole you’re a rock, you’re no where near just being a hard place in this league. U are a Blue chip player that deserves to coach his own sorry as team. I love u dude keep doing the shows it’s inspirational vro cus that L hurt and u didn’t have to do this. Love you vro keep going !!!❤️
Cole, how does it feel knowing that Eberflus and Waldron are wasting the prime years of your career? You deserve better and big props for doing the show. Great two point conversion BTW!
We need to figure out our offensive inconsistency. Our defense balls out consistently. We need to figure out how the offense can lock in earlier in the game - not just in the latter parts of games. But for sure, having a QB that can lock in late in games is refreshing as we never had that with Justin who was terrible in 4th quarters.
Not obsessing over one play, Cole. ....maybe it's the shitty process that got us to that point. You can't call out your coach and play-calling but the fans sure can. With that said, it's a shame to stay focused and grind all game and then F it up on the final play of the game. ....not sure if that's on the coaching or personnel. F'n embarrassing.
both; dbs and coach were completely unprepared and clueless on how to properly manage that drive and last play - ultimately, the results fall on the hc, though.
Gut wrenching doesn’t even describe that game! If you would have scored a TD I would have hit my parlay for $5110! What the hell was the back up center play?!?? That should have been a slant or corner fade to you! Your coaches owe me! 😢
@ people said that about Campbell two years in. Let the season play out. Eberflus runs the defense. He lets other people do the offense. That’s normal. The bears haven’t had good offense since 85. Blame the offense. The defense has carried the bears since the beginning of time. Just like the packers could throw you and me on the field and have a quarterback. It’s just how the gods set it up
@ except Campbell hit home on his second OC hire while Eberlfus failed tremendously. This isn’t year two of a rebuild, it’s a three year it what’s suppose to be a competitive season. He should have been fired last season.
@@ElGatofoo on a Bears video. If you want to choose to ignore that you’re being immature, that’s not my problem. You make your team look bad doing this 72 hours after a game is over. Later bro
@@samzulfer2107 i am too, but maybe he learned some things there that would help him succeed. cards seem kind of a shit-show organization as well though...
i respect Cole, Washington is THAT better opponent they are on top of the NFC EAST and they beat a top 5 defense. We got a murderers row of NFC north opponents coming up. i agree lets fix these slow starts and the defense will do their job.
On the road, took the Lead late from a pretty good team, and unfortunate ending that could have been prevented. The measures of a great team learn and move on quickly.
I still love this team with everything in me. But as a guy that’s been a Bears fan since 96 it’s been a lot of these moments. This one hurt the worst. Worse than the SB loss. Worse than the double doink. Worse than Randall Cobb.
I wish so much was not put on this one game. There is very little mention of how Washington who is not a bad team at all was held to 4 field goals until very end. That’s incredible. Yes the offense was not good at all for much of the game but they never gave up not once. Look at the 2 pt conversion how amped up they were. It should be noted a hail Mary is called that for a reason. If you get it it’s amazing. If you don’t get it then you are like many teams before you and it simply didn’t work. It was poor taste for Tyrek to do what he did but he was in the play. It just so happens that Washington made the catch and that the extent of it. This is a learning year and in large part that how it should be treated. Give this offense a year under themself and just watch what happens.
I'm a fan of Caleb's future but gotta admit that part of me thinks they should of traded Justin AND the #1 pick and built a team around Bagent. Love that kid. He seems to work too hard and care too much to not have a long successful career. Good luck kid
Coming off a bye week it was very disappointing to see a 0 on the scoreboard for 3 quarters. I'm sure we'll bounce back but the coach making bad decisions on the simple situations is concerning to say the least. We gave up almost 500 offensive yards after the bye week. This is unacceptable! We need better play calling for DJ Moore. When he's involved in the air attack everything else falls into place.
"shane called a good game"???? WTF Cole. Come on man, open your eyes. That goal line fumble wouldn't have happened if you would have just stuck with Johnson. There were ton of plays that were head scratchers
I wish flus would take some responsibility ngl it’s frustrating but obviously I’m not in the building I don’t know the full story I just do the research that’s available to me.
To be completely honest the Commander hurt themselves with drops and penalties in the first half. Easy 14 points were taken off the board. This game was close for no reason and ultimately the BETTER team actually won. ... I'm just saying ..
I know Cole reads the comments so let me just say this, Eberflus is done if he doesn't make the playoffs. Another historic lost, this is not acceptable! Last year Fields were blame for those historic losses, this year he's not around so we all know who's to blame for this.
Not the place. You don’t think Cole has his own opinions as a player and person? You think he’s depending on us to form his opinion on a coach he literally sees in person nearly everyday? Man, you guys are trippin
@PhilVanderIV lt's people like you who always support mediocre football and that's why the McCaskey's have gotten filthy rich because idiots like you will defend anything they do. Too scared to fire coaches because they like them or too cheap to hire the good ones. We all have worked with bosses who are nice guys but they didn't know wth they were doing on the job. Cole is a big boy, he knows what comes with this. Eberflus is trash and the sooner they get rid of him the better it will be for Caleb and the rest of the organization. Straight 🤡 on the internet 😂
Well he should be reprimanded for sure but he is the one who saved a touchdown earlier on in the game. He’s a good player but needs better discipline and that starts with coaching.
I love Kmet, but I'm so tired of the phrase "we just have to execute better". THEN DO IT! That phrase just means, we're not good at executing football plays...which is kind of the whole job??? If I told my boss week after week, year after year, "I just have to execute better...pay attention to details" I WOULD BE FIRED! I don't understand how these players (not Kmet) can be so spoiled and undisciplined? YOU MAKE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO CATCH, KICK OR THROW A BALL...PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU'RE DOING! Yet another frustrating year as Bears fan...
Props to Cole for still doing a show this week
Good thing he answered the hard questions. Thanks Hoge.

Wow Tyson is amazing he’s a real one for sure
Uncrustables totally bcz of Cole discussing it a couple months ago. I bought those YEARS ago for our daughter...and we ended up loving them too!
