Mike Tirico was just on set.

And he called a Packers-Bears game with a big touchdown play.

And he even said that the energy at Soldier Field this year was off the charts from the past when he's called games that report.

Mike Tirico's called games everywhere.

He brought it up.

I didn't ask him about the energy.

And then the other one was Albert Breer of the Monday Morning Quarterback.

He's a very smart football guy.

He says that the football consensus of the Bears is they've got a really, really nice window for the next few years.

Now, I know we can talk about a harder schedule next year, but this is his words.

Caleb Williams on a rookie deal.

A June day on a rookie deal.

Kyle Menungai cost you almost nothing.

And I know you're going to have to maybe let some guys go here and there, but you have a lot of talent on rookie deals.

And again, Caleb Williams, in a year and a half from now,

We'll get the big bag.

But for right now, they are cap friendly and a really good team.

So he was very positive about the Bears.

Yeah.

I think the other thing that I've noticed here, and I got a little melancholy as a lifelong Bears guy, is that when I went to media night last night, I was looking around and I was like, you know, the Bears could be here.
