Mully and Hall, 104.3, the score. Oh, it's always fun to talk to our guy. Brad Biggs is the football man of the Chicago Tribune, a longtime contributor to this station and a valued friend. And he joins us now on the Plumbers 911 hotline. Plumbing Emergency, call 1-833-PLUM-911. Local 130 plumbers get the job done right the first time. We're also on CHSN. Shout out to everybody watching us. Big Zay!
Morning, Brad.
Morning, boys. What's going on? Well, you're on the story. You've got it all. We found out yesterday that apparently the new normal is not an expression you should ever use and that it was misused by the wide receiver Roma Dunze. And he is doing great, feels fine, and everything is up and at him and ready to go with him.
Yeah, I mean, the proof's going to come soon. In the first third of the season, how does he look on the field? How is he performing? How does he look running his routes? Is he able to separate and get open? Is he making the contested catches that were really a highlight of his career at the University of Washington? So if that stuff looks good, yeah, he's ready to roll, and he's going to be a big cog in this passing attack, certainly disappointing the way The second half of last season went for him when he was out injured, and then when he was on the field and there were some drop issues. But you go back to that first month or so, and he looked like he was on his way to catching about 15 touchdown passes and certainly going over 1,000 yards.
So we'll see what the third-year Rome looks like. So Brad, for reasons only the Bears understand, they're making only two players a day accessible to the media. Yesterday it was Roma Dunza. Three today. Oh, bonus day. Grady Jarrett spoke yesterday. What did you hear from him? What's reasonable to expect because he is a year older and last year we saw... his body break down in the midst of the season i don't know if that's a fair way to describe what happened but he was compromised and i wonder what is what are the expectations for a grady jarrett in the middle of that defense this year yeah i mean that knee injury thing might have happened actually before the start of the season and and then they got into a situation where he was uh cutting it out doing what he could to get on the field and uh
then had the scope and had to sit out whatever it was, a week or two. But he's sort of the dean of the defensive line. And I think I said it to you guys maybe last week. I think sort of keeping track of his playing time is going to be important. Like at his age, year 12, make him – be a guy that's going to be close to full strength for your money downs. I'm talking about third down. I'm talking about when you're trying to protect the lead in the fourth quarter with six minutes to go and it's a passing situation. You saw him make some plays last year. You did not see vintage Grady Jarrett from his Falcons days when he was super disruptive. Sort of hard to evaluate those interior players based on statistics, but you want to see him
create some havoc in the pocket with a little more regularity this season.
I'm curious, Caleb Williams, he was perfect in the seven-on-seven drill yesterday by all reports. Is that just a hint of how accurate he will be once the season starts 70%?
I mean, that's putting your big boy pants on for 7-on-7, right? You should be near perfect in 7-on-7 every day, right? There's no pass for us. So, yeah, he had a good day yesterday. Not a ton of reps for the first team. Few more than day one. Shorter practice, but he had a good day throwing the ball to Luther Burton, throwing the ball to Khalif Raymond. I got a chuckle. There's this guy... I think his name is Zach Jackson, covers the Cleveland Browns, and he had something on Twitter yesterday from Browns practice, and I'm paraphrasing, but it was a very short message, and it was something to the effect that completions were scarce during practice.
