In honor of Patrick Kane's return ...

Welcome to the Bears By 7 community! I want to lay down a few quick ground rules so this stays a good place to hang out.

1. Don't be a jerk or a troll. There are plenty of places to be a jerk or troll when talking about the Bears online. This isn't one of them. You can disagree all you want. You can tell me you're wrong. You just can't be a jerk or troll.

2. Don't bicker. We had a Discord at CHGO that I generally enjoyed. What I didn't enjoy was the amount of times I was called in to be a "he said, she said" referee between two parties. In fact, it sucked. I have two pre-teen daughters who take up all my mediation bandwidth. So please respect each other.

3. Treat people the way you want to be treated. If you wouldn't say it to someone's face at a tailgate, don't say it here.

4. Be smart about political talk. The entire stadium process is nothing but politics, so I can't issue a blanket ban. But see rules 1-3 before you talk politics here and remember everyone's here to hear about the team you love, not the politicians you don't.

Break these rules and you'll get a warning. Break them again and you're out. Hit me a 👍 to promise you'll do your best to make this community completely rule.

Take the quiz and then let us know how you did!

We’ve seen Caleb crack the Top 10 according to ESPN’s surveying of scouts, coaches, and executives, and he’s also likely headed for a Top 50 finish in the player-voted NFL Top 100 list. But are these rankings more of a projection of his future, or is he already among the NFL’s elite?

I wrote about #84 in this morning's newsletter and focused on the possibility of Loveland becoming the first Bears TE since Mike Ditka to go over 1,000 receiving yards in a season.

Last year's line: 58 receptions, 713 yards, six touchdowns

Where do you think he lands in 2026?
