And we're going to start off with some training camp coverage brought to you by Shep.

All right.

Then we'll get to the game since it was interesting.

But what I can be started as it was a tad bit hard to watch.

Yeah.

I did find interest.

I did find interest of the backup quarterback situation, which we'll get

into that when we get into the game. But let's go, let's go training camp, Josh, and let's start

off. You know what, let's start off with Justin Fields. No, no, no, you know what? While we're doing

training camp, I want to get, you have an article out right now talking about how you can see why

the coach of staff decided to sit fields and some significant starters.

So let's start right there with how you felt when you found out that Justin Fields wasn't going to play against the coach last night.

Yeah.

I mean, it was it was kind of interesting because Matt Eberfluse for the really entirety of training camp, even when the offense has had bad days, speeds off, and then he was like, and the starters are going to sit. I was like, okay, that seemed like it's kind of, that's kind of, you know, that that doesn't really jive, right?

But I think after watching Wednesdays and Thursdays joint practices, and that those reps are probably more valuable than the game reps Justin would get.

I think the bears like them because they're controlled.

You know, it's it's, it's 90% live, but he's not going to get touched.
