Summary

Can the Bears' offense be successful with Mike Glennon -- and without Cameron Meredith? Vinnie Duber, Scott Krinch and JJ Stankevitz debate that question, and LA Rams radio play-by-play announcer JB Long joins the pod to discuss Jared Goff and how his 2016 could be a worst-case scenario for Mitch Trubisky.

And guys, the third preseason game, the all-important third preseason game in the books.

0:28.0

And Micah Glennon has locked down that starting quarterback spot for the Bears.

0:32.0

Yeah, I think Mike Glennon showed what he needed to show on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

0:36.8

And the Bears will move

0:38.3

forward with Mike Glennon as their starting quarterback for week one. The question still remains,

0:44.0

how long is Mike Glennon your starting quarterback? And that will depend on him. You know,

three third downs.

0:58.2

That was what the Bears need to see out of Mike Glennon, not turning the ball over, but he's got

1:28.4

they were going to be going with him no matter what, unless an injury or it was a disaster of a

1:33.3

performance. So, yeah, came at the right time for him. They didn't ask him to do too much in that game,
