Ben Johnson reacts to Bears QB Case Keenum's 3 TD game vs. Eagles

The Chicago Bears faced off against the Philadelphia Eagles in their first prime-time game of the season, with Case Keenum taking over as quarterback due to injuries to Caleb Williams and Tyson Bagent. Head coach Ben Johnson expressed his confidence in Keenum coming into the game, and Keenum delivered on that promise in a commanding 27-7 victory.

The Bears' quarterback completed 70.5 percent of his passes and averaged 7.3 yards per attempt, tallying three touchdowns in total – two through the air and one on the ground. After the game, Johnson lauded Keenum's preparation and performance, highlighting his keen understanding of coverage and his ability to accelerate through the play if things weren't going as planned.

This standout performance raised questions about Chicago's starting quarterback for their next matchup against the New York Jets. With Williams likely sidelined for three to four weeks, it remains to be seen if Keenum or rookie backup Tyson Bagent will take the field. Bagent, who has never started an NFL game in his career, will need to step up if given the opportunity, but coach Johnson hinted that Keenum's impressive showing against the Eagles may have solidified his position as the team's backup behind Williams.
