After a truly hideous, miserable Thursday Night Football game between the Seattle Seahawks and the Chicago Bears, both franchises are left with questions at the QB position. For Chicago, Caleb Williams has issues holding onto the football for too long and oftentimes overlooks the easy play for the dramatic one. Can the Bears organization rely on him to execute their offense regardless of who is hired as head coach? Meanwhile for Seattle, Geno Smith has been good but not great all season long. Is it time to move on from his inconsistency? And if so, is there even a quarterback out there worth trading for? Jason Fitz, Charles Robinson & Frank Schwab answer these questions and more in their breakdown of the game.

In this week’s QB Room, C Rob looks at the quarterback situation in Minnesota with Sam Darnold & J.J. McCarthy. Will the Vikings franchise Sam Darnold and punt on McCarthy in light of his unexpected success this season? Or should they let Darnold walk away and fully commit to McCarthy while he’s still on his rookie contract?

To wrap, the trio react to Aaron Rodgers’ comments about the Jets needing to be “professional” and discuss if it’s fair for him to call out the Jets when he mishandled the preseason and minicamps.
