Jonah Jackson

Yeah, I think so much of it is, you're right, you've got three really, really good players and two pretty elite players, right? So you look, hey, Braxton Jones, pretty good player, nothing to be super excited about at left tackle, but he's a serviceable player.

Garrett Bradbury, Jonah Jackson are good players, like played a lot in this league, solid players.

But then you got Tooney and you got Darnell Wright, who are elite players.

And if you watch that, you're like, well, yeah, they run behind 59 a lot or 58 because he is just a purple.

Um, and so, um, Yeah, I would just say like they know they have to score and they have.

I mean, from an offensive line perspective right now, Joe Tooney, Jonah Jackson, Darnell Wright.

I know Garrett Bradbury is kind of a probably a meme here, but like.

Garrett Bradbury is a smart center who is very capable in a wide zone scheme to establish some force.

But, like, you know, you're really asking a lot of those guys.

I know Garrett Bradbury is kind of probably a meme here, but, like, Garrett Bradbury is a smart center who is very capable in a wide zone scheme to establish some force.

You know, the receivers, Roma Dunze, Luther Burden.

These guys are searching for content.

They want to be next to Joe Tooney and Jonah Jackson and Darnell Wright.

They want to be slamming heads.

DeAndre Swift picking up pass protection.

Okay, all right, we got to strap it up when the QB is going to run the ball.

He's not just going to cruise out of bounds.

If a team's willing to run the rock and you see some of their big guys, like when you watch Jonah Jackson and Darnell Wright, it's like, all right, we better hunker down.

We got to dig our heels in when those guys are going to do some kind of a duo scheme at us.

I mean, 59 points.

I heard Jonah Jackson talk about, uh, I think it was on yesterday with, uh, the midday show, that he's never been a part of that.

I think a lot of players that played any level of sports or, sorry, any level of football have never been a part of a 59-point game.

And at the NFL level, that's not an overreaction.

... to start off week one, the way they played with their p- pad level is, it's impressive.

You know, just Garrett Bradbury on some of those double teams blocking back with, you know, a nice pad level.

Obviously, Jonah Jackson and Darnell Wright are the best right side in the NFL, I think.

And just their pad level overall was, was incredible.

That was it.

Jonah Jackson, who has not missed a game for the Bears, who is better than what the Packers have, was a sixth-round pick.

So, again, Goody immediately – and those guys were – Tooney was before Belton, I believe, or Banks, excuse me.

But Jackson was after Banks.

That's that.

And so the Packers could have had that.

How much better is this offensive line if you had Jonah Jackson and Tooney as your guards? I

mean, they can't

Uh, on March 5th, 2025, the Chicago Bears sent a fourth round pick in the 2026 NFL draft to the Kansas City Chiefs for two-time All-Pro guard, Joe Tuney.

They also, I think a day earlier, traded a 2025 sixth round pick to the Rams for Jonah Jackson.

Mm-hmm.

Uh, and we talked about this, that Ben Johnson, whose task last year was to get Caleb Williams going in the right direction, did that.
