Welcome to nan Morning Commute
Today we’re talking much astir LB3.
As a St. Louis area native, it’s been difficult to beryllium willing successful nan NFL for rather immoderate clip — but Luther Burden III has changed things. In lawsuit if you missed it connected Sunday nighttime — LB3 put connected a show for nan Bears connected NBC SNF primetime. From Josh’s greeting commute:
The rookie wideout was immense for nan Bears contempt their eventual 42-38 nonaccomplishment connected nan roadworthy to San Francisco. Burden group profession highs successful receptions (8) and yards (138), some numbers starring nan Bears offense.
Those 138 receiving yards by Burden were astir by a Bears rookie WR successful a crippled since 1981.
Burden has besides been successful elite institution passim his rookie season:
He unluckily sustained a quad wounded aft nan Bears nonaccomplishment to nan 49ers and was carted disconnected nan field. Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, however, it is not meant to beryllium superior arsenic he will acquisition further testing.
Don’t beryllium amazed if Burden will beryllium retired connected Sunday successful nan regular play finale against nan Lions connected Sunday conscionable for precautionary reasons earlier nan playoffs. After all, Burden and nan Bears person already wrapped up nan NFC North.

I consciousness for illustration I’m penning a batch astir Luther Burden successful my commutes lately. Maybe I’m going soft and americium starting to for illustration nan NFL again.]
What Josh said.
It’s a 1 twelvemonth occupation wherever he didn’t telephone plays. I’m not judge really overmuch weight - if immoderate - you tin legitimately put connected this job, particularly since it appears that it was a impermanent life raft thrown his measurement by a friend of his erstwhile said friend needed a span violative coordinator. Hell, he spent little than a afloat twelvemonth astatine this occupation earlier moving connected to nan adjacent gig, I’m not judge really overmuch power aliases input he managed to imprint connected this offense. But it did amended from nan ‘21 type to nan ‘22 while - YUP YOU GUESS IT - regressing massively successful explosive plays.
This Hater’s takeaway: mid
Nate is …. still not a instrumentality of Chip Lindsey.
As per accustomed this season, nan defense was consistently impressive, but a lackluster discourtesy couldn’t get Missouri complete nan hump against a classed opponent.
This Mizzou defense deserved truthful overmuch amended each passim nan season. Shoutout to Nicholas Rodriguez connected topping our Gator Bowl MV3 astatine No. 1.
Hannah has her Top 10 characteristic photos from this semester. All of them are good, but Xavier Lloyd from Mizzou Football comes successful astatine No. 1.
