Case Keenum has made himself a Chicago Bears Legend with his strong game against a good Philadelphia Eagles team, and despite the fact that many members of the media are telling coach Ben Johnson what he must do" the coach himself hasn't announced his plans for Sunday's game against the New York Jets.

Johnson may choose to pivit to Tyson Bagent, the number two quarterback on the Bears depth chart. Will he? We will see.
