The Carolina Panthers versus Chicago Bears in prime time had as much appeal as a vegetable to Al Michaels. While the rest of the sports world still gets an option with vegetables, everyone, including Michaels, had to suffer through Panthers-Bears on Thursday Night Football.
No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young played about the same game as undrafted rookie quarterback Tyler Bagent. Young went 21-of-38 for 185 yards while the Bears’ signal caller was 20-of-33 for 162. Chicago churned 295 yards total offense compared to the Panthers’ 213.
Football fans were ready with their keypads for the Thursday nighter. Here are some of the best offerings from Twitter.

I need to know what Al Michaels did to Roger Goodell to be getting these matchups every Thursday.

The NFL is so wrong for giving us this game tonight. TNF Bears vs Panthers smh. Thank God for the NBA

I'm very perplexed as to why sports media is trying to convince us that Bagent is good and that somehow Justin Fields should be learning from him/feeling pressure despite Bagent showing nothing with his play thus far

Who had that on their card?

Jaquan Brisker with a big missed tackle & being cooked by a practice squad WR was not on my bingo card to start this game. #Bears

That was the worst screen pass I’ve ever seen in my entire life by Tyson Bagent. #DaBears pic.twitter.com/atFELEztzq

Can the announcers doing the bears game pay attention to the game actually, how did this become a show about everyone else.

Anybody wanna tell Al Michaels that this is a 1 score game in prime time during week 10, and not the Hall of Fame game? This is embarrassing. My apologies to the @ChicagoBears and @Panthers fan bases. #TNFonPrime

Bagent with plenty of time and throws off 🤦🏽♂️ #CARvsCHI

I say this with all due respect… I never want to watch Bagent in a football game ever again after this game. #Bears #BearDown #DaBears

Best part of this game ….. frequent views of the skyline after all the punts. #CARvsCHI

The look on DJ Moore's face when the throw sailed out of bounds spoke for all Chicago #Bears fans.
Absolutely woeful.
Can someone take Getsy to the blue medical tent to check his brain.

D'Onta Foreman has the first offensive touchdown of the night with 6:33 left in the third quarter.
Chicago takes its first lead of the game.
— Carmen Vitali (@CarmieV) November 10, 2023
We could’ve kept Foreman, but we chose Miles Sanders. We deserve this.

Tyson Bagent >>>> Bryce Young

Who would you rather have, Tyson Bagent or Patrick Mahomes? Considering, Bagent leaves you $49 million of cap space. @Chiefs @ChicagoBears

Did Al Michaels just say Bryce Young doesn’t have enough tush to push wtf😭😭😭😭😭

Omg. Panthers are going to get a FG. Game ends in a tie in OT. Please!

The coaching from Carolina on this drive is absolutely horrendous. #NFL
— Jay Finch (@TherealJayFinch) November 10, 2023
Why the hell would you take a 59-yard FG try instead of going for it on 4th and 10 from midfield?! #Panthers
