The Chicago Bears keep finding ways to stack wins, and after taking down the Steelers 31–28, this team sits at 8-3 , winners of 8 of their last 9 , and firmly in the NFC playoff picture. Haize breaks down the Best and Worst from a massive victory where Chicago battled injuries, adversity, and still found a way. Nahshon Wright delivered his best game as a Bear with a statement interception and multiple pass breakups. Montez Sweat dominated with two sacks and a strip-sack recovery. Caleb Williams bounced back from a costly fumble with three touchdowns and a 104.3 passer rating. DJ Moore hit 8,000 career yards with two scores. And a wave of rookies — Colston Loveland, Luther Burden III, Kyle Monangai, Ozzy Trapilo — stepped up in a HUGE way. But it wasn’t perfect. Chicago’s run defense got gashed for 186 yards. D’Andre Swift struggled. And the Bears nearly let Pittsburgh steal a game they controlled. We also dive into the updated playoff picture , with Chicago sitting at the No. 3 seed and a 62% chance of making the postseason. With the Eagles looming on Black Friday, Ben Johnson breaks down how the Bears prepare on a short week, and why Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon could return in time for the biggest game of the season. Plus, voicemails from Bears Nation bring the energy on winning ugly, culture change, and national media disrespect. Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/ChiBearsCentral Get at us: Email:
