Latest blog entries from Chicago teams across every league
Ben Johnson didn’t have his best game as a play caller, and the game plan on both sides of the ball left something to be desired, but as they’ve done in four of their six wins this season, the Chicago Bears came back and won a game that they never would have under previous regimes. […]
1948 New White Sox GM Frank “Trader” Lane made his first deal, and it was a beauty. Lane traded backup catcher Aaron Robinson to the Tigers for a young, left-handed pitcher named Billy Pierce and $10,000. Pierce would become arguably the finest lefthander in White Sox history. He won 186 games in a Sox uniform with two 20-win seasons, seven All-Star selections […]

Once again, the Chicago Bears came back in the fourth quarter, this time after being down by 10, and they pulled off a 24-20 win against the New York Giants. With this win, they advance to 6-3 on the season. While some of their games have been ugly and often too close for comfort, this […]

Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about Luther Burden III. Because football is better in Chicago these days than in Columbia (unfortunately). It’s been a tough few weeks for the former Mizzou star in Chicago. He’s had a slow roll out under Ben Johnson and that was before a concussion knocked him out […]
Often mocked as perennial Play-In Tournament participants, perhaps no one in the league is more familiar with being a middling team hovering around .500 than the Chicago Bulls. Despite this, the Bulls have shown a strong start to the season, propelled by their young guard, Josh Giddey, who is listed as questionable after an ankle […]

Our partners at FanDuel Sportsbook dropped some early Week 11 NFL odds, and they’re giving the Chicago Bears 2.5 points on the road against the division rival Minnesota Vikings. The point total over/under for the game is 45.5. These two teams met in the season opener, and the Vikes beat the Bears 27 to 24 after an […]
For most of Sunday afternoon, the story at Soldier Field wasn’t Caleb Williams or Jaxson Dart or even the Bears’ playoff chase. It was the weather. Light snow. Sideways wind. A stadium that felt more like a wind tunnel than a football field. And in the middle of all that, the Bears and Giants traded punches in a game that kept swinging from sloppy to dramatic to downright electric. New York, losers of 10 straight road games, briefly broke through the malaise thanks to Dart’s playmaking. B...
Caleb Williams made magic happen at Soldier Field on Sunday. So, of course he was going to get a game ball from Chicago Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson after the team’s come-from-behind win against the New York Giants. Cornerback Chauncey Gardner-Johnson got one, too. But let’s make no mistake about it — this was a signature game from QB1. And as you might imagine, the postgame festivities inside the Bears locker room were absolutely lit: Hits every time. pic.twitter.com/qgvNjbC1Nh...
The Blackhawks finished up their six game road trip with a 5-1 victory over Detroit on Sunday afternoon. The Hawks got the scoring started on the power play a minute into the game when Connor Bedard picked his corner and lasered a wrister past John Gibson: GOAL: Connor Bedard. Snipe. pic.twitter.com/jgPlrYvEXi — BHF (@BlackhawksFocus) November 9, 2025 The Red Wings tied the game at one just four minutes later when Dylan Larkin outmuscled Artyom Levshunov to pounce on a reb...
The Chicago Blackhawks just finished a six-game road trip with a bang! The 5-1 win over the Red Wings on Sunday afternoon gave them three straight wins to end the trip. They come home with a 3-2-1 mark on the trip. When you consider the first game of the trip was the first — and, still, the only — bad loss the Blackhawks have suffered this season ( 6-3 in Winnipeg ), closing the trip the way they did is extremely impressive. A couple noteworthy team stats: The Blackhawks score...
Better pizza. Better skyline. Better when it mattered in the fourth quarter. The Chicago Bears pulled off yet another miraculous late-game come-from-behind win thanks to quarterback Caleb Williams FINAL: Chicago Bears 24, New York Giants 20 ( ESPN BOX SCORE ) Thoughts on the crazy Week 10 win The box score isn’t going to show that Caleb Williams played a great game. But to heck with the box score. Chicago’s QB1 delivered victory from the jaws of defeat with this improbabl...
As the first snows of late fall hit the streets of Chicago there is still baseball out in the Arizona desert where it’s been mid-80s and sunny since I arrived on Thursday. Last night in addition to the perfect weather, visitors at the Cubs Spring Training home, Sloan Park, were also treated to quite the […]
Somehow, some way, the Bears found a way to win a football game. Part of me is still so annoyed, but it was a win, and we never apologize for winning in the NFL. Bears Instant Grades Offense QB Caleb Williams | A Caleb Williams, despite having his pass-catchers fail him, led the Bears to a win. It wasn’t his best performance, but there were just so many drops. I’ll let Patrick break down the tape later in the week, but I had a hard time finding many issues with Caleb’s game...
Every Bears game this season is designed purposefully to take years off your life, for better or worse. The Giants firmly had the lead going into the fourth quarter, but 14 points scored by Chicago helped them come from behind with a 24-20 victory on Sunday at Soldier Field. At their worst, the Bears had […]

There hasn’t been much to write about regarding the Chicago Bears offense, but they are trying to make it interesting late.

The Cleveland Cavaliers were on the verge of a comeback last night against the Chicago Bulls, when it became clear that the double-big lineup of Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley was moving too slowly to keep up with Chicago’s pace. This left Kenny Atkinson with a decision: Roll with one of his veterans in Dean […]
Few things warm my heart like a Chicago Bears rushing touchdown in the snow.

After putting up 47 points on the road last week, what will the Chicago Bears do for the home fans today against the New York Giants? New York has an awful run defense, so could we see some more angry running from rookie Kyle Monangai? D’Andre Swift is also back. Will the weather allow Chicago’s […]
