Bears vs Packers Week 14 game flexed to the late afternoon window
The last time the Chicago Bears played the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field, Bears kicker Cairo Santos nailed a 51-yard field goal as time expired to give them a 24 to 22 win. The next time will be on Sunday, December 7, at 3:25 p.m. (CT), following today’s announcement that the game has been […]
Seahawks add interior offensive line depth by signing former Bears draft pick
The constant practice squad shuffling throughout the season continues once again. It was announced on Thursday that the Seattle Seahawks have signed center Doug Kramer to the practice squad. The addition of Kramer comes after a workout earlier in the week. This addition makes sense as well as the Seahawks are suddenly thin at the […]
Is OF Rob Refsnyder Going to be a Free Agent Target for the Cubs?
New Cubs rumor alert. And while the subject, Rob Refsnyder, is not particularly sexy, I do think a deal would make some sense. Let’s dive in. During the Q&A portion of Ken Rosenthal’s Fair Territory podcast , one listener wondered if the Cubs would consider signing a right-handed hitting outfielder this offseason to help improve their offensive baseline against left-handed pitching, specifically citing free agent Rob Reysnyder as a target. Given the presence of Ian Happ (switch-hitter, bu...
Aaron Rodgers returns to Steelers practice Thursday
Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was limited in practice on Thursday as he and Pittsburgh prepare for the Chicago Bears in Week 12. Rodgers suffered a left wrist injury in the Steelers’ Sunday win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin later called it a break that wouldn’t require surgery. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported […]
Chicago Bears Injury Report: Jaylon Johnson Receives Huge Upgrade
The second Chicago Bears injury report of the week has dropped — and it includes a surprising update regarding cornerback Jaylon Johnson. Week 12 Chicago Bears Injury Report — November 20, 2025 Cornerback Jaylon Johnson was upgraded to a full participant on Thursday’s Bears injury report. This is a notable bit of news for Johnson, who hasn’t played since suffering a groin injury in the team’s Week 2 loss against the Detroit Lions. Johnson was a limited participant in last Friday’s pr...
BN Cubs Podcast Ep. 39: Shota Imanaga, Michael King, Okamoto and Murkami, Plans Change, More
Episode 39 of the Bleacher Nation Cubs Podcast is officially live! In this week’s episode, Brett and I talk about the recent roster 40-man roster moves, Shota Imanaga’s decision to pick up the qualifying offer, and wheter or not that should impact what the Cubs do from here. We also talk a healthy amount about Michael King and what we find attractive or not about him as a target. After the break, in our transaction corner, we get into the weeds on the two big Japanese free agent posi...
Nikola Vucevic is in a League of His Own After Second Game-Winning Three
Nikola Vucevic has been historically clutch this season. With Chicago on the brink of embarrassment after blowing a 21-point lead in the fourth quarter, the veteran put on his cape. Coby White drove to the rim before splitting two defenders and sending the ball to a planted Vucevic. The big man caught the ball behind the arc with one second to go, immediately letting it fly for the buzzer-beating game-winner . Not only did the bucket secure Chicago’s eighth win of the season, but it ...

Packers vs. Bears Week 14 game flexed, new kickoff time is 3:25 PM
For the first time in the 2025 regular season, the NFL has implemented its flexible scheduling system to change the kickoff time of a game. On Thursday afternoon, the league announced that it has adjusted the start times for a pair of Sunday games in Week 14, one of which involves the Green Bay Packers. […]
Aaron Rodgers, Mason Rudolph gush over one another
The friendship between Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph is genuinely endearing. While the Pittsburgh Steelers continue to figure out which quarterback will start on Sunday against the Chicago Bears, both signal-callers spoke to the media on Wednesday and couldn’t stop talking about how great the other is. When Rodgers was asked about Rudolph, he was […]
Bears–Steelers Storylines: Rodgers-Williams Intrigue, Playoff Positioning, and a Trenches Test
The Bears return to Soldier Field this week, sitting at 7–3, riding momentum, confidence, and the kind of late-November relevance this franchise hasn’t felt in years. But as they prepare for the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12, the matchup brings no shortage of compelling storylines. There is something for everyone — from a potential Caleb Williams–Aaron Rodgers showcase, to Chicago’s push to stack wins before a brutal two-week stretch, to a trenches battle that could decide everything...

Into the Flood Again: Blackhawks vs. Kraken Preview
The Blackhawks continue their home-heavy portion of their schedule in the back half of November on Thursday night, hosting the Seattle Kraken at the United Center. These two teams met a few weeks ago in the Pacific Northwest during a Hawks’ road trip, with the Kraken taking a 3-1 victory in a game that saw the Hawks turn in a decent performance despite that unfortunate result. Chicago seemed to have the better of the scoring opportunities in that game, but Seattle always seemed to have a ...
The Trail Blazers Have 99 Problems…Is Coaching One?
The Portland Trail Blazers lost a heartbreaking game to the Chicago Bulls last night, falling to a dagger three-pointer after mounting a 20-point comeback in the fourth quarter. It’s possible that pain is just part of being a Blazers fan. Pain seldom goes unremarked, though. After a promising 4-2 start to the season, the Blazers […]
Cubs walkoff heroes: Alfonso Soriano, July 27, 2009
Coming off the division title years in 2007 and 2008, hopes were high for a three-peat in 2009. But the Cubs struggled for much of the early going in ‘09. They kept near first place, but after mid-April were not again in first place — until July 26, when a win over the Reds put […]
Blackhawks vs Kraken — Lineups, Broadcast Info, Game Thread
The Blackhawks and Kraken are two of the teams surprising people early this season. They played 17 days ago in Seattle, a 3-1 win for the home team. The Hawks have been hot since then and will be on their home ice in the rematch. Tyler Bertuzzi is expected to return to the lineup tonight, which is great news. The Hawks are going to keep Ryan Greene on the top line, however. Bertuzzi will be on a line with Frank Nazar and Oliver Moore tonight. Let’s see if the Blackhawks can keep the ...
Caleb Williams Speaks: Aaron Rodgers, Growth, Guarding Against the Hype, and a Steelers Defense Loaded With Playmakers
Like it or not, it’s Aaron Rodgers week. Even in the post-Packers chapter of his career, there’s too much Bears-Rodgers history to pretend otherwise. So it was no surprise that Wednesday’s availability for Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson featured plenty of Rodgers talk from both quarterback and coach. Williams has never shied away from the comparison. During the pre-draft process, I compared him to Aaron Rodgers. Williams himself said at the Combine that among the quarterbacks he studies, ...
What the Chicago Bears’ Playoff Odds Look Like Entering Week 12
Chicago Bears playoff odds being a focal point of in-season content as we gear up for the end of Novmber isn’t something we’re accustomed to around here, but I can get used to it. Week 12 of the 2025 NFL season kicks off with a Thursday Night Football showdown between the Buffalo Bills heading south to face the Houston Texans. The Bears won’t kick off until noon on Sunday at Solider Field, which gives us an opportunity to take a look at the updated NFL playoff odds entering this week’s ac...
Too Close for Comfort, Three-Point Uptick, Veteran Leader Vooch, Dalen Terry(!), and Other Bulls Bullets
In the wise words of Horton Hears a Who, “a win is a win … no matter how ugly.” It goes something like that, right? NIKOLA VUCEVIC GAME-WINNING BUZZER BEATER ALERT!! Let’s be honest, the Chicago Bulls didn’t deserve to win that game. They let an inferior Portland Trail Blazers team – with multiple rotation players on the injury report – erase a 21-point lead over the final 9 minutes of action. Struggling to close things out against superstars is one thing. Strugg...
Week 12 game preview: Bears vs. Steelers
Oh, look, it’s our old enemy, Aaron Rodgers. Coming into Soldier Field with his new team, nursing an injury. He’s 42 now, and you would think past his prime. In fact, the things he’s saying, he appears to be more reflective, a little more chill and ready to, in his own words, let bygones be […]
The Vibes Are Not Good
The Minnesota Vikings somehow managed to take the lead for a brief moment before suffering a well-deserved loss to the Chicago Bears at U.S. Bank Stadium. Here are some thoughts: PAGING JIM MORA At 4-6, 2-3 in the NFC, and with a daunting schedule ahead, playoff hopes are probably finished. Yeah, yeah, mathematically this and […]
Chris Getz’s biggest offseason challenge is getting ownership’s buy-in
Here is a shocker: White Sox general manager Chris Getz has a solid offseason plan. I never thought I would see the day. I was stunned reading Getz, during last week’s GM meetings, outlining the positions he would like to address before Opening Day. Getz is going to focus on adding starting pitching, some bullpen […]
Behind-the-Scenes Love for Nico Hoerner
There’s a decent argument that Nico Hoerner was the MVP of the 2025 Chicago Cubs. The 28-year-old second baseman put up a career-best .297/.345/.394/109 wRC+ slash line and 4.8 WAR, a career-low 7.6% strikeout rate, stole 29 bases, scored 89 runs, drove in 61, and played some of the best defense of any player in baseball. He was also among the most clutch hitters in baseball, constantly coming through when the Cubs needed him. Like many other Cubs, Hoerner is under contract through 2026, ...
