The stakes are even higher this Sunday in the Divisional round vs the Los Angeles Rams, […]

The third, and final, Chicago Bears injury report ahead of the team’s NFC Divisional Round matchup against the Los Angeles Rams is out. And it is mostly good news for Chicago’s football team. This is as good as an injury report gets this time of year, so I’ll take it without thinking twice about it. As far as I’m concerned, wide receiver Rome Odunze getting upgraded to full participation on Friday’s Bears injury report is the best news that could have come from the injury report. Odunze w...

They have a combined […]
The 2006 NFC Championship aside, this may have been the most important, and meaningful win in all my years as a Bears fan. I won’t sugarcoat it, about midway through the 3rd quarter even I was muttering “same old Bears”, me, one of the most glass half full fans in the world. But even then, […]

Dante Moore’s decision to return to Oregon reshaped the top of the 2026 NFL Draft almost overnight. What once looked like a two-quarterback race at the very top has narrowed, clarifying team needs, positional runs, and value pockets throughout the first round of this NFL Mock Draft. With Moore out of the picture, Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza stands alone atop the quarterback board, while several QB-needy teams pivot toward premium defenders, offensive line help, or playmakers who can s...
