The last time the Chicago Bears played the Baltimore Ravens, linebacker Roquan Smith racked up 17 tackles for the Bears in a 16 to 13 loss. The following season (2022), Chicago traded him to Baltimore when they couldn’t agree on terms for a new contract, and he’s been a First-Team All-Pro every year since. This […]
A fourth consecutive win didn’t change the minds of the 4% of our fans who aren’t buying what the Chicago Bears are selling. Last week’s confidence poll results checked in at 96% and we’re holding steady there this week. Maybe last week’s 26 to 14, wire-to-wire win over the New Orleans Saints wasn’t impressive enough […]
So much for that Caleb Williams-Lamar Jackson showdown we were hoping to see.
