Patrick Flowers, Matt Rooney, and Luis Medina recap the Bears’ 24-20 win over the Giants, highlight Rome Odunze’s bounce back, share their Week 10 unsung heroes, discuss Chicago’s playoff chances, and preview a Vikings matchup featuring a struggling J.J. McCarthy.
The Bears keep stacking wins, improving to 6-3 after a hard-fought 24-20 victory over the Giants, and the crew breaks it all down on the Bleacher Nation Bears Podcast, presented by Obvious Shirts.
Hosts Patrick Flowers, Matt Rooney, and Luis Medina open the show with their thoughts on another strong outing from Caleb Williams and a big bounce-back performance from Rome Odunze. They each pick their Week 10 unsung heroes — including a few names who quietly swung the game in Chicago’s favor.
The conversation shifts to the NFC playoff picture, where the Bears currently hold the seventh seed and a 30% chance to make the postseason, according to The Athletic’s playoff simulator. The guys debate whether this team can make a legitimate push and how many wins it’ll take to lock in a playoff spot.
Finally, they preview Vikings week, where Minnesota’s offense looks fully loaded again with Jordan Addison, Aaron Jones, and Justin Jefferson all expected back — but rookie(ish) quarterback JJ McCarthy remains a major question mark with more interceptions than touchdowns this season.
