Patrick Flowers, Matt Rooney, and Luis Medina break down the Bears’ 31-28 win over the Steelers, Montez Sweat’s impact, Chicago’s growing playoff odds, and a look ahead to a suddenly vulnerable Eagles team.
The Bears keep rolling with a 31-28 win over the Steelers at Soldier Field, and the crew is in full holiday spirit on the Bleacher Nation Bears Podcast, presented by Obvious Shirts.
Hosts Patrick Flowers, Matt Rooney, and Luis Medina kick things off by sharing their biggest takeaways from another statement victory — because, at this point, it’s time to admit it: this team is good. The guys hand out their game balls, led by Montez Sweat, who delivered another dominant performance in a win that pushed Chicago even deeper into the playoff picture.
Speaking of the postseason, The Athletic’s Monday morning playoff simulator now gives the Bears a 54% chance to make the playoffs, and the crew talks about what it means for a team that now controls its own destiny.
Finally, they look ahead to Eagles week, where a Philadelphia team that once looked unstoppable suddenly appears beatable — and the Bears might just be catching them at the perfect time.
