Ruben and RJ are back to put a bow on the 2023 Chicago Fire season. They discuss the end of the season at the hands of NYCFC and how it was a microcosm of the season-- Good but passive defense and a feeble attack. They do praise the club for their defensive improvements throughout the season, but it just wasn't enough. Then, they discuss what the club should do in the offseason.

In the second half of the show, they take a look at all of the Fire's expiring contracts and try to determine who's options to pick up and whether or not to trigger the buy option on Maren Hallie-Selassie (Yes they should)

All that and more on this week's Hot Cast.
