The Bearly Educated Podcast

No one expected the Bears to beat the NFC's best Philadelphia Eagles, but the Bears did keep it closer than anyone expected.  We discuss. We also take a quick baseball detour to talk a little about the Cardinals and Cubs free agency moves. And, we need some listener feedback for our next show!

We're back from the bye week! After catching up on Bears and NFL news, Mark makes the case that the Bears should look at what the Eagles have done the past couple seasons as a good model to emulate. This, and more on our newest episode! Thanks for listening!

Nobody likes losing, and losing to the Packers is the WORST. But, the context of what this season is all about matters. That being said, there is plenty to be critical of in this game, Mark goes after the coaching in particular.

Looks like Justin Fields will be starting Sunday against the Packers. How dow we feel? Is it worth it?

Fields is hurt, not terribly, but definitely significant. We discuss the different opinions on when and if he should play the rest of this season. We also look at the Thanksgiving games, and who is starting to look like contenders.

The Bears lose on the road to the Atlanta Falcons. The offensive line had their worst performance of the season, and questionable play-calling by Getsy in the 4th quarter contributed to Fields hurt by game's end. Some are arguing that Fields should be shut down the rest of the season, we discuss.

In this episode, we discuss the Chicago sportswriters and why they are so hung up on a bad Bears team losing to a bad Lions team, even though Justin Fields continues to demonstrate that he is a future NFL star. We also preview the game against the Falcons, which has quite a few former Bears on the roster, coaching staff, and scouting department.

A disastrous 4th quarter leads to a Bears loss to the Lions. We discuss what turned an almost dominating win into a crushing defeat. But long term, is this loss better? Also, Justin Fields continues his string of great efforts and solidifying himself as not only the best player on the Bears, but maybe one of the best in the league. We just hope these losses don't damage his confidence.

Thanks for listening! Please give us a rating and review!

Still giddy over the continued progress and promise of Justin Fields, Mark and Chris discuss some local and national opinions. The enthusiasm is real. We also look ahead to the Bears hosting the Lions for their first meeting of 2022.

The Bears fall to the Dolphins 35-32, but Justin Fields continues to demonstrate that the Bears finally have their franchise quarterback. Cole Kmet continues to grow, Claypool is a welcome addition to a receiving corps which still needs at least one more true receiver. Yes, the defense now stinks; yes, the officials cost the Bears a legitimate shot at winning this game; but the big story going forward is that Fields is the guy.
