The Bears have just one offensive coaching spot left to fill — Passing Game Coordinator.

So how do Connor Senger or Will Lawing fit into Ben Johnson’s staff?

The NFL also won its grievance against the NFLPA over team report cards — what does that actually mean for players and teams?

We also look ahead to 2026:

Which NFL teams that missed the playoffs in 2025 are most likely to make it next season? We’ve got our picks.

Plus: we dug into the numbers for Caleb Williams and Drake Maye during their 2025 seasons.

Who performed better against tougher competition?

Is Maxx Crosby getting traded? Possible landing spots — and the one place we really don’t want to see him end up.

And finally… NFL pardons. Why?

Yeah, we have thoughts.

We dive into new details about the key financial backer behind the proposed Chicago Bears relocation to Portage, Indiana and the creation of “Halas Harbor.” The latest information raises serious questions about the legitimacy and long‑term stability of the project, and what it could mean for the future of the Bears franchise. ESPN released early 2026 NFL season predictions, and their experts are setting major expectations for Bears quarterback Caleb Williams heading into his third year. Nick Shook of NFL.com also dropped his 2025 NFL quarterback rankings, giving us a full look at where every QB stands after the season. PFSN had high praise for the Chicago Bears’ 2025 rookie class, highlighting several standout players who could make an immediate impact.

35:00 Bears Draft

There’s a new contender trying to lure the Chicago Bears out of Illinois—Portage, Indiana has officially entered the stadium sweepstakes. And funny enough, history is repeating itself: back in the 1970s, George Halas wanted to move the Bears to Arlington Heights, but Mayor Richard J. Daley threatened to sue and block the team from keeping the Chicago name if they dared leave the city.

We also break down a potential new NFL rule that could allow teams to trade future draft picks up to five years out, which would completely reshape team-building strategies.

Super Bowl 60 set a new viewing record for NBC but still didn’t top last year’s massive audience.

Plus, the 2026 free-agent quarterback list is… rough. Really rough.

And Field Yates just dropped his first-round mock draft—he’s got the Bears selecting an edge rusher.

Chicago football drama, league-wide rule changes, and draft talk—we’ve got it all covered.

The Bears’ offseason is officially here, and GM Ryan Poles has a massive challenge ahead. For the first time in years, Chicago is over the salary cap, which means the front office will have to get creative — restructuring deals, freeing up space for key free agents, and making some tough decisions on potential roster cuts.

Meanwhile, former Bears GM Ryan Pace is officially out of a job after the Atlanta Falcons moved on.

Post–Super Bowl NFL Power Rankings are out — so where do the Bears land after wrapping up the 2025 season? We break down the national perception and what analysts are saying.

Plus, NFL.com’s Chad Reuter just dropped his new three‑round mock draft. Who does he have the Bears selecting, and how would those picks reshape the roster?

30:00 Combine

33:20 ESPN - Bears

When the dust settled, the NFL “blob” took home the championship. Seattle’s defense — the league’s best in points allowed — did its job, but let’s be honest: they also beat an injured Drake Maye, who played exactly like an injured quarterback. With all the shaky QB play we saw around the league this season, why wouldn’t the biggest game be more of the same?

Back in Chicago, the Bears have officially hired Press Taylor as their new offensive coordinator, and the NFL Combine is only 13 days away. According to ESPN, what are the Bears’ top offseason priorities? And is there any chance DJ Moore gets traded?

We break it down on today’s show.

It’s Big Game weekend and we’re fired up… mostly for the food and the commercials.

But hey, football is happening too — and we’ve got thoughts.

The Seahawks look ready to roll the Patriots, Matt Ryan dropped some interesting nuggets about Ian Cunningham’s role in Atlanta, and yes… we are absolutely rooting for the Bears to secure those two compensatory picks.

We also break down last night’s NFL Awards — no real surprises, but let’s be honest: Ben Johnson deserved more than one first‑place vote.

Plus, we review all our Big Game props courtesy of MyBookie.ag and let you know which ones we’re riding with.

4:40 Flacco

8:00 NFL Demands for SB

The Chicago Bears have added a familiar face to their coaching staff, hiring veteran assistant Eric Studesville as their new running backs coach.

Studesville actually spent time in Chicago decades ago under Dave Wannstedt and Dick Jauron — and now he’s back at Halas Hall to help shape the Bears’ ground game.

Meanwhile, Joe Flacco had some eye‑opening comments about today’s NFL rules and how far the league goes to protect quarterbacks. Does he think the game has gotten too soft? We break down his perspective and what it says about how the sport has evolved.

We also dive into a fascinating edition of The Huddle Up newsletter by Joe Pompliano, which outlined the NFL’s massive demands for any city hoping to host a Super Bowl. After reading it… let’s just say Illinois might want to pass on that opportunity.

All that and more as we dig into the Bears’ coaching update, league‑wide storylines, and the business behind the NFL’s biggest event.

33:00 Bad Bunny

The Bears still need to hire an offensive coordinator — but the real question is: what does an OC actually do in a Ben Johnson offense? With Troy Walters declining an interview, Connor Senger looks like the frontrunner for the job.

ESPN dropped a Class of 2025 redraft, so we take a look at where Colston Loveland would land now after a strong rookie season.

The NFLPA is weighing in on the possibility of an 18‑game NFL schedule, and let’s just say their thoughts don’t match what Robert Kraft has been pitching.

Plus, we’re hyped for Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show — it’s going to be a scene.
