Keeping it Bear & Balanced about Bears vs Commanders

The Chicago Bears vs the Washington Commanders on Thursday Night Football means a special Friday edition of Bear & Balanced. Jeff Berckes and I will be live on our 2nd City Gridiron YouTube channel talking about that ugly 12 to 7 loss.

This L wasn’t as encouraging as the L they took in Minnesota, but were there any positives to take from the game?

We go over the good, the bad, the ugly, and more tonight at 6:30 p.m. CT on our latest show.

Here's our usual bullet point outline of Bear & Balanced.

• Intro: We'll both share some general thoughts about the game.
• The Portillo's Trench Tribute: This is our weekly pick for lineman of the game, and thanks to our friends over at Portillo's, we'll be giving out a $100 gift card to one lucky fan each week this season. WE GIVE $100 AWAY EVERY WEEK, SO TUNE IN FOR YOUR CHANCE!
• Sweet Tweets: We're both active on social media — so be sure you're all following us at @gridironborn & @wiltfongjr — and we highlight one Twitter interaction/Tweet each week.
• Caught up in a numbers game: This segment has us featuring one number/statistic that we found interesting from the game.
• The Fields Report: We always talk about quarterback Justin Fields right before we take our commercial break.
• The 3 Bears: You all know the story of the Three Bears, right? In this porridge-themed portion of the show, we give our picks for the Bear that was hot, the Bear that was cold, and the Bear that was just right in the game against Washington.
