Bear & Balanced: Bears Beatdown Belichick in Beantown

The Chicago Bears had another prime-time game, but this one was a lot more fun than what we're accustomed to! The Bears walloped the New England Patriots 33 to 14 in a game that may slowly help shift the national narrative surrounding Justin Fields. His numbers weren’t extraordinary, but he had a heck of a game against a Patriot team led by one of the greatest defensive minds in the history of the NFL.

It’s been a while since we got to discuss a W, so give the show a listen when we go live at 6:00 p.m. (CT)!

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.
