FOJ 62 - 25 Point Fourth Quarter?! Bears Playoff Magic is Real

FOJ SHOW

About this episode

Jeff and Jason celebrate a "glorious" Sunday night following an emotional rollercoaster of a Chicago Bears playoff victory over the Green Bay Packers. After a disappointing first half that left both hosts feeling they were playing with "house money," the Bears pulled off a historic 25-point fourth-quarter comeback. The guys break down Caleb Williams’ record-setting performance, the emergence of Colston Loveland as a superstar tight end, and the "exorcism" of finally beating their arch-rivals when everything was on the line. They also look ahead to a tough matchup against the Rams, discuss the chaotic NFL coaching carousel, and recap a massive weekend for Chicago sports that included the Cubs signing star third baseman Alex Bregman.
