Before getting into this week’s Sackwatch, an update to my breakdown from last week. After some well-thought-out comments in the comment section, and realizing I haven’t had many sacks that I’ve broken down where taking a sack was the right play, I’m changing the two sacks I put on Caleb Williams to Sacks Happen. It […]

Hello Chicago Bears fans! This is a special edition of the GBB column, as I relate not only the good, the better, and the best of the game against the New Orleans Saints, but I also tell you what it was like to be there, in person, for the first-time home game, in Chicago, at […]
As the Chicago Bears prepare for the seventh game of the season against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, both teams have released their first official injury report for week eight. Five Bears were listed as DNP (did not practice): RB Roschon Johnson (back), TE Cole Kmet (back), WR DJ Moore (hip), DB Tyrique Stevenson (shoulder), […]
During the Chicago Bulls’ Media Day, Matas Buzelis made his individual goal for the 2025-26 season very clear: “I want to win Most Improved Player this year. That’s what I’m striving for.”
The forward has oozed confidence since well before he heard his name called on draft night in June of 2024. As far as he’s concerned, there isn’t a mountain he can’t climb, including the summit that is one of the NBA’s most prestigious awards.
To his credit, all Buzelis has done is back up his conf...
A handful of players were held out of practice on the first Chicago Bears injury report of Week 8.
Brace yourselves. This one isn’t pretty.

The Chicago Bears will take their four-game winning streak into Baltimore this weekend, and the biggest question for the Ravens remains whether or not quarterback Lamar Jackson will be ready.
Jackson hasn’t practiced since suffering a strained hamstring on September 28, but according to Ravens beat writer (The Athletic) Jeff Zrebic , Jackson jogged onto the practice field today and did some warmup throws and light running while the media was present.
Jackson’s appearance on the pract...
We’ll get our first Bears injury report of the week later on Wednesday. And when we get it, the first name I will be looking for is that of Grady Jarrett . The two-time Pro Bowl defensive lineman is in his first season with the Bears and was brought in as a free agent to help stabilize the middle of the defense. Unfortunately, injuries have limited him to just three games. Things were trending toward Jarrett playing in Chicago’s Week 7 game against the New Orleans Saints, but Jarrett was a lat...
A random thing occurred to me today for whatever reason: the Chicago Cubs are about to have a TON of open spots on their 40-man roster.
By the time free agency rolls around, teams have had to bring injured players (60-day IL) back onto the 40-man roster, and it can feel mighty crowded. But then free agents are removed from the 40-man, and a team typically dips back under the 40-player limit without having to dump anyone at that particular moment.
Sure enough, that’ll happen for the C...
