With injuries piling up at linebacker, #Bears are in a position where D'Marco Jackson & Ruben Hyppolite II could be the starters Sunday vs. Pittsburgh.

The defense has handled a wave of injuries all year. This would be a new test for Dennis Allen & Co.

Jim Jordan (1896-1988) was #BornOnThisDate.

He and wife Marian Jordan starred as FIBBER McGEE AND MOLLY on radio from 1935-1959 (and in 6 films).

Their top-rated sitcom helped popularize seminal tropes like wacky neighbors, running gags, and catchphrases. It even had spinoffs! #OTR #OldtimeRadio

Very necessary tide change for Julian Phillips, who drained two 3-pointers in the first quarter of this one.

Phillips has struggled mightily (1-for-7) in his limited minutes. Hitting those shots is one of his only ways to get a foothold in the rotation.

Big news.

#Bears activated the 21-day practice window for CB Jaylon Johnson to return from injured reserve.

He's on the mend from surgery to repair a groin injury.

Possible target return date? Dec. 7 game vs. #Packers at Lambeau Field. Maybe sooner?

As maligned as the #Bears O-line was the past couple years, it's worth taking inventory of where it is:

- 2nd in rushing
- 5th in sacks/pass attempt

It's not always pretty but LT Theo Benedet is gaining confidence and showing growth. A progress report.

What Trump has accomplished in the Chicago area is a dramatic increase in distrust of the federal government and widespread disgust toward his masked, armed thugs. On the plus side, it’s brought Chicagoans together in defense of their neighbors and in opposition to a would-be dictator.
