Join your fellow Windy City Gridiron members right here all night to talk about the Chicago Bears (6-2) vs. the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-5). The Bears are looking for their third straight prime time victory, but they’ll need to buck a couple of trends.
The Bears haven’t won on Sunday Night Football since December 9, 2018, against the Los Angeles Rams. That was the Santa’s Sleigh game, where Mitchell Trubisky threw a touchdown pass to offensive lineman Bradley Sowell.
The Bears haven’t beaten the Bucs
since October 8, 2020, when Khalil Mack sacked Tom Brady twice and delivered a hip toss to Tampa left tackle Tristan Wirfs.
Tampa Bay has won 3 of its last 4 and has one of the best defenses in the NFL. This will be another fun battle of wits between Chicago’s Ben Johnson and the Bucs Todd Bowles.
