About this episode

The Bears are coming off a 23-12 win over the Jets, and the Bleacher Nation Bears Podcast briefly looks back at what went right before shifting almost entirely to one of the biggest games on the schedule.Hosts Luis Medina, Patrick Flowers, and Matt Rooney turn their attention to the Week 5 rivalry matchup against the Green Bay Packers, where confidence is running high. The guys discuss why they like how Chicago matches up, what has them feeling encouraged about the direction of the offense, and why the offensive line has become one of the biggest reasons for optimism.They also look at how the Bears might attack Green Bay through the air, including whether this could be the week Chicago finally leans into more double-move opportunities for Rome Odunze and takes advantage of his ability to win vertically.Twitter: @PatrickKFlowers, @mrooney23, @lcm1986Get your Cubs Coverage at https://www.bleachernation.com/cubs Get your Bears Coverage at https://www.bleachernation.com/bears Get your Bulls Coverage at https://www.bleachernation.com/bulls Get your Blackhawks Coverage at https://www.bleachernation.com/blackhawks Get Sports Betting Updates, Info, & Tips at https://www.bleachernation.com/betting Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
