Summary

The Chicago Bears improved to 9–3 after a dominant rushing performance against the Philadelphia Eagles, piling up 281 yards on the ground behind DeAndre Swift and Kyle Monungai. Despite Caleb Williams struggling with accuracy and pocket composure, the Bears’ defense controlled the game and even stopped the Eagles' trademark tush push with a critical play from Nashon Wright.

The episode also spotlighted Forgotten NFL Legend Elroy “Crazy Legs” Hirsch, celebrating his football and acting career.
