The Chicago Bears picked up a nice team win a couple of Sundays ago, and we got to discuss fun stuff for a change on Bear & Balanced.
It was fun while it lasted.
Last night, the Bears bumbled their way to a 30 to 13 loss against the Los Angeles Chargers. Chicago's defense had no answer for Charger quarterback Justin Herbert or running back Austin Ekeler, and the Bears' offense couldn't get the running game going because they were playing catchup all night.
L.A. is clearly the better team, but Chicago's mistakes ensured they'd have no chance of being competitive.
