The Chicago Bears have a problem. Yes, that is outside of the team being 4-9 and having to play the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night. The Bears, like several other teams in the NFL, are currently experiencing a COVID-19 outbreak. On Thursday, the Bears announced that six players were added to the Reserve/COVID-19 list along with coordinators Bill Lazor (offense), Sean Desai (defense) and Chris Tabor (special teams) being placed on the COVID protocol.
Currently, the Bears have 12 players on the COVID list, and there’s no telling where that number could be as the week progresses. Still, the Bears have a divisional game to prepare for on Monday.
The Chicago Audible recorded an in-depth preview of this primetime game. Nicholas Moreano and Mason West start with an in-depth discussion on the Bears’ COVID-19 problems and how the updated league-wide rules impact the team.
Then the guys recap what the Bears did well and struggled with against the Green Bay Packers. They also discuss the concerns the Vikings’ defense presents to the Bears’ offense.
In the defensive portion of the podcast, Moreano and West highlight how the Bears will try to stop running back Dalvin Cook and wide receiver Justin Jefferson. The guys did their best.
Of course, The Chicago Audible gave some bold predictions, their game pick, and how confident they are in this matchup.
