Carmen and Jurko open a loaded Chicago sports week with Bears-Eagles on Monday Night Football and playoff baseball starting Tuesday for both the Cubs and White Sox. Caleb Williams is out with a grade two hamstring strain, Tyson Bagent will serve as the backup and Case Keenum gets the start against a Philadelphia defense that still remembers being run over by the Bears last year. The guys discuss how Ben Johnson can win with his third-string quarterback, why the Bears need to lean on the run game and how Vic Fangio may adjust after last season’s 281-yard rushing performance. They also break down the White Sox heading to Houston, the Cubs going to San Diego and why both wild-card matchups come with real challenges. The hour closes with President’s Cup talk, late-night Cubs complaints, key Bears-Eagles trench matchups and the importance of cleaning up special teams.
