## Resource

The Chicago Bears are an offensive-dominated team with head coach Ben Johnson at the helm, but is the defensive line a sleeping giant for defensive coordinator Dennis Allen? Allen spoke today at Halas Hall and called it one of the team’s deepest position groups. Have we not been giving the D-Line enough credit to this point? Later, we dive into a piece from Mike Sando, where he polled anonymous NFC executives and asked them to predict the NFC standings. Where did the Bears land in those predictions? WE also get important practice updates, including Kyle Monangai resuming running. Join Adam Hoge and Greg Braggs Jr. on the CHGO Bears Podcast. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
