After a resounding 24-15 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles, the current Super Bowl champions, Ben Johnson’s team has proven its worth.\n\nThe Bears have won nine of their last ten games, solidifying themselves as the second seed in the National Conference (NFC).\n\nThe running back D’Andre Swift, after the triumph, declared: “We are real”.\n\nThe team, which previously avoided talking about playoffs, now embraces the possibility.\n\n

We should trust ourselves. We must not shy away from anything. We are on a roll and we can keep improving. That’s what we should think about [the playoffs]. We have a lot of dogs in the locker room and things like that, and that’s the trend we’re following, and we’re changing the culture. That’s how we should think.<\/p>Jaquan Brisker, Bears safety<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nThe post-game celebration included coach Johnson taking off his shirt and the promise of free hot dogs from a local restaurant.\n\nThe Bears’ ground attack was key, with Swift and Kyle Monangai leading the way. They achieved the second-best mark of the season in rushing yards (281).\n\nSwift and Monangai, each with a touchdown, made history. It was the first time since 1985 that the Bears had two running backs with more than 100 yards in a game.\n\n

Los Bears avanzaron al segundo puesto de la NFC con la victoria del viernes en Filadelfia, marcando su novena victoria en sus \u00faltimos 10 partidos.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\nMonangai highlighted the importance of each possession and the need to score.\n\nThe Chicago defense, with a record of 24 ball recoveries, faced an Eagles offense that had made few mistakes.\n\nKevin Byard had an interception, and Nahshon Wright forced a fumble on an Eagles “tush push” attempt.\n\n

Personally, and the defense, we take it as a challenge. I looked at the stats before. Jalen only threw one interception this season, so I took it as a challenge to try to get one. You can even watch the film on mine, I had to really go after it, and [Wright] made an incredible play to take the ball away and recover it on the tush push. We talk about that being the reason why we’re the best in the league at taking the ball away.<\/p>Kevin Byard, Bears safety<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nThe Bears’ defense featured the return of Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon, who provided solidity.\n\nGordon, after experiencing three losing seasons, sees in these victories the confirmation of the team’s goals.\n\n

I think you can see by the way we’re finishing each game that we haven’t finished. I think we have future plans to be somewhere past February, so that’s what we’re really looking for.<\/p>Kyler Gordon, Bears cornerback<\/cite><\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
