    D Stark N Cope Chicago Sports Podcast Episode 1.22: Manic (over Bagent, Bulls) depression

    We talk about Tyson Bagent's success in the confines of Luke Getsy's terrible system, and wonder if he can somehow summon the arm strength to be a viable NFL QB. We then move on to our NBA preview, the blase Bulls, and Dan's severe case of Wemby mania.

    D Stark N Cope Chicago Sports Podcast Episode 1.21: They still suck and now Fields is hurt

    After one of the more disappointing results in an Eberflus era that's full of them, we're both kinda done. This coaching staff is straight up garbage, the franchise has ruined Justin Fields, and now we've got no choice but to root for Division II Rudy. Good times in Chicago.

    D Stark N Cope Chicago Sports Podcast Episode 1.20: The Bears have won!! The Bears have won!!!

    The Bears shock the world--or at least the two of us--with a complete victory over the Commanders in Washington. We talk about DJ Moore's star turn, Fields getting the ball out more quickly, and some guys on the defense--most notably, some of the rookies--looking very good. We then (finally!) close the book on Chase Claypool's disastrous Bears tenure and mourn the loss of one of the NFL's all-time greats in Dick Butkus.

    D Stark N Cope Chicago Sports Podcast Episode 1.19: Bears Bumbling Their Way to a New Quarterback to Ruin

    The Bears did it again, this time snapping defeat from the jaws of victory in a 31-28 loss to the nearly equally inept Denver Broncos. We try to put a positive spin on this in terms of their draft capital, but still find there's little reason to be optimistic about this organization. So we once again revisit the disastrous Chase Claypool trade, rank the Bears coaches since Lovie Smith, and even have a Taylor Swift-themed Shake It Off.

    D Stark N Cope Chicago Sports Podcast Episode 1.18: Worst. Team. EVER?

    After another demoralizing loss that we both mostly avoided, we dissect this awful Bears team and try to find some path forward. At 38 minutes we transition to the Cubs, where Noah admits he does not, in fact, understand how percentages work.

    D Stark N Cope Chicago Sports Podcast Episode 1.17: Losing Faith in Fields

    After another disheartening Bears loss, Dan is flat-out done with the coaching staff and Luke Getsy in particular, the only reason he hasn't completely closed the book on Justin Fields. Noah is clinging to some lingering shreds of hope, but both agree there's no reason to believe in this franchise as long as it remains in the McCaskeys' clutches.
