We welcome you to this preview edition of Burrs Weekly, presented by the Inside the Bird's Network for that famous guy right there,

Ray Dindra, I'm the infamous Derek Gunn.

And on a short week, people are still reeling from their devastating loss to the Dallas Cowboys, but no time the crowd was spilled

milk because they have to get right back on it on a short week and get ready for a Chicago

Bears team that has been one of the talks of the NFC and one of the talks of the National Football League.

This is a Bears team that rolls into town for a day after Thanksgiving showdown.

They are eight and three atop the NFC North.

They are riding a four-game winning streak.

And Ray, I think it's safe to say the Bears have been one of the biggest surprises in the national football league this year.

offensive coordinator in Detroit under Dan Campbell and really helped resurrect that Detroit

team, certainly helped resurrect Jared Goff as a quarterback.

And everybody knew he was kind of a head coach in waiting and finally got his opportunity

here in Chicago. So I think everybody kind of thought that he'd make the bears better.

But I don't think anybody really thought he would have them in this spot coming into Thanksgiving

week.

I mean, especially when I started the Euro and 2.

I started at the Euro and 2 and everybody got said, well, you know, it's going to take him some time.

And since then, they've won eight out of nine.

Right now they come into this game with the Eagles and they're tied.

I mean, they're both eight and three. So,

yeah, to say that Ben Johnson has ahead of schedule, yeah, I think that's real safe to say.
