Welcome into the Charter podcast brought to you by St. Xavier University. My name is Ruthie

Polinsky and I am joined by Alex Shapiro on the Charter podcast on this beautiful, lovely,

stunning byweek for the Chicago Bears who are four and two heading into the

biweek, which I think, Alex, if you would have told Bears fans before the season started

that they would be four and two after that trip to London, they'd be pretty happy.

Yeah, four and two is, you know, about as good as you can hope for, right? Obviously, six and oh is the best that you can hope for. But considering the situation that the bears were in with new quarterback, new offensive coordinator, a lot of new pieces on that offense, we knew the defense was going to carry the way how much could the offense contribute.

The offense has come along very quickly.

We've watched it happen before our eyes.

Getting that win in London against a Jaguars team that knows how to do it is no small task.

So riding into the buy with the vibes of the win streak, the vibes of leaving London with a win, four and two.

It is a wonderful place for the Bears to be in right now.

And when you look at it from the idea of we didn't know what this was going to look like,

but the Bears won the games that they were supposed to win with the exception of maybe indie, right?

Like you wish they would have had that one.

But just I think in general, just to see the progression of the team from week one to where they are now and the progress of the quarterback and the development of the

quarterback. We're sitting pretty pretty, you know, as, as I think we wanted to be, you know,

heading into this bi-week. So before we get into more of kind of our bi-week thoughts,

we have to talk about the big news that broke after we taped

our last edition of the Charter podcast, which is that the Bears Commanders game that is

slated for next weekend in our nation's capital has been flexed into the national television

spot on CBS with the number one crew of Jim

Nance, Tony Romo, Tracy Wolfson on the call.
