On today's episode of The Stretch we get into the Bears 24-15 win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Black Friday. Totaling 281 yards rushing the Bears seemingly dominated the line of scrimmage, something Bears fans aren't used to. With the Bears 9-3 we ask ourselves: Regardless of expectation going into the season, are the current Chicago Bears just a playoff football team? We then look ahead to the upcoming rivalry game with the Packers next on the schedule and more.
