Week 16 for the Chicago Bears is the type of ballgame that gets you fired up, even from the sidelines.
With a division title up in the air, for the Bears, this week isn't just another divisional matchup; it's a chance to put a stranglehold on one of football's most competitive groups of teams this fall, while sending a message to the other sideline that you've arrived.
As you begin to peel the layers back for two teams that just saw each other a few weeks ago, the spotlight falls squarely on C.J. Gardner-Johnson, the Bears’ defensive chess piece who operates as a hybrid safety, linebacker, and slot corner depending on down and distance.
