When the Dallas Cowboys travel to take on the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field, many will deem this game a “trap game”. On the surface, that is a valid point. The Bears finished 5-12 last season, fired their head coach during the season during a Thanksgiving Day loss to the Detroit Lions, and for the most part, appeared disjointed for the remainder of the season. That said, the Bears boast a lot of talent on their roster that with the proper coaching could become a formidable sleeper in the NFL.
Chicago brought in former Lions’ offensive coordinator Ben Johnson to take the reins of the franchise and guide them into a new era of playing in a fiercely competitive NFC North division.
