The Chicago Bears will face off against the Washington Commanders on Thursday Night Football, where they’re still looking for their first win of the season (and in a long time).
The Bears have lost 14 consecutive games dating back to Oct. 24, 2022, and they desperately need a win. Will the offense build on their performance from last week? Can the defense find a way to make a stand shorthanded in the secondary?
Here’s how you can tune into the Week 5 matchup:
