The Houston Texans and the Chicago Bears are looking to prove in Week 3 they aren’t just inconsistent squads with new coaches. A win at Soldier Field for either side can infuse optimism back into their seasons.
For the Texans, the 0-1-1 record is obtuse, and while they technically have a winning percentage, Houston still feels like a loser because they haven’t cracked the goose egg in the win column.
The Bears are in similar but more optimistic territory. At 1-1, the team is at a crossroads where they can catch a winning streak to validate the Justin Fields selection and the Matt Eberflus hire.
To help preview the Week 3 tilt between the Texans and Bears, Alyssa Barbieri, managing editor of the Bears Wire, stopped by to answer a few questions about the 1-1 Bears.
