Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:13:48 GMT

Maya Akai of SportsZone Chicago joined "9 Good Minutes" this week to talk about the Bears along with the White Sox and Bulls on WGN News Now.CHICAGO - At last the streak is over for the Bears, ending just short of a year after it began.But after 14 consecutive losses, there is still a lot for this team to prove, starting with their ability to get a winning streak going. Like many things for the Bears when it comes to success, it's been a while since they pulled that off.The team has yet to win consecutive games under head coach Matt Eberflus, last winning two in a row under Matt Nagy in Weeks 16 & 17 in 2021. They'll have a decent shot to do so when they host the Vikings on Sunday at Noon at Soldier Field as they face a team that's also 1-4 on the season. They'll roll into Chicago without their best player, wide receiver Justin Jefferson, who is on injured reserve with a hamstring injury. Yet a win doesn't solve everything for the Bears, who endured a nightmare start to the year...

If navigating through large crowds in Salem, Massachusetts, New Orleans, or Savannah, Georgia, sounds too scary, consider lesser-known spooky cities that deliver plenty of Halloween fright and fun.Stacker analyzed l...
