Two teams with the same record will take the gridiron at Soldier Field to prove to their doubters that they’re the real deal. The Bucs won three in a row since dropping the season opener, while the Bears just lost their first game of the year.

Then again, all the cameras and narratives will focus on that Super Bowl LII rematch between Nick Foles and Tom Brady. This time, however, they’ll be wearing different threads and starting for another team.

Chicago Bears vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Storylines

The Chicago Bears finally made the right call to bench Mitch Trubisky, and while there are still plenty of doubts regarding Foles’ ability to lead this team, their offense has looked less stagnant with him under center.

Chicago’s defense continues to dominate with Khalil Mack as their top pass-rusher and they promise to give Tom Brady a lot of trouble on Thursday Night, especially if Chris Godwin is once again unable to suit up.

Brady is coming off one of the best performances of his career. He had 5 touchdown passes for the first time since 2017 and found 5 different receivers for every score for the first time in his career.

He’s clearly developed some strong rapport with Mike Evans and Scotty Miller, while Ronald Jones II has done an outstanding job on the ground to provide some balance to their offense. Notably, OJ Howard will be out for the season so we may finally see Rob Gronkowski getting more involved in the passing game.
