Ron Johnson

  • Date: October 13, 2022 (Thursday Night Football)
  • Location: Soldier Field (Chicago, IL)
  • Final Score: Commanders 12, Bears 7
  • The Fit: Orange Helmet / Orange Jersey / White Pants (Debut)
  • Vegas Line: Bears -1
  • Key Notes: An ugly prime-time loss against head coach Ron Rivera. Bears starting quarterback Justin Fields made some miraculous escapes but the team failed in the red zone multiple times. Darnell Mooney was stopped inches short of the goal line on the final play.

Fun Fact / Historical Context: The Pumpkin Uniforms. This was the debut of the alternate "Orange Helmet." The loss dropped the Bears to 2-4 and highlighted the desperate need for more offensive weapons, which GM Ryan Poles would address in the upcoming offseasons.
