Today at 1:00 p.m. the Chicago Bears (4-2) will try to continue the push to seize the NFC North division, while the Washington Redskins (1-4) try to keep their faint dreams of playoff contention alive in NFC action that can be live streamed here. Bears fans can catch the radio broadcast on 105.9 FM, while Redskins fans can listen to the game on WTEM 980.
Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III has been slow to regain his form since tearing multiple ligaments in last season's playoffs, but the second-year dual threat is not giving up on 2013.
"This team is the defending NFC (East) champs and we're sitting here at 1-4 right now," Griffin said. "We have to take that medicine and move on to the next week, learn from it and not put us in the tank."
He showed flashes of his old self against the Dallas Cowboys last week, but had two killer turnovers late, while failing to throw for even one touchdown pass. "You aren't going to get any excuses from this guy," he said. "We didn't play well enough to win in all three phases of the game. We have to go out and win as a team."
While the Redskins reel, the Bears are starting to feel bullish about their group. "We see things each and every week that tell us we cannot just be good, we can be very good," coach Marc Trestman said. "But we also know there's a lot of work ahead."
In order to hold off the desperate Redskins, the Bears defense will have to ramp up its production. Chicago ranks 30th in the NFL in sacks with just eight, which isn't good news against a devastingly mobile quarterback.
"I believe the talent is there and we've just got to keep working on it," Trestman said.
