Onions!!!!! Via @JosinaAnderson on X

What happened: Josina Anderson backed Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson as worth every penny on Thursday, Oct. 22, punctuating her assessment of the late-game execution with a one-word 'Onions' nod. The endorsement followed Chicago's 30-24 regular-season victory.

Why it matters: Aggressive late-game decision-making under Johnson has helped stabilize Chicago six games into the 2026 campaign. Securing a fourth win keeps the Bears inside the early NFC playoff picture with a winning record.

By the numbers: Chicago Bears: 4-2 record, No. 6 seed, W1 streak, 30-24 final on Oct. 22, 2026.

What to watch: Chicago enters a mini-bye after the Thursday night win before resuming regular-season action next week.
