The Chicago Bears are coming off a crushing road loss against the Green Bay Packers, but head coach Ben Johnson knows his team has to quickly adjust their focus to the next task.
That would be Sunday's home matchup against a struggling Cleveland Browns team.
Earlier this week, Johnson told reporters that putting such a bitter defeat behind them quickly is paramount to reaching the goals they still have for this season:
Considering the Bears finish with their schedule with the Detroit Lions, San Francisco 49ers, and a rematch with the Packers, it would be easy for them to look past a lesser opponent like the Browns.
But that's a dangerous game in a league that can surprise you every week, and Johnson clearly wants to ensure that his team has the right mindset in their preparations.
If the Bears can handle what should be a winnable game this week, it could give them back some confidence and positive momentum for the rest of the season.
