Bears make a major splash ... will the Cubs follow suit this offseason?
The Milwaukee Brewers are World Series champions, which should make the Chicago Cubs feel some type of way ... right?
Andy Martínez, Tony Andracki and Kyle Millinowisch dissect the Brewers' championship and how it affects -- or should affect -- the Cubs moving forward. Does it change how we view the 2026 Cubs season? Will it have an impact on how Jed Hoyer and Co. conduct business this offseason?
The panel analyzes the biggest takeaways from the playoffs and what those takeaways mean for the Cubs. Plus, each host provides their biggest offseason prediction for the Cubs' winter.
On the Bears front, they swung big with the Jeffery Simmons trade to shore up the weakest area of the roster. What does that do to the team's Super Bowl chances and can the Cubs take some lessons from their city counterpart?

Andy Martínez, Tony Andracki and Kyle Millinowisch attempt to answer this on the latest Windy City Breakdown Podcast while also providing their top takeaways from the Bears victory and Williams' ascension into the "elite" realm of Bears quarterbacks.
Plus, Luther Burden III's growth into a No. 1 receiver, Rome Odunze's relatively disappointing career to date and what are the Bears' chances of winning the NFC North?
On the Cubs front, where do they rank among MLB's best teams? The panel debates, with wildly differing views.
