Hoge & Jahns: a show about the Chicago Bears

Hoge & Jahns are back to break down the top pass rushers in the NFL Draft and who could be the best fit for the Chicago Bears. With co-host Patrick Norton stepping in, the guys are joined by Eric Edholm of [NFL.com](http://nfl.com/) to dive into the latest EDGE and defensive line rankings.

The conversation focuses on top defensive end prospects like Zion Young, Keldric Faulk, Dani Dennis-Sutton, Gabe Jacas, Derrick Moore, and Malachi Lawrence, and how they could fit what the Bears need defensively. Plus, a look inside the defensive tackle class, including Peter Woods, Kayden McDonald, Kaleb Proctor, and Gracen Halton.

It’s a special Hoge & Jahns edition as Jahns is joined by Dionne Miller and Peggy Kusinski to break down one of the most intriguing stretches in recent Bears history.
They start with the main event: the early impact of Ben Johnson in Year 1 with the Chicago Bears. How different does this feel compared to past head coaches like Matt Eberflus, John Fox, Marc Trestman, and Lovie Smith? Is there any overlap with Matt Nagy, or is this something entirely new?
The conversation digs into Johnson’s influence on the roster—from a clear investment in the offensive line to adding playmakers like Colston Loveland and Luther Burden III—and what it all says about the team’s long-term vision.
They also zoom out to this moment in Chicago sports, with Caleb Williams connecting with rising stars like Pete Crow-Armstrong and Connor Bedard—and why the city feels like it’s entering a new era.
To close things out, the crew circles back to the stadium conversation and what it could mean for the future of the franchise both on and off the field. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
