Bears fans, this is Take the North. What's the reason, Doc? It's here. With your host. All these guys. Dan Wiederer. The whole key to sustaining success in this league is to have a quarterback play that is top tier and can consistently push you down those roads. And Mark Grody. We're allowed to at this point, Bears fans are allowed to right now, dream big and predict what you want out of the season. We're going to take the North and never give it back. Hello again, everybody, and welcome into the Take the North podcast coming at you from Hallis Hall on the Thursday of the week before the Bears take on the mighty L.A. Rams in the divisional round of the NFC Playoffs Soldier Field Sunday night at 530, along with Dan Weider of The Athletic.
I am Mark Grody of 670 The Score. Dan, what's going on, man? Not much. Good energy inside this building here at House Hall today. Better energy than we've had here trying to get this podcast started with some pre-snap penalty issues. I've got Wi-Fi issues in the basement here at House Hall. You're dropping stuff over there in your little closets. But we're going to get on track here, and we're going to let these people know what they need to know about Bears-Rams Sunday evening, Soldier Field Divisional Round. I mean, part of it is, it's like, it's just nonstop out here with the activities. And I know Dan, you probably are writing more than you normally would have during the regular season. I'm probably delivering a little bit more than I like.
It's all stepping up a notch out here at house hall. And that's just, there's an urgency out here. There really is wonderful. I'm not complaining about it, but there is just a lot going on out here at house hall, including the, a real injury report the first real injury report of the week because the first one was a walkthrough the first one was an estimate but the real workout today which did occur on field one out here at hallis hall today in the bright sunshine it was chilly but they had the sunshine to offset some of that here is what you need to know on the injury report dj moore and roma dunzey both were out there practicing Each was in a limited capacity, though. D.J. Moore with the knee, Roma Dunzey with the foot.
Nick McLeod, just like the other day, shows up as a DNP, did not practice because of his groin injury. And then the guys that were full participants, including C.J. Gardner-Johnson, Braxton Jones, Ahmed Ogbagbamiga, Jalen Reeves-Maben, Joe Tryon-Shoyinka. All full participants in practice, good to see it. Can't imagine that Roma Dunze won't play. I did not see DJ Moore in the locker room today for the Bears, so didn't get a chance to chat with him, but I would imagine that he'll be good to go as well.
