... Browns have a short week of practice before they have to play the Chicago Bears on Thursday night at Soldier Field in the “Bubble Bowl.”

 

You're probably asking yourself, “What is the Bubble Bowl?”

 

The Bubble Bowl is the last game of the NFL preseason, when the potential starters play maybe one series and then are benched for the rest of the game so that the younger players and rookies—those that are on the bubble—can prove to the coaching staff they are talented enough to make the final roster cut.

 

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has said many times that he wants to get rid of the final preseason game so that he can lengthen the NFL regular season.
