The Bears continued their winning ways on Sunday, defeating the Steelers 31-28 in a tight matchup that saw Chicago improve to 8-3 in front of their home crowd.

The Chicago Bears are beyond “in the hunt” for a playoff spot, as they are leading the NFC North. It gives them an upper hand, but we know there is still so far to go.

I hope Montez Sweat gets serious consideration for NFC Defensive Player of the Week honors for his efforts in the Chicago Bears’ Week 12 win against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Sweat stuffed the stat sheet to the tune of 2 sacks, 3 solo tackles, 3 tackles-for-loss, 1 forced fumble, 1 fumble recovery, and 2 quarterback hits. Heck, I think Montez Sweat would have been a virtual lock for NFC Defensive Player of the Week honors had he picked up a third sack, but Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolp...

With one game left in November, the Chicago Bears are 8-3. That alone is worth celebrating. Don’t let the opponents’ records bring down the celebration. Don’t let the haters and box score-watchers bring you down. The Bears are in first place in the NFC North. The other teams aren’t because they haven’t won enough games. […]

The good news is that it seems like Bears cornerbacks Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon are close to returning to the lineup. And while I wouldn’t call a potential logjam at cornerback “bad” news, the way Nahshon Wright has been playing lately has me considering if he has done enough to keep his job as a starting boundary corner.

The Pittsburgh Steelers fell to 6-5 after a tough loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The loss dropped them out of first place in the AFC North — as well as playoff seeding entirely — with the once 1-5 Baltimore Ravens seizing control of the division for the first time this season. As Mike […]

The Tuesday of Thanksgiving Week always feels like a Thursday. What’s up with that? Even though the NFL Draft isn’t top of mind right now, I am still curious about (1) where the Bears are picking and (2) who they could target. Hence, I am starting to put my eyes on more mock drafts. Chicago’s football team targeting an edge defender makes sense . But it is going to take some time for my mind to get a grasp on the concept of the Bears drafting in the 20s. I didn’t watch Monday N...

After their fourth loss in six games, frustration is beginning to set in for the Pittsburgh Steelers’ faithful. The black and gold dropped Sunday’s contest to Chicago, despite several chances to claim victory.

With their last three wins coming against teams currently in NFC playoff spots, the Los Angeles Rams are playing outstanding football. Their six-game winning streak is the best in the Conference, and L.A. quarterback Matthew Stafford is the current favorite for NFL MVP. With a better conference record, the Philadelphia Eagles have the edge over […]

When the WCG team was asked to make our record predictions following the 2025 NFL schedule release, I wanted to take a cautious approach to the season, despite feeling optimistic about the coaching staff and the new additions to the roster. I’d simply been burnt by this team hanging the “offseason champs” banner too many […]

But the Steelers caught a break when Chicago’s Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon remained on injured reserve after practicing in full on Friday.

The Chicago Bears earned another victory on Sunday, bringing their win total to eight for the first time since 2020. This time, it was a 31-28 victory at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Well, that was a fun one! It wasn’t pretty all day on Sunday for the Bears, but again, they were opportunistic on defense, efficient on offense, and when it got close late, they never blinked. Despite being shorthanded for what seems like the entirety of the season defensively, that unit never backs down. Whenever the offense makes a mistake, they almost always seem to bounce back and not let those mistakes add up. Coaching matters a whole lot in the NFL, and the Bears have been...

The Steelers saved us from buying in and made sure their annual collapse came about a month early. They’ve gone from 4-1 with a massive lead over the 1-5 Baltimore Ravens to 6-5 and out of the playoff picture. The loss to the Chicago Bears highlighted a lot of the same issues that have plagued […]

On a day when Chicago Bears rookies were seen early and often, no one impressed me more than Ozzy Trapilo. A second-round pick from the Bears’ 2025 NFL Draft class, Trapilo was thrust into the starting lineup at left tackle because Theo Benedet suffered an injury during the practice week that caused him to be unavailable for the team’s Week 12 win against the Pittsburgh Steelers. With Benedet out and Braxton Jones still on injured reserve, it left Trapilo as the top option to start as the...

The most impressive thing about the Chicago Bears is that, even though they’re tied for the second-best record in the NFC at (8-3), they can be even better. There’s so much more room for the offense to grow, and the defense should be getting healthier for the playoff push. This has been an opportunistic team […]
