NFL WEEK 17: CHICAGO BEARS VS. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS — The Bears already have a playoff spot and a division title locked up going into their Week 17 matchup against the 49ers. However, don’t tell players on this team that they have nothing to play for this week. Chicago’s football team is playing to maintain its playoff positioning. A win tonight would mean that Ben Johnson’s squad could finish no lower than the No. 2 seed. Plus, a dub out in Cali tonight would keep hope alive for the first-year...

Ben Johnson is a fascinating person to listen to when it comes to talking football.
Even as the flu bug attacks, the Chicago Bears are riding high entering their Week 17 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. They officially clinched a playoff spot last week. And on Saturday night, the Bears also claimed their first NFC North title since 2018. Given their success, you can expect to see (and hear) from more players and coaches in the coming days and weeks leading into their playoff run (...

The Panthers didn’t do the Bears any favors this afternoon. Carolina fell to Seattle, eliminating the cleanest path for Chicago to take control of the NFC’s top seed on Sunday night. But while the door didn’t swing open, it’s not closed, either — the Bears still very much have a route to the No. 1 seed in the NFC.
Here’s where things stand:
The Bears (11-4) are guaranteed to finish as either the 1, 2, or 3 seed in the NFC. They entered the day sitting at No. 2 behind the Seahawks (12...

Are we about to get a Chicago Bears Flu Game?
The team is getting some good news on the health front. Brad Biggs shares the latest:
#Bears RT Darnell Wright is en route to Santa Clara. He did not travel with the team Saturday because of an illness. Wright is questionable and his availability will be a game-time decision. He's had a Pro Bowl-caliber season and this is potentially good news. — Brad Biggs (@BradBiggs) December 28, 2025

The NFC North banner is already hanging — at least figuratively — after the Bears clinched the division Saturday night thanks to Baltimore’s win over Green Bay. But the most meaningful stakes of the season are still ahead. With a win over the San Francisco 49ers tonight and a Panthers upset of the Seahawks this afternoon, Chicago would wake up Monday holding the No. 1 seed in the NFC.
And on the eve of the biggest December game the franchise has played in years, the Bears may be catching ...

To follow up the intro from Saturday’s BN Bears Bullets lead-in: My first pho experience was great. Tremendous. I’m sure I’ll like it more once I get the hang of using chop sticks.
In case you missed it: The Chicago Bears are the 2025 NFC North champs ! And in doing so, they became the 20th team to put up a one-year worst-to-first turnaround in the last 23 years. Because I’m sure you’re curious, the Bears have done it three times (2005, 2018, 2025).

It wasn’t just what Ryan Poles said in his opening presser as Chicago Bears general manager, but the moment immediately following his last word that stuck with me: “We’re going to take the North and never give it back,” he said, followed by a flipping of the page as he continued his remarks. In reality, […]

DA BEARS ARE THE NFC NORTH CHAMPIONS . That’s not the end goal in a season that has become as compelling as this one, but it’s absolutely something you want to achieve when the year starts. And something very few would’ve predicted back in September. So I’m gonna smile about it. (Now go get that number one seed …. )
We’ll have more analysis on the Hunter Harvey signing , because, like I said, I love the potential upside there. Here, though, I wanted to talk about the various implication...
