I’ve done my best to never get too high or too low with this year’s Bears team. Whether it was after the embarrassing Detroit loss or the thrilling Dallas blowout win, I’ve tried to always remember that this is just year one of Ben Johnson’s tenure, and that his process is going to take some time to fully set in and revamp the culture. This is a year-long development plan for Caleb Williams and the rest of this young roster. There’s going to be some really fun moments, and some annoying ones. ...

Here’s hoping National RBs Day becomes a thing in the future.
If it does, then Chicago Bears fans will likely remember it fondly because of the contributions of running backs D’Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai in the team’s Week 7 victory against the New Orleans Saints.

Maybe it wasn’t a work of art, but the Chicago Bears found a way to win (by multiple scores) a total trap game in nasty conditions. That’s four straight wins for the first time in seven years.
A random combination thought about the Cubs’ bullpen group that I want to keep in mind for the offseason. For the last several years running, two things have been true every single year. First, the Cubs find reclamation relievers who wind up being big contributors. Second, younger/newer guys who w...

I said it to lead off player grades as well, but this was one of the weirder-feeling Bears wins that I can remember in a long time (granted, there haven’t been many wins in general in recent memory). Similar to the Washington game, the offense was gifted a few chances to put the game out of reach early, but again came up with threes instead of sixes, and took a couple of penalties that shot them in the foot.

They’ve done it! The Chicago Bears have just secured their fourth consecutive win. It is the first time this franchise has accomplished that feat since 2018. Do I care that the streak has come against the Cowboys, Raiders, Commanders, and Saints? Not one bit. We, on the whole, have been through a lot since then … so I am not going to take it for granted when this team goes on a winning streak. It was ugly, but the result was certainly enjoyable.

This is one of the weirder Bears wins I can remember in some time. They came out flying and dominated early. Let things get dicey late, but the Saints also never really got within an arm’s length. Not the cleanest win we will ever see, but never apologize for winning in the NFL. Four in a row.
