Week 10 game preview: Bears vs. Giants
The Chicago Bears are looking to keep their winning ways going by taking on a New York Giants squad trying to find their way. In some ways, this Giants squad is reminiscent of recent Bears teams. They’ve been stuck in the mud with a coach that it seems like the fanbase is turning on, but […]

Chicago Bears Sackwatch 2025: Week 9 vs Cincinnati Bengals
Just two sacks allowed by the Chicago Bears against the Cincinnati Bengals, and with the way this year is going, that’s a lot to break down! In 2024, Caleb Williams took a record number of sacks, but he also avoided a ton. One analytic site charted him as personally avoiding around 50. His athleticism led […]

NFL “STEP Differential” Week 9 2025
Welcome back to STEP Differential. STEP stands for Sack + Turnover(x2) + Explosive Play Differential. As I have said many times, there are no perfect statistics, so please don’t mistake this for trying to be that. However, I think it provides an incredibly interesting view into overall team health and tells an interesting story as […]

Week 10 Chicago Bears power rankings
The Chicago Bears are finding ways to win games that they’ve lost so many times in the past. I feel like I keep typing that, but it’s worth mentioning because it’s a testament to Ben Johnson and the leadership he is instilling in this team. The players have bought in, there isn’t a game they […]
Chicago Bears Make Several Roster Moves
It wasn’t the splash some wanted, but the Chicago Bears were active on the NFL’s trade deadline day when they sent a 2026 sixth-round draft pick to the Cleveland Browns for defensive end Joe Tryon-Shoyinka and a 2026 seventh-rounder. The seventh-round pick the Bears acquired from the Philadelphia Eagles was coming back. To make room […]

Hot Take Tuesday: Bears handle trade deadline perfectly
The Chicago Bears are making the wise choice. After winning an epic game against the Cincinnati Bengals, some may call it a ridiculous game, but it was a great victory nevertheless. What did that win over the Bengals tell us? First of all, it told us the Bears should be flirting with a playoff spot. […]

Caleb Williams Stat Tracker Week 9
Caleb Williams had one of the more fun game you’ll ever see from a quarterback. His final line includes 280 passing yards, 53 rushing yards, and two catches for 22 yards. One of those catches, from DJ Moore, was a 2-yard score, and the other, from Tyson Bagent, resulted in an explosive play of 20 […]
Bears Trade Rumor Tracker 2025: Chicago acquires Joe Tryon-Shoyinka
Does the Chicago Bears’ sitting at (4-3)* make them more or less likely to swing a trade before the deadline hits on Tuesday, November 4, at 3:00 p.m. CT?

Stock up, stock down: Bears-Bengals review
The Chicago Bears actually won a wild game that required scoring over 45 points. It’s truly a new era for the Bears. The defense is the problem, but the offense is carrying the weight. Overall, it’s far from perfect, but the Bears are 5-3 nearly halfway through the season. Above .500 after Halloween. That’s progress. […]
10 Thoughts on the NFL: Bears are the new Cardiac Kids, Jayden Daniels hurt again, and more
1. No one cares if the Bengals’ defense is trash or if Colston Loveland only scored that game-winning touchdown because of bad tackling. That game-winning throw by Caleb Williams was immaculate—possibly the most “superstar” throw we’ve seen from him in the NFL, considering the circumstances. Enjoy it, and enjoy these cardiac Chicago Bears being the […]

Eight lead changes, 1,071 total yards of offense, 31 fourth-quarter points, and a couple of firsts in NFL history by the Bears. Chicago shook off […]
Bears vs. Bengals Game Balls: A Dominant Rookie Performance
It was a wild Halloween weekend. In fact, I think I’ve aged about 15 years since I took my children trick-or-treating on Friday night. All of that is to say that I hope we never have to watch a ballgame like that one against the Cincinnati Bengals again. But how fun was it to see […]
