Which Chicago Bears position group are you most confident in?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year, we ask questions of the most plugged-in Chicago Bears fans and fans across the country.

Chicago Bears’ Tight Ends Coach Jim Dray is a Breakout Candidate
Well-coached and successful teams, which the Chicago Bears now appear to be, always run the risk of their assistant coaches being hired away. The Ben Johnson era was just a season old, and the Bears lost offensive coordinator Declan Doyle to the Baltimore Ravens and running backs coach Eric Bieniemy to the Kansas City Chiefs. […]

Ben Johnson thinks D’Andre Swift has more in the tank for Chicago Bears
It might be time to rethink our expectations for veteran Chicago Bears running back D’Andre Swift heading into a critical 2026 campaign. Some of us (pointing squarely at myself here) have been skeptical of Swift’s upside in the Bears offense long-term, even after he experienced a monster turnaround last season when Ben Johnson, his former […]

Chicago Bears 2026 Training Camp Position Breakdown: Defensive End

Chicago Bears Question of the Day: Which NFC North rival makes you most nervous?
