The New York Giants square off with the Chicago Bears on Friday for a preseason week 2 matchup. Although the Giants were one of the worst teams in the NFL last year (and lost Odell Beckham Jr. this offseason), there’s a lot to be excited about when it comes to their future. That was shown […]

The Chicago Bears are not known as an offensive team, as their stout defense is what carried them to 12 wins and an NFC North division title this past year.

The Chicago Bears are fairly confident in their receiving corps heading into the 2019 season.

Preseason is a weird time to be an NFL fan. On the one hand, it’s football, and football is great. On the other, it’s not the best football; it’s filled with players on the roster bubble running a vanilla scheme both offensively and defensively. Nonetheless, for the football junkies, it’s something, including Chicago Bears fans. […]

The running back position is becoming devalued in today’s NFL, which is centered around the passing game. Despite that, the Chicago Bears selected David Montgomery in this year’s draft.

The Chicago Bears fell just short of advancing to the Divisional Round of the playoffs in 2018, and as the Bears begins preseason play, they have high hopes for this 2019 season.

Many believe that the Chicago Bears championship window is just opening, but that isn’t how Akiem Hicks is approaching it, and he knows how important it is that the team wins now.

The Chicago Bears experienced some turnover this offseason with former defensive coordinator Vic Fangio leaving to become the next head coach of the Denver Broncos.

According to Robert Zegliniski on […]

Not to patronize […]

The Chicago Bears are considered Super Bowl contenders heading into 2019, and while their offense is improved, the main reason so many people like them is because of their defense.

Bettors in Las Vegas have been taking advantage of Trubisky’s favorable odds to win MVP this year. According to Michael Silver of NFL.com, he certainly understands […]

Chicago Bears running back Tarik Cohen shouldn’t be classified as a back; he’s an all-around weapon who contributes whether he’s returning kicks, running the rock, passing the ball, or catching passes.
