With Tuesday’s news that Drew Brees will be returning to the New Orleans Saints for next season, Teddy Bridgewater’s fate has essentially been sealed.

It seems like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are going to move on from Jameis Winston this offseason, and when that happens, the Chicago Bears should strongly consider bringing him in. The Bears have said they are sticking by Mitchell Trubisky, but that could be a big mistake, unless somehow he can take a big step […]

After an uplifting sophomore season with the Chicago Bears, quarterback Mitchell Trubisky had a downright depressing junior year during the 2019 campaign under center. However, the 25-year-old has one believer in former two-time NFL MVP and Super Bowl champion Kurt Warner. Warner is not out on Trubisky, the former second-overall pick of the 2017 NFL […]

The Chicago Bears were unable to replicate the success they had from the 2018 season in 2019. After going 12-4 and making the playoffs in 2018, the Bears regressed to 8-8 and failed to reach the postseason. Following their dismal campaign in 2019, the Bears are focused on bettering the roster for next season. The […]

The Chicago Bears are in an interesting situation heading into this offseason at the quarterback position. Mitchell Trubisky struggled mightily in 2019 and the team could look to bring in a veteran quarterback to push him for the starting job. That quarterback could end up being Cincinnati Bengals’ longtime starter Andy Dalton. Pro Football Focus […]

The Chicago Bears followed up a breakout 2018 season with a massively disappointing 2019. Now they will be looking to restock in the offseason. However, that’s not always the easiest task. Between re-signing your own players and staff, any new hires, free agency and the NFL Draft, there is a lot to worry about. Due […]

The Chicago Bears will be seeking to add a veteran QB this offseason to push Mitchell Trubisky. Via Jeff Dickerson of ESPN Chicago general manager Ryan Pace already committed to Trubisky as the Week 1 starter in 2020, but the Bears have to find better fallback options than Chase Daniel or Tyler Bray. Look for […]

Nick Foles has been the ultimate survivor in the NFL since 2012 and it paid off for him. Foles spent the first three years of his career with the Philadelphia Eagles and had one strong season with 27 touchdowns and two interceptions. He then crashed and burned over the next three years, spending one season […]

The Chicago Bears were one of the better teams in the NFL in 2018. They went 12-4 and won the NFC North. A quick bounce from the playoffs wasn’t enough to deter the optimism. They were a young team, very much on the rise. That took a major step backwards in 2019 though. The Bears went […]

Some players in professional sports refuse to retire from their respective sports regardless of how they’re performing, but Kyle Long of the Chicago Bears knew it was time for him to hang it up. Nearly a month after announcing his retirement from the NFL, Long explained his decision to retire. Per Cam Ellis in NBC […]

The Chicago Bears need a tight end. Greg Olsen is a free agent. It’s a match made in heaven. The Bears were one of the most disappointing teams in the NFL this past season, largely due to their offensive ineptitude. While tight end was far from their only problem, it was certainly a pretty significant […]

According to BetOnline.ag Chris Burke of The Athletic, The Bears are expected to repeat with another .500 showing in the 2020 NFL season: NFC North 2020 win […]

It’s always a good thing when players come back to the team that first drafted them, and that’s what Greg Olsen hopes to happen with the Chicago Bears after being released by the Carolina Panthers. The veteran tight end was released by the Panthers after nine successful years with the franchise, even if it wasn’t […]

The NFC North was top-heavy during the 2019 season with the Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings both making the playoffs. The Chicago Bears couldn’t get consistent play out of Mitchell Trubisky which caused them to struggle, and Matthew Stafford’s injury derailed any hope for the Lions. Each team in the NFC North believes with […]

Going into 2019, the Chicago Bears looked to be legitimate Super Bowl contenders. They were returning most of a dominant defense that led the club to 12 wins and an NFC North division title in 2018, Mitchell Trubisky appeared to be improving and the offense seemed to be on the upswing as a whole. Of […]

As the Super Bowl edges closer, fans begin reminiscing about the highs and lows they’ve seen over the years of playoff football. One of the most talked-about lows that Chicago Bears fans will begrudgingly talk about is Jay Cutler’s injury during halftime of their 2011 NFC Championship loss to the Green Bay Packers. His knee […]

The Chicago Bears struggled to get things moving on the offensive side of the ball during the 2019 season. But one thing became very clear: Allen Robinson is a No. 1 receiver. Robinson–who will be in the last year of his contract heading into 2020– recently iterated his desire to remain with the Bears for […]

The Chicago Bears had a massively disappointing 2019 season. After going 12-4 and winning the NFC North in 2018, they went just 8-8 and came in third place in 2019. Of course, that also meant the Bears did not make the playoffs. With that drop-off, there was disappointing individual play as well. Quite a few […]

Atlanta Falcons tight end Austin Hooper will be the best one available on the free-agent market this offseason, meaning he is sure to have his fair share of suitors. Hooper is one heck of a commodity, as he is just 25 years old (he doesn’t turn 26 until next November) and is coming off of […]

Devin Hester wasn’t just a kick and punt returner. He was the kick and punt returner. The Chicago Bears great redefined what was it to be a returner. He was a threat to take it to the house every time the ball headed his way. Hester never made much of an impact outside of special teams, but, […]

The cap-strapped Chicago Bears will have to find a way to either retain free agent Ha Ha Clinton-Dix or find a viable replacement to him as starting strong safety alongside Eddie Jackson. Bears receiver Allen Robinson already has an idea of what Chicago can do if Clinton-Dix leaves town: sign Eric Berry. Berry, who did […]

The Chicago Bears really struggled during the 2019 season, and now even their official Twitter account is even taking L’s.

Mitchell Trubisky is on the hot seat. While the Chicago Bears witnessed those picked after him in the 2017 NFL Draft — Patrick Mahomes and Deshaun Watson — win in the playoffs, Trubisky regressed in 2019. After a Pro Bowl 2018 campaign, Trubisky saw his passer rating sink from 95.4 to 83. His interception totals […]

The Chicago Bears are in desperate need for a tight end, and Eric Ebron may be the man for the job. On Sunday, Bears defensive lineman Akiem Hicks posted a video of the raucous crowd at Levi’s Stadium during the NFC Championship Game and asked “how lit would this be at Soldier Field?” Ebron then […]

Ha Ha Clinton-Dix has been with three different teams over the past two years, but it appears he has finally found a home with the Chicago Bears. The Bears should do whatever they possibly can to re-sign Clinton-Dix in the upcoming free agency period. Last offseason, Chicago allowed Adrian Amos to test the open market […]

The Chicago Bears‘ 2019 season fell short of expectations. After a 12-4 season in head coach Matt Nagy’s first year, the Bears regressed, ending 8-8 and outside of the playoffs.

Although the Chicago Bears fell vastly short of expectations in the 2019 NFL season, they can at least take solace in the fact that running back David Montgomery looks the part of a future workhorse. The Bears were dealing with some turnover in the offseason after parting ways with running back Jordan Howard. As a […]

The Chicago Bears ended the 2019 season with utter disappointment after missing the playoffs.

The Chicago Bears were expected by many to contend for a Super Bowl this season. Instead, they went 8-8 and missed the playoffs thanks to a dreadful offense and a regressed defense.

Kirk Cousins is finally doing it when it matters most. In Sunday’s 26-20 Wild Card win over the New Orleans Saints, the much-maligned Minnesota Vikings quarterback drilled a 43-yard pass to Adam Thielen in overtime to set up the game-winning touchdown, a toss to tight end Kyle Rudolph. The Cousins-to-Thielen connection was eerily similar to […]
