On Tuesday evening, it was reported by NFL.com’s Tom Pelissero that the NFL was looking into different options if the league were to lose a substantial amount of revenue due to the ongoing “coronavirus.” With one of those options being withholding a portion of players’ salaries in escrow, it is safe to say that at […]

The Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears may combine to make up arguably be one of the best rivalries in the history of the NFL. The friction between these two historic franchises dates way back to 1921. In 200 played games, the Packers hold a slim advantage of 99 wins as compared to the […]

For a team as old and iconic as the Chicago Bears, it’s rather puzzling that they haven’t boasted huge names at the quarterback position. There are still some solid signal-callers that have taken snaps throughout the franchise’s 100-year history, and here are the five best. 5. Erik Kramer, 1994-1998 Kramer signed with the Bears in […]

The Chicago Bears signed veteran wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr. to a one-year contract this offseason.

All eyes will be on the quarterback position when the Chicago Bears start training camp next month.

Things have not exactly gone well for Mitchell Trubisky in his first three seasons under center for the Chicago Bears, and that is putting it lightly.

Veteran wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr. signed with the Chicago Bears in April, and he may have already disappointed fans of his new team — though not because of his on-field performance.

Chicago Bears star Khalil Mack is even more motivated entering the 2020 season, something that should be scary for the rest of the NFL North and the league.

[…]

The first season for the Chicago Bears was all the way back in 1921 and since then there have been many elite players who have been apart of their squad. Even though they have been around for almost 100 years, they have only won one Super Bowl. They probably should have a few more with […]

The Chicago Bears run game was virtually nonexistent during the 2019 NFL season.

Regardless, running back David Montgomery is still rather optimistic about his prospects in the 2020 NFL season. According to Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times, Montgomery feels much more comfortable going into Year 2 with the Bears: “An entire year of […]

The Chicago Bears have gone from Super Bowl contenders to fringe playoff contender in less than a year. It’s funny how that works sometimes, especially in the NFL. Going into 2019, I had the Bears pegged as my Super Bowl representative from the NFC. I loved their defense, and I thought (key word: thought) their […]

Kyle Long decided to call it quits with the Chicago Bears earlier this offseason after seven seasons with the organization. Amid all of the rumors surrounding his possible return, Long took to Twitter to make it clear he wouldn’t play with the current Bears coaching staff.

Mitchell Trubisky knows the Chicago Bears were one of the most feared teams in the NFL in 2018. While the offense was not perfect, it had a lot of things going for it. And it was more than enough for that elite defense. However, 2019 saw them take a major step back. A big reason […]

[…]

The Chicago Bears have a quarterback controversy on their hands heading into 2020.

Rodney Harrison has seen it all. In 15 seasons playing in the NFL, the two-time Super Bowl champion has practically witnessed all kinds of offensive schemes thrown at him.

The Chicago Bears have only won one Super Bowl title, which makes narrowing down the best team in franchise history pretty simple. However, it is somehow even easier than that for Chicago as the 1985 Bears are one of the best NFL teams of all time. Not only that, but this team could make a […]

Everyone is making their predictions as to who will be the starting quarterback for the Chicago Bears in the 2020 NFL season, including Los Angeles Clippers coach Doc Rivers.
