Caleb Williams has a developing relationship with fellow rookie Rome Odunze, but the Chicago Bears probably need to move past Matt Eberflus. With a fresh direction for the organization, here are three reasons Williams is the future despite the Bears’ horrific 2024 campaign. Chicago started the season with a 4-2 record. Things looked good. But […]

The Chicago Bears may be in the midst of a five-game losing streak, but the Chicago Bears’ pair of star rookies are a tight duo. Wide receiver Rome Odunze has unsurprisingly emerged as one of Caleb Williams’ favorite targets during both of their rookie campaigns, ranking second on the team in receptions (39), yards (518), […]

Since the Chicago Bears fired offensive coordinator Shane Waldron and Thomas Brown stepped in, franchise quarterback Caleb Williams has been the biggest beneficiary, especially against the Minnesota Vikings. After trailing 27-16, Williams led a scoring drive, and a two-point conversion to cut the lead to three. Then, a successful onside kick led to a 48-yard […]

The Chicago Bears have not had the 2024 season that they originally imagined. Chicago is 4-7 heading into Week 13 and is in the basement of the NFC North division standings. The Bears had a chance to get off the mat in Week 12, but fell just short against the Vikings in overtime. Vikings head […]

The Minnesota Vikings secured a thrilling 30-27 overtime victory against the Chicago Bears on Sunday, extending their winning streak to four games. However, for Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison, the game brought moments of unease as he watched his former USC teammate and current Bears quarterback Caleb Williams orchestrate an impressive performance. “He had me […]

Despite a 4-7 record and an ongoing five-game losing streak, the Chicago Bears still have a positive point differential this season, which almost seems impossible until you spend the time breaking it down. Five of Chicago’s seven losses have come by six or fewer points, including three that have come down to the final play […]

The Chicago Bears continued a recent string of heartbreaking losses with another crusher on Sunday as a frantic fourth quarter comeback fell just short. The Bears made up an 11-point deficit with just a few minutes remaining to force overtime before losing 30-27 on a game-winning field goal. Despite another nail-biting loss that will be […]

The Chicago Bears needed something of a miracle to tie the score after facing an 11-point deficit to get their Week 12 game to overtime against the Minnesota Vikings. While they executed to near perfection in those two minutes to tie the score, their performance in the extra session was brutal and they dropped the […]

In the Chicago Bears’ Week 12 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings, first-year quarterback Caleb Williams has officially claimed the franchise’s rookie passing record. Heading into this matchup, Williams needed just 178 yards to overtake Mitch Trubisky (2,193) as the team’s leading passer as a rookie. And with a 37-yard screen to DJ Moore, the record […]

Going back to his days as a Heisman quarterback at USC, Caleb Williams has always been known for his unique choice of attire. The reigning No. 1 overall pick was back at it again in Week 12 as he entered Soldier Field for the Chicago Bears’ matchup with the Minnesota Vikings donning a ‘Canadian tuxedo.’ […]

It’s no secret that the Chicago Bears are reeling, having lost four games in a row, two of which came in absolutely brutal fashion — one on a Hail Mary, another on a blocked field goal — and the other two in blowout losses. They have a coach on the hot seat, a new offensive coordinator, and […]

As if fans in Chicago hadn’t suffered enough heartbreak during the 2024 season, during a Week 11 matchup with the Green Bay Packers, the Bears managed to turn devastating defeat into something resembling a Greek tragedy.

In all of sports, you need to prove yourself for a while at the professional level before you are solidified as a star and looked at as a great. For example, Tom Brady didn’t walk into the NFL as the biggest thing in the league; it took him years to establish himself as the face […]

The Chicago Bears have not had the 2024 season they hoped for. Chicago is 4-6 heading into Week 12 after a crushing last-second loss against Green Bay.

The Green Bay Packers survived a fourth quarter comeback by Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears to steal a win in Week 11. Chicago’s rookie passer orchestrated a seven-play, 42-yard drive in the final three minutes of the game that set the Bears up for a game-winning, 46-yard kick. But Williams’ heroics were ruined by […]

One week after firing offensive coordinator Shane Waldron, the Chicago Bears were in a position to defeat the Green Bay Packers.

The Chicago Bears just keep finding ways to lose. After a couple of disastrous losses over the last month, the Bears found another way to fall just short on Sunday in a 20-19 loss to the Green Bay Packers. After a late touchdown by the Packers put them in the lead, Caleb Williams led the […]

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before… the Chicago Bears lost in gut-wrenching fashion on Sunday afternoon, in large part due to a crucial miscalculation by head coach Matt Eberflus, who has just as many heart-breaking, logic-defying losses on his resume than he does wins. Even less surprisingly, after the game, Eberflus is unwilling […]

The Chicago Bears lost a heartbreaker to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Cairo Santos’ game-winning field goal was blocked, sealing Green Bay’s 11th straight win over Chicago.

The Chicago Bears snatched a defeat from the jaws of victory once again as the Green Bay Packers got out of Week 11 with a dramatic win, blocking a last-second field goal.

The Chicago Bears offense has been an abject disaster lately, and things officially hit rock bottom in Week 10.

In the 2024 NFL Draft, it wasn’t very surprising when the Chicago Bears selected Caleb Williams with the No. 1 pick, leaving Jayden Daniels to be selected by the Washington Commanders with the No. 2 pick.

The Chicago Bears are making dramatic changes to their offense to try to combat their three-game losing streak. First, the Bears relieved offensive coordinator Shane Waldron and named Thomas Brown as his replacement.

It’s wild what one play can do to the trajectory of a season.

While fans of the Chicago Bears have undoubtedly turned on their own team over the past few weeks, when the Green Bay Packers come to Soldier Field on Sunday afternoon, the boo-birds will shift their focus to the players in Green and Yellow… at least out of the gate.

It’s tough being a rookie quarterback in the NFL, and Chicago Bears rookie signal-caller Caleb Williams is finding that out in 2024. To be frank, that was always to be expected. Keep in mind that Peyton Manning threw 26 touchdowns compared to 28 interceptions in his rookie season. There are high expectations for Williams. That’s […]

The Green Bay Packers vs. the Chicago Bears is one of the NFL’s most heated rivalries.
