Josh Blackwell didn't know what he was stepping into three years ago. He was just a young cornerback whom the Philadelphia Eagles had cut as an undrafted rookie. His only concern at the time was trying to find a job. The Chicago Bears claimed him off waivers, believing he'd provided much-needed...
Von Miller is one of the greatest pass rushers of his generation. The eight-time Pro Bowler is one of the few defensive players in NFL history to win a Super Bowl primarily because of his individual play. He will end up in the Hall of Fame after he retires, most likely on the first ballot. Another...
The Detroit Lions were not going to draft a quarterback in 2024. They had Jared Goff, who was a Pro Bowler. Still, smart teams always do their homework. Ben Johnson spent time that spring looking into the top quarterbacks of that class. He immediately knew it would be one of the strongest in years....
Like it or not, coaches and players often define the success or failure of their careers by what happens in certain games. Lovie Smith said the first priority of his head coaching tenure was to beat Green Bay. He knew the Packers had tortured the Chicago Bears for years with Brett Favre. Beating...
The Chicago Bears had a rather different approach to the 2025 draft than many were expecting. Expectations had been they'd focus on upgrading the trenches and running back. However, they pulled a swerve by selecting a tight end (Colston Loveland) and a wide receiver (Luther Burden) with their first...
The Chicago Bears have a long history of great rushing attacks. One can imagine players from those eras aren't happy watching this iteration of the team. The Bears have struggled to run the ball effectively all season. They're 31st in the league through four games. Nobody is more upset about it...
The Chicago Bears' offense has been a mess for most of the past decade. Probably longer if we're being honest. It has either been unmanned from a talent perspective or poorly coached in that time. Head coach Ben Johnson was hired primarily to fix the latter, as the team felt they'd finally...
The Chicago Bears made it to the bye week intact after starting 0-2. They won two straight games against desperate opponents, all while going through significant injury problems. Head coach Ben Johnson and his staff navigated the stormy waters. With an extra week off, it was hoped the team would...
The Chicago Bears appear to be trending in the right direction. Head coach Ben Johnson has made it clear that the team has plenty to clean up. Penalties remain a constant issue. They still can't run the ball effectively, and the run defense has been Swiss cheese. What people wonder is if there is...
It looked like the Chicago Bears had a clear vision for what to expect coming out of their bye week. First up will be the dangerous Washington Commanders in a rematch from last season. Then it's a battle against New Orleans before their swing through the AFC North begins against the Baltimore...
There is no more important relationship in a football organization than the one between a quarterback and head coach. This is something the Chicago Bears have struggled to figure out for years. Every pairing they've tried seems to fall apart. Jay Cutler never seemed to mesh with Lovie Smith or Marc...
The question was inevitable. Everybody knew the Chicago Bears had a decision to make at left tackle. Head coach Ben Johnson was asked what his priorities were for the position. He gave the answer most would've expected. Left tackles are considered the second-most important position on a football...
