Frustration with GM Ryan Poles hasn't really slacked among Chicago Bears fans, even after the team's recent rebound from 0-2 to 2-2. They still see a roster that is flawed in key areas. They don't have a proven left tackle to protect Caleb Williams, and the defensive line still can't rush the...
The Chicago Bears are not a complete team by any measure. They have flaws, some of which are deeply rooted. One of the most alarming is their run defense. Across four games, they've given up an average of 164.5 yards per game. That is dead last in the NFL. This isn't a new problem. Outside of 2023,...
Few people have led a more charmed life than Mark Sanchez. He was the star quarterback at USC, living it up in sunny California. Then he became the fifth overall pick for the New York Jets and made back-to-back AFC Championship appearances. He'd make millions of dollars in his career and eventually...
The Chicago Bears kept the door open for possibly a run at the playoffs with back-to-back wins. They have a somewhat manageable stretch of schedule coming up. What they could really use is one more jolt to the roster that might give them a competitive edge. With the free agent market devoid of...
It is one of the most infamous plays in Chicago Bears history. Nobody argues it almost single-handedly ruined their 2024 season. Players won't ever admit it, but the locker room never seemed to recover from it. They had everything in hand. Caleb Williams had just led the offense to a go-ahead...
If there is one thing we've learned about Ryan Poles since he took over as GM of the Chicago Bears, it's that he tends to fall in love with certain players every draft cycle. It was Velus Jones in 2022, Darnell Wright in 2023, and Rome Odunze in 2024. The thread connecting all of them is that Poles...
They say the bye week is a stress-free time for fans of teams. That is true to some extent. They don't have to sweat through actual games watching their team. However, that doesn't mean the schedule can't impact them in other ways. The Chicago Bears discovered this during their time off. After...
Olin Kreutz has been among those who haven't stressed much about the Chicago Bears' left tackle situation. In his mind, you get what you pay for. If your lowest-paid player is your left tackle, you should expect the performance to be less than ideal. The bigger issue is whether the highly touted...
Everybody remembers how divided the fanbase was. The Chicago Bears held the #1 pick again. It was believed they would take a quarterback. However, several people thought it was a bad idea. Justin Fields won seven games in 2023. The team seemed to respond to his leadership well. Better to trade the...
At first glance, the Chicago Bears don't have a good defense. They are 18th against the pass, 32nd against the run, and are 25th in points allowed. There are some reasons for this. Multiple starters have missed significant time with injuries since the season began. Kyler Gordon and T.J. Edwards...
Matt Eberflus has a case for being the worst head coach in Chicago Bears history. Sure, others like Abe Gibron and John Fox had worse win-loss ratios, but those guys also had mostly atrocious rosters and/or quarterbacks. Eberflus had two 1st round picks at quarterback to work with and a roster that...
Picking a quarterback isn't just about identifying the right talent. Timing can also play a huge part in finding the right guy. For years, the Chicago Bears have always seemed just a little too early or late to the party. They drafted Jim McMahon a year before John Elway, Dan Marino, and Jim Kelly...
