The common saying goes that the primary goal for every NFL team in the summer is getting to week one healthy. Since the beginning of training camp, it never felt like the Chicago Bears were quite there. Jaylon Johnson missed every practice dealing with a groin injury. Shemar Turner bowed out early...
Dennis Allen was not the first name that came to mind when the topic of the next Chicago Bears defensive coordinator was raised. However, people realized it might be a savvy move once it came up. While his tenures as a head coach in the NFL were mostly disappointing, he had a far better track...
The Chicago Bears announced they were giving GM Ryan Poles a contract extension last month. It was a significant left turn from how things started in January, when some felt he might get fired after a 15-36 record in his first three years. Still, the logic was easy to see. It appeared he'd develop...
As has been the case before, Tyler Dunne of Go Long turned the world of Chicago Bears fans upside down. He first did it with his scathing report of how the team handled the careers of Mitch Trubisky and Justin Fields before drafting Caleb Williams. Now his latest entry calls them out again, this...
George Halas was a Hall of Fame head coach for a reason. He was one of the great innovators of his time, embracing new ideas as they came for much of his decades-long tenure. However, one thing always lost in the shuffle about the all-time great was his personality. Hidden beneath that Papa Bear...
Ryan Poles and most of the Chicago Bears front office felt Caleb Williams was the right pick at #1 overall last year. Things didn't go as hoped. The rookie looked unsettled and outright lost at times. He wasn't helped by a coaching situation widely considered among the worst in the NFL. Yet some...
Beating the Minnesota Vikings is a headache. Talent aside, they are a well-coached team headlined by the man at the top. Kevin O'Connell is one of the best offensive minds in the NFL. He turned Sam Darnold into a Pro Bowler last season. The Chicago Bears struggled to stop them in both meetings,...
Caleb Williams has come under fire a lot this offseason. Most of it stems from how the 2024 season went down. Despite high expectations, the Chicago Bears collapsed to a 5-12 finish after a 3-2 start. Williams was highly inconsistent, taking 68 sacks and looking utterly lost at times. In the past...
The truth is, you never really know what is going on behind the scenes. GM Ryan Poles has always presented things as relatively cohesive inside Halas Hall, at least where the front office is concerned. He, his executives, and his scouts have been on the same page with the Chicago Bears' player...
The hiring of Ben Johnson was a genuine shock. Nobody expected the Chicago Bears to get it done. This was the top candidate on the market. This franchise never landed those. They always settled for some second or third-tier option people didn't care for but could be talked into. Johnson is the...
Everybody remembers a couple of months ago. Seth Wickersham of ESPN reported that Caleb Williams had reservations about joining the Chicago Bears ahead of the 2024 draft. He knew their poor QB development history and misgivings about their current coaching staff. Then, as the season unfolded, he...
In 2017, GM Ryan Pace was railroaded for what many felt was a lack of a true open scouting process for the upcoming quarterback class. Many inside Halas Hall felt he decided to draft Mitch Trubisky early, not allowing scouts or coaches a greater say in the matter. Patrick Mahomes was another option...
