The Chicago Bears can't be viewed as the same team from last year. This is often difficult to remember. A new coaching staff is in charge. That almost always leads to significant changes, not just schematically but also in personnel—more specifically, how certain players are utilized. For example,...
The Chicago Bears have been connected to multiple big names ahead of the 2025 draft. Most of them are at established positions of "need," like running back, left tackle, defensive end, and defensive tackle. Tight end is also in play. Guard and center were addressed in free agency. Linebacker and...
Many Chicago Bears fans have come around to the idea of drafting Ashton Jeanty. Taking a running back in the 1st round seems counterintuitive these days. Players at that position rarely stay productive beyond their 30th birthday. That, along with the ability to find good ones in later rounds, makes...
Conventional wisdom says it takes at least two years to notice whether a team has secured a good head coach or not. That is determined by how the team performs on the field. However, people inside the NFL have said for many years that you can often determine who the good ones are right away. They...
The Chicago Bears can't focus all of their evaluation efforts ahead of the draft on just the big names they could take 10th overall. Great teams are often the ones who can find hidden gems in the later rounds and undrafted free agency. The Philadelphia Eagles wouldn't be world champions without...
Many older Chicago Bears fans probably remember the name Bobby Wade. He was a 5th round pick of the team in 2003 out of Arizona. His best offensive season came in 2004, when he had 481 yards for an injury-riddled team. Then, in 2005, he had 317 punt return yards, including a touchdown against...
The Chicago Bears made plenty of notable changes to their coaching staff this past winter. However, they did hatch a minor surprise when they elected to retain special teams coordinator Richard Hightower. His players were thrilled. They and many around the league feel he is one of the best at his...
The Chicago Bears might be one of the most unpredictable teams going into the 2025 draft. Every other team selecting in the top 10 has at least some sense of direction. Tennessee is going quarterback at #1. Cleveland and New York likely grab Travis Hunter and Abdul Carter. New England will go...
When the Chicago Bears traded for Joe Thuney last month, the objective was obvious. They wanted a proven veteran presence who could help stabilize the offensive line. Thuney has four Super Bowl rings and multiple Pro Bowls under his belt. He's still widely considered one of the best guards in the...
Determining what to do at the 10th overall pick will consume GM Ryan Poles for the next two weeks. He and the rest of the Chicago Bears brass will run countless simulations. The goal is to determine the likeliest outcomes and which players could be available. Depending on their findings, it may...
GM Ryan Poles has a track record of doing the unexpected. The 1st round of the draft isn't immune to that. In 2023, nobody expected the Chicago Bears to take Tennessee right tackle Darnell Wright with the 10th overall pick. Clearly, Poles wasn't afraid to go against expectations if he felt the...
Dennis Allen had the good fortune of coming into a fairly stable situation. The Chicago Bears defense he's taking over already has talent. Montez Sweat, Jaylon Johnson, and Tremaine Edmunds are all Pro Bowlers. T.J. Edwards, Kevin Byard, and Andrew Billings are proven veterans. Allen singled out...
