Latest news and updates about the Bears
I can't recall grading a worse performance by a receiver. They kind of get paid to, at the very least, catch most of the ball thrown their way — especially those making $32 million a year and acquired with a first-round pick.
In the latest Bears Over Beers episode, hosts Ryan Droste and Bryan Orenchuk preview Thursday Night Football’s Chicago Bears vs. New England Patriots showdown. The focus is the rivalry between 2024 draft quarterbacks Caleb Williams (Bears) and Drake Maye (Patriots), who met in a 2024 game that New England won. Williams now seeks revenge in the upcoming clash at Soldier Field. The podcast, available on RedCircle and major platforms, dives into the matchup and class supremacy debate.

The Patriots head to Soldier Field for a Week 7 primetime clash with the 4‑2 Bears, and despite injury concerns the Pats are favored. Patriots’ passing attack, led by Drake Maye, should exploit a Bears secondary missing key linebackers, while their pass defense—anchored by Milton Williams and Christian Barmore—looks stronger than Chicago’s aerial threat from Caleb Williams and tight end Colston Loveland. The run game may be a toss‑up, but New England’s new guard duo could gain an edge over a Bears rush lacking depth beyond D’Andre Swift. Special‑teams are evenly matched, and coaching adjustments are expected to tip the scales toward New England.
Drake Maye's resurgence has put him back in the MVP conversation again, as the Patriots head into their Week 7 matchup with the Bears.

Jonah Jackson, the Chicago Bears' starting right guard, beats a week-to-week hip‑flexor injury to remain in the lineup for Thursday's matchup against the New England Patriots. After being listed as non‑participating on Monday and limited on Tuesday, Jackson clears the injury report on Wednesday, preserving the crucial right‑guard/tackle partnership with Darnell Wright that offensive coordinator Press Taylor says defines the Bears' identity. The quick turnaround means the Bears keep their preferred offensive line combo, though they still miss running‑back Kyle Monangai with thumb and toe injuries. Jackson's durability, unbroken since joining Chicago in 2025, provides a significant boost heading into the Thursday night game.

The Patriots host the Bears Thursday night, both sitting 4‑2 as they vie for 2024 QB supremacy. Caleb Williams (Bears) finally beats Drake Maye (Patriots) after a 19‑3 loss in 2024, but Maye has rebounded with a perfect 5‑0 TD‑INT stretch since Week 4, silencing early doubts. New England’s O‑line is riddled with injuries, forcing reserves Matt Pryor and Walter Rouse into the trenches, so Chicago should attack the interior. Patriots’ Kyle Williams emerges as a deep‑ball threat, while rookie edge rusher Elijah Ponder, tied for third in sacks, could tilt the defensive battle. The matchup tests Maye’s resurgence against a battered Patriots line and highlights two under‑the‑radar playmakers.

The Patriots will start Walter Rouse and Matt Pryor at guard on Thursday’s 8:15 p.m. ET showdown with the Chicago Bears after injuries sidelined the regular starters. Both players saw action in the recent win over the Jets—Pryor replaced Alijah Vera‑Tucker in the second quarter, and Rouse stepped in for Ben Brown in the fourth. They join left tackle Will Campbell and center Jared Wilson, while right tackle Morgan Moses is questionable with a foot injury, opening the door for rookie Caleb Lomu.

The secondary also loses cornerbacks Carlton Davis III, Karon Prunty and Channing Canada to injuries, while the Bears sit RB Kyle Monangai (thumb/toe) and LB Jack Sanborn (concussion). Questionable Patriots include OT Morgan Moses (foot) and LB Christian Elliss (chest). With Matt Pryor and Walter Rouse stepping in at guard, New England’s line faces a major test.
An NFL insider suggests the Chicago Bears could re‑acquire former star linebacker Khalil Mack to boost a defense that Jason La Canfora calls lacking “bite.” The Bears sit 4‑2, trailing the unbeaten Vikings in the NFC North, and face a Thursday night clash with the Patriots. Mack, now with the Los Angeles Chargers on an expiring deal after a 0‑6 start, could be available for a third‑round pick, according to the report. A reunion would give Chicago a proven Pro Bowler just three years removed from a 17‑sack season.
The Atlanta Falcons fell 31-23 to the Chicago Bears after rookie returner Zachariah Branch muffed a punt and later fumbled a kickoff, directly leading to 10 Bears points.

The article argues the Falcons shouldn’t overhaul the return unit after one poor night, noting Branch’s potential and the need for more opportunities over the underperforming Olamide Zaccheaus.
