Bear & Balanced: The Chicago Bears Will Be Back
Like most fans, I wasn’t ready for the Chicago Bears’ season to come to an end. This has been an incredibly fun ride full of ups and downs, and the Divisional playoff game against the Los Angeles Rams provided more of the same. Watching the replay today stung because there were so many missed opportunities […]
Bears vs. Rams Game Balls: 2025 Campaign Ends In Close OT Loss
The 2025 Chicago Bears season has come to an end. Sure, it didn’t end with a championship, but it was a season that we won’t soon forget. An 11-6 regular season record, an NFC North division title, a Wild Card round victory over the Green Bay Packers to end our rival’s season, and a down […]
Report: Kansas City Chiefs likely to hire Eric Bieniemy
According to a report from the NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Kansas City Chiefs intend to hire current Chicago Bears running backs coach Eric Bieniemy as their new offensive coordinator. It was reported that the Chiefs asked permission to interview Bieniemy earlier today, and with the familiarity he has with the organization — he coached […]
Chicago Bears Divisional Round Notes: We Went For It

Bears vs Rams: Inside the Snap Counts, Stats, and the Disapointment
Last night, the Chicago Bears’ season came to an end with a disappointing 20- 17 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Rams. While our fanbase is probably still hurting, I hope we can all reach a place of positivity at some point, because this was a magical season that should be celebrated. There’ll be no […]
2026 Bears mock draft: 7-round predictions after playoff loss
The Bears’ 2025-26 season came to an end on Sunday, as their 20-17 overtime loss to the Rams in the Divisional Round eliminated them from the playoffs. It was an entertaining season from start to finish, and though expectations were surpassed in Ben Johnson’s first year as the team’s head coach, it’s still painful to […]
Bears updated 2026 NFL Draft order: Finalized 1st-round pick after playoff exit
Wait ‘til next year is a sports cliché that often rings hollow, but with a good core of players in place for the Chicago Bears, and Ben Johnson and his coaching staff completing just year one in the Windy City, the 2025 season feels like the beginning of something special. There’ll be roster turnover among the […]
The Bear’s Den, January 19, 2025
THE DAILY SPONGIE SPECIAL BEARSSSSSS Sunday Night Football: Rams beat Bears 20-17 in overtime Close but no cigar. Bears’ grades are in. How did they do against the Rams? About as you would expect. Bears QB Caleb Williams forces overtime with ‘ridiculous’ pass, but Rams win 20-17 It was absolutely nuts, but shout out to […]
The Bears came up short, but Caleb Williams wowed the NFL again
It wasn’t his best game with a career high three interceptions, but Caleb Williams was 23 of 42 with 257 yards passing, with two touchdowns, and 40 yards on five rushes, and he nearly did the improbable again. His last touchdown, a ridiculous fourth-down scramble, then fadeaway to Cole Kmet, made everyone stand up and […]

The Los Angeles Rams beat the Chicago Bears, 20-17 in overtime, ending Chicago’s magical run in Ben Johnson’s inaugural year on the sidelines.

Bears vs Rams Inactives: Braxton Jones will not play
Playoff football is back AGAIN at Soldier Field (that’s fun to type) as the Chicago Bears take on the Los Angeles Rams, and each team has just announced its inactive players list for the game.

UPDATE: Bears expected to make a major offensive line move vs Rams
Ozzy Trapilo’s season-ending patellar tendon injury couldn’t have come at a worse time for the Chicago Bears and their offensive line. The rookie’s solid play had locked down a troublesome position for the Bears opposite All-Pro tackle Darnell Wright, and his loss last weekend against the Green Bay Packers puts Chicago in a rough spot […]
WCG Sunday Livestream: Divisional Round – Chicago Bears vs Los Angeles Rams
Happy gameday, folks. For the first time in WCG Sunday Livestream history, the Chicago Bears have won a playoff game.

NFL fans are picking the Rams to beat the Bears
We didn’t have a Chicago Bears-specific Reacts survey question here at Windy City Gridiron this week, but the national set of survey questions that SB Nation emailed out — sign up here to participate — asked fans to pick the winners in this weekend’s games. I’m not surprised by the results. The Los Angeles Rams had more wins […]

Division Playoffs NFL TV Schedule, Live Game Message Board, and Fan Discussion
Last weekend’s Wild Card games were exciting, but only one game set the record for the most-streamed game in NFL history, with 31.6 million streams!

Why Bears playing the Packers will benefit them vs the Rams—and maybe beyond
As the reactions to Ben Johnson’s now-infamous handshake with Matt LaFleur and “F— the Packers” postgame chat made its rounds this week, pundits made sure to let us know that it wasn’t just the Packers who were mad about Johnson’s perceived slight toward LaFleur and his team. It’s the whole crew of Los Angeles Rams […]
