Can the Bears stop Carolina’s Tetairoa McMillan when he’s lined up in the slot?
The Chicago Bears kick off a highly anticipated 2026 season on Sunday, and they are matched up against a team that may have helped catapult them to that realm of anticipation.

Who said we had to wait until Week 1 was over to fire one of these up? We have Wednesday Night Football tonight (for some reason that escapes me)! So let’s talk about it, and what we can look forward to in the first week of the 2026 season. That way, if I’m wrong about […]
Chicago Bears News: Braxton Jones to start, Rome Odunze to play?
Braxton Jones is in as the Bears starting left tackle at least at the beginning of the 2026 season as the team awaits the full return of Ozzy Trapilo.

2026 Chicago Bears Season Preview: The Hunter is now the Hunted
For every professional sports team, the end goal is always the same: Win a championship. Although that didn’t happen for the Chicago Bears in 2025, last season was easy to call a dream come true in many ways. Time flies, and sometimes it’s easy to forget the past. For most fans, 2024 was a season […]

Caleb Williams, Ben Johnson, Chicago Bears about to take fans on a fun ride
I was writing some articles after the 53-man roster was announced and discussing how I have several concerns about the Chicago Bears defense, mostly the defensive line. A handful of fans on social media and in the comments section decided to voice their opinions that I am too negative. And truth be told, I probably […]

Kyler Gordon Injury Update: He ‘should’ be back with the Bears soon
Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson met the media earlier today, and there wasn’t anything said about nickelback Kyler Gordon, who is still on the PUP list.

The 2026 NFL regular season kicks off on Wednesday, which means that meaningful football is almost here!

Chicago Bears Rivalries Logo Glow-Up was the Star of the Reveal
Have you seen the Chicago Bears’ new “Rivalries” uniforms put out by Nike? My first reaction was that they finally found a good pairing for that orange helmet they came out with a couple years ago. It’s got some fun wrinkles – the vertical stripes, the orange pants, awesome socks. The patch… yeah, sure, let’s […]

Bears Dillon Thieneman gets surprise nod as possible Defensive Rookie of the Year from ESPN
We already know first-round safety Dillon Thieneman will have to play up to his billing early for the Chicago Bears following the loss of running mate Coby Bryant in training camp.

Bears fans optimistic about the offseason, but still concerned about the d-line
We asked Chicago Bears fans earlier this week to grade Chicago’s entire offseason. From free agency to the draft, to training camp performances, to preseason, and everything in between.
