Bears fall to Eagles in 2019 Wild Card

The Chicago Bears fell to the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2019 Wild Card that will be remembered in infamy. Mitch Trubisky took over for the Bears’ offense at his own 42 with a chance to extend the Bears’ season and further silence his critics. His counterpart Nick Foles had just orchestrated what appeared to be the nail in the coffin of the Bears’ season until Tarik Cohen’s clutch kick return gave the Bears good field position. Trubisky merely had to get his team in field goal range to overcome

2019 Wild Card preview: Bears vs Eagles

The NFL playoffs are upon us, and for the first time since 2010, the Chicago Bears are among the 12 teams still standing. They will cap off Wild Card weekend with a faceoff against the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles. It’s a tough card to draw, but as the saying goes, to be the best, you have to beat the best. The Philadelphia Eagles pose a number of problems for the Bears’ pass-rush, starting first and foremost with their rock-solid offensive line. Khalil Mack will have his h

Their Wild Card showdown will take place Sunday at 3:40 CT, but there’s a whole week before then. For now, it’s time to unpack the Bears’ dominance over the Minnesota Vikings.

2018 Bears look to dash Vikings' hopes after defeating 49ers

The 2018 Chicago Bears came to San Francisco with little on the line and still escaped with a victory over the 49ers. Chicago now comes to Minnesota to face the Vikings, struggling for their playoff lives, with the two seed still in play. It may not have always been pretty. Poor execution hit the Bears a few times, including an early turnover on Mitch Trubisky’s lateral to Tarik Cohen and Allen Robinson’s late fumble that opened the door for a 49ers comeback. Their miscues proved to not be cos

Monday Mulling: 2018 Bears clinch NFC North with win over Packers

The 2018 Chicago Bears exorcized their demons with a win over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, giving them their first win over the Packers in five games and, more importantly, their first division win since 2010. Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky had arguably the worst game of his career against the Rams a week ago. A week of criticism ensued, further adding to the mounting pressure on Trubisky. He responded with a big day when it was needed most, a day in which was 20-for-28 with 235 yards an

2018 Bears vs Packers preview

The 2018 Chicago Bears face the Green Bay Packers on Sunday for the second time this year, but this time, a lot more than pride is on the line. A Bears a win clinches the NFC North and, combined with a Vikings win, would eliminate the Packers from postseason contention. The Packers enter Sunday with the 29th ranked run defense by FootballOutsiders, allowing 1,641 rushing yards (24th) and 12 touchdowns (21st). The Bears’ run game has struggled at many points this season, but one of its best days

Monday Mulling: 2018 Bears' defense dominates Rams

The 2018 Chicago Bears made a statement against the Los Angeles Rams. A game many picked to be another victory, the Bears’ defense showed out and put a boot on a prolific Rams’ offense. The modern NFL offense revolves purely around the quarterback. While the Rams have a top-10 quarterback in Jared Goff, running back Todd Gurley is the heartbeat of their offense. He is second in the league in carries and leads the NFL in rushing/receiving touchdowns with 19. He is a dangerous runner with 1,202 r

What 2018 Bears vs Rams can teach about today's NFL

One question will be on everyone’s mind this Sunday night when the Los Angeles Rams take on the Chicago Bears. Can you still win with defense? The phrase “defense wins championships” has long been a saying your high school football coach barked at you, or your dad called out from the recliner in the living room. But this notion has been dispelled by today’s NFL, a league in which the three best teams, the New Orleans Saints, Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams, produce offensively at an as

2018 Chicago Bears lose wild one to New York Giants

The 2018 Chicago Bears fell to the New York Giants on Sunday in what can only be described as a bizarre game. There were trick plays, a backup quarterback, a defensive touchdown and even an onside kick. The Giants came out victorious in the end though, 30-27. Though it was a win against a first-place team, Giants running back Saquon Barkley described it as “Just a win.” He added, “Any win in the NFL is amazing. It’s hard to win in this league. We’ve only got four. We were in a lot of situations

The Giants’ struggles have been apparent this year, but, like any team, they pose their own set of unique challenges The Giants’ offensive line remains a glaring weakness in their game, even after the addition of Nate Solder and expulsion of the much-maligned Tre Flowers. They have given up 38 sacks this season, according to FootballOutsiders, which is only one le

2018 Chicago Bears get out of Detroit with a Thanksgiving win

The Chicago Bears celebrated Thanksgiving with a 23-16 win over the Detroit Lions. It wasn’t easy, and it certainly wasn’t ideal, but the Bears won their fifth straight game for the first time since 2012 and went three-for-three in their stretch of divisional games. The unfortunate timing of playing an early Thanksgiving game 80 hours after a Sunday night game was compounded by the injury to Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky. Backup Chase Daniel had to prepare for the third start of his now 10-y

First place in the NFC North is on the line and the Bears have a chance to separate themselves by a game and a half against the presumed division favorites.

Monday Mulling: 2018 Chicago Bears dismantle Detroit Lions 34-22

The 2018 Chicago Bears dominated the Detroit Lions on Sunday, walking away with a 34-22 victory and a 6-3 record. They were excellent on offense and dominated on defense, furthering their case as serious playoff contenders. The story of the game, and with many games, was quarterback Mitch Trubisky, who reached a career-high with 355 passing yards. He also tacked on four touchdowns, three through the air and one on a well-timed quarterback draw. Trubisky was dialed in from the first series, comp

The first place Chicago Bears will take on the Detroit Lions in a match-up between first-time head coaches Matt Nagy and Matt Patricia. The Bears and Lions are entering big points in the season, and they will face each other again in two weeks.

Monday Mulling: 2018 Chicago Bears defense shines in 41-9 thumping of Bills

The Chicago Bears took care of business in Buffalo on Sunday, dismantling the Bills en route to a 41-9 victory. The defense shined and the Bears piled on the points against an inferior Bills team. That put the team in good position for their upcoming slate of division opponents. To say the Bills’ offense has struggled this season would be an understatement. Marred by horrific quarterback play, they had little chance of effectively moving the ball against a ferocious Bears’ defense, at least bef

2018 Chicago Bears at Buffalo Bills preview

The Chicago Bears will travel to Buffalo to play the Bills for the first time since 2010 this Sunday, and with them, they bring the hopes of extending their NFC North lead. The Bills’ offense has been abysmal this season. They sit squarely at the bottom of the NFL in passing offense and passing touchdowns and they are 30th in total offense. They have also posted the worst DVOA rating through eight games of any team since 1988. Rookie quarterback Josh Allen, the seventh overall pick, is hurt, as

Monday Mulling: 2018 Chicago Bears Ground New York Jets

The Chicago Bears ended their two-game skid by defeating the New York Jets Sunday. Following an up-and-down offensive first half, the Bears pulled away in the second half to defeat the Jets 24-10. It wasn’t always pretty, but this still-developing team did its job in defeating an inferior opponent. Football is a weird sport and Sunday was no exception.

The Chicago Bears will face the New York Jets this Sunday, as they try to right the ship of their previous two losses. Their rookie quarterback and exploitable matchups make the Jets a beatable team. The Bears’ lack of pass rush was noticeable last Sunday, but it was largely by design. Khalil Mack dropped into coverage eighteen times and rushed Tom Brady sixteen times.

How New England’s offense attacked the Bears’ defense The Patriots neutralized the Bears’ pass-rush by taking a page out of the Dolphins’ playbook: Get the ball out quick.
