The Chicago Bears were back at Halas Hall today for day two of a four-day OTA. Besides the action on the field that the media was allowed to report on, quarterback Caleb Williams spoke for the first time since ESPN’s Seth Wickersham shared some details about his upcoming book.

Caleb addressed the drama head-on, and much of his presser was spent on the snippets from the book. He said he did have a good meeting with the Minnesota Vikings, which intrigued him, but that his meeting with the Bears was good as well, and he quickly bought into the notion...

During the season, our friends at SB Nation Reacts have us ask you guys each week if you’re confident in the direction of the Chicago Bears. That same question was being asked of the other 31 fan bases at their team sites around the SB Nation, so they put together an infographic showing how the NFC North fans voted over the course of all 18 games in 2024.

It’s not a spoiler that our confidence in Chicago’s franchise was shaken after the Hail Mary, which kicked off a ten-game losing streak, but seeing it play out compared to the fans...

With the bulk of the acquisition period complete, it’s time to take a look at all 32 teams and the progress they made this offseason. Check out who rises and who falls in a special edition of WCG’s NFL Power Rankings.

Now that the bulk of the offseason’s acquisition period is in the rearview mirror, this is a great time to rewind to the last few months of action. Among all professional sports, the NFL is among the most balanced in terms of parity. A significant reason for this is free agency and the unpredictability of the drafting process. Although...

There’s finally a year-end award for the offensive linemen, and the Bears could have a player who will be in the running.

In case you missed it, last week the NFL announced that for the first time ever, the unsung heroes of every football team, the offensive linemen, will receive their own year-end award.

Starting with the 2025 season, the Protector of the Year Award will honor the best offensive lineman each year and will be presented at NFL Honors along with other top awards, like players of the year, MVP, and the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award....

It’s the 10-year anniversary of the trade that sent Brandon Marshall to the Jets.

The Chicago Bears have had a rough decade, making the playoffs just twice since 2010, despite regularly picking high in the NFL Draft. Near the beginning of the 2012s, they had some stronger years, including the 2011 season when they narrowly missed out on a playoff spot with a 10-6 record, but things have wavered, especially recently, for the franchise.

Looking back at that 2012 campaign, the Bears made a big push to try and remain a perennial playoff contender, trading for wide receiver Brandon Marshall...

WCG’s lead draft analyst shares his current top 50 prospects in the 2026 NFL Draft.

With 11 months left until the 2026 NFL Draft, what better time to share my first public player rankings than right now?

I’m being slightly facetious, since so much will change between now and next April that these rankings are anything but concrete. However, the dead of summer is the perfect time for a draft evaluator to beef up his or her big board so as to get as deep of an understanding of the class as possible. For someone who covers the draft, this...

The Bears offensive line is greatly improved, but how stable is it for the future?

There isn’t one Chicago Bears fan I know who wants to go back and think about the situation surrounding their offensive line in 2024. Kiran Amedgadjie wasn’t ready. Ryan Bates couldn’t stay healthy. Nate Davis couldn’t try. There were plenty of issues.

Plenty has changed since 2024. The Bears have potentially as many as four new starters across their offensive line (at least three), and the talent level has been greatly improved.

The short-term plan is good, but how about the long-term? Let’s examine each...
