Our partners at FanDuel Sportsbook dropped some early Week 11 NFL odds, and they’re giving the Chicago Bears 2.5 points on the road against the division rival Minnesota Vikings. The point total over/under for the game is 45.5.

These two teams met in the season opener, and the Vikes beat the Bears 27 to 24 after an impressive comeback led by second-year quarterback J.J. McCarthy. After being bottled up most of the game, McCarthy threw for two touchdowns and ran for another in the fourth quarter. Then again, I’m not sure if that was J.J. on the comeback or his...

He did it again.

For the fourth time this season, Caleb Williams brought the Chicago Bears back to win a football game.

In what looked like a sure Bears loss, where the defense was bad most of the day, the drops were horrendous, the special teams weren’t very special, and Ben Johnson’s game plan was questionable, Caleb would not be denied in the final 10:19 of the game.

“I can feel my body settle down,” Williams said in his postgame press conference about his late-game mentality. “That’s important for me when I’m out there in those moments, but the calmness,...

Every Bears game this season is designed purposefully to take years off your life, for better or worse.

The Giants firmly had the lead going into the fourth quarter, but 14 points scored by Chicago helped them come from behind with a 24-20 victory on Sunday at Soldier Field. At their worst, the Bears had a 3.1% chance to win the game, according to ESPN’s analytics department. But a forced fumble, a couple of sacks, and strong play at the end of the quarter by Caleb Williams propelled them to a win to bring the Bears up to a 6-3...

After putting up 47 points on the road last week, what will the Chicago Bears do for the home fans today against the New York Giants? New York has an awful run defense, so could we see some more angry running from rookie Kyle Monangai? D’Andre Swift is also back. Will the weather allow Chicago’s passing game to make an impact?

The Bears’ defense allowed 470 passing yards to 40-year-old Joe Flacco last week, so will they bounce back today against rookie Jaxon Dart, who is 18 years younger?

Hang out with us in our open thread to talk about...

The Chicago Bears (5-3) are back at blustery Soldier Field to face the New York Giants (2-7), and both teams have just announced their inactive players for the game.

We have them right here.

CHICAGO BEARS INACTIVES

QB – Case Keenum (3rd QB)

LB – T.J. Edwards

WR – Jahdae Walker

CB – Josh Blackwell

DE – Dominique Robinson

TE – Stephen Carlson

The Bears elevated tight end Stephen Carlson from the practice squad as a precaution in case Durham Smythe’s calf issue prevented him from playing.

Defensive end Joe Tryon-Shoyinka (#93) will make his debut after the Bears traded...

And just like that, the Chicago Bears are back, baby!

After the loss to the Baltimore Ravens, our fans’ overall confidence in the direction of the franchise dipped to just 66%. It was a dark week for some of you, worrying whether our Bears were falling back into old habits.

After all, the Ravens were without their MVP-caliber quarterback, and losing to the QB2 felt like a step back for the franchise. Forget about Baltimore coming off their bye week with a soon-to-be Hall of Fame head coach known for having his team ready following the bye, or about the...

Hello, Chicago Bears fans! Well, coming off that thrilling and unbelievable game against the Cincinnati Bengals, what do our WCG contributors think will happen in the upcoming game of the Chicago Bears vs. the New York Giants at noon on Sunday? Some of our contributors see a fairly comfortable win for the Beloved, while others foresee a classic trap game, though we all see the Bears ultimately prevailing. Will it be a tight slog all the way to the end, or will the Bears get out early and stay there? The New York Giants are in disarray. There are rumors...

We’ve passed the halfway point of the 2025 NFL season, and our Chicago Bears are in those In The Hunt graphics, and it’s for real! At (5-3), they are currently in the NFC’s eighth seed, right behind the (5-3) Detroit Lions, who hold the tie-breaker over Chicago due to their Week 2 win.

The NFC is a lot more competitive than many figured it’d be, so the Bears can’t afford a loss on Sunday in a game they should win. The New York Giants are even worse at stopping the run than the Bengals are, with the G-Men allowing a...

On Saturday, the Chicago Bears tweaked their practice squad by releasing wide receiver Miles Boykin and signing linebacker Carl Jones Jr., who cleared waivers after being released by the Bears on Thursday.

Jones has played in seven games this season, all on special teams, and his 10 total tackles are tied for the second most on the team.

The Bears also elevated tight end Stephen Carlson to the active roster from the practice squad for tomorrow’s game against the New York Giants. In case you missed it, on Friday, tight end Durham Smythe popped up on the injury report wth...

The NFL season is an evolving state of affairs, and week 10 finds your 5-3 Chicago Bears on the verge of making a run and solidifying their playoff chances. This week’s battle against an NFC foe will be huge for playoff standings at the end of the year.

In this weekly series, I’ll be featuring one player from each team on each side of the ball who I believe to be integral to their respective team’s success. It’s not always about the quarterback or superstar defensive players like Myles Garrett and Brian Burns. Importance is all relative, and while the...

We continue our ‘85 at 40 series with a fantastic interview with the Seattle Seahawks assistant head coach, Leslie Frazier. Frazier has had a fantastic coaching career. He’s been a defensive coordinator for the Cincinnati Bengals, Minnesota Vikings, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Buffalo Bills. He oversaw several excellent defensive units. He was also the head coach of the Minnesota Vikings.

Before Frazier was a coach, he was an outstanding cornerback for the Chicago Bears. His final year was the 1985 season. Not because Frazier retired after the game, but because he suffered a career-ending injury.

We spoke with Frazier about...

1.) 1977, Bears Vs. Vikings: The original flu game; Walter Payton breaks single game rushing record in win

Yes, before Michael Jordan dropped 38 points against the Utah Jazz in game 5 of the 1997 NBA finals, Walter Payton had his own flu game. In week 10 of the 1977 NFL season, the 4-5 Chicago Bears were set to host the 6-3 Minnesota Vikings. The Bears ground game took charge, fueled by Sweetness himself. While battling the flu and a 101-degree fever, Payton carried 40 times for 275 yards of rushing, while scoring the games lone offensive touchdown, a...
