Green Bay Packers fans saw their team bomb out of the playoffs last Saturday, giving up 25 fourth-quarter points to the Chicago Bears in a brutal 31-27 loss. With that result, the Bears advanced to this weekend’s Divisional Playoffs, where they face a Los Angeles Rams team that is, in the eyes of many NFL […]
My friend Adam posted this and it immediately got me hyped for today’s Bears-Rams NFC Divisional Round game:
Who needs coffee when that exists?
The vibes are excellent around town. I’m loving every head nod I exchange with someone wearing Bears gear. It has been fun to talk football with random people in bars, on L-train platforms, in a ride share after a late night, and here online. This city gets electric when Chicago’s football team is in the playoffs. And I hope everyo...
Happy Sunday, Bulls fans!
We’ve got a game tonight… other than the Bears. How about an immediate Chicago vs. Brooklyn rematch? After the Bulls failed to complete the comeback on Friday, they get a third crack at the Nets. At this point, it might not even be in the Bulls’ best interest to win this one, but as they keep hovering just under .500, you already know what’s coming. They’ll find a way to win, pull themselves right back to the middle, and keep the cycle alive.
Let’s jump into...
Last weekend, the Cubs and Bears came together to provide Chicago with one of the most memorable and consequential sports nights for this city in a long time. One week and one day later, and it’s all on the Bears. I am nervous. I am excited.
And I am ready to Bear Down.
You’ve got a must-read of the day , today, from Patrick Mooney, who got the inside scoop on how the deal with Alex Bregman came together last weekend during the Bears game. From the sound of it, Bregman was VERY clo...
Hello, Chicago Bears Fans! The Bears are into the divisional round after their amazing comeback victory over the Packers in the Wild Card game. The Bears did suffer some injuries in that game, however, with Ozzy Trapilo and TJ Edwards out for the season. There are rumors the Bears may push Joe Thuney out to […]
Another day of NFL playoffs, and another day of exciting football games. The Buffalo Bills suffered another heartbreaking postseason loss in overtime to the Denver Broncos in a controversial finish that will likely lead to days of debating about officiating. I almost made this Question of the Day about the enforcement of pass interference, but […]
1.) 2006 Bears vs. Seahawks: The Goulden leg sends us to the NFC Championship for the first time since 1985 An old adversary came to town on January 14th, 2007. Mike Holmgren, the former head coach of the Green Bay Packers of the 90’s who combined with Brett Favre to torment the Bears so, came […]
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 […]
NFL COACHING NEWS AND RUMORS — There is so much Bears-specifc content that I want to do before now and tomorrow’s kickoff. However, there are some NFL headlines (and some Bears-adjacent things) that popped up today that I didn’t want to squeeze into Sunday’s Bullets and wasn’t willing to wait until Monday to write up. So I’m pushing it out the door now while I have a moment.

The Chicago Bears could be mixing things up with Joe Thuney and their offensive line.
Playoff football means it’s all hands on deck time at Soldier Field. And while creativity is what Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson’s offensive playbook is known for, he might tap into one of his top player’s positional flexibility if it means putting the best team on the field for Sunday’s NFC Divisional Round game against the Los Angeles Rams.

The Rams activated two players from the practice squad ahead of Sunday’s divisional round matchup against the Chicago Baers, bringing back safety Tanner Ingle and linebacker Elias Neal for reinforcements. Ingle was called up before last week’s wild card game against the Panthers, drawing ire from many fans for his role in a blocked punt […]
Even though the Rams have the number one offense in the NFL, it is actually L.A.’s advantage on defense over the Chicago Bears that has the widest gap. The Rams ranked fourth on defense by DVOA, which means Defense-adjusted Value Over Average, a statistic measuring the value of each individual play and weighted based on […]
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 […]

The NFC Wildcard game between the Chicago Bears and the Green Bay Packers evolved into a true coaching clinic, a legendary chess match orchestrated by Bears offensive coordinator Ben Johnson.
