The Chicago Bears stadium mess has found a new way to jump the shark. It began with a stadium project on the Arlington Park property feeling like a certainty. But then came flirtation with other municipalities around the Chicagoland suburbs. That was followed by a brief dalliance with a lakefront stadium in downtown Chicago located on Museum Campus. However, that plan never came to fruition. Hence, focus return to Arlington Park. But in a year where shovels were supposed to be in the grou...

With the playoffs within reach and the Green Bay Packers rolling into Soldier Field for a primetime showdown, Caleb Williams sounds like a quarterback settling into both the stage and the stakes. The Bears have evolved around him since the bye week , their identity sharpening, their run game humming, the details of Ben Johnson’s offense crystallizing. And Williams, for all the outside noise, sees the same evolution unfolding within himself. “I would say us getting our run game going ...

Chicago Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson has his offense humming entering the team’s Week 16 showdown against the Green Bay Packers. And let the record show that the lede sentence in this post isn’t solely a reflection of recency bias with the Bears offense putting up 31 points against Myles Garrett and the Cleveland Browns defense. The offensive side of the ball in Chicago has been playing well for a while now. And nothing captures that fact like this nugget shared by teammate Patrick Flower...

Despite my meatball-ish given name, Mongo Peanut, I’d consider myself a fairly level-headed fan of the Chicago Bears. Context is important. Never too high. Never too low. That’s why I am here to say that Bears fans need to recognize the opportunity in front of them. The Bears can win the Super Bowl this year. […]

Let’s get into it. I could spend some time praising the Bears’ beatdown of the Cleveland Browns, but you’ve seen those articles already.

Caleb Williams has made some truly remarkable progress in his second NFL season. But in his first season under Head Coach Ben Johnson, starting fast is something that has eluded him. The game-sealing interception in the end zone in Green Bay was the backbreaker for Chicago in Week 14, but the slow start (as it has many weeks) forced the Bears into that situation in the first place. Getting the offense going early was a point of emphasis heading into Sunday’s matchup with the Browns, and W...
