The Chicago Bears face the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, looking to avoid starting the season 0-3. Chicago’s defense is banged up and will be without CB Jaylon Johnson, LB T.J. Edwards, and CB Kyler Gordon. That likely means a shootout, putting pressure on Caleb Williams and the offense to keep pace with Dak Prescott and the Cowboys. With that in …

The heat is rising at Halas Hall. First-year Bears coach Ben Johnson delivered a fiery message to his winless team Wednesday about the “championship-caliber” practice habits they’re lacking after dropping two straight games to start the year — including Sunday’s blowout loss to his former Lions team. “I think our practice habits are yet to reflect a championship-caliber team,” Johnson …

Lions quarterback Jared Goff had one of the best games of his career on Sunday against the Bears, and he gives the Lions’ offensive line the bulk of the credit. “I thought they played incredibly,” Goff said on 97.1 The Ticket. “I thought the pass protection was as good as I’ve ever played behind, and it’s only looking up for …

Well, the Chicago Bears got absolutely punched in the mouth by the Detroit Lions on Sunday. A Lions offense that didn’t score a single offensive touchdown until the very last play of Week 1 came out firing, scoring early and often in a 52–21 gut punch during Ben Johnson’s return to Detroit.

Reason for optimism: The upper-shelf talent is there. Not too many clubs wallowing in the cellar boast talents like Malik Nabers, Dexter Lawrence, Brian Burns, Abdul Carter or Kayvon Thibodeaux. The strength of this Giants squad can be difference-makers. The issue for Brian Daboll is that the massive holes become vacuums that seem to always suck in even superheroes. The …

Last week felt like a month, but the Detroit Lions righted their wrongs and ended the Motor City’s nightmare with an emphatic 50-burger against former Lions OC and recent hotshot head coaching candidate Ben Johnson’s Chicago Bears. There have been only four games with 50+ points scored since the start of last season, and the Lions own three of them. …

I watched the film back of the Bears’ loss to the Lions in Week 2 so you don’t have to. It was every bit as grueling as I anticipated it would be as soon as I saw Detroit pull away from Chicago in the second half. There were positives to take away from what the Bears put on tape on …
