It was a very busy 2025 offseason. It was an expensive one, too. And it's why Ryan Poles' job will be much harder in 2026. The Chicago Bears will begin the 2026 offseason ranked 25th in the NFL in salary cap space, and there are a handful of current starters whom Poles must figure out how to bring back.

With the biggest Chicago Bears game in years just days away, head coach Ben Johnson had some difficult decisions to make.

In many ways, the Chicago Bears have already had a dream first season under coach Ben Johnson in 2025. They've won 10 games for the first time since 2018, and are really close to clinching their first playoff berth since 2020. They could end the 2025 season as NFC North champions, too.

If the Bears are to win the biggest game in years – perhaps in a decade – on Saturday, they’ll need to lean into the one detail the offense has seemingly mastered: a punishing and physical run blocking scheme.

In our Week 16 power rankings, we the Bears landed at No. 5, which is consistent from the week before. The Green Bay Packers, despite their injuries, are ahead of Chicago for at least another week. It is up to the Bears to correct their mistakes from their last matchup against the Packers to jump ahead of them.
