20. Chicago Bears (2-2) Previous Week: 20
There wasn’t a team, outside of maybe the Ravens or Vikings, who could have used the first available bye week more than Chicago. Injuries have plagued their defense, despite their recent wins. On top of that, first-year head coach Ben Johnson needs to figure out what is going to work for his offense moving forward. Last year’s top pick, Caleb Williams, has looked more and more comfortable, but it’s time for him to start stringing together quality performances on a more consistent basis. Week 6’s road rematch against the Commanders will be a big first step to figuring out who this team is in 2025.
