The Chicago Bears are set to open the 2025 NFL season against the Minnesota Vikings this Monday night at Soldier Field.
The Bears had an impactful offseason that included, most importantly, the hiring of head coach Ben Johnson to usher in a new era. Johnson’s presence has already helped the culture inside the locker room, and he’ll be key in second-year quarterback Caleb Williams’ development. Following some additions to the trenches, including the overhauling of the interior offensive line, expectations are high for this group in 2025.
With Week 1 just around the corner, how did the Bears compare to the rest of the NFL last season? Looking at the major metrics (courtesy of Team Rankings, ESPN, StatMuse and Football Database), here is where Chicago ranked following the 2024 season.
