The Chicago Bears defense has turned it around

After a brutal start to the 2025 season, Dennis Allen might have brought back the monsters of the midway. Through the Chicago Bears’ four game winning streak, the defense has seen a major turnaround. Through the four games, the defense has gotten at least three takeaways. With a depleted pass rush, the Bears have started to finally get to the quarterback. During Sunday’s victory over the Saints, the Bears sacked Spencer Rattler four times and picked him off three times as well.

Due to the dominating performance, head coach Ben Johnson gave the Bears’ defensive coordinator the game ball following Sunday’s win. Allen called another terrific game for the Bears’ defense. With a secondary that is without Jaylon Johnson, they were still able to get three interceptions and came close to having a couple more.
The Chicago Bears defense are ranking among the top in the NFL in multiple categories
More news: Three takeaways from the Chicago Bears fourth straight win
Following the Bears’ embarassing 30 point loss to the Detroit Lions, the defense has ranked high in multiple categories. They currently rank third in the entire NFL in total yards allowed, fifth in passing yards allowed, and eighth in points allowed. Another huge upside of the defense is they have improved greatly in stopping the run. The Bears were able to stop the run game in both wins over the Commander and Saints. Allen’s defense only allowed 44 rushing yards during Sunday’s win over the Saints.

Chicago now leads the NFL with 16 takeaways on the year. Saftey Kevin Byard leads the NFL with four interceptions on the season. The veteran has been a major boost to the defense, especially with Jaylon Johnson being out. Kyler Gordon and Jaquan Brisker staying healthy and making consistent plays has been major for the team. Linebacker Tremaine Edmunds is also having a great season, leading all NFL linebackers in interceptions.
The Bears need to build off this momentum and continue dominating on defense. If Lamar Jackson is cleared to play for Baltimore, it’ll be a tough test for Allen and the defense. If they can come out of week 8 with a win, they could very well be a playoff contender in the NFC.
Defense is eating good today
