Chicago Bears surge into top 10 of NFL power rankings

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Ben Johnson will need to show a capability to instill corrections amongst his roster, especially when playing divisional opponents for a second time.

For the first time since 2018, the Chicago Bears are sitting at 7-3 and in sole possession of first place in the NFC North. The team has a one game lead ahead of Green Bay and Detroit. For the first time in a very long time, the Bears will be playing meaningful football games for the rest of the season.

More news: Ben Johnson’s impact continues to show for the Chicago Bears

The Bears have won 7 of their last 8 games, five of them have been from incredible comebacks with two minutes or less left in the game.

The team has now won their third straight with a 19-17 win over Minnesota, cementing themselves in the playoff race. While there are still so much the team needs to clean up, the Bears are surging as a top 10 team in the NFL.

The Chicago Bears have taken another massive leap in the power rankings

More news: Chicago Bears’ takeaways are leading to major success despite defensive struggles

In the latest power rankings from Bleacher Report, Bleacher Report’s staff now has put the Bears among the top teams in the NFL. The Bears now sit as the 10th best team in the league.

Kris Knox stated that the Bears are playing like a team that win the division with a couple fortunate breaks.

“The Bears aren’t just keeping pace in the NFC North, they’re playing like a team that could win it with a couple of fortunate breaks. Chicago has won seven of its last eight and is finding new ways to win on a weekly basis.“

It clearly hasn’t been pretty, but the Bears are simply finding ways to win. Knox mentioned that “winning ugly is something that good teams figure out to do”. I couldn’t agree more with that.

The Bears still have some work to do with an extremely tough stretch of games

The team will now begin their toughest stretch of the season. Chicago will be facing multiple very good teams including Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Green Bay, San Francisco, and Detroit to close out the season. You still can’t rule Cleveland out as well, due to their very good defense featuring Myles Garrett.

In order for the Bears to continue their success, the defense clearly needs to get tightened up and healthy. A returning Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon will be major boosts to a secondary that has struggled. TJ Edwards could return from surgery on a fractured hand as early as Sunday against Pittsburgh. He will also be a major boost to the defense.

As for the offense, Caleb Williams needs to be a more consistent, despite his massive improvement. Ben Johnson has created a top ten offense in just his first year as Bears head coach. If Williams can play like he does in the fourth quarter all around, this offense has the makings to be even more explosive. The possibilities for this team continues to grow every single week.

Caleb Williams' ability to lead game-winning drives could cause mental gaffes for opposing defenders.
