Why the Chicago Bears belong in the conversation with Philadelphia Eagles as NFC’s best

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


If the 2025 NFL season ended today, the road to the Super Bowl would go through Philadelphia with the defending champions as the No. 1 seed in the NFC, but the NFC North leading Chicago Bears are building quite an impressive resumè in their own right.

After toppling the Minnesota Vikings, head coach Ben Johnson’s team improves to 8-3 while collecting five fourth-quarter comeback wins along the way, not just figuring out how to win but crafting a strong case that this is a team that belongs in the conversation among the NFL’s best.

The not-so-secret trend powering the Chicago Bears’ resurgence

The success of the Bears’ offense isn’t just performing in crunch time of games, Chicago’s defense is beginning to impose its will on opponents.

As NFL Media’s Jeffri Chadhia points out, the Bears are playing some of the most balanced football in the league and leveraging a defense adept at creating takeaways into making opponents pay for turning the ball over.

“Williams has only four interceptions this season and zero lost fumbles,” Chadhia points out about the Bears. “Those numbers mean even more when considering the Bears have forced 22 turnovers and lead the league in turnover margin (+16). You want to know why the Bears are 5-1 in one-score games? It’s because of numbers like those.”

Sunday, in Minnesota, the Bears’ defense intercepted Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy twice, and on the season, Bears safety Kevin Byard leads the league with five interceptions, with Bears linebacker Tremaine Edmunds trailing him by just one pick, underscoring how opportunistic this Bears defense has been.

If the Bears can carry this kind of success into its pair of games against the Green Bay Packers, a rematch of a Week 2 loss to the Detroit Lions, and a showdown against the Eagles, Chicago isn’t going to be some feel-good story when January rolls around.  Rather, Ben Johnson’s team is going to be one of the most feared when the playoffs get underway.
