THE Chicago Bears revealed their 2025 calendar, which presents intriguing clashes in the first year of Ben Johnson as a chief coach.
Normally, a team that goes 5-12 has a little relief the following year depending on their schedule. A last place calendar featuring a handful of teams that finished at the bottom of the previous year is generally pleasant. In the case of BearIt’s a little more complicated. Of course, playing against these teams should be a relief, although no match in the NFL is easy.

One of these last -place teams is the 49ers of San FranciscoWho had a bad year despite his arrival as a superbac contenders. It is not the most simple “match of the last place” of all time. Even the New York Giants And Saint-Orleans saints Should be linked to what they were a year ago.
Bears must also play again in the best NFL division. THE Detroit lions,, Vikings du MinnesotaAnd Green bay packersAll the winners of more than 11 games and appearances in the playoffs in 2024, constitute six of the 17 games.
AFC North, the non -conference division with which bears are twinned, is responsible for high -end talents. Above, the Baltimore Ravens And Bengals of Cincinnati Come as Super Bowl contenders led by two of the best quarters of the game. Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow being consecutive opponents for the defense of Chicago (weeks 8 and 9) will not be easy.
There is also the Pittsburgh Steelerswho never exceeds .500 with Mike Tomlin as head coach. Do not even think of the idea that Aron Rodgers, a thorn of all time, could end up being their quarter. THE Cleveland Browns are the lower team of AFC North, but the Bears will find it difficult to contain them if they do not play as strongly against them as everyone.

There will be a lot of media threshing surrounding this Bears team due to the new coach, new draft choices and upgrades thanks to the free agency. But it is important to keep a level head due to their inexperience combined with this intimidating calendar.
Ten of the 18 Chicago games will be against teams that made the playoffs in 2024. This does not include the Bengals of Cincinnati, the Cowboys of Dallas or the 49ers of San Francisco, which have all had dull years for various reasons. If the Bears want to overcome this, everyone has to go to the training camp and prepare from the first day. From director general to coach to players, everyone must work as hard as ever.
