Is the Chicago Bears’ Rise to NFC Dominance a Game-Changer or Just Hype?
This helps explain why their underlying metrics aren’t impressive despite their record.
Chicago is eighth in points scored and sixth in yards, but a lot of that is tied to its top-five run game. The passing offense, meanwhile, ranks mid-table in yards, TDs and success rate.
The defense, which has been ravaged by injuries, has been worse. The Bears rank 25th in points allowed, 27th in yards allowed, and are in the bottom 10 against both the pass and the run. This unit also allows the 11th-highest run success rate and sixth-highest pass success rate.
