The Chicago Bears watched their season end in overtime against the Los Angeles Rams in the divisional round of the playoffs earlier this month. It was a finish that felt both crushing and revealing.

Playoff football rarely offers forgiveness.
Are The Chicago Cubs Building For 2026 Or Preparing For 2027?
The Chicago Cubs entered the offseason with lingering questions after their NLDS loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. That series exposed a roster that was competitive but incomplete.

Chicago Bears Secure Playoff Berth Behind Rapid Franchise Turnaround In 2025

After Chicago defeated Green Bay Saturday night, they secured a spot in the playoffs when Detroit fell to Pittsburgh late Sunday afternoon.

Minnesota had just taken a late 17-16 lead, and the atmosphere at U.S. Bank Stadium felt tense. Devin Duvernay fielded the ensuing kickoff and burst up the right sideline for a stunning 56-yard return that changed everything. Moments later, Cairo Santos connected on a 48-yard field goal as time expired. Chicago escaped with a dramatic 19-17 win, and once again, the Bears refused to fold.

After last week’s struggles, the offense found its rhythm again behind the play of several breakout performers.

Four Straight And Counting: Chicago Bears Out To Prove 2025 Squad Is Built Different
At this time last year, the Chicago Bears were a team that appeared to be turning a corner. They entered Week Seven with a 4–2 record, their optimism rising, only to suffer one of the most demoralizing losses in recent years. The infamous “Fail Mary” game against the Washington Commanders marked the start of a ten-game losing streak that derailed their season. Ultimately, it cost former head coach Matt Eberflus and his staff their jobs along the way.
Cubs Fall Short In NLDS: Here’s How Management Can Build A Stronger Contender In 2026
The Chicago Cubs’ 2025 postseason came to a disappointing close with a Game Five loss to the dreaded Milwaukee Brewers in the NLDS. What began as a promising postseason run quickly unraveled due to starting-pitching injuries and inconsistent hitting from their key contributors. Lineup Decisions Under Scrutiny One of the biggest question marks from the postseason was the absence of Moises Ballesteros, who provided a spark late in the regular season but only saw three at-bats in the postseason.
The Chicago Cubs Cling To NL Wild Card Lead With 25 Games To Prove Themselves
The bigger question is at the plate. Since the All-Star break, the Cubs are just 21–20, unable to find the offensive rhythm that carried them early in the season. For this lineup to click, they’ll need much more consistency from Kyle Tucker, Ian Happ, Pete Crow-Armstrong, and Seiya Suzuki. That core four drives the offense, and when they’re hot, the rest of the order feeds off them.

Chicago Hope: The Cubs Must Strike Now Before The July 31 Trade Deadline
As the Chicago Cubs head into the All-Star Break, their hold on first place in the NL Central is hanging by a thread. The starting rotation slumped in June, key arms have gone down with injuries, and now the front office must act decisively before the July 31 trade deadline. The Cubs’ starting staff showed flashes of potential in May, posting a 4.17 ERA that ranked in all of baseball. Despite giving up too many runs, especially home runs, the rotation kept the team competitive.
The Epic Rise Of Pete Crow-Armstrong’s 2025 Breakout Season: No Fluke
On June 19, 2025, just before the All-Star break, Pete Crow-Armstrong, better known to the Chicago faithful as PCA, carved his name into the Cubs record books as the fastest player in franchise history to reach the 20 home run, 20 stolen base mark. At just 23, PCA isn’t just excelling — he’s reshaping expectations for what a star center fielder looks like in the modern game. Through mid-June, Crow‑Armstrong’s all-around dominance has ignited a resurgent Cubs team.
