The Chicago Bears concluded the 2023 season with a 7-10 record that included an encouraging 4-2 finish. There’s no doubt Chicago is trending in the right direction with a pair of top-10 picks, including incoming rookie quarterback Caleb Williams.
Looking ahead to the 2024 season, the Bears have one of the easiest strengths of schedule in the NFL. Their opponents had a win-loss percentage of .467 and win-loss record of 135-154. Chicago will play seven games against playoff teams from last season and 10 games against teams that had a .500+ win percentage.
