The Chicago Bears bye week gives them a chance to self-scout and improve from the first four weeks, but it's a small sample size to judge.

The team was just building momentum, but now they get extra time to prepare for an important rematch with the Washington Commanders.

The Chicago Bears have won two games in a row, but can their progress actually be trusted? Or did they just beat bad teams?

They have real flaws that won't go away, but they also have shown tangible improvement through the first four games.

The Chicago Bears' struggles on the offensive line go beyond just the left tackle.

Theo Benedet could be an upgrade over Braxton Jones, but the group as a whole has to get better, and they need to find an identity in the running game.

The Chicago Bears have to get a lot better after an ugly win over the Las Vegas Raiders, especially in the ground game on both sides of the ball.

The solutions aren't anything easy or obvious, but the bye week will give them the opportunity to identify what's going wrong and fix it.

The Chicago Bears of the past lose that game to the Las Vegas Raiders. Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams found a way to win, despite an ugly game.

They made plenty of mistakes, but the offense, defense and special teams did just enough to get the win.

It was an UGLY game for Ben Johnson and the Chicago Bears but an impressive drive for Caleb Williams that ended in a rushing TD by D'Andre Swift and then a blocked field goal gets the Bears the win over the Raiders and back to 500.

A healthy Chicago Bears team should beat the Las Vegas Raiders. If the injury report continues to look bad, that task could get a lot harder.

We look at how injuries to Darnell Wright, Grady Jarrett, Colston Loveland, D'Andre Swift, T.J. Edwards and Kyler Gordon could shape Sunday's game.

The Chicago Bears have struggled to stop the run this season, and Dennis Allen's defense can't allow the Las Vegas Raiders to get Ashton Jeanty going for the first time.

Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams should be able to move the ball and hold up their end of the bargain, if they can keep Maxx Crosby at bay.

The Chicago Bears defense has real flaws that aren't going away, but the group should continue to get better this season under Dennis Allen.

The defense will get healthier, the younger players will develop, and you can never rule out a free agent addition like C.J. Gardner-Johnson.

Some of the Chicago Bears success against the Dallas Cowboys was thanks to a bad Matt Eberflus defense, but some of the progress was sustainable growth.

Even without a running game, Ben Johnson finally put together the successful formula for Caleb Williams. Playing against Matt Eberflus and the Dallas Cowboys definitely helped.

Dennis Allen's defense made some real progress, too, with the pass rush finding some life to make up for injuries in the secondary.

The Chicago Bears offense made a lot of progress last week, and now Caleb Williams is primed for another big step forward against a bad Dallas Cowboys defense.

The challenge will be whether Dennis Allen's defense can keep up against Dak Prescott already in midseason form.

Neither the Chicago Bears nor the Dallas Cowboys have the cornerbacks to match up with the other team's wide receivers. 

Both defenses will be tested in Week 3, and both offenses will tasked with out-scoring the other.

The Chicago Bears' slow start has exposed some real problems with Ryan Poles' roster, but not everything can be blamed on the general manager.

Some problems are directly Poles' fault, and other aspects might require more patience for Ben Johnson and Dennis Allen.

What are your expectations for the Chicago Bears and Caleb Williams the rest of the season? Can Ben Johnson and Dennis Allen going in the right direction? Jaylon Johnson is out for maybe the entire season. How do you grade Caleb Williams performance on Sunday?

The Chicago Bears had cornerback injuries throughout training camp and the preseason, and Ryan Poles failed to add more depth. Now, they're in trouble.

Jaylon Johnson's season-ending injury leaves the secondary thin for Dennis Allen, and the Bears don't have many decent options.

The Chicago Bears gave up 50+ points for the first time since 2014, as the Detroit Lions exposed Dennis Allen's defense from start to finish.

The real question is whether Ryan Poles gave the defense enough talent or whether they're not being coached well enough.

    Cardiac Cowboys

    The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
