The Chicago Bears just pulled off an EPIC offseason rebuild, landing top free agents and elite draft picks to completely transform their offensive and defensive lines!
Bad news for Bears fans—Trey Smith is off the market! The Chiefs have franchise tagged their star guard, blocking Chicago from landing a top offensive lineman in free agency. To make things worse, Drew Dalman is asking for too much money at center. What's next for the Bears? Who are the best backup options? We break it all down in this episode!
The Chicago Bears are already making moves to the roster. Cutting players now gives them ample opportunity to sign with other teams earlier.Were the roster cuts the right decision for this team? Let us know how you feel in our comments on our YouTube page!Ian Cunningham was a finalist for the Jacksonville Jaguars general manager position. Many wanted to see him receive the gig to give the Bears an extra third-round pick in 2025 and another extra third-round pick in 2026.That did not happen though as Cunningham is sticking around.The Chicago Bears have a lot of holes to fill and the team needs to find players who not only meet their salary investments but, also exceed them.They especially need help in the trenches.Will the additional money they received from cutting two key players on the 2024 roster be everything Poles and Ben Johnson need to make a serious run in 2025?
In Part 2 of the Halas Huddle mock offseason, the Chicago Bears spend big in free agency by signing multiple top free agents. Did they choose wisely?Ryan Poles and Ben Johnson add some key players to the roster while leaving some cap space to roll over into 2026.These targeted signings will help the Chicago Bears reach playoff contention as early as 2025.Will the additional free agents help set the Chicago Bears up for the 2025 NFL Draft? It will definitely give them some added flexibility.What about the idea of making a trade instead? There are trade rumors that the Bears might be interested in trading for a top edge rusher, but will the guys at Halas Huddle follow those rumors or follow their own draft strategy?Make sure to check out our free NFL jersey giveaway on YouTube!

The 2025 NFL Draft is a few months away, but draft season is heavily upon us.The NFL Combine is only a few weeks away and with a new coaching staff, it's time to make some big changes.We recently released our first mock draft of the season, and Rob spoke to the fact that the draft class isn't top-heavy.With only two quarterbacks projected to go in the top 10, not many players will fall to the Bears at 10.Also, many analysts have very different prospects within their top 10.Rob shares the only players he finds worthy of a top-10 pick.He and Justin discuss which players make sense for the Chicago Bears at 10.Will the Bears go with an offensive lineman like Will Campbell or Kelvin Banks? Will they make a splash to somehow land Abdul Carter? What about going with a running back like Ashton Jeanty?Who else makes the worthy list, and are the Chicago Bears likely to draft a player at the 10 spot or will they trade back?Head over to our signup page to find all the best sportsbooks and betting odds within your region.https://signupexpert.com/huddleLooking for some great Chicago Bears memorabilia?

FREE NFL JERSEY GIVEAWAY on DECEMBER 15!!! (Must be subscribed to our YouTube Page)The Chicago Bears were supposed to come out with a different sense of urgency.Matt Eberflus is laughing as he watched this team fall apart even more against one of the best-coached teams in the NFL - the 49ers.The 49ers were always going to be a tough team to beat, but when they were playing with most of their team banged up or out, the Chicago Bears had a glimmer of hope. That wasn't what happened on the field though.The Chicago Bears came out flat once again and Justin and Bob go through what went wrong. Is Thomas Brown not the answer as head coach?Is it time for Ryan Poles to also be let go?Does this team need a complete rebuild again?It is tiresome being a Chicago Bears fan.It's the same ol' story over and over and over again.Â
The Chicago Bears have made some big mistakes over the years. Will their recent incompetence cost them in their upcoming search for a new head coach?Can Thomas Brown build upon his recent success as the Chicago Bears' new offensive coordinator? Being an interim head coach is not easy. If Brown proves not to be the best suitor for the job, will Ryan Poles and Kevin Warren find a coach who will improve Caleb Williams' development and finally start winning?Matt Eberflus is gone, and Thomas Brown is in, but who will be the next head coach for the Chicago Bears?Justin and Bob talk about some news or noise topics, while also taking a look at the upcoming opponent - the San Francisco 49ers.FREE NFL JERSEY GIVEAWAY WILL BE ON DEC 15.

Matt Eberflus is fired and the Chicago Bears are moving on with Thomas Brown as their interim head coach. However, even the firing of Eberflus was not done correctly. This organization proves once again that they are subpar in so many ways.Matt Eberflus broke the final straw with a botched timeout situation, but let's not forget the blocked field goal vs. Green Bay or the Hail Mary against Washington.Eberflus deserved to be fired and it's about time the Chicago Bears make history!George McCaskey needs to directly apologize to Chicago Bears fans for causing this problem and Ryan Poles needs to own up to the issues as well.Kevin Warren cannot stay silent any longer either. Bears fans deserve better!Caleb Williams at least looks legit and we will see who the next coaching candidates will be after the season ends.Thomas Brown has a chance to show something, but hot names like Ben Johnson and Mike Vrabel come to mind.Liam Coen or even Todd Monken might be another possibility.SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube channel for a chance to be entered into a FREE NFL JERSEY GIVEAWAY!

Like clockwork, the Chicago Bears fall to the Green Bay Packers again. The Bears are supposed to change things but cannot beat their biggest rival.I guess it is a step in the right direction that the Bears at least covered the spread.That also hasn't happened in 10 years.Caleb Williams played well and the defense played just well enough.It came down to another fourth-quarter drive to put the Bears in position to win.This time, instead of a Hail Mary, the Chicago Bears made poor decisions and allowed a blocked field goal to seal their fate.Thomas Brown called a much better game than we have seen from Shane Waldron. Rob and Justin talk about why Matt Eberflus has to be fired and the Chicago Bears, especially Ryan Poles (assuming he also isn't fired), need to get the next coaching hire correct.SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube Channel for a chance to WIN a FREE NFL JERSEY!Want to bet on the Chicago Bears or any other NFL team?Use our signup page via BetStamp to find the best odds and signup offers. https://www.signupexpert.com/huddle

The 2024 NFL Draft has come to a close. The Chicago Bears walked away with one of the best on-paper drafts we have ever seen in Chicago. Ryan Poles is proving that he is the best general manager in Bears history.After fleecing the Carolina Panthers, the Bears finish with the first pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. That pick ended up becoming one of the best quarterback prospects I have ever seen. Poles wasn't done though, he also had the ninth pick in the draft and he found a way to pair Williams with one of the top wide receiver prospects in Rome Odunze.The Bears were not done there though. They snagged the top punter prospect in the draft when they selected Iowa punter Tory Taylor. The Chicago Bears found their swing tackle who could give left tackle Braxton Jones some true competition. Finally, Poles and his staff moved back up into the fifth round to add much-needed defensive line help in edge rusher Austin Booker.Overall, the Chicago Bears dominated the 2024 NFL Draft. They walked away with some elite talent while also using draft capital to add guys like Montez Sweat, Keenan Allen and Ryan Bates. This is a new era on offense for a Chicago Bears team that hasn't been dominant on offense throughout the current air-it-out playing style. We are expecting Caleb Williams to destroy the current franchise rookie quarterback records while also pushing this team into a legit playoff hunt. Not to mention the expectation of future Super Bowls.If you are as excited as we are, hit that SUBSCRIBE button on our YouTube channel for a chance to win a free Bears jersey of your choosing.

Caleb Williams will be selected first overall but who will the team take with the ninth pick in the draft?A consensus of 23 NFL and Draft analysts has the team taking Rome Odunze over anyone else, but a few think it could be Jared Verse, Olu Fashanu, Dallas Turner, Marvin Harrison, or Malik Nabers. Who is right and who is wrong?Caleb Williams had a shocking revelation when talking to the media and listed four players he'd like the Chicago Bears to draft at ninth overall. Three of them were obvious but hearing the fourth name and why he wanted him probably has many fans second-guessing things. He definitely did not say, Byron Murphy.If you want the Chicago Bears to draft Caleb Williams, hit the SUBSCRIBE button on our YouTube page now and try to earn a free Bears jersey.

The 2024 NFL Draft is nearly here. The Chicago Bears seem zeroed in on Caleb Williams with the first pick in the draft. With the ninth pick in the draft, Ryan Poles has plenty of options. The question is, which draft strategy will be best for the Bears? Which players make the most sense for the Bears?Rob and Justin bring you three different draft strategies that Ryan Poles could use at the end of the month. They also dive into which players make the most sense for the Chicago Bears while proving that you cannot be locked into only one strategy. The Bears have needs at wide receiver, offensive line, defensive end and safety. Defensive tackle could be another area that the Chicago Bears focus on.However, with only four picks in the draft, Ryan Poles will need to be at the top of his game to come away from the draft with every hole filled. Are there any must-have players in this draft outside of Malik Nabers, Rome Odunze, Joe Alt and Marvin Harrison, Jr.? What about the top edge rushers? Do you prefer Jared Verse, Dallas Turner, Laiatu Latu or Chop Robinson?Which of the 3 mock drafts did you prefer? If you didn't fully agree with the players we picked, who would you prefer to see taken instead? We used the Pro Football Focus mock draft simulator, but the actual draft will likely look very different in certain areas.Head to our YouTube page and leave us a comment!!

It finally happened. The Chicago Bears traded Justin Fields. It took longer than expected and the return seems less than ideal. Was it truly the worst move of Ryan Poles' career as the Bears' general manager?Rob, Justin and special guest Bob discuss the Fields trade. They weigh in on the compensation and also elaborate on how the move from Chicago to Pittsburgh could affect Fields' career.The Chicago Bears have been busy in free agency also. They traded for Keenan Allen, while also signing D'Andre Swift, Kevin Byard, Jonathan Owens and Gerald Everett. Ryan Poles also brought in a new center in Coleman Shelton.The roster has been improved, but what will the Chicago Bears do in the 2024 NFL Draft now that they only have four picks? Good thing those draft picks are early and they can add more talent while also adding more draft capital. The obvious direction is Caleb Williams at first overall.Hit that SUBSCRIBE button and get entered into a FREE giveaway of a Chicago Bears jersey.

The 2024 NFL Combine has come to a close. Many thought Justin Fields would be traded by now. That isn't the case, but it does seem like it is just a matter of time as multiple reports have the Chicago Bears trading Fields and drafting Caleb Williams or another high-end quarterback prospect.Rob and Justin put their GM hats on and ran a full seven-round mock draft. After trading Justin Fields to the Atlanta Falcons, the guys settled on Caleb Williams with the first-overall pick. Multiple trades later and Ryan Poles and the Chicago Bears have some serious ammunition to use at the top of the draft.In fact, they end up with five picks in the top 55. How did you like the outcome of the 2024 NFL Draft? Personally, I am not a fan of the outcome. Hopefully, after free agency, we will have an even better idea of what Ryan Poles will have in his back pocket when entering the 2024 NFL Draft and what the Bears will need.If you are a Chicago Bears fan, hit the SUBSCRIBE button on our YouTube Channel and be ENTERED into a FREE giveaway of a BEARS JERSEY of your choice!!
We are less than a month away from the start of free agency. In this mock offseason, the Chicago Bears find a way to bring back Jaylon Johnson before he explores free agency. It might be on the franchise tag but a deal is on the horizon.Rob, Justin, and Bob rank every position on the Chicago Bears roster and determine which areas are considered must-fill positions in either free agency, the 2024 NFL Draft, or both.Next, the guys put their Ryan Poles hats on and become the general manager of the Bears in a mock free-agency period. Although big names are important and discussed, how many are realistic options for this team? After cutting Eddie Jackson and Cody Whitehair, the Chicago Bears have the third-most salary cap space to work with at roughly $70 million.If you want a chance to WIN a FREE Chicago Bears jersey of your choosing, then make sure to hit that SUBSCRIBE button on our YouTube channel to be entered in our FREE GIVEAWAY!!
