The Bears must come out swinging after the bye week against an opponent that they are all familiar with.
As the Chicago Bears enjoy their bye week, a massive challenge awaits them after the bye — A rematch with the Washington Commanders. The same team that stunned them last season with a 52-yard Hail Mary touchdown on the final play — a play that not only stole a win but also sent the Bears into a tailspin that derailed their entire 2024 campaign.
Last October, Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels launched a desperation pass that bounced off a crowd of players and landed in the arms of wide receiver Noah Brown, giving Washington an improbable 18-15 win as time expired, just as the Bears had taken a 15-12 lead with 25 seconds left.
