Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell had a brief, but clear, message for Ben Johnson and the Chicago Bears ahead of their Week 18 rematch.

Would Ben Johnson consider resting key players for the postseason? Brad Biggs answers your Chicago Bears questions weekly.

When the Detroit Lions met the Chicago Bears in the two teams' first meeting of 2025, the Lions rolled to a 52-21 win against the Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams-led Bears in Week 2. That victory jumpstarted a four-game winning streak for the Lions and it also dropped the Bears to 0-2 to begin the season. But, a lot has changed since then.

Bears HC Ben Johnson discussed whether or not he believes that the team can carry their momentum over to this week vs. 49ers.

Ben Johnson's Chicago Bears suffered a 42-38 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 17 on Sunday. The Bears had a chance to win the contest on the final play of the game, but Caleb Williams' intended pass for Jahdae Walker hit the ground just in front of the receiver.

In order for the Bears to clinch the No. 1 seed in the conference, Chicago has to win out against the 49ers on Sunday night and then beat the Lions at Soldier Field in Week 18 PLUS have the Seattle Seahawks lose one of their final two games against either the Carolina Panthers or the 49ers.

The Chicago Bears have several assistant coaches who could draw interest from other NFL teams this offseason, according to CBS Sports.

A tradition going back beyond the great 1963 Bears defense and extending into the 2020s is getting destroyed in San Francisco.
