"Caleb Williams took off and established himself not only as the Bears' franchise quarterback but also as one of the game's most clutch performers. As for the team, they won 11 regular-season games, captured the NFC North for the first time since 2018, beat the Packers twice, won a playoff game, and were one miscommunication against the Rams away from an NFC Championship bid."
"In one year, the Chicago Bears went from one of the league's laughingstocks to a top contender for the foreseeable future in the NFC. So, naturally, just about anyone would have given Ben Johnson's performance this season an 'A' grade. It turns out that, according to the NFLPA's player report cards, the Bears' roster agrees."
"Chicago's football organization received seven 'A' or 'A-minus' grades, and their lowest grade was a 'C', which was for their Home Game Field. But seriously, it's awesome to see the organization earn high marks from the players. Because truly, that's what matters."
