It's been a strange few weeks for the Bears, but they have kept winning despite starting quarterback Caleb Williams going down with a hamstring injury in their only loss. That ugly 9-3 setback to the Vikings in Week 2 followed an offensive onslaught against the Panthers in the opener. Chicago won that one 59-37 behind 267 passing yards, 65 rushing yards and four total TDs from Williams.
Case Keenum and Tyson Bagent have started the past two games, with the veteran Keenum throwing for 247 yards in a win against the Eagles and Bagent, who should start Sunday, throwing for 268 last week as Chicago beat the Jets. Caleb Williams (hamstring) was limited on Friday and is questionable, but Bagent is still seen as likely to start. The Bears keep winning because they can run the ball against almost anyone, as they average an NFL-best 196.3 yards on the ground.
Running backs Kyle Monangai (314 yards) and D'Andre Swift (311) lead the attack, and receivers Rome Odunze, Kalif Raymond and Luther Burden III all have more than 200 receiving yards. Monangai is out for this week, however. The Bears lead the NFL in total offense at 429 yards per game and score 28 points per contest (ninth).
