The Chicago Bears (1-5) were unable to snap their home-losing streak, with a 19-13 loss to the Minnesota Vikings (2-4), on Sunday. Chicago has now lost 10 straight home games.
Another not-so-fun fact: With that loss to the Vikings, the Bears are now 0-8 against NFC North teams in the Ryan Poles/Matt Eberflus era.
Potentially the biggest loss from that game was quarterback Justin Fields, who left the game in the second half due to a dislocated thumb on his throwing hand. Fields leaving the game opened the door for the Bears undrafted rookie quarterback Tyson Bagent, who brought a little life into a dying offense.
The timetable for Fields’ return is unknown — although he’s doubtful for Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders (3-3) — and we haven’t seen Bagent play an entire game yet. This week will be interesting.
With that said, here’s where the Bears stand in the power rankings going into Week 7.
