We wrap up our Bears 2025 schedule roundtable series with a poll of the day.
We close out our latest Chicago Bears roundtable, where our team answered a series of questions pertaining to Chicago’s 2025 schedule. So you knew we’d get to this topic eventually.
What’s your Bears record prediction for the 2025 season?
Vote in the poll below after checking out what we had to say.
TJ Starman: It’s been hard to call this one since the opponents were announced, and unfortunately, the schedule release hasn’t brought much more clarification for me. That said, I’ll still err on the side of tempering my expectations and say 7-10.
Sam Householder: I’ll go conservative with 8-9. The schedule is tough but manageable. There are 10 wins to be had, but it depends on how the division shakes out and how teams like San Francisco and Pittsburgh end up.
Josh Sunderbruch: I think 9-8, but they miss the playoffs. Basically, I think ‘Flus was worth two extra losses and Johnson will be worth an extra win, with the improved offensive line being worth another win.
Dr. Mason West: Quick glance? 10-7.
Jeff “JB” Berckes: I see 17 winnable football games, and at the end of the day, I’ll be surprised if they don’t win 10 or 11 of them. Shed your pain from the previous regimes and join me in expecting a winner.
Bryan Orenchuk: I predict we go 11-6. We are not on the championship level of the Ravens or Eagles, and we still play in the toughest division in football, but we have a much-improved roster with even more improved coaching.
Ryan Droste: Looking at things right now, before the inevitable ebs and flows of the season throw all of this out the window, I have the Bears at 11-6. We tried this exercise on Bears Over Beers last week and that’s where I came out. I see the Bears pretty much splitting games with all three teams in the division. I have them going 4-4 down the stretch, starting with the Vikings game in mid-November. But I think they get off to a decent start, 3-1 before the Bye.
Lester A. Wiltfong Jr.: It’s a tough schedule, but there are really only two games where I can’t talk myself into them having a chance to win. Last year’s roster was better than 5-11, but the coaching let them down. The 2025 roster has improved in the trenches, and Ben Johnson’s offense will be like nothing we’ve ever seen in Chicago. I also think fans are sleeping on what an upgrade Dennis Allen will be on defense. Give me the Bears at 11-5 heading into week 18 against the Detroit Lions with the NFC North on the line.
