The Chicago Bears concluded the 2024 NFL season with a 5-12 record, marking their fourth consecutive losing season and a last-place finish in the NFC North. The season began with optimism, especially with the selection of quarterback Caleb Williams as the first overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Despite a promising 4-2 start, the Bears endured a ten-game losing streak, tying a franchise record set in 2022. This downturn led to significant coaching changes: offensive coordinator Shane Waldron was dismissed after Week 10, and head coach Matt Eberflus was relieved of his duties following a Thanksgiving Day loss to the Detroit Lions. Thomas Brown stepped in as interim head coach, securing a season-ending victory over the Green Bay Packers with a last-second field goal by Cairo Santos, snapping both a ten-game overall losing streak and an eleven-game skid against their rivals. Despite the challenges, cornerback Jaylon Johnson earned Pro Bowl honors, and Williams showed resilience amid a struggling offensive line. As the Bears enter the offseason, the focus shifts to solidifying the coaching staff and bolstering the roster to support their young quarterback's development.
