Chicago Bears Schedule 2025 Season – Chicago Bears Regular Season Games, Dates, Locations, and More

The Chicago Bears have a daunting schedule in 2025

Last year was a major disappointment for Bears fans. Chicago has had only a couple of meaningful seasons since their 2010 campaign, when they last reached the NFC Championship game, losing to the Packers. Since then, the Bears fanbase has suffered nothing but heartbreak year in and year out. However, all that was supposed to change in 2024.

Chicago’s last offseason was a hugely productive one at least on paper. They already had a top-notch defense and needed to put in the correct pieces on offense. The Bears’ management did a fine job drafting the much-sought-after Caleb Williams with the number one overall pick. They also gave him weapons with receivers such as D.J. Moore, Keenan Allen, and Rome Odunze, along with D’Andre Swift in the backfield. Yet, the team still finished the year with a 5-12 record.

At one point in the initial part of the season, Chicago was on track to keep pace in the NFC North, but eventually, they fell to last place in the division. This will help them with the schedule in 2025. And while the exact schedule is not out yet, the list of opponents is already set.

Chicago Bears 2025 Season Home Games

Since the Bears are in the NFC, they will be playing just 8 home games and will be on the road for 9 due to the NFL’s policy of alternating 9 home games each year between the AFC and the NFC. 3 of Chicago’s 8 home games will feature divisional opponents from the NFC North, those being the Packers, Lions, and Vikings.

Chicago will then play 2 home games against 2 teams from one division in the NFC as well as one from the AFC. This year, the NFC North will face teams from the NFC East with the Cowboys and Giants making their way to Chicago. The two AFC teams they will host will be the Browns and Steelers from the AFC North. The remaining home game will be against the fourth-placed New Orleans Saints from the NFC South.

Chicago Bears 2025 Season Away Games

Of the Bears’ 9 away games, 3 of them will once again feature the Packers, Lions, and Vikings from their own division. Another 4 games will be played against the Eagles and Commanders from the NFC East and the Ravens and Bengals from the AFC North respectively.

Chicago will then travel to San Francisco to play against the 49ers who are the fourth-placed team from the NFC West and to Las Vegas to play the Raiders from the AFC West.
