The Chicago Bears dropped to 2-4 on the season following their loss to the Detroit Lions in Week 6, but they will look to bounce back after their Week 7 bye.
Following back-to-back comeback victories over the Oakland Raiders and Kansas City Chiefs, the Bears could not do enough on both offense and defense to stave off the Lions in Week 6. Head coach John Fox is still learning about his team, and he admitted the Bears need to build confidence.
“If you don’t believe in yourself, how is anyone else going to believe in you?” Fox said, per the Chicago Tribune‘s Dan Wiederer. “So there’s an element to coaching that up. We have 53 guys and it takes a minute to feel them all out on what makes them tick.”
The Bears will take on the Minnesota Vikings at Soldier Field in Week 8, and it will be the 108th meeting between the two teams since 1961. The Vikings lead the all-time series with a 55-51-2 record, but the Bears have won seven of the last 10 meetings between the two teams.
Some players showed progress in Week 6, but others took a step back in their development. Whose stock is rising and whose stock is falling as the Bears head into their Sunday matchup with the Vikings?
