## Resource

Chicago Bears podcast hosts Austin and Reece break down the full 2026 Bears schedule with week-by-week win-loss predictions on the Bear Necessities Podcast. First up, the latest Bears offseason rumors — could Chicago make a move for Max Crosby or Josh Sweat? The guys debate whether either edge rusher is worth the price and why defensive end might be the missing piece for a Bears championship run.Then it's time for the main event: a complete 2026 Chicago Bears schedule breakdown. They start with a Week 1 road trip to Carolina for a Caleb Williams vs Bryce Young rematch, preview the home opener against Kyler Murray and the Minnesota Vikings, and break down a Monday Night Football showdown with the Philadelphia Eagles. Along the way they cover Jaylen Johnson's offseason, the Vikings' offensive line decline, NFC North predictions, and whether Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson can lead the Bears to back-to-back NFC North titles.Subscribe to the Bear Necessities Podcast for weekly Chicago Bears coverage all season long.For Business Inquiries please reach out to: Bearnecessitiespodcast@gmail.com
