The Story of the 2015 Chicago Bears

The first season for the Bears under Head Coach John Fox showed promise towards seasons to come.  They finished the season 6-10 but were in most of their games losing six of those games by less than a touchdown and came back to beat the Chiefs after RB Jamaal Charles went down with injury.

Unfortunately for the Bears, they had to go an entire season without their first round pick, Kevin White, who missed the season with a stress fracture in his shin.  However he should be healthy for all of 2016 as of right now and will pair up nicely with the Bears top receiver, Alshon Jeffrey.

The Bears did get a lot out of their fourth round pick, Jeremy Langford, RB Michigan State.  This was key since the usually healthy Matt Forte went down with an injury and Langford was expected to replace Forte, and replace him he did.  Langford stepped up so much that the Bears felt comfortable enough with not resigning Forte when his contract came up after the 2015 season.

The Chicago Bears seem to be working in the right direction and even beat their rival Green Bay Packers on their Thanksgiving day in November.  John Fox took both the Panthers and the Broncos to a Super Bowl unfortunately to lose both of them but Bears fans hope to replicate the success of getting to a Super Bowl with Fox and hopefully get, not only their first Super Bowl win since 1985 but also John Fox's first Super Bowl win.

Only time will tell how the Bears do in 2016 but one thing is for sure it is time for the Bears to go back to their defensive minded teams that Chicago is known for but also have success with Cutler, Langford, Jeffery and White.
