1 week ago | beargoggleson.com | Jaleel Grandberry

The Chicago Bears have invested a lot into their offense, but analysts believe the unit still has a flaw that could limit the team’s ceiling. It seems like Chicago Bears fans convince themselves every offseason that this is the year things get turned around, but 2025 really should be the year things start to improve for the better— at least offensively.

While Christmas may be months away, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson recently experienced that feeling in June, during minicamp.

Browns’ early schedule is more welcoming for a rookie quarterback than people think

Everyone expects at least one, or both, of the Cleveland Browns’ rookie quarterbacks to see the field at some point in the 2025 season. With Cleveland not expected to be competitive, it makes sense for the franchise to see what they have in the young guys before entering the 2026 offseason with two first-round picks.

Henry had the second best season of his career, rushing for 1,921 yards and 16 touchdowns. Now, the team is running things back, hoping to actually get to the Super Bowl this time. In the offseason, that’s every team’s goal, but each franchise has obstacles that could prevent that from happening.
