The Big Swing
Chicago’s 2025 blueprint is straightforward: make Caleb Williams’ second season about stability and structure. After years of inconsistency, the Bears now offer their young QB clean pockets, repeatable formation families, and receivers who win early in the route. The arrival of offensive coordinator Ben Johnson is central—his system thrives on rhythm and defined reads, helping quarterbacks avoid chaos. With Williams paired alongside DJ Moore, rookie Rome Odunze, and TE Cole Kmet, Chicago finally has a balanced perimeter group that can carry drives instead of hoping for broken plays.

The Coach’s Hand
Ben Johnson’s style is clarity and simplicity: motion and angles to lighten boxes, quick throws that keep the QB in rhythm, and play-action that forces defenders to hesitate. Williams doesn’t need to chase highlight throws on every down—he can stay on schedule and pick his spots. Defensively, Matt Eberflus sticks with his trademark formula: rush with four, live in two-high shells, and force offenses to stack long drives without freebies.

Key Transactions

  • Coaching hire: Johnson, the coveted ex-Lions OC, gives Chicago its most stable offensive direction in years.

  • Roster stability: Minimal trades or flashy moves—the value is in keeping the system intact and building trust.

  • Draft impact: Rome Odunze, the No. 9 pick, adds size and speed to complement Moore and Kmet.

Roster Spine

  • QB & perimeter: Williams, Moore, and Odunze form a legit trio. Moore handles isolation, Odunze punishes soft coverage, and Kmet works red-zone and third downs.

  • OL & run game: Improvement inside is the hinge point—if the line is average, backs like Khalil Herbert and Roschon Johnson can turn negative plays into manageable downs.

  • Defense: Montez Sweat remains the front’s centerpiece; the back end relies on disciplined zone coverage and sound tackling.

By the Numbers: Model vs. Market

  • AccuScore projection: 7.0 wins, 15.75% playoff odds, 4.28% division title chance.

  • Vegas line: 8.5 wins, implied 37.04% playoff odds (+170), 17.39% division chance (+475).

  • Super Bowl futures: Chicago sits between +4000 and +5000 (DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM), an implied chance of ~2.0–2.4%.

The Bottom Line
The Bears don’t need fireworks—they need sturdiness. If the offensive line is competent and Williams stays on time, Chicago transforms from “promising but erratic” to “legit NFC wildcard threat.” The market is clearly buying a Year-2 leap; the models remain cautious. December in Chicago will reveal which side is right.

What is Accuscore?


Accuscore provides predictive analytics on sports, based on the company’s own algorithmic simulation engine which has been under constant development for almost two decades. Sports predictions are an outcome of simulations in which individual games are simulated for thousands of times in order to arrive to the most likely results. These results are then used to create analytical predictions, content and advice for bettors, pundits or any stakeholders in the industry or media field. For the individual US users, Accuscore’s predictions can be accessed through subscription to BetQL.

The Accuscore simulation engine uses the relevant historical data of the players, teams and leagues to predict the outcomes of the games before they have started. The simulation results are based on the individual player performances and weighted according to the teams’ form, opponent and other circumstances that have been proven relevant to the outcome of the match. We have managed to filter out the unnecessary data-points by determining which are important and which are not – this has taken several hundreds of thousands of simulations, cross-references and comparisons of simulation results to actual outcomes.

Accuscore aims to provide independent, unbiased and objective sports predictions for all the customers. We strive to be transparent and all our simulations results are available in the archives. Throughout the years Accuscore has worked with several betting companies, for example Pinnacle and Coolbet, media houses such as Telia and Sporing News, sports teams and leagues, and of course individuals through our subscription service.

Our capabilities include tailoring the sports predictions service to any B2B need with different licensing models, revenue sharing programs or affiliate markets. We can package content based on the simulations in several different ways, which can include automated widgets, unique articles, videos or pure numbers from a feed – whatever suits your needs!

How to use Accuscore sports predictions?

Accuscore’s simulations provide various advantages for both businesses and individuals. The simulations are based on a sovereign algorithmic system and all the simulations are always ran the exact same way. The only variables are the data inputs which the simulation engine then uses to create the sports predictions according to the algorithmic model. The model has a proven track record and for example the NFL picks have provided constant profit over the years.

The simulations provide probabilities for the outcomes of the games which include – depending of the sport – for example the most likely final result, the amount of goals or points and player performances. These sport predictions can be compared to odds in order to make a more educated betting decision or they can be used to support, oppose or adjust ones view on the betting market.

For businesses the sports predictions provide an opportunity to use original content in various forms which can be modified to suit any need, for example: providing more information to customers, attracting traffic or users, as unique content to publish or for other marketing purposes such as short videos for social media. We are happy to tailor our service for each B2B customer.
