Now that the Chicago Bears' schedule has officially been released, it is a good time to look through every game and see what will be the toughest tests for Chicago. How does every week rank amongst the Bears schedule?
Week 4 vs Jets
This is an early-season home game against a team with an unsettled quarterback. If this is not a win, the Bears have problems.
Week 14 at Dolphins
While it is a road game, the Dolphins are expected to be one of the worst teams in the NFL. Chicago knows Malik Willis better than most, too.
Week 13 vs Jaguars
Jacksonville was a playoff team last season, but this is a home game in December against a team from Florida. The weather should favor Chicago.
Week 2 vs Vikings
A division game is never easy, but Minnesota will have a shaky quarterback spot this early into the season, and Chicago is at home.
Week 6 at Falcons
A road trip to a potentially raucous environment is not easy, but the Falcons are unstable at quarterback.
Week 9 vs Bucs
The Bucs lost Mike Evans and are in a bit of a re-shift. A road game in Chicago will be tough for them.
Week 11 vs Saints
The Saints are trending up, but this is a dome team traveling to a potentially colder environment.
Week 3 vs Eagles
The Eagles are never an easy win, but it is a home game, and the early-season struggles might show with a new coordinator in Philadelphia.
Week 1 at Panthers
Winning in Week 1 on the road is not easy. The good news is that Chicago is a bit better than Carolina on paper. Still, Carolina will be healthy and will be all in to start the season on a good note.
Week 18 at Vikings
A road trip against a division rival is not easy, but the question is what will be at stake in week 18.
Week 7 vs Patriots
They host the Patriots, but it is a short week against a Super Bowl contender, so a lot could happen in this one.
Week 17 vs Lions
This game is sandwiched between two other division games, making it tough for a late-season duel.
Week 16 vs Packers
The Bears host the Packers, but it is on a short week after traveling to Buffalo. This is a tough stretch.
Week 12 at Lions
A road game on Thanksgiving is never easy, if Chicago has been there before.
Week 5 at Packers
On the road in Lambeau Field will always be a top-three hard game.
Week 8 at Seattle
A road trip to the Super Bowl champions' house on prime time will not be easy.
Week 15 at Buffalo
Late in the season, on the road, in a tough environment, is one thing, but they have three division battles after this, too.
