As we begin our journey through the NFC North we make a detour by reacting to the New York Knicks capturing their first NBA Championship in 53 years. Then, we hit the ice to congratulate the Carolina Hurricanes, who just hoisted the Stanley Cup after defusing the Vegas Golden Knights in a thrilling 6-game series to secure their second title in franchise history.
With minicamps officially wrapping up at Halas Hall, head coach Ben Johnson has this roster hopeful for a deep playoff run. We dissect both sides of the ball and drop our official projections:
The Offense: Caleb Williams is entering year three, and the ascending superstar says there is "so much left to unlock." We break down his growing chemistry with dynamic weapon with Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III, alongside the explosive speed of rookie Zavion Thomas.
The Defense: General manager Ryan Poles didn't leave the defense untouched. We analyze the reconstructed secondary, highlighting the arrival of veteran safety Coby Bryant and the drafting of hybrid playmaker Dillon Thieneman to anchor the backend alongside Montez Sweat's pass rush.
Schedule Predictions: We map out a game-by-game breakdown of the 2026 schedule, starting with a Week 1 road test against the Carolina Panthers, an early Week 3 Monday Night Football showdown against the Eagles at Soldier Field, and the inevitable dogfights in the NFC North.
