Chicago Bears set all sorts of offensive records in Week 1 win
With Ben Johnson as head coach, the Chicago Bears are always trying to be explosive on offense. Their Week 1 matchup against the Carolina Panthers gave the franchise an opportunity to see how far they’ve grown. And Chicago responded by setting numerous records on offense.
The Bears took down the Carolina Panthers 59-37, starting their season 1-0. Chicago is now tied for second-most points scored by a team in Week 1, via Field Yates of ESPN.
“Ben Johnson has said he wants to set scoring records this year,” Yates wrote. “The Bears have scored 59 points today, tied for the 2nd most by any team in Week 1 in NFL history.”
Based on that, it’s probably not all surprising to see the Week 1 win stack up amongst the best in franchise history. Their 59 points scored are now the third-highest ever in a single game, via Erik Duerrwaechter of Windy City Gridiron.
“With that TD the Bears have scored their most points in a single game since dropping 61 on the Packers in 1980 and the 49ers in 1965,” Duerrwaechter wrote. “Franchise record is 73 against Washington in 1940.”
Overall, the Bears gained 552 yards of total offense. They scored six rushing touchdowns total as both D’Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai. Quarterback Caleb Williams ran in two, throwing another two passing touchdowns. He completed 21-of-29 passes for 269 yards and no picks.
Chicago likely won’t be scoring 59 points every game. But the fact they did sent a message to the entire league. There may be some questions on defense, some big ones. But after Week 1, no one is doubting the offensive acumen of Johnson, Williams and the Bears at large.
Week 1 of the 2026 season won’t be forgotten anytime soon by Bears fans. Perhaps the only thing that could make it better is if the fireworks keeping raining down Week 2 against the Minnesota Vikings.
