Chicago Bears defense hits 26-year low in embarrassing loss vs. Packers
The Chicago Bears defense was riding high entering Week 5’s matchup against the Green Bay Packers. They hadn’t allowed more than 12 points in their previous three matchups.
However, the Bears were unable to live up to the those standards, losing 31-7 and dropping to 3-2 on the year. Packers quarterback Jordan Love completed 25-of-31 passes for 367 yards and two touchdowns. His performance helped Green Bay rack up 428 total yards on offense.
The Bears will now go back to the drawing board when it comes to their Week 6 defensive strategy. Chicago will watch the tape and see what changes need to be made. Defensive coordinator Dennis Allen will then make sure they’re implemented in a timely fashion.
It won’t take long before the Bears see one crucial misstep in their Week 5 plan. Especially because it set new infamous franchise history.

Love managed to complete four passes of 40+ yards. That’s the most the Bears have allowed in a game since 2020, via TruMedia Sports, h/t Kevin Fishbain of the Athletic.
The Bears have allowed four pass plays of 40+ yards today, the most they’ve given up in a game since at least 2000,” Fishbain wrote.
Chicago has dealt with injuries and changes to their secondary throughout the season. But in Week 5, it was no match for the Packers. Green Bay was able to consistently get behind Chicago’s defenders. On 50/50 balls, the Bears were unmatched at times.
Allen will surely be spending some extra time with the secondary at practice. Kyler Gordon is nearing a return, which could help. But the Bears need their currently rostered players to step up. It’ll be hard to win games allowing nearly 400 passing yards, even with Caleb Williams under center.
The Bears defense has put a lot of good tape out there in 2026. But Week 5 was not one of those moments. Chicago will hope the next time they make history it’s for all the right reasons.
