Where the Bears rank statistically after Week 12

The Chicago Bears (3-9) were defeated, 31-10, by the New York Jets (7-4), where they suffered some brutal injuries to key starters.

The Bears have lost five straight games for the third consecutive season, where they’re competing for a top-five draft selection. Chicago currently holds the second overall pick, and they’ve found their franchise quarterback in Justin Fields, so it’s not all bad.
