PFF ratings for Bears starters ahead of 2024 NFL season
Pro Football Focus has slowly released its ratings for the 2024 NFL season. And they finally released the ratings for each projected starter on every NFL team.
As a team, PFF ranks the Bears as the 20th-best team in the NFL. They answered key questions about the Bears’ season, too, including their projection that the Bears will win less than 8.5 regular season games.
“On one hand, the Bears are a team with an ascending defense and a loaded receiving corps,” PFF wrote. “On the other, they are a team with a rookie gunslinger, a new offensive coordinator and bottom-five trench units on both sides of the ball. Expectations are high, but patience will likely be needed as the Bears try to build a sustainable future.”
With that being said, here are all the PFF ratings for each projected Bears starter. (Note: An * denotes a player’s PFF rating from their last season in college i.e. Caleb Williams.)
