Expectations for the next Bears season already seem elevated to extreme heights, and there can be a danger with this. pic.twitter.com/FUwj9iaNdc — See Red Fred (@cbefred) January 19, 2026Did the Bears win too fast? The Bears won that playoff game over Minnesota in 1994, his second year, not his first. If you have heightened expectations, it's sure better than what Bears fans have gotten used to since 2019. Of course, patience always has a breaking point an it's likely to be well before they've had one playoff berth in six years, like Wannstedt's Bears had.
