Chicago Bears fans are really enjoying (and getting used to) this winning thing as the team picked up another one after dominating the Cleveland Browns 31-3.
It was an overall team win, from the offense's near-400 yards to the defense forcing three turnovers to the special teams dominating the field-position game. Bears fans have been craving for this kind of performance for a long time, as they never saw it in the Matt Eberflus era over the last three years.
New Bears head coach Ben Johnson spoke with the media to ask if the first 10 wins meant anything to him. Johnson had the perfect response that all Bears fans wanted to hear.
"Not really," Johnson said via CHGO. "We're just onto the next one, you know. 10's great but not enough."
Wish that would have been said when Eberflus was head coach
How many times did Eberflus say the above quote? Zero is the correct answer since seven is the most wins he has had in a season.
Johnson's mindset and the culture he has built are the most significant reasons this Bears team is so different from the ones under Eberflus. There is a different swagger to the team that was missing over the last three years, and it can only be ingrained, not self-taught.
This season feels like an out-of-this-world experience, but the Bears have a well-balanced team between the offense, defense, and special teams. Sure, some things need to be improved upon from the Bears' defense allowing big plays to Caleb Williams' inaccuracies, but the strengths of this team are what make it different from any of Eberflus' teams.

The Bears will face the Green Bay Packers, San Francisco 49ers, and Detroit Lions as their last three opponents of the season. Beating those teams in the previous two to three years wouldn't have been possible without Johnson instilling trust in the team and fan base that anything is possible.
