Bears schedule 2024: Every opponent ranked from easiest to hardest

The Bears schedule is here! On Wednesday night, fans all over Chicagoland got the good news: this year, they can blame the Bears for the constant state of anxiety they'll be in on Thanksgiving. All 17 of the Bears games, and most of their kickoff times, were revealed last night, in a 3-minute long video that – you guessed it – made a bunch of references to Chicago. Any time you have the chance to make a Ferris Bueller's Day Off parody in 2024, you do it.

But now comes the important part: guessing. Since we know when and where these games are taking place, there's no excuse for us not to immediately turn around and rank them. Otherwise they're just 17 chaotic games rattling around inside our heads for the next four month. We need order, and only internet rankings will do. But first, here's how their schedule looks:

Week 1: vs. Tennessee Titans
