  "textContent": "<p>SAN FRANCISCO — Several key players for <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https://chicago.suntimes.com/bears\" target=\"_blank\" >the Bears</a> have been in the Bay Area this week to play in the Pro Bowl or appear at Radio Row, and being in such proximity to Super Bowl LX illustrated perfectly how much higher their expectations should be next season.</p><p>All of them agree this season was a sensational accomplishment as the team won its first playoff game in 15 years, but none were content as the Seahawks and Patriots pressed on toward the real goal of winning a championship Sunday.</p><p>“What we did this year is over with,” running back <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https://chicago.suntimes.com/bears/2026/01/02/bears-rb-dandre-swift-adapted-to-new-scheme-hard-coaching-and-is-delivering-best-season-of-career\" >D’Andre Swift</a> told the Sun-Times on Thursday. “We understand what it looks like to get to that point, but we need to take it up a notch to try to surpass that and ultimately not be talking to you right now and be at practice instead.”</p><p>Tight end Colston Loveland added, “It makes you sick. But we didn’t get it done. It hurts to know we could’ve been here.”</p><p>Promoting Dairy Queen (Swift) and pitching Charmin toilet paper (Loveland) are decent side jobs, but they’d rather be fighting for the Lombardi Trophy.</p><p>The Bears got closer than they’d been in a long time, losing to the Rams in overtime in the divisional round and missing out on a chance to face the Seahawks in the NFC Championship Game. That’s good, but it needs to be merely the first step.</p><p>They’ll be going into Year 5 of general manager Ryan Poles’ tenure next season, and more importantly, the third season of quarterback Caleb Williams’ rookie contract. If Williams keeps improving and earns a pricey contract extension, it’ll get significantly more difficult to build around him.</p><p>The clock is ticking. And the standards are higher. Repeating this season’s success, which will be difficult in itself, won’t be celebrated again.</p><p>“Guys already implicitly know it,” center Drew Dalman said. “I wouldn’t describe the mood of myself and some of the other guys as super celebratory. You want to win the whole thing.</p><p>“You have a little bit of satisfaction in that you took a step in the right direction and you’re building things the right way. You have evidence that the process works, so that’s encouraging. But results-wise, you’re not walking around super happy about having lost.”</p><p>The more experienced Bears also see clearly what coach Ben Johnson pointed out all season: The Bears’ resilience in high-pressure situations was a strength, but the seven victories they pulled out after trailing in the final two minutes didn’t establish a viable template going forward.</p><p>The Bears had the third-worst point differential among playoff teams this season at plus-26, a razor-thin margin for an 11-6 team. They needed onsides kicks, blocked field goals and big kick returns just to have a chance for some of those late escapes.</p><p>“It’ll be very hard to duplicate a season like we had with all the comeback wins, which we should stay out of,” wide receiver DJ Moore said. “It’ll be a challenge to get back to where we were, let alone go farther.”</p><p>Moore will be going into his ninth season, and this was the first time he played for a team with a winning record. Safety Kevin Byard, a pending free agent who hopes to return, is going into Year 11 looking for his first championship. Left guard Joe Thuney is the oldest starter on the roster at 33, and with four Super Bowl rings already, that’s the only thing that matters to him.</p><p>Time is running short for all of them as they hope the Bears make a leap next season.</p><p>“Guys always talk about this championship window,” Byard said. “We have it here.”</p><p>Theoretically, that’s possible. But it’ll require a major step forward.</p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><bsp-list-loadmore class=\"PageListH\" data-module data-hide-authors=\"true\" data-hide-categories=\"true\" data-hide-dates=\"true\" data-show-loadmore=\"true\" ><a class=\"AnchorLink\" id=\"list-bc0001\" name=\"list-bc0001\"></a><div class=\"PageList-header\" > <div class=\"PageList-header-title-wrap\" > <div class=\"PageList-header-title\"> <a class=\"\" href=\"https://chicago.suntimes.com/bears\" target=\"{borderColor=#dfdfdf, pageNumber=1, inverseColors=false, footerBgColor=#000000, bodyFont=font-3, showListNumbers=false, imagePositionHorizontal=null, rteBodyFont=font-3, headerBottomBorderColor=#111010, titleUrl=https://chicago.suntimes.com/bears, subTitle=null, stickyHeader=true, items=[{type=Image, anchorId=promo-6b0000, description=[{items=[Explosive deep threats are a must for championship-caliber teansm and the Bears hope Rome Odunze and DJ Moore bring that type of firepower to their offense next season.]}], authors=[{jobTitle=[{items=[Chicago Bears reporter]}], ampLink=null, _styledTemplate=null, _template=/author/byline/AuthorByline.hbs, authorPageUrl=https://chicago.suntimes.com/authors/jason-lieser, media=[{image={src=https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/db/45/4fa7d0e60b81cf16ace05e7c41e9/f5kj4hj-400x400-0.jpg, width=512, height=512}, narrowImage={src=https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/db/45/4fa7d0e60b81cf16ace05e7c41e9/f5kj4hj-400x400-0.jpg, width=512, height=512}, ampLink=null, _styledTemplate=null, _template=/image/Image.hbs, alt=Headshot of Chicago Bears reporter Jason Lieser}], bio=[{items=[Jason Lieser covers the Chicago Bears for the Chicago Sun-Times.]}], name=[{items=[Jason Lieser]}]}], url=https://chicago.suntimes.com/bears/2026/02/05/super-bowl-lx-features-elite-wide-receivers-in-seahawks-jaxon-smith-njigba-patriots-stefan-diggs, publishDate=February 05, 2026 04:59 PM, _styledTemplate=null, title=Super Bowl LX features elite wide receivers in Seahawks' Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Patriots' Stefon Diggs, imageAlignment=null, isFeatured=false, media=[{alt=Super Bowl Football, ampLink=null, _styledTemplate=null, _template=/image/Image.hbs, image={src=https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/d0/e9/6fb5922b4b9d84ac1a49da934827/ap26034111732866.jpg, width=3936, height=2632}, narrowImage={src=https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/d0/e9/6fb5922b4b9d84ac1a49da934827/ap26034111732866.jpg, width=3936, height=2632}}], timestamp=1770332380000, target=null, primaryMediaType=null, categoryUrl=https://chicago.suntimes.com/bears, wordCount=848, ampLink=null, audio=[], audioDuration=null, _template=/page/promo/PagePromo.hbs, category=[{items=[Bears]}]}, {publishDate=February 05, 2026 10:45 AM, type=Image, timestamp=1770309954000, title=Mike Tirico, set to call his first Super Bowl, is still in awe of Rams-Bears playoff game, miracle TD, wordCount=902, _styledTemplate=null, category=[{items=[Sports Media]}], imageAlignment=null, isFeatured=false, media=[{image={src=https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/d1/47/b8b1470245658251c923f003b9eb/nup-199039-00069.jpg, width=3000, height=2000}, narrowImage={src=https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/d1/47/b8b1470245658251c923f003b9eb/nup-199039-00069.jpg, width=3000, height=2000}, alt=NBC Sports - Events - Season 2022, ampLink=null, _styledTemplate=null, _template=/image/Image.hbs}], url=https://chicago.suntimes.com/sports-media/2026/02/05/mike-tirico-super-bowl-lx-rams-bears-caleb-williams-cole-kmet-nbc-olympics, authors=[{authorPageUrl=https://chicago.suntimes.com/authors/jeff-agrest, bio=[{items=[Jeff Agrest is deputy sports editor at the Chicago Sun-Times.]}], name=[{items=[Jeff Agrest]}], ampLink=null, _styledTemplate=null, _template=/author/byline/AuthorByline.hbs, jobTitle=[{items=[Deputy sports editor]}], media=[{alt=11-20-stewart-agrest-2-0.jpg, ampLink=null, _styledTemplate=null, _template=/image/Image.hbs, image={src=https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/aa/7e/6765027c315652b7137576f04898/11-20-stewart-agrest-2-0.jpg, width=512, height=512}, narrowImage={src=https://cst.brightspotcdn.com/aa/7e/6765027c315652b7137576f04898/11-20-stewart-agrest-2-0.jpg, width=512, height=512}}]}], target=null, primaryMediaType=null, anchorId=promo-6c0000, ampLink=null, categoryUrl=https://chicago.suntimes.com/sports-media, audio=[], description=[{items=[“The whole moment just felt really, really vibrant to me,” Tirico said. “That was an all-time great moment.
