Chicago Bears 2007 Season Stats Breakdown

The Chicago Bears stats totals from 2007 prove that the Curse of the Super Bowl Losers lives on. They finished the season with a 7-9 overall record and allowed the Packers to gain control of the Frozen North in a year when they were supposed to be the class of the whole NFC.

On offense the Bears did better through the air than on the ground, though they were not helped by a quarterback situation that was less than ideal. Chicago ended the regular season with 3,362 passing yards, good for exactly 15th in the league. They were no slackers through the air, despite all the bad press. On the ground they only managed to record 1,330 total yards (30th in the league) and had the worst yards per carry average in the NFL (3.1). It seems like the bad running game didn’t help the passing game much, or vise versa.

Either way, the offense can always try to blame the defense for not giving the team much to work with. Despite being one of the best defensive units in the NFL just a year ago, the Bears allowed 3,708 total passing yards (27th in the league) and 1,967 passing yards on the year (24th).
