Where Are the Two Teams Standing Going Into Week 6?
The Bears hired Ben Johnson as head coach this season to help former No. 1 overall pick Williams reach his full potential. However, the season got off to a rocky start with back-to-back losses.
Chicago quickly bounced back to a 2-2 record, thanks to a pair of hard-fought victories. After a dominant win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 3, the Bears faced a tougher challenge against the Las Vegas Raiders. A thrilling game-winning drive in the fourth quarter, capped with a touchdown and a blocked field goal, gave Chicago the edge and momentum heading into their bye week.
Now refreshed and rejuvenated, the Bears will look to make it three straight wins as they prepare to take on the Commanders on Monday night.
Meanwhile, the Commanders started the season 1-1 under Daniels. They handled the Las Vegas Raiders without him in Week 3 with Marcus Mariota under center, but fell to the Atlanta Falcons 34-27 in Week 4, dropping their record to 2-2.
Daniels returned from the knee injury in Week 5 and immediately made an impact, leading Washington to a decisive 27-10 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers. His presence reinvigorated the team and highlighted the difference a healthy starting QB can make.
With the Bears aiming to climb above .500 and the Commanders seeking to solidify their winning record, Monday Night Football promises an exciting matchup between two young quarterbacks eager to make their mark on the 2025 season. Williams currently ranks 15th in PFSN’s QB Impact metric, while Daniels, last year’s Offensive Rookie of the Year, sits at 27th.
