PFM JUDGMENT
Why PFM Rates the Chicago Bears Higher
Caleb Williams gives the Chicago Bears the steadier quarterback room. That lets the offense stay on schedule without asking the rest of the team to cover constant uncertainty. The Jacksonville Jaguars are closest in defense, where the teams remain essentially even.
Chicago also brings the stronger coaching operation. Chicago adds the clearer long-term football direction. PFM still has the Chicago Bears in front.

JACKSONVILLE’S BEST PUSHBACK
Defense Is Jacksonville’s Only Close Fight
Jacksonville's defense gives the team one place to push back. The Jaguars are only 0.1 points behind Chicago in Defense, but that is where Jacksonville's case ends. Chicago still has Caleb Williams at quarterback and Ben Johnson leading the coaching staff, two advantages the Jaguars cannot match in this comparison.

How to Read This Comparison
