<h2 style="text-align: center">Chicago Bears 2022: News, Schedule, Roster, Score, Injury Report</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The Chicago Bears play out of the NFC North division and have a storied history dating back to the 1920s in Illinois. The franchise subsequently moved to Chicago the following year and is one of only 2 active franchises that got its start from the NFL in 1920. The other being the Arizona Cardinals.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-478292 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/chicago.jpg" alt="" width="1800" height="1200" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center">In terms of their standing within the league, the Bears have won 9 league championships and boast a Super Bowl win. Not to mention, the Chicago Bears have recorded more victories than any other franchise in the league. The principal owner of the Bears, Virginia Halas McCaskey, is the oldest owner in the NFL.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">The Chicago Bears have gone through several notable eras throughout their history, and the 1983-85 period sticks out as significant. Under the tutelage of former owner George Halas along with taskmaster ?Iron Mike? Dikta, the Bears went on to snag a chip at Super Bowl XX. Additionally, Mike Dikta is the only person in the modern iteration of the NFL to win a chip as a player and a coach.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-478294 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/beans.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1280" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center">The organization has seen several instances of transformation from the Marc Trestman era to the present day period with Matt Nagy</p>
<p style="text-align: center">The Illinois-based franchise rounded out its 2020 campaign with an 8-8 record placing second in the NFC North. Moreover, this matched their 2019 campaign and is arguably not the most desired finish considering the 5-1 start.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Logo</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The Chicago Bears have had a few iterations in their logo design spanning all the way back to their time in Decatur, Illinois, in 1920. They used A.E Staley?s logo to help promote the company. The club introduced the famed ?C? logo post-1962 after having a lengthy stint with a ?bear running with a football logo?.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-478295 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/stanleys.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="784" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center">1974 saw the white ?C? being replaced with an orange ?C? which remains the logo to this very day. Moreover, this hasn?t stopped the experimentation process with several alternate logos involving more blue bear designs.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Owner Achievements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The Bears are under the ownership of the McCaskey family, with Virginia Halas McCaskey coming in as the principal owner. Virginia, her children, and grandchildren control 80% of the team. Additionally, the Executive Chairman for Aon Corp, Patrick Ryan, owns 19.7% of the franchise.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-478300 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/problem.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="800" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center">The family has had some testing times with the ownership of the Bears, and there have been frequent rumors of a possible split. Despite the rumored friction, the Chicago Bears came in as the 8th richest NFL franchise as per Forbes in 2012, sitting with a $1.19 billion net worth.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Chicago Bears 2022 Sponsors</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The legacy franchise has tie-ups with several notable brands, including Dr. Pepper Snapple Group, Verizon, and United Airlines. Additionally, the Bears announced that PointsBet would be the organization's first Sports Betting partner. Through the Sponsorship, PointsBet will gain full usage of the Chicago Bears logo and marks.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Furthermore, the Bears were the first in the NFL to have a presenting partner with the ?Bears Football Presented by BankOne?. They also entered into an agreement with a FOX-owned station WFLD to be an official broadcaster for pre-season games.</p>
