YOUR TEAM, YOUR HISTORY

1920 Decatur Staleys; 1921 Chicago Staleys; 1922-present Chicago Bears

The Chicago Bears, one of two charter members of the NFL still in existence, have a legendary history.  Almost all of the successes on and off the field for the Bears from its beginnings through 1983 can be attributed to George "Papa Bear" Halas.  The Bears boast the most members who have earned election to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.  Chicago has won nine NFL championships.
