In the city of Chicago, the miracles never stop.

Three days ago, the Northern Lights shone brightly in the city's night sky in an unusual event that only occurs here.

Ruth Chepngetich broke the Chicago Marathon world record by two minutes on Sunday, breaking the 2:10 mark with a final time of 2:09:56.

And most shocking to nihilists, the Chicago Bears may have a modern NFL offense with a quarterback who is proving to be unbreakable.

Whenever you think something can't be done, Chicago has a miracle or two up its sleeve.

“I think I've seen the whole process well the last few games we've had,” Bears quarterback Caleb Williams said.

After a four-touchdown day and a 35-16 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Bears passed a test on Sunday.

The team enters the bye week at 4-2, giving it a much-needed break, but the biggest question still remains: Are these Bears good enough to compete in a talented NFC North?

After scoring 30 points for the second straight week and crushing another offense, this time with second-string defenders, the Chicago Bears have at least earned the benefit of the doubt.

They held together with the NFC North for six weeks. The Bears are ready to face the Vikings, Packers and Lions after having dates with Arizona and Washington following their week-long break.

“We still have a lot to improve on, but for the first six games I think we're in a good position,” Bears head coach Matt Eberflus said. “We need to get our minds, our bodies, and everything else in order.”

It's easy to take a look at the 1-5 Jacksonville Jaguars and just watch them.

They struggle, they have poor pass defense and make too many mistakes to consistently win football games. That was evident as the Jaguars committed two turnovers and a total of eight penalties for 43 yards.

But the Bears had to win this game with second-string defensive players in their secondary after Jaquan Brisker and Tyrique Stevenson were sidelined before the game and Kyler Gordon left the game with a hamstring injury.

The Bears also had to win this game with an emergency long snapper when Cole Kmet subbed in for Scott Daly. Long snappers, as Daly told me earlier this year, are better off remaining incognito.

“If people still think Patrick Scales is still crazy, then that’s probably the highest compliment I can get,” Daly told me.

Daly, who left the game with a knee injury and quickly exited, put the spotlight on Kmet, where botched long snaps can easily lead to points for the other team.

What's more, the Bears not only won, but they won convincingly. The momentum is all theirs as they head into a week off where the secondary can get healthy and prepare for the Washington Commanders and rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels.

Remember when Daniels torched the Bengals a few weeks ago and had everyone asking if the Bears picked the wrong quarterback? I do. That argument now seems moot after Williams' great Sunday.

The Rook completed 23 of his 29 passes for a 79.3 completion percentage for 226 yards with four passing touchdowns, the most of his career. That corresponds to a passer rating of 124.4.

Williams also became the first player in the Common Draft era to win four of his first six career starts. He is the first Bears rookie to have a passing touchdown in four consecutive games since Kyle Orton did it in 2005, and he was the first Bears rookie since Cade McNown in 1999 to throw at least three touchdown passes in pitched in a single game.

The Bears, who couldn't keep Mitchell Trubisky or Justin Fields working long-term, have found the one quarterback who can't be hindered by the QB curse. It also leads to actual sustained offensive success.

According to Stathead, which runs the website Pro Football Reference, the 2024 Bears have scored five offensive touchdowns in consecutive games for the first time since…1956. That year, Ed Brown was the Bears' quarterback and Paddy Driscoll was the Bears' head coach.

After all the good Williams did on Sunday, the first thing he did was think about what could have been. That was his interception on a pass he threw to DJ Moore instead of shooting it in.

“I was a little mad at myself just because that's a pass that I don't want to miss, that you don't want to miss and do something like that,” Williams said. “Afterwards I was a bit angry. I think it was important to reinvent myself, but with that in mind, this can’t happen again and let’s go out here and score.”

After that, Williams took care of business. He now trails a Bears rookie quarterback for second all-time with nine touchdown passes.

Of course, the pressure was on the offense to keep the points flowing since the defensive players were missing. Jaquan Brisker, Tyrique Stevenson and Terrel Smith were sidelined and Kyler Gordon left in the second half with a hamstring injury.

The depleted secondary just got thinner. You can say anything about the Jaguars, but an offense featuring Trevor Lawrence, Christian Kirk, Trevor Etienne, Brian Thomas Jr. and Evan Engram is a threat if you have the right play in mind. Elijah Hicks, Josh Blackwell and Jaylon Jones deserve great recognition for their plays.

“Jaylon Jones did a good job. Elijah Hicks has done a good job there and that’s the partnership they have with their coaches,” Eberflus said. “The coaches got them ready to play. We're always ready when it comes to depth, and that's a good job coaching these guys, but also a really good job when you're playing.”

This was a game that could have quickly gone the other way if the Bears weren't careful. Instead, they took care of the business while showing growth.

This puts the Bears in a great position heading into the bye week to recover and prepare to challenge the NFC North in the second half of the season. It's worth remembering in passing that the Bears had trouble knocking off teams like the Panthers, Rams and Jaguars last year. That's what they're doing so far this season.

After all, it was this Bears government that said it planned to take the North and never give it back.

This Bears team is capable of doing just that. And who knows what will happen, after all, the miracles never stop in Chicago.

“As long as everything fits together and the special teams play well, we have a chance,” Bears receiver Keenan Allen said.
