1995 Chicago Bears season


The 1995 Chicago Bears season was the franchise’s 76th regular season in the National Football League. The Bears finished with a 9–7 record for the second consecutive year under head coach Dave Wannstedt, but failed to qualify for the playoffs due to a tiebreaker loss to the Atlanta Falcons.
Chicago began the season strong, starting 6–2 at the halfway point. However, a 37–34 overtime home loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, their first home defeat to Pittsburgh and ended a 10-game home winning streak against them, triggered a three-game losing streak. The Bears went on to lose five of their next six games, falling to 7–7 and effectively eliminating themselves from postseason contention.
