The Chicago Bears are sitting at 7-2 through the first nine weeks, where they're riding a four-game winning streak while sitting in first place in the NFC North ahead of a difficult final stretch of the season.The Bears are off to their best start since 2012, where they've won seven games and lost just two, with both defeats coming in games that quarterback Caleb Williams didn't finish. Chicago got off to a historic start against the Carolina Panthers, dropping 59 points in their season-opening win, and they managed to go 2-1 with Williams sidelined with a hamstring injury. While the defense had its struggles, they were still a solid unit -- and that was before the addition of defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons, which has completely overhauled the defense.There are still plenty of questions and evaluation to be done at the bye week, which comes at the halftime point of this season, but it also allows key starters time to heal up before returning to the lineup for a Week 11 matchup against the New Orleans Saints.With the bye week upon us, here are the Bears’ statistical leaders through Week 9 (via Chicago Bears):Offensive leadersPassing yards: Caleb Williams (1,546)Rushing yards: D'Andre Swift (576)Receiving yards: Luther Burden III (644)Passing touchdowns: Caleb Williams (8)Rushing touchdowns: D'Andre Swift (10)Receiving touchdowns: Luther Burden III (4)Receptions: Luther Burden III (49)Defensive leadersTackles: Dillon Thieneman (57)Sacks: Jeffery Simmons (6)Interceptions: Jaylon Johnson, T.J.
