Most Disciplined Teams Since 2018
On-Field Discipline Hasn’t Translated to Wins

Two of the teams ahead of the Bears have won Super Bowls, the L.A. Rams (2022) and New England Patriots (2018), while the Cincinnati Bengals made it to the Super Bowl in 2022.
The Green Bay Packers notched two postseason victories between 2018 and 2022, while the Indianapolis Colts and Vikings have a single playoff win apiece during that timeframe.
The Bears’ last playoff win came in 2010, when they knocked off the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Divisional Round, 35-24, before falling to Green Bay in the NFC Championship game.
Strangely enough, the Bears’ consistent discipline under then-coach Matt Nagy (2018-2021) and current coach Matt Eberflus simply hasn’t translated to a winning product.
