The Bears have gone worst to first and the accolades are beginning to roll in. 

It's been a good season for the Chicago Bears. They're going to the playoffs for the first time since 2010. Matt Nagy became the first Bears head coach since Papa Bear Halas to win 10 games in his first season. The defense, with the offseason addition of Kahlil Mack, has become one of the best, if not the best, in the league.

Five Bears — outside linebacker Khalil Mack, defensive end Akiem Hicks, safety Eddie Jackson, cornerback Kyle Fuller and returner Tarik Cohen — were named to the Jan. 27 all-star game in Orlando, Fla.

Hopefully, none of these guys will actually play in the game because they'll be getting ready for the Super Bowl the next week, but it's nice to be recognized.

It's been a fun season so far. Let's just hope it's only just begun.
