The 1933 Chicago Bears season was their 14th regular season and 2nd postseason completed in the National Football League. The club posted a 10-2-1 record in the first year of George Halas's second tenure. The Bears started the season on fire, winning their first six games while allowing only 33 points. In the middle of the season, the team struggled on the road, losing to Boston and New York and eking out a tie against the new Philadelphia Eagles franchise. After that, however, the Bears regained their winning ways, finishing the regular season with four consecutive wins, including two against Portsmouth, their foe in the 1932 championship game. The team won the newly established Western Division by 3½ games and went to the first ever NFL championship game on a hot streak.
