The 1995 Chicago Bears season was their 76th regular season completed in the National Football League (NFL). The Bears recorded their second straight 9–7 record under head coach Dave Wannstedt, but failed to make the playoffs due to a tiebreaker loss to the Atlanta Falcons. The Bears started the 1995 NFL season as one of the hottest teams with a 6–2 record halfway through the season; however, a stunning 37–34 overtime home loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers triggered a three-game losing streak as part of losing five out of their next six games and falling to a disappointing 7–7 record, essentially eliminating themselves from playoff contention.
