The 1950 Chicago Bears season was their 31st regular season and 10th postseason completed in the National Football League. The club posted a 9-3 record under head coach George Halas forcing a tie for first in the National Conference with the Los Angeles Rams, but the team finished in second place because the Bears lost to the Rams in the NFL's National Conference one-game playoff allowing the Rams to move on to the NFL Championship Game.
