They weren’t sure whether to go all in or all out and now look to be all out unless Foles is wonderful somehow. I actually think the Bears have a decent shot at winning the division this year. Yeah, Trubisky is an all-out bust, but that defense is still nothing to sneeze at. They can get the Bears 7 or 8 wins on their own. Foles could be enough to get them a few wins, and even with Trubisky, they might be able to pull out 10 or 11 wins this year. The Vikings have a lot of young guys and this isn't a good year to go in with a big crop of rookies. It's a reload season for us, and I don't see us doing much. The Packers front office just declared themselves in a period of transition with the draft they had. The amount of luck they had to go 13-3 last year is more than likely not going to happen again. It's between the Bears and Packers for the division this year, and if Rodgers flakes out with the new QB situation, it wouldn't surprise me at all to see that team melt down quite a bit. They have a brutal schedule too. The Lions? They have a lot of talent on that team - far more than last year's record would indicate. My guess is that the team will probably give up on Matt Patricia this year because he isn't much of a people person. You never know though. Maybe he can finally put it together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Mitsubishi or Foles (behind that OL especially) gets them to more than a .500 record I'd be shocked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who needs an OL when you can run the 10 TE offense? Who is staying in? Who is running a route? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. I think we are both due for some regression from last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if I needed a OT, I’d still probably trade back some spots and get one. I think a top OT provides a more limited return on the investment compared to several other positions.

RIP your career real quick ...these type of takes kill me every. single. time. Who would want to go to a franchise that hasn't had "the guy" at the QB position since the 90s/early 00's and be the guy to put them back on the map? These guys definitely don't have a competitive bone in their body nor want to be the guy to turn a franchise around I'm sure... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seemed like the Bears underachieved last year. Compared to the previous season they sure did. I just see the Packers and Vikings as being two teams in transition, and that could hurt us both.
