I'm going to go out on a huge limb here lol: there will be more than 45,000 empties for the Browns game. Thoughts?

An ugly loss vs Bengals tomorrow and we could see 15 to 20k empty seats. I think that can only be a good thing.

I really do hope it's completely empty.
With that, I do know a lot of families (with kids) that have bought up these tickets as an Xmas gift.
We have to keep in mind that with only 65K seats, and millions of fans in Chicago - most who never get to see a game, when an opportunity arises, they take it.
Even if it's the battle of futility, people will go to a Bears game just to give their kids that experience.

Only 15 k to 20 k? Honestly, I'd expect it to be worse.

Eh....it was virtually empty against a competitive Redskins team last Xmas or whenever it was. These are two atrocious franchises going head to head.
Furthermore, there was a story about how a wait list member moved up like 1,150 spots last season. I honestly believe this franchise is on the verge of being ignored. I've never seen it this bad. Fans aren't even mad enouhh to call into sports talk shows...they just don't care.

"Virtually empty"...
There were 16K unused seats. So 44K attended.
Now, just to be clear I think a message needs to be sent and we see a much higher number go unused. Like 35-45K would really send a message.
I just don't think it will happen. I think 40K+ will show (weather permitting)

I'm with Mongo. If you've got kids and want to snap up some cheap tickets just to take them to the game, have at it. I hope it's as empty as possible but would be amazed if it's under 40k.
If it does dip under that mark that's a pretty strong message.

I hope it is embarrassingly empty.
I hope they lose to the Browns, huge for draft position.
I also hope George slips and breaks his hip.
But I am pretty done with this team.

If you have kids go nuts and get to the game as cheap as possible.
I hope we see entire families bonding over booing and flipping off John Fox.

If I didn't live in New Zealand I would happily take my kids to the game and show them what two franchises they shouldn't pick when they are ready to choose. No way I am passing this virus on to the next generation.

My favorite teams
I'd like to see them trade it. It'd be nice if Pace started to accrue some picks instead of giving them away.

I think watching Trubisky vs. Kizer will be really entertaining. Send me your tickets.

Agree. 1 of my kids chose to be a Panther fan another a Patriots fan. The last seems to be leaning Bears. I hope he chooses another team honestly
