Since 1990, we have been ranked in the top 10 in scoring 5 times. A couple of those times are skewed because we had defenses or special teams that scored alot of points. The stinker is that we've been below the top 20 in scoring 17 times, with 9 of those being in the bottom 5. That is pathetic. You can praise defense all you want, and call it Bear Football, but you can't win unless you score points. Even the teams known for their offense still had decent defenses that carried them to titles. The last 2 times we were in the Super Bowl, we were 2nd in scoring.

In the last 30 years, we had a couple of average OCs and a bunch of crap. Once again, instead of doing whatever possible to get a good OC, we get the same old same old. I hope Lazor proves me wrong, but he has a crappy track record as an OC.

My favorite teams
  1. Chicago Bears
we're so fucked..

And the worst part, it's another year that Packers fans can say, "The Bears still suck" and it's true. Because we're a joke of a franchise. And our hated rival is one of the best of all-time.

And, the last HOF QB the bears had was 70 years ago, so, we could make a century??

Thats a looooong story, so cozy up to the fireplace.....

You see, there was a man with a vision to create a national football league, but he was also a skinflint that "threw around nickels like manhole covers". and then he taught his offspring to treat the team the same way. Unfortunately, the entire league reveres this awful man instead of recognizing him for what he was...a fucking cheapskate that fucked over a city for freebees and a fanbase that craves success to make himself wealthy....

Personnel upgrades at tight end and o line are sure to happen

Top defense

A running back that can be really good with an improved o line

A schedule that won’t be toughest in the NFL

This team finished 8-8 despite having the hardest schedule in the league. They were a couple plays away from being 9-7 or 10-6.

12-4 a year ago with an average schedule and the same core of players.

Another year of experience for Mitch who has not reached his prime.

Meanwhile another year older for Rodgers who is well beyond his prime and showing signs of a decline.

Despite the brutal schedule, the Bears still managed to go 4-2 in the division which is a good sign for ongoing contention in the North.

If you really feel that way then why are you a fan of the Chicago Bears? There wouldn't be an NFL if it wasn't for pioneers like George Halas.
