Record Prediction and Why

9-7.

Rex, I mean mitch starts the season off only to have Orton, I mean foles, come in to finish it.

We make the playoffs as a wildcard, and foles throws the game away for us.

14-2.

Because according to the other thread, Madden predicted it. Everything that happens in Madden is the truth.

That is a Bears Super Bowl... 9-7 and a sniff at a wild card

If nobody is injured and Foles starts, 12-4. If Trubs starts 10-6 or 9-7

It’s a tough schedule for us. Only 4 games I see DEFINITELY winning. We just don’t have weapons on offense. Allen Robinson is the only legit offensive weapon. We also have no depth on defense. With Goldman out we could be one injury from the D falling apart. That’s on Pace. He’s left this team with holes all over and sitting on some bad contracts.

We finish 7-9/8-8 at best. Pace needs to be fired. I assume a new GM will fire Nagy as well.

I predict 10-6 or better. Coaching change is the biggest reason but I liked the Ifedi pickup with move to G and Daniels now looking the part at the other side. Viable TEs are huge in this O. Better speed WRs. I always thought Gabriel was over rated. Foles brings stability though not special. Hicks' return and Mack back with Quinn and Jackson back where he belongs should have the D looking more like 2018 than 2019. I still think Mack had a lingering ding all year that they kept to themselves.

“I wasn’t good enough at all. Understanding that, there are different intangibles that came with it. I don’t make any excuses. I just rise to the occasion and I am getting ready for this one. It’s going to be a fun one, man, I can’t wait.

If the defense is top 5 and stays healthy, 7 - 9 as a best case scenario

Realistically, 6-10 or lower given injures or low morale in the defense as the offense still looks lost against average to good NFL defenses.

Mitch or Foles makes little difference to me as I suspect Nagy is a fraud and NFL defenses know how to scheme him into frustration.

5-7 wins is where I’m leaning.

5-7 wins is where I’m leaning.

To be honest I could see that.

I could also see a 11-12 win season.

This is one of the most unsure of bears sqauds I could remember in my lifetime. Are they good? Are they bad? No idea. There is a ton of young talent that has yet to make their mark. There are a ton of questionmarks, there is also a ton of excellent players.

It's why my guess is 9 wins, with both qb's playing, but it wouldn't shock me if they finish with as little as 5 if injuries hit. If somehow mitch/foles plays like mitch did in 2018(or better) this team goes to 10+ wins, I'm not expecting it tho, but hell...wouldn't that be nice?
