I think the only way you can get them to 8-9 is if they win every single 50/50-ish game.
That would entail winning 3 out of 4 of Lions/Vikings (we’ll see), a sweep of the New Jersey trips (meh, doubt it) and a clean sweep of the average/mediocre teams like the 9ers, Dolphins, Falcons, Eagles and Commanders (not gonna happen).
If even 2 of those teams I listed beat the Bears, it will take multiple wins against teams like the Packers, Cowboys and Patriots to get to 8 wins. It ain’t gonna happen.
Adam Hoge, who had the Bears at 8-9, had to revise his prediction as they went game by game in last weekend’s CHGO podcast because he realized how damn near impossible it is.
Unless Fields plays like NFC Mahomes, this is a 6-win team. I just think there’s a ceiling there this year with this talent.
