October 30, 201411 yr comment_139639 Just looking at the next 8 games...now 3-5 @GB - loss, they have our number 0-1 MIN - win, we should be able to beat Minny at home in Chicago 1-1 TB - win, we should be able to beat TB in Chicago 2-1 @DET - loss, DET on the road especially will be tough 2-2 DAL - loss, Dallas has proven to be a strong team and will run all over us 2-3 NO - loss, NO will probably have their act together. Even though they struggle on the road...we struggle at home. 2-4 DET - loss, I'd love to say we win this and split, but I think DET is a better team than us. At least right now. 2-5 @MIN - win. I think we can have Minny's number. However, we could lose this one and win against DET in Chicago. So the end result is still 3-6 We close out the 2nd half of the season 3-5, just like the first half. Overall record 6-10. We should have a top ten pick. Report

October 31, 201411 yr comment_139646 I was thinking more along the lines of: @GB - win, we get our act together during the bye and win a shootout 37-34 MIN - win, we get out first home win and get to .500 TB - win, we get our first 3 game win streak @DET - loss, DET beats us in a tight game, 24-20, now 6-6 DAL - win, Romo still hurting, Cowboys come back down to earth (they just lost to WAS), 7-6 NO - win, outdoors and cold, NO loses, 8-6 DET - win, dome team outdoors in winter, we get revenge and make Division really interesting. 9-6 @MIN - win, with season on the line we destroy MIN to go 10-6 and still miss the playoffs. We end up 10-6, no playoffs, and the 20th pick. Report

We end up 10-6, no playoffs, and the 20th pick. That would be classic Chicago Bears......win just enough to not get a good draft pick and not be in the playoffs. I so down on the Bears I just don't see them making a run at it. Even if the Offense gets their shit together there is two other phases to overcome. One good ass whooping of the GB Pack would change my mindset real quick tho.....lol Report
