Title: S️picy Bears Take
Post by: Reacher on December 05, 2023, 10:33:46 AM
This figures to be the toughest game the rest of the way. @Cleveland will be a rock fight and @Green Bay is never easy, but if the Bears can win this Sunday, I’d say there’s a reasonable chance they can run the table and finish 9-8. Possibly even make the playoffs! Lol

We will probably see this Sunday if the Bears’ recent good play is just randomly good play against gettable opponents or if they are truly turning a corner.

If GB continues their recent good play, them resting starters in the last game against the Bears is feasible. They could have the wild card locked up.
Title: Re: S️picy Bears Take
Post by: Reacher on December 05, 2023, 10:40:36 AM
IIRC Minnesota has a tough finishing schedule and GB has a pretty easy one.

Bookmarked! So, that’s what you expect/predict. What if Fields sucks in the final remaining games? You said it’s a pretty easy schedule. You gonna make excuses if he does?
Title: Re: S️picy Bears Take
Post by: Reacher on December 05, 2023, 11:02:45 AM
I didn’t say it was an easy schedule, I said it’s gettable. “Predicting,” the Bears win out? That might be a bit strong. I’m saying it’s on the table if they win Sunday. Cleveland will not be an easy game. That will be rock fight with a team that plays great defense especially at home. The coaches will need to bring their A game there.
Title: Re: S️picy Bears Take
Post by: Reacher on December 05, 2023, 11:05:54 AM
“Easy schedule” is probably a poor choice of words for the NFL. I’m sure not a lot of people expected the Bengals to go into Jax with a backup quarterback and win. There aren’t a lot of “easy” wins in the NFL.

Because I vividly remember when I was 12 (or even younger) getting in fights with siblings and saying "he started it!"

I think it's more likely they lose out than win out (I assume they'll be dogs in every game other than AZ), but if they do win out and contend for a playoff spot and Fields looks okay I won't complain if they keep Fields another year.

Kyler has some game still.  They looked better this last weekend, albeit against a terrible team.

I'm definitely not penciling it in as a sure win or anything.  ESPN gives the Bears a 59% chance to win - that's probably a fair number.
