Title: Bears 2021 prediction thread
Post by: Reacher on August 25, 2021, 02:50:02 PM
I think best case scenario is probably 9-8. I think more likely is 7-10.

But I’ll go on record with 8-9.

It’s possible the Bears are better/worse than any of this, which probably means they’ll be worse.

You're trying to parody a Tempo post. I like it.

You guys seem to think I’m in the business of guarantees. I’ve never really guaranteed my “takes.” I consider the information at hand and give my opinion (and try to project the future). That’s all I’ve ever done. I’m right a lot more than I’m wrong. Unfortunately.

If they go 9-8, I will be ecstatic.

As soon as I hit 'send', I thought about how much of an idiot I was.

I have to admit I read his post and just started laughing out loud because I knew what was coming.

Nobody cares. Wait, I shouldn’t say that.

I don’t care. I’ll speak for myself.

We all know the Bears will suck. It’s not a huge revelation.

A large handful of you seem to care. A lot.

5 wins.

The cynical me thinks 6-7, but I know I have a built-in bias towards the Bears sucking so I said 8.

I expect some improvement from the offense, for a multitude of reasons; but primarily a play-making quarterback. Assuming Fields plays, which I think he will game 5 at the latest.

I think Sean Desai is a promising young coordinator. If the defense can make one last hurrah this team could be ok. I don’t see it happening though.

6 wins at best. They'll dick around with Dalton for like 4 weeks then turn to Fields. Not that it matters since Matt Nagy is the biggest fraud in the NFL and the offense will suck ass again regardless of who's quarterbacking.

Predict the score for Sunday’s game.

Rams 30
Bears 16

I could be under shooting it.

Who remembers mine and Spark’s conversation about who’s in a better position for a quick turnaround? Bears or Rams?

I don’t.  Must’ve been years ago, I guess?  They haven’t had much to “turn around” in recent years.

It was 2019 when the Rams and Bears were both toiling around .500 after super high expectations for both franchises. It was a fairly lengthy conversation, but not shocked you don’t remember it.

My recollection says that conversation probably took place when the Rams, coming off a SB were 6-5 and had just been beaten 45-6 at home the previous game.

One thing I remember specifically  was pointing out the Rams were missing 2-3 starters on their offensive line. I’m guessing there was some comparison to the Bears’ O line there.

Remember when the Bears had Raheem Mostert and Mike Davis and Nagy/Pace apparently thought they were both trash?

I’m sure you applied your standards evenly.

The Rams’ success isn’t even that impressive given they have a great defense.

The Rams’ defense in 2019 ranked 17th in total team defense. So I’d say they were average to slightly below average at that time.
