Don't look now but...Records & Stuff

[JoeyTourettes]

The NFL is always thought of as all teams are pretty much the same with the exception a few on the very top and a few on the very bottom. Call that NFL purgatory or what have you...but it's true. *this is not news.
Most teams will finish the season in the 7-9 win range give or take a win.
After 9 games (10 weeks) Take a look at the common record among TEN NFL teams...

4 Wins 5 Losses.
Dolphins
Chiefs
Raiders
Colts
Buccaneers
Bears
Washington
Eagles
Rams
Seahawks

Looking over those teams we can spot some that should/will fall and rise... injuries have and will play a factor going forward... One team on this list actually LEADS their division. Our Bears have BEATEN 3 of these teams.

With the remaining schedule the Bears have a chance to greatly improve.
Broncos- While their defense is scary, the Bears and Adam Gase have just shown they CAN perform against a tough defense. Peyton Manning is now OUT with a foot injury. They will face a QB in his first NFL start and also have the whole Fox playing against his old team thing/coming off back to back wins thing... Hmmm
Green Bay- Thanksgiving night COULD be a thing for Chicago. I know, I know they haven't played well against the pack for a long time, but Rodgers and that offense is showing they ARE actually from this planet and have lost 3 straight. So you're saying there's a chance?
San Fran & Washington- are very capable wins.
Vikings- The Bears should have won the earlier game and will have a chance for revenge.
Bucs & Lions- with the last two weeks of the season I'm counting on one or both of these teams to be packing it in and gearing up for either a coaching change or a final game of a rookie QB.

Can the Bears win 5 of their remaining 7 games? I think it's possible. health both for and against will be a huge factor. You bring Forte and McPhee back... and the DB's are playing great. It's going to be interesting. Go Bears!

I BELIEVE!!!!



I think they can put together a helluva stretch here, and exercise a few demons along the way.




GO BEARS!!!

If the Bears can win Sunday, which I believe they will, and somehow beat the Packers Thursday... Then I think they will run the table. That's right, I said it. I know what I'm saying and I understand the implications, an 11-5 record. I can't believe I'm thinking this, and maybe I am drinking some of the same stuff Noony does, but I believe they are getting better and better every week.

We shall see... But more likely the Bear will end up 8-8.

Just saying.

8-8 will suck but that is what I see too. Were not gonna be able to draft a top QB and with Jay playing good we could groom a rookie for a year or two.
