    So were the Commanders and the Patriots.

      Commanders actually payed well. But you guys do this every year. You don’t play anybody in the preseason, then play poorly the first 3-4 games. You’ve usually been able to steal 1-2 of those games, this time you didn’t. But you can still turn it around. Just gotta go 10-4 the rest of the way. Panthers, Giants, Titans, Raiders, Browns, Browns, Broncos, Chargers, Raiders should all be wins. Win any of Eagles, Ravens x 2, Steelers x2, and you should make it.

      Baltimore at 1-2 is in worst shape than you guys, IMO.

        Gee, you guys need to look at this differently. For Chicagoans, what you reference as the "pre-season", we like to consider the playoffs. And BTW, Chicago won - 4 and 0! This "season" thing you reference is an interesting training program for the real playoffs which will commence late next summer. And BTW, if the Bears beat Green Bay, we consider that all that is required to be considered a winning season. We look at the world through a lens of necessity. BTW, the Chicago Winless Sox are on a record breaking season! Go Sucks Sox.

          Lord, the Sox were sad this year, weren't they? I remember working up in the region in 2005 when they went to the Series. Ot was exciting.

            This seems premature, with Andy coming off a stellar performance. Hubris.

              I forgot to mention that a significant portion of folks here are very excited to watch our former QB take the Steelers to a 17 and 0 season as this would solidify the view that the Bears have the worst coaching/management in the league.

                Yeah, I was wondering if I should bring that up…

                  That would be interesting indeed. However, the Steelers didn’t do so well with Trubisky, another Bears product.

                      Doug Flutie was another Bears reject who made good. Chicagoans expect Fields to surpass Tom Brady in Superbowl wins - probably 7 or 8 in a row.

                        I must have never opened this thread because it opened to the first post.

                        Not noticing the date, I thought ‘how TF does LD know the Steelers path to the playoffs already?’

                              Certainly, he was undervalued by the Bears. They made fun of him.
