Taking on the NFC West likely won't help the Bears in wild-card tiebreakers, and last year's defensive surge coincided with playing four of the NFL's worst offenses."
We still need a C and edge rusher, but aside from that, what else can we complain about? The roster, aside from those two holes, is about as complete as its ever been.
I'm not sure how highly anyone rates the Bears this coming year.
I'm excited about having a franchise QB and stud WRs and a modern offense, and a continue building towards a great team. I'm not sure how many people expect that to all come together this year though. I don't expect them to make the playoffs this year.
The skepticism from being burned a hundred times by this stupid organization is completely understandable, but you and Fleet talked me into believing that a cerebral QB, with a team friendly playstyle, is a difference maker (unlike Fields). So I'm sorry, but going 8-9 with this roster would probably disprove your initial hypothesis.
