Oh I’m not arguing that it was an unfair game. They definitely deserved the win. There were no crazy bad calls from the refs, and really no big missed calls. I think it’s more one of those things where if you were just tuning in for a second and saw the score with 4 minutes left in the game, Bears fans were thinking “hey we might actually win” and lions fans were like “12 point game this late in the fourth, it doesn’t look good”. It’s 100% the Bears coaching that lost us that game. Lions are too good a team to play that safe against

I am immensely sad about the lions game and I think even most lions fans would agree that the Bears should have won that game. Fields was playing mistake-free football until he was put into a position that ultimately led to the fumble.
Justin Fields has not taken this team to the Super Bowl. Hurts also has some pretty great passing performances under his belt, while Fields has only started to improve his passing numbers this year. Hurts also has a top OL and two top WRs as well as a stacked defense that keeps them in games.
Definitely not the best game of the year, but Bears at Commanders on the day Dick Butkus passed away was a much better game than a lot of people expected it to be. I’ll always remember it as the “Dick Butkus game” where everything just seemed to go right for us. It seemed fitting
Howell had first round potential back in college, I was honestly surprised to see him drop so far. He’s second in the league in passing yards right now and that’s with a trash OL. He is not a bad QB at all
Patriots Commanders Titans Rams Cardinals Panthers are all very winnable. I feel like if you put us up against those teams rn we have a good chance at winning. Obviously a lot can change in an offseason, and even with winnable games we drop some, but those are the ones I really would feel good about.
In division, I think our best chance is to split. Lions will continue to get good but we play them close, same with the Vikings. Packers have owned us for years but they aren’t the team they were.
Jags, 49ers, Texans, Colts and Seahawks will be tough and most likely losses. Niners are gonna be a powerhouse even after they lose some players to FA, Jax is looking like a great team, Houston and Indy both have VERY promising young QBs, and the Seahawks are not a bad team by any means. We probably squeak out a win or two here.
I think absolute best case scenario is we go 10-7, but we said the same type of stuff this last offseason and look where our team is now lol
