124 Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 A lot of people around the NFL, mostly beat writers, are starting to claim that they believe the Bears have a very good shot at going undeffeated this season. Do any of you think it'll happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DireJet38 Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 No, it will not happen. Rex Grossman just started his 5th game in a row, which was a record for him. I think he will get hurt eventually. Minn. or NE will beat them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gainzo Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 A lot of people around the NFL, mostly beat writers, are starting to claim that they believe the Bears have a very good shot at going undeffeated this season. Do any of you think it'll happen? Nope. I'm thinking 14-2 or 13-3. Remember 2001? They went 13-3 and then got beat at home by the Eagles in the playoffs. The NFC North sucks and their schedule is beyond easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Nope. I'm thinking 14-2 or 13-3. Remember 2001? They went 13-3 and then got beat at home by the Eagles in the playoffs. The NFC North sucks and their schedule is beyond easy. The Bears in 2001 were coached by Dick Jauron, and their QB was Jim Miller. OK, Grossman isn't THAT much better than Jim Miller, but Lovie Smith is a HUGE improvement on Dick Jauron. Add that to a defense reminiscent of 1985, AND as you said "their schedule is beyond easy", I see 15-1 or 16-0 as a REAL possibility for the Bears. What other team in the NFC challenges them?

They will not keep putting up 30-40 points a game. I think when they hit the road against the Giants/Jets/Pats they may hit some bumps in the road. They beat the Pack easy on the road, but had a lot of trouble with the Vikes. How will they do at the Meadowlands and Gillette? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da Bears have a 3 week road trip. I must say that they should be pretty beat up by the time they arrive in Foxboro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's ever a game to be worried about Pennington's health, it's that one. Imagine Brian Urlacher & Lance Briggs coming at Pennington from the blind side?

JetCane Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Hey JC, does your hatred of the patsies overtake your hatred of the Fish? Sounds like they are now #1 Nope, not even close, but i have to come to despise Belichick for the complete scumbag he is as a person. I'm not real keen on Putz fans; they are approaching Philly fans as the most bizarre ever. My inlaws are from Mass, so i have a pretty good idea about the arrogance of Mass people, having spent time up there. Obnoxiousness runs rampant up there, along with the phony accents. If we only win two games all season, every season, I'd want them to be against the Mammals. That's where the real rivalry is at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there such a thing as a "rivalry" between two bottom-feeding teams in the NFL? Kinda reminds me of how Army-Navy is today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BwanaZulia Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 No. Let downs are just too easy in any given week. NYJ, NE or NYG could beat them but DAMN they do have an easy schedule. BZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the bears conceding the game in the 3rd quarter to get prepared for the pats game the following week. dw10, thanks for posting clinic you put on for us re: homerism, I really think i'm gettin it downpat;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serphnx Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 They really do have an extremely easy schedule, the 3 road games in a row are the only challenge, and it's quite possible that they win all 3. If I'm Lovie, I tell them to treat those 3 games like the playoffs in order to get ready for the real thing. I still think they'll probably lose in the playoffs or the Super Bowl though.
