Their D is Top Drawer and will keep them in every game..Philly is unknown factor. So, that means to me they could win at Detroit, Minny and a shot at the Jets, making 10 a possibility

Everyone remembers game one with Detroit..this isn't the same team..Martz system doesn't just take a few trining camps to catch on..the deeper they go this season, the better it will be

Webb, right tackle, is a 7th round rookie. That alone should let you know how much work had to be done

cutler has been hittin slants and passes that were neverrr there before. the way he has been taking off has been awesome too b.c. he used to either a. force it or b. just stand there pouting adn then get sacked. The defense is just so good tho right now its great

Agree with you on Martz....if Cutler could just learn to not try to win the game and force things everytime, they could be a lot better.

Wasn't the 28th when the season started

Playoff teams, Minny (2), G Bay(2), Dallas, Jets, and Philly and near miss NE

Teams change and the Bears have come a long way, to my surprise

The Bears schedule will be getting tough, but this team is starting to click. Next week vs the Eagles is a huge game. If they win next week, I think the playoffs are possible.

People knocking the Bears, but you play what you are scheduled.

I see them going 3-3 to finish at 10-6 but that still might not make playoffs. But then the good thing about that is bye bye Angelo and Lovie. 4 straight years no playoffs Phillips would have to fire them. Hello Cowher.
