Bears Season Prediction

The 2024 Bears schedule has been released.  As shown above, there are a few things of note:

Week 6:  play in London;  not sure what I'll do if the game's not over by the time we head for church

Week 7: BYE WEEK;  so early in the season!  ICK

Week 11: first game against a divisional foe;  sure will make for a fun final third of the season

Week 13: play on Thanksgiving

While I am a big football fan, I am not a big football statistics guy.  Nor am I a sports guru.  Or a prophet.  Or a fortune teller.

That said, INJURIES ASIDE, I think the Bears can easily win 8 this season.  9-10 is a definite possibility.  11 would seem a little unrealistic.

I think they'll go 3-3 in the division.

They must win Carolina, New England, Arizona, Washington, Tennessee.  That would take them to 8-3.

Losses against San Fran, Houston & the Rams would make 8-6.

Picking-up a win against Indy would be great.  That would be 9-6.

A win against either Seattle or Jacksonville would be #10.

Again, my 10-7 prediction assumes the major players (especially on a potentially EXPLOSIVE offense) stay healthy.

Any big losses on The O, and I'm saying a 10-7 season could easily flip to 7-10.

BEAR DOWN!!

Grace & Peace & Love to you all -
