If it's not that number, it's close. And on top of that, a very good (possibly great?) defense. That and a QB advantage is a great recipe for winning a lot of games.

I think Lawrence will bounce back in a big way this year. He played a lot of last year hurt. (I'd still take our guy)
-
Didn't realize they won one in the 90s. In my time following, I can't decide if the late 90s or mid 2010s felt more hopeless.

Consider yourself lucky. Mine was 1996. I was around in 85 but not old enough to care or have memories lol.

They definitely are if people don't think they'll be in one immediately if (when) Caleb is good.

He is

An old friend chimes in

Honestly don't care at all about the coverage of the fringe guys (blah blah blah robot yada yada...I will say it is a little bit sad watching Austin Reed's parents so into his performance when it means so little, but of course they are). I just like the behind the scenes stuff of the guys who matter. I'm a sucker for that stuff. Even like that Caleb meeting about the refs, or DJ's "I like football!" or DJ telling Terrel Bernard to shut up after he yelled at Caleb that he should go out of bounds (when he knocked him down). Plus the NFL Films stuff is just so beautifully shot. The guys on this team, for the most part, also are really likeable good guys (as far as we can know, at least), so the stuff like seeing DJ with his family is fun too. When they get into the irrelevant dudes is when I mostly tune out.

watch this if you would like to see endless praise being heaped upon a bears qb by noted fields hater shady mccoy and an ex-packer, among others.

I literally asked my Bears group chat who JT O'Sullivan could have possibly wasted time making a Brett Rypien preseason film analysis video for. Asked and answered lol
-
There's been talk of sitting him bc of the OL injuries and he gave an indefinite answer today when asked directly.

Stacey Dales said that eberflus told her Caleb is playing on Saturday FYI

Weirdly, I randomly saw this thread just now and we just started discussions a couple of days ago about running it back for this year. We have 10, would love to get 2 more and make it 12 teams. -
Given the drastic amount of change on this roster and coaching staff, I think the value of any DVOA numbers is essentially nil until they've had 4-5 weeks worth of games this season.

I'm not gonna put a number to it (mostly because every time I go through the schedule, I end up with what feels like an absurdly high number), but I think this team is better than most people realize. I think a top 10 defense and a top 15 offense is likely, with the upside of a top 5ish defense and a top 10ish offense. Those combinations make for very good teams. The most likely path to downside seems like it's the OL being abysmal. Fingers crossed that it's adequate, because I think that's all it needs to be. The other wild card would be having a tough luck run in that late season gauntlet of divisional games. The inverse is also true, though (run hot and get into a great position). If Caleb is THAT dude (the type to have a big rookie year - stroud, herbert, prescott, etc. type - something that should be realistic for a prospect of his caliber) and they steer clear of bad injury luck, I have a hard time putting a ceiling on what this team can do, given what is around him.

Think it's because those same guys are either DEs or OLBs depending on the system.
-
He also clearly isn't 145 lbs, regardless of what the website said, so double burn.
