Da Bears - whoops, make that DUH Bears.
A couple weeks ago the Bears were 4-2 and I thought they were on the ascendant. What a difference a couple games can make. Last week's Hail Mary loss to the Commanders was bad enough, but the Bears went to Arizona today and got soundly beaten in every aspect of the game. Both starting offensive tackles are out. The center they intended to play from the beginning hasn't played at all yet. What is worse, I see them committing foolish penalties, such as the leverage penalty allowing the Cardinals a second chance at their second touchdown. They haven't won a road game on a Sunday since December of 2021.
They're 4-4 now, and assuming they can defeat the lowly Patriots next week at home (they should, but it's hard to feel any confidence), they'll be 5-4 with eight games to go: two each against the Packers, the Vikings and the Lions, the Seahawks and the Niners. Unless they start playing MUCH better football, they'll lose every one of them. That's 5-12 and almost surely another top ten pick in the draft, definitely a new coaching staff, and here we go again Bears fans.
