Tension is building as the Chicago Bears approach the final stretch of the season. We’re all about to experience both excitement and uncertainty. These three audacious forecasts for the Bears could drastically alter the team’s course and leave a lasting impression at the conclusion of the season.
Three Bold Chicago Bears Predictions
First bold prediction: Bears win and advance to the postseason.
Since predictions are supposed to be audacious, why not be sanguine? There is a great deal of hope that the Bears have a genuine chance to make the playoffs because they have just started to pick it up.
At the moment, they have a 4-8 record and are in last place in the NFC North. It’s difficult to think they could make it to the playoffs. But there might be a chance if the team was fully healthy and the schedule was more manageable. The Bears have a 53% chance of qualifying for the postseason if they win out. This weekend, the Bears take on the Detroit Lions, a team they dominated for the majority of their previous meeting. The Bears next visit the Browns, who will start their fourth quarterback; after that, they play the Cardinals, Falcons, and Packers in Green Bay.
With the help of newly acquired additions on defense, such as Tremaine Edmunds, T.J. Edwards, and Montez Sweat, this defense has turned the corner from last year. If the defense continues to play at the level they are playing at right now, and the offense begins to improve, there is a real shot at sneaking into the playoffs.
Matt Eberflus will probably stay with the Bears if the first audacious prediction comes to pass. There is no denying that Eberflus has fallen short of the Bears’ expectations as a coach. As of right now, he has a 7-22 overall record and a 1-9 record when playing NFC North teams. In his brief two years as the Bears head coach, he experienced a 14-game losing streak, zero back-to-back victories, and just one victory against +.500 teams. But Eberflus’ defense is playing at a very high level at the moment, and it doesn’t help that he has an ineffective offensive coordinator and no defensive coordinator to back him up. Making the playoffs would thrill a lot of Bears supporters, but there could be a cost.
Bears starting quarterback Justin Fields overcomes doubts to have an unbelievable late-season comeback. Fields overcomes early setbacks to record career-high stats and leads the team to a string of exciting comeback wins. This unanticipated comeback cedes Fields’ status as the starting quarterback for the Bears and ignites talk of a postseason Cinderella tale. Fields’ successful season-ending performance will prompt the Bears to discuss the possibility of returning with the pick they obtained via the Panthers.
