This sucks for the Bears

[Guiness]

Washington *clears throat*

And Winston's not lighting it up in Tampa. I don't know that they're any better than they were last year.

They will be lucky to win 4 games. I think they are serious candidates for worst record this year.

Washington, Tampa, SF, and others will be in the mix for the #1 draft pick, but with the Bears dubious offense and a defense that could be worse than last year's mess, they may well be contenders for the worst record in the NFL.

I doubt that the defense will be worse. While they don't have the personnel they really need to execute that defense, they've replaced one of the worst DC's with one of the best. They're the worst team in the division, but probably not truly horrible.

It's still bottom of the barrel, but maybe not quite the laughing stock as in the last few seasons? I think their roster is just very weak and their draft this season was the worst in the division, the way I see it.

I guess they will be a good coach vs player experiment. The talent there is mostly lacking, and one of their best players (Allen) will be out of position. That plus a players learning the 3-4 is a recipe for a very bad defense. It is possible that the coach last year made the team play much worse than their talent level, considering they managed to give up back to back 50 games.
