They got a lot of picks left. I'm pretty sure they invested in the OL last year also

Has no OLine. Good luck to him


Bears o line was much better than Fields made them look. Chicago offense has a lot of potential to be very good, especially the second half of the season after Caleb settles in. Only thing holding them back is their coach at this point.

I hope they do become contenders - league is more fun when the Bears are good


Based off what? When were they good? When they lost in the super bowl with Rex Grossman.

It was a terrible OL for the first couple of years of Fields’s tenure, and then still bad/below average for most of last year because they dealt with a lot of injuries and had Lucas Patrick at center. But they’ve replaced Patrick, should presumably be healthy, and a guy like Darnell Wright should also be even better this year since he was just a rookie last year (and he was still pretty good last year, especially for a rookie). It should at worst be about a league average OL this year.

It’s pretty amazing: the Bears have a top-5 WR room (possibly the best), a top-10 TE room, a solid RB group, and an average OL. Plus a defense that’s been playing at a high level since the Sweat trade. It’s about night-and-day for Caleb from the situation Fields entered. If Caleb fails, he has no one to blame but himself, no excuses at all. Unprecedented situation for a #1 overall pick to enter.

Everything this guy just said. The Bears D is legit good. Offensive weapons all over the field. If Williams fails this is on him.

Yep. And the Lions coach is an absolute moron who hired a bunch of other morons to coach with him and had a lucky year. They’re a bunch of former players who think they’ll be successful if they say the F word every other word. They’re absolute idiots. Lions win 6 games next year with a hard schedule.

I suppose people are downvoting optimistic posts about the Bears' future because they dislike Caleb, but it seems inarguable that this team has been set up for him to succeed sooner than later.

Three blown double-digit 4th quarter leads cost them 10 wins last season, and a good portion of that blame can fall on the offense settling for FGs instead of finding the endzone.

They weren't that far off from being a decent team, and now they've added more offensive pieces to get them over the hump. They'll be fun to watch.

Y’all couldn’t even beat the Packers while we were in a rebuilding year. Caleb is a bisexual Fields 2.0

Thank you. We see it every year when a team plays a cupcake schedule. Lions will go back to mediocrity and the hype train will be derailed.
