It's really tough to make a prediction before the team has even put the pads on. I'll make my official prediction after I see the 3rd preseason game against the Cardinals on August 28.
I have a feeling the schedule isn't going to be as tough as everyone thinks it is. It seems to me the AFC North benefited from a weaker schedule Last year and the NFC East isn't as good as it was a few years ago.
I can't imagine this years team being worse than last years 7-9 team, although if the schedule does turn out to be as tough as expected, I could see the bears being much improved and still going 7-9 or 8-8.
Like everyone else is saying it all depends on the O line and Tommy Harris. If Martz keeps the offense fairly simple at the beginning of the season and works in new wrinkles gradually, I could see the Bears doing as well as 11-5.
So anywhere between 7-9 and 11-5, but I'll be fairly optimistic and say 10-6!
