The playoffs are a real possibility.

We went into Arrowhead and won while being unhealthy af, no one thought we'd do that either, and the chargers aren't real good tbh.

The Broncos are so overrated just because they have Manning lol.

And the Rams are no doubt tough but we definitely could do it.

The Broncos are UNDER rated because they have manning. That defense is the best in the league, and it's not even close.

It's nothing to do with being pessimistic. You're reacting way too heavily to what's going on. FFS, they beat the Raiders and Chiefs by a combined 3 points. The ceiling for this season is 8 wins. They'll win at least one against the Lions, the Redskins, the Bucs and the Niners. Even if they squeeze another one or two, they're not getting to 9 and definitely not 10. Two weeks ago we were talking about whether they'd have the first overall pick or not. Now after the most marginal of wins against two mediocre teams we're talking playoffs. Fickle doesn't even begin to describe it. Being stable and rational doesn't = pessimistic.

I see what your saying and it's quite possible that everything you said will happen,BUT

What if the do manage say a 9-7 or 10-6 record? Is it possible?,ofcourse it is.This is the NFL Mick and you know as well as I do that anything can happen.Now I usually like your hard nose approach to posting as you try to be realistic,but take a step back for a second,man....Enjoy it a little,we haven't seen winning football for AWILE

The Bears are 2-3, which isn't winning football. So we're still not seeing it.

Your seeing a team that won 2 weeks in a row that has the 4th ranked defense in the league...that's a hell of a lot better than what we have seen the past 2 years.

Will you guys ever be positive? Be a fan for once ..

4th ranked by what category? In points per drive (which is the best quantifier imo) they are dead last.

Drink next Sunday everytime you see J Fox pace and clap his hands lol.

I imagine the players absolutely love him as head coach over dr death. Fox just has a lot of energy and always seems excited

They are using YPG. Which is a skewed stat, based on the short fields the bears STs and O have given to the opposing offenses they've faced.

If you really think the Bears have the 4th best defense in the league... I will pray for you.

So we should use the Novak metric instead of how they actually rank defenses?

Is this guy for real or are you just fuckin with me?
