Win/Loss prediction from Yahoo Sports

[Discus fish salesman]

With all the controversy I could see the packers having a tough season due to turmoil. Rodgers could make up and injury to sit out and still get paid

 

[ThatGuyRyan]

The offense became watchable soon as the O line figured it out and it started with Mustipher at center

10 wins boyz

? they beat on a bunch of shitty teams . 10 wins is possible but I’m still thinking 7 or 8. If Nagy pulls his head out of his ass, possible to get 10

 

[FozzyBear]

15-2

Rodgers has always been a douche bag... The team will rally behind him anyways because he's their only chance at getting a ride to the big dance. Their offense will still produce. We'll see how their defense fairs with a new DC.

 

[GoBears]

16-0 and minimum 2 Suprabowels this year.

 

[TL1961]

This is definitely a put up or shut up year for Nagy. Offense has pieces to be a top 10-15 offense with competent coaching. Will Nagy continue to lead the league in different personnel groupings or will he stick to what works, form an identity, have better game flow, and not over complicate the offense?

Can desai get the juice back in the defense? Vic was a master schemer and masterful play caller and in game adjustor. Pagano was not. Will he be closer to Vic or chuck? Vic also was great at putting guys in the best position and playing to strengths.

If Nagy could miraculously get out of his own way, and not be a full blown clown, and if desai could be closer to Vic than chuck, the team could def win 10+ games.

Nagy has been working with an offensive line that is as bad as any team's OL in the league, and poor QB play. He has made the playoffs twice in three seasons with that pathetic group, and the bashing never stops.

I am not making him into Belichick, but good grief! Maybe you folks want John Fox back.

I am expecting a rookie QB to show inexperience and have struggles at times, but Fields has talent we haven't had recently. Let's see what the offense can do with new OL, Kmet and Mooney in Year 2, and Cohen back.

We don't have the presonnel KC does, or Atlanta for that matter, but let's see if we can field an NFL-worth OL for once and see what we can do.

 

[EDPeezy]

I like Nagy. I think there is something there. They play for him. He definitely has had some head scratching moments though. I also wouldn’t give his offense very much credit for the team making the playoffs 2 of the last 3 years.

I‘m not sold on him. But I’m also not smart enough about football to be able to know what to pin on him and what doesn’t need to get pinned on him. As far as the offense goes. Like was Mitch really that slow to process things or is Nagy’s stuff so convoluted and confusing that absorbing it is pretty difficult? Does his stuff work with the right personnel or is he on some video game nonsense that won’t work for anybody for a sustained period? IDK.

 

[Raskolnikov]

That's way too generous for either Dalton or a rookie.

 

[TheWinman]

my assumption that this is with Fields playing. I don't see the Bears beating an Aaron Rodgers Packers team with Andy Dalton as the QB

Dalton is better than Foles or Mitch was.

 

[Chicago Staleys]

The offense became watchable soon as the O line figured it out and it started with Mustipher at center

10 wins boyz

Lol no it didn’t. They beat horrible defenses after the skid then went to shit again playing against good teams.

 

[Chicago Staleys]

Dalton is better than Foles or Mitch was.

Actually I’d say he’s the same. Vanilla, injury prone, check down QB.

 

[Gustavus Adolphus]

I love when people post, "we'll see" because of course we will. That's the only option we have.

Wins/Losses as per DaWindyCity​

Week 1: Chicago Bears @ Los Angeles Rams on SNF​

Matt Nagy sticks to his word as Andy Dalton starts the season as the Bears’ starting quarterback. However, Dalton throws three interceptions and looks lost in this one. The defense holds the Rams to just 12 points through three quarters, but the fourth quarter is where they finally get too tired and Los Angeles pulls away.

Rams beat Bears 26-10 (0-1)

Week 2: Chicago Bears vs. Cincinnati Bengals​

All week long, leading up to this game, Nagy continues to show support for Dalton and gives him another chance. Against the Bengals, the Bears’ offense barely does enough to scrape by with a victory. The defense puts on a dominant performance against Joe Burrow and company, but the questions begin to loom over whether Justin Fields should get his shot.

Bears beat Bengals 13-10 (1-1)

Week 3: Chicago Bears @ Cleveland Browns​

Dalton gets one more chance in Week 3 as the Bears get close, but cannot overcome a couple of costly Dalton turnovers against the Browns. Chicago falls to 1-2 and Nagy is forced to make a big decision going into a Week 4 divisional contest.

Browns beat Bears 20-17 (1-2)

Week 4: Chicago Bears vs. Detroit Lions​

This is the game where Fields puts the NFL on notice. Nagy makes the tough decision to bench Dalton and start the rookie. Fields instantly puts on a show against a poor Detroit defense, throwing for three touchdowns in his debut while David Montgomery has a strong showing and scores once himself. Chicago is back at .500 with a dominant victory.

Bears beat Lions 34-16 (2-2)

Week 5: Chicago Bears @ Las Vegas Raiders​

In Week 5, the Bears continue their winning ways with a convincing victory over Jon Gruden and his Raiders. Fields comes up big once again, throwing for a pair of touchdowns and running one in as well. The defense picks off Derek Carr twice as Las Vegas gets overwhelmed by the Bears in every aspect of the game.

Bears beat Raiders 34-17 (3-2)

Week 6: Chicago Bears vs. Green Bay Packers​

Now on a 2-game winning streak, the Bears face their largest test of the season with an all-too-familiar foe in Aaron Rodgers — yes, he stays in Green Bay. It’s a back-and-forth affair between the oldest rivalry in football, but a late touchdown drive led by Fields gets Chicago a big victory.

Bears beat Packers 27-24 (4-2)

Week 7: Chicago Bears @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers​

Don’t think Tom Brady forgot about last year’s debacle. The Bears beat the Buccaneers in close fashion, with Brady forgetting what down it was late in the game and eventually seeing his face all over social media, plastered with memes. The defending champions do enough to get it done in another close game, as the Bears’ winning streak stops at three.

Bucs beat Bears 21-16 (4-3)

Week 8: Chicago Bears vs. San Francisco 49ers​

By this time, the San Francisco 49ers have thrown the rookie in as well, showing Jimmy Garoppolo the bench. This is the battle between two rookie quarterbacks in Fields and Trey Lance — the guy San Francisco chose instead. It’s a battle, and mostly a defensive game, but the Bears pull away off a late field goal from Cairo Santos and the Bears get back in the win column.

Bears beat 49ers 19-17 (5-3)

Week 9: Chicago Bears @ Pittsburgh Steelers on MNF​

Finally, Chicago is back on the prime time stage. Again, it’ll be on the road and this time against one of the best quarterbacks of this century in Ben Roethlisberger. This is a game where Fields shines the brightest. It might be his best game all year long, lighting up one of the league’s best defenses for over 300 passing yards.

Bears beat Steelers 30-20 (6-3)

Week 11: Chicago Bears vs. Baltimore Ravens​

The Bears then head back home to face Lamar Jackson and the Ravens, who have a scary roster on both sides of the football. Chicago keeps it relatively close, but Jackson ends up being too much for them in the end. Baltimore’s defense also gives Fields his “welcome to the NFL” game, as the Bears rookie tosses a couple of picks and experiences his worst game of the season.

Ravens beat Bears 27-20 (6-4)

Week 12: Chicago Bears @ Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving​

Bouncing back from an ugly performance against Baltimore, Fields will have plenty to be thankful for after this one. The Bears run away with a Thanksgiving victory — literally — as Fields tops the 100-yard mark on the ground, paired with two rushing touchdowns. Chicago puts themselves in strong position to work towards a Wildcard berth, here.

Bears beat Lions 41-13 (7-4)

Week 13: Chicago Bears vs. Arizona Cardinals​

After an enormous victory on Thanksgiving, the Bears come back down to earth in only the type of fashion the Bears can do. Fields experiences some rookie growing pains, and attempts to lead the Bears down the field one last time in the fourth quarter. However, Chicago gets stopped on a late fourth down and the Cardinals pull off the win.

Cardinals beat Bears 23-20 (7-5)

Week 14: Chicago Bears @ Green Bay Packers on SNF​

It doesn’t get easier after the Bears fell to Arizona. They get another prime time game, but in one of the toughest places to play in all of football: Lambeau Field on Sunday Night Football. Rodgers typically doesn’t lose to the same team twice in one year, so he does enough to get the Packers the win. The Bears now face a do-or-die stretch late in the year.

Packers beat Bears 30-24 (7-6)

Week 15: Chicago Bears vs. Minnesota Vikings on MNF​

In their second-straight prime time game and a must-win scenario, the Bears host Minnesota in the teams’ first meeting of the season. This game starts out close, but ultimately the defense picks off Kirk Cousins twice in the second half and Chicago’s offense rolls behind a strong showing from their rookie quarterback.

Bears beat Vikings 34-21 (8-6)

Week 16: Chicago Bears @ Seattle Seahawks​

This is now the most important game of the season. If Chicago loses this one, they likely have no shot at the postseason. Fortunately, the defense holds Russell Wilson in check and David Montgomery has his biggest game of the year, compiling over 150 yards on the ground and a touchdown. Chicago pulls off a much-needed win to stay alive.


Bears beat Seahawks 16-10 (9-6)

Week 17: Chicago Bears vs. New York Giants​

In yet another must-win game, the Bears host Daniel Jones and a turnover-prone offense. The defense obliterates Jones, sacking him seven times in this game. Chicago scores four touchdowns — three in the first half — en route to a one-sided victory over the Giants.

Bears beat Giants 28-13 (10-6)

Week 18: Chicago Bears @ Minnesota Vikings​

This is it. This is the game that determines the Bears’ playoff future. If they win, they’re in as a Wildcard team. If they lose, the Bears are the first team out of the postseason. Fields heads out in his last regular season game as a rookie and does what he’s done on the biggest stages his entire career, both college and professional. He puts on a gutsy performance, leading the Bears to a postseason-clinching victory over a divisional rival on the road.

Bears beat Vikings 26-17 (11-6)

If Matt Nagy continues his preseason strategy then you shouldn’t base anything off of preseason games considering the starters don’t play.
