The NFL season is about halfway over, and the Chicago Bears are 7-2, which is not only better than the same point in time last year, but also where I predicted them to be at this point of the season. I'm 7 and 2 in my predictions. This is yet another year where they could have been either 8-1 or a lot worse because some of those wins could have easily gone the other way. Woulda, coulda, shoulda.
The Bears are on their bye week, so I won't be able to watch them for at least two weeks, maybe three. Their next game is against the Saints and it might not be shown in my region. I will be in Chicago for Thanksgiving when they play the Lions.
On MNF yesterday, the Bills beat the Vikings, which puts the Bears at the top of the NFC North!
It is conceivable that the Bears could lose every division game and still make the playoffs; they might even win the division again. It's weird. One week they look like a championship team; the next week they look like they forgot how to play football.
