DC NFL Preview: Chicago Bears


2007 Record: 7-9

Key Additions:
Chris Williams (T) - Draft - Vanderbilt
Matt Forte (RB) - Draft - Tulane
Brandon Lloyd (WR) - FA - Redskins
Marty Booker (WR) - FA - Dolphins

Key Losses:
Mushin Muhammad (WR) - FA - Panthers
Bernard Berrian (WR) - FA - Vikings
Adam Archuleta (S) - FA - Not Signed
Brendon Ayanbadejo (LB) - FA - Ravens
Darwin Walker (DT) - FA - Panthers

Offense:
Finally the Bears have stopped start Rex Grossman, who very well may be the worst QB of all time. The problem is they are not replacing him with much. Orton will not turn the ball over, but he also can't carry this offense. The only chance this team has to score point is with rookie Matt Forte, and Devin Hester. We all know Hester will run a few back on kickoff/punt returns, but he has not been able to prove that he can be a game breaking receiver, and it will be tough to be one with Kyle Orton at QB. I like Forte, but this offensive line isn't very good, and defenses are going to be stacked up against the run. This is going to be another tough year for the Bears moving the ball.

Defense:
The Bears defense is always good, but they are going to be on the field all the time again, since this offense is one of the worst in the league. Last year, the Bears were ranked 28th in the NFL in total defense, and now are having injury problems. Being on the field all the time will kill this defensive unit, and wear out their stars (Urlacher). If the Bears had a good offense this would be a top 10 defense, but since they are terrible I think that they bears will once again be on the bottom 3rd in the NFL for total defense.

Overall:
Nothing good is going to happen for the Bears in 2008. They really made a mistake not draft a QB, and resigning Rex Grossman. The defense is good, but they will not be able to carry this team, so look for them to have one of the worst records in the NFL.

Predicted Record: 3-13
