The Bears are EASY to defeat.
1. Shut down the run.
2. Shut down the short passing game.
3. Force Caleb Williams to throw 10+ air yards.
Game over.

It’s interesting.
Some people don’t think Dillon Gabriel can play, but as a 3rd round rookie Gabriel was more accurate than second-year starter Caleb Williams during the 2025 regular season.
Gabriel: 59.5%
Williams: 58.1%

This cycle is really just
A huge swath of Bears fans say the same dumb thing
The opposite happens
Bears fans insist no reasonable person ever thought/said that
Ironically, I agree on the last part, just not the way they mean.
Enjoying the cycle
Ben Johnson: We want Caleb at 70% completion
Caleb: 58% completion
Bears fans: Completion % doesn’t matter!
Ben Johnson: Improving comp % is a priority
Bears fans: We never said completion % doesn’t matter
The thing I don't understand around the Lions being favored over the Packers in the North is Green Bay was clearly better last year and had the injury excuse too.
Detroit has an easier schedule we THINK, but are they better than GB? No.
