The spotlight is back on the Chicago Bears after taking Week 7 off for their bye.  The Bears have been flying under the radar this season (as much as a Chicago Bears team could) while the Chicago Cubs were making a little postseason noise.  As the Cubs wait ’til next year, a lot of fans will be tuning in to the 2-4 Bears to see what GM Ryan Pace and head coach John Fox have cooking.

After a rough start to the season, the Bears had a couple of comeback wins against the Raiders and Chiefs before stumbling into the bye in a Week 6 loss to the Detroit Lions.  After a week of rest, the Bears are gearing up for a November that will include the rare five game schedule including a pair of prime time date.  With some seemingly winnable games in December, November becomes a critical month for the Bears that will define their season.  Let’s look ahead to preview the games and see where we think the Bears will end up for the month.
