5 bold predictions for the Chicago Bears in 2024

1. The Chicago Bears will win the NFC North 

Considering most people are debating between the Detroit Lions and the Green Bay Packers, this is still a bold call outside of Chicago. While fans are ready for the division title, those are two young teams that are ascending. Both made the playoffs last year as well. 

Still, the Bears finished the year 5-3 and they have a major upgrade at quarterback. Even if they just play the way that they are playing, and they beat the Packers because of an improved quarterback, you are talking about a team that is capable of going 6-2 in a particular stretch in the season.

The Bears are deeper than ever at receiver and they have depth along the offensive line. They have a couple of tight ends and a couple of running backs to trust. The defense is in year three of a former defensive coordinator’s mold. The unit really started to find its groove with Matt Eberflus calling the plays. So, are looking at a well-rounded unit and a group that can play both offense and defense. This is a team that should be able to compete with anyone and should be right in the mix for a division title.
