There's a Huge Keenan Allen Game In Here Somewhere
8. Seattle Seahawks (Home)
What a random game. An NFC West opponent in late December is one of those games that you forget about immediately after it happens. The Seahawks are probably going to be, at the very least, okayish. But so will the Bears, and it's a home game. A win here and the Bears stay IN THE HUNT.
7. Los Angeles Rams (Home)
At some point in the week lead up to this game, there's going to be some video of Sean McVay perfectly reciting every pass rep from Caleb William's entire college career. If there's a surprising and slightly-disappointing home loss on the Bears' schedule, it feels like this is the one.
6. Detroit Lions (Home)
The Lions may end up regressing some, but they're still going to be good enough to challenge for an NFC North title. Jared Goff at Soldier Field will always remind Bears' fans of that glorious 2018 game, so fingers crossed for a seasonably-appropriate mid-December forecast for this one. Bear Weather is back.
