Fk Greeny he ain't with us.
Id pick bears because the vikings defense is not nearly as good as Chicago's
Chicago is closer then yall think. Caleb only has to be average for them to get to the playoffs this season. That Defense will be top notch. Plus Keenan Allen DJ Moore combo will do most of the work for him.

No Bears fan wanted the Bears to select a defensive player.
"A rebuilder is a contender, the definition of a contender really" what?
Words and their usage are interesting! At the beginning of a season, all teams are contenders! We are so bent on determining whom we think are the best teams that we tend to forget that anything can happen!
For the people acting like Detroit is so big and bad, the Bears beat them last season already. We would’ve beat them twice if that lead wasn’t blown. Lions almost got swept. Bears fans are not scared of Detroit.
The bears weakness is coaching. Mainly our head coach is the issue. Maybe Shane can be a good OC for us but I’m not sure on that. The coaching is what has held the team back for two years now.

If you're talking about long term, then Jefferson & Addison would be the better choice. But in terms of current talent & production, Moore & Allen are the obvious choice
As a lifelong Chicagoan, if he just throws a pure spiral 70 yard ball incomplete we're all going to lose our minds. Im so ready. Our list of atrocious QBs through the years is truly impressive.
As a Bears fan, I think we could be a wild card contender next year. I think by 2025 we should be ready to make that big leap to legit contender.

With this Bears slightly improved defense that was nearly the best in the last half of this last season and a significantly improved offense and the rest of the draft.... This is what we expect from the Bears and Williams. So that we have the minimum expectations and the "too high" expectations. 4000-5000 yards passing, 30-40 TDs, 10-13 wins, a playoff berth - NFC Championship game appearance. Cam Newton, Justin Herbert did the best on paper. CJ Stroud maybe the best full season rookie QB playoff run. ( I know Purdy had one too but😏.) We've never seen a generational rookie QB join an NFL team "this good on paper." If he translates to the NFL and plays all 17 games based on his college game average that's almost 300 yards a game and 2.5 TDs a game = 5000 yards and 40 TD's. I think he's intelligent enough to process the NFL game. It's about the matchups. Will his receivers be open and the offensive line give him time to pass? These are luxuries that most rookie quarterbacks getting drafted early in the draft don't get with the team they join. Then a proven defense! I don't see any reason why Caleb Williams doesn't put on the best rookie performance and numbers we have ever seen in the history of the NFL!
What kind of stupid question is this? They’re a 10+ win team no doubt
i think they will be in the north but quite yet for SB but we'll have to wait and see
They just need to build up the o-line a bit
Andrew Luck walked into a better situation
Love the bears but im not sold on the Williams kid..
Bro yall have been having the same recycled conversations for 3 months now. Just let it rest until the draft is over
Da Bears won 7 games with Justin Fields. If Caleb is who they say he is thats good for 3 more wins
I think it will be lions first followed by bears, packers, Vikings.
All he has to do is not loose us games
Bears get no respect for what there building.

Not a single game played lions and packers have the same team if the bears want respect a easy way to get it is to win not lose any think they deserve respect

Lmao 4th in division. Mark my words. The bears are winning the division this year. That defense will be top 5. And the offense can get to top 10 with just decent play from Caleb.
The answer is NO.
Yeah this is why I don’t listen to all these random mfs on ESPN

What I do not understand is all the love for GB? Even MN? Did green Bay have a decent year last year...it was avg. But yet they are the toast of the division along with the lions. The team the Bears should have beaten twice last year. But ended up with 1 win. Which was not even close. We beat them. GB had A. Jones which was a bear killer. And Jacob's is NOT a better RB. Statistically maybe, but not a better player. It's not a fantasy football league that wins. It's the player that makes the play when it matters. Jacobs is not that player. Then saying the Bears are worse than MN??? Dude tell me the dispensary you go to. Come on. If Caleb is not going to be great because he is a rookie. How is MN rookie going to be so good. Stupid reporting. MN lost their best defensive player, and a QB. Greeny is at least is realistic. Very small holes on the Bears team. Getting the BEST QB coming out and people think they will be worse? Please we were .500 with Tyler Baggett. Also with GB and love? How many one year wonders have there been? He has done nothing to show he will only get better. What because Rodgers did it? Hate to tell you love is not rodgers
Look at this mf wanting us to take defense get Joe alt😭

The Bears have zero chance of finishing .500 if they opt for Bust to be Caleb Williams and more than likely replicate the 3-14 record two seasons ago. We would have been contenders to win the NFC north if we’d kept Fields. Williams though is horrendous and the worst QB in the draft. Why any team wants a nothing special cry baby as their starting Q is beyond me. He’s mentally and emotionally weak on top of he has quit on his teams twice. Greenberg showing us he really is uninformed and delusional cos anyone leaning towards CW is only buying into the hype.

Can someone pls explain why people hesitate to say if the bears are in better shape than the Vikings? Even with a good QB and JJ, they were still average. Aaron Jones is aging and always injured. Tj Hok is coming off a serious knee injury, at a position where he gets hit hard a lot. Defense isn't top 10. I seriously don't get it. The only team the bears have had historic issues with are the Packers, not the other 2
