I can’t see any reason to recommend taking the Bears to win more than 8 games. They have the same lousy QBs that they did last season and they have running backs who are not the most talented guys around. Special teams and defense will not be enough to carry the Bears to a winning record in 2008.
I would say the under would be the bet here but I don’t see anyone in the NFC North that can beat team. With that in mind the Bears would only have to go 5-5 to make the over the winning side so that’s the way I’ll go. They still have a fantastic defense as well as superb special teams units. So it all comes down to Cedric Benson and Rex Grossman. I think Benson will make everyone forget about Thomas Jones as long as he stays healthy. Grossman however has a knack for giving away points and he must protect the football. Still, the over is the play here.
