Tony Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago 2 hours ago, Flash Tizzle said: Absolutely. And while I’m grateful for the season (and playoff win), there’s a feeling that the Bears may be in store for a huge letdown next year. I can only hope the coaches and Poles feel similarity. The “magic” of the late game comebacks and defensive turnover abilities masked a lot of issues. I understand the clutchness and will to win from Williams - but that completion percentage needs work. I believe he even acknowledged it yesterday. We’ll also need to spend a significant amount of draft capital on the defense. No one expected the Bears to be winning a Super Bowl this season. But the path was there to make an unexpected run. I mean, do you think they are going to spend the offseason looking to make the team worse? If there is one thing everyone is on the same page on, it’s right now is the window. The next three seasons before Caleb’s rookie deal is up. Doesn’t mean they can be successful after that, but it’s a lot easier when your QB is still on his rookie deal. You say “there is a feeling the Bears may be in store for a huge letdown next season.” You can feel anyway you want, but the expectation for this team will be to reach the Super Bowl, as it should be. They took a huge step forward this year, and the next step will be expected when the new season starts. Will it result in 11 wins next season and some of the most thrilling games we can remember? No idea, but they need to win multiple playoff games next year, end of story. And lastly, while good fortune certainly seemed to be on their side this season, I don’t know why just straight up growth is being overlooked by so many. Ben Johnson has never been a HC before. Given what we’ve seen from him as a competitor, I don’t expect him to get worse at his job in Year 2. There was also a tremendous learning curve for all involved this last year. The offense looked terrible in the preseason and to start the season. Ben said all along he thought they would be playing their best football in December and January, and he was right. For the first time in a while, there will be continuity from the coaching staff going into next year, and Caleb talked today about working on his accuracy being the biggest focus in the offseason. I know Bears fans aren’t used to any sort of sustained success, but to quote Stacey King…”If you’re scared, go buy a dog” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like we have them now. I like our odds to sustain continued success. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
