Well the draft is over. It’s unlikely any further changes of major significance will take place on the roster this year. Thus the Chicago Bears 2017 schedule can be properly dissected because this is the team they plan to assault it with. All the while asking the big question everybody wants to know. Can they improve from their 3-13 debacle last year, and if so by how much?
Suffice to say the confidence from the outside world is at rock bottom. After what happened in 2016 and then to see them come away with just five draft picks? They’re doomed. That’s all there is to say about it. Of course it’s never as simple as that in the NFL. So many factors are in play for what the Bears can or will accomplish.
Many of them out of their control. Injuries of course being a giant one. A few fortunate breaks here and there might change the entire complexion of things. It really can be that simple. So with that said here is a quarter-by-quarter breakdown of how the Bears will do in 2017.
