MINNEAPOLIS – First, settling any questions about 2017… .
"I guarantee you we are going to win the Super Bowl next year," wide receiver Alshon Jeffery said after the Bears’ 38-10 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Of course Jeffery didn’t say who exactly the “we” was that he was referring to, and he is headed toward free agency after his franchise tag expires. But for now he’s a Bear, and he was asked about “this team,” meaning the Bears, so take that as him handicapping his current team’s chances this year.
Now, there’s also the matter of who will coach the Bears to that Super Bowl, but indications continue pointing to that being John Fox.
