If I had to choose one word to associate this year’s Chicago Bears season, it would be utterly disheartening. After finishing 12-4 last season and losing in the playoffs on a doink, I thought for sure this was going to be the year. I even ignored all the skeptics that claimed the Bears would regress. As the year began there was hope, but as we move towards Week 9 of the season, any hope of a Bears destined Super Bowl appearance is quickly fading.
While there has been a lot of comeback teams in the NFL’s 100 seasons, I’m quickly realizing that this team is not going to be one of them.
