Barnwell has his rankings up after that horrible week. I'm not sure if I agree with his number one pick...

I fully agree with #1. Bears are so badass that they can secure the #1 spot in the division on a bye week.

GB loss was a result of a bad start of the game and a terrible performance by a frustrated Cutler. As long as they remain healthy and Cutler keeps his head in the game, they will do well. They have a top of the league defense and special teams. They have a quality offense when healthy and mentally in the game.

I've also heard people saying (not in this thread) Bears have an easy schedule for rest of season... wtf seriously?

Det (hard)
Car (easy)
@Tenn (easy-med) (7-1)
Hou (hard)
@SF (hard)
Minn (hard)
Sea (med)
@Minn (hard)
GB (hard)
@Ariz (hard)
@Det (hard) (13-3?)

Thats a rough schedule by any estimation. I see 1/2 easy, 1/2 med, and 8 hard. However, staying healthy could result in a 13-3 to 11-5 type of season.

The problem I see with the Bears is Cutler. He is alot like Romo in that he plays great when things are going well but can also completely implode at times. Thinking of the Bears falling behind by two scores and needing Cutler to drive down the field in a 2 minute drill leaves me nervous.

Their defense is scary good though/

Cutler is much better than Romo.  Romo is horrible.
