Can the Bears win 9 games this year?

[JT16]

The would have to in order to lose the bet on the under 8 wins. I just don't see them winning 9 this year. They have no real skill position players on offense and their QB situation is the worst in the NFL.

Their defense and special teams are top 5 if the not the best in the NFL. But is it enough to carry them to 9 wins. Their defense will be on the field alot.

Under 8 wins -160 is the line right now (-140 if you shop).

Here is their schedule.

What do you think?

Solid play IMO, especially with Orton starting.

I'm a huge Bears fan and they'll be lucky to win 6 this year! Offensive line is in shambles and everyone already knows about the QB situation! Plus they play the AFC South....easily 3 losses minimum there!

Id say there is a 30% chance you will lose this bet. Looks like a solid bet.

Orton will have a tough time not losing games for them.I see 6 or 7 wins and that's it.I'm a Lions fan and don't be shocked if they sweep the bears this year as their offense has many weapons and the Bears don't.
