The Bears will reach the NFC Championship game this year

I got out of the shower. I said, you know what? NFC Championship. Let's just settle with that. The thing is, you never want to win the Super Bowl the first year that the team's together. You want to go through the tough days and then the next year you build.

Prediction Football Medium

The Bears lost in the Wild Card round to the Eagles (the Double Doink game), failing to reach the NFC Championship.

The Bears are a Super Bowl contender

I watched part of the game, and I'm telling you, this team is a Super Bowl contender. I'm dead serious. That defense. You're not telling me that defense—I mean, I agree, but shut up. The defense is Super Bowl caliber.

The Bears finished 12-4 and won the NFC North, but they were eliminated in the Wild Card round by the Eagles in the 'Double Doink' game.

The Bears will win the NFC North this year

This is your year to win that division. Aaron Rodgers is hurt. Kirk Cousins is a nerd. Matt Patricia lost the locker room. This is your year to win that division.

The championship window has officially closed for the Seattle Seahawks

This is a major, like, officially the window has shut on the Seattle Seahawks. I'm ready to declare window closed. They're going to now have to remake themselves as an offensive team. No more glory hole.

Prediction Football Hot

The Seahawks actually made the playoffs in 2018 (10-6), 2019 (11-5), and 2020 (12-4). Their window wasn't fully shut, though the defensive era was over.
