The Bears’ future is heavily dependent on whether they end up with the No. 1 pick via the Panthers, and it looks as though they couldn’t have picked a better team to trade with in March. Betting against the Panthers was smart money, and ESPN’s latest calculations give them a 68.7% chance of finishing as the NFL’s worst team.
They’re 1-10, they just fired coach Frank Reich and they whiffed badly by drafting quarterback Bryce Young instead of quarterback C.J. Stroud. It’s too early to close the book completely on Young, who has been brutal, but it’s hard to imagine him catching up to Stroud.
