USA Today Sports’ Nate Davis shared his latest record projections (subscribers only) for the 2022 season, and it’s clear he doesn’t have much faith in the Chicago Bears this year. Safe to say, he isn’t alone in his belief.
Davis predicted a 4-13 record for Chicago, which would equate to them having the third overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft. While Davis believes head coach Matt Eberflus should get the most out of his players, he has a hard time predicting more than four wins.
Chicago Bears (4-13): Hard to figure why a team amid an obvious reset didn’t appear to do more to facilitate the progression of second-year QB Justin Fields, whether hiring more established offensive coaches or bolstering the O-line or playmakers. Little doubt rookie coach Matt Eberflus will get Fields and Co. to play hard … yet hard to find many wins on this schedule.
