After further review: Revisiting 5 bold predictions entering Bears’ 2021 season

All year long, I’ve provided my top bold predictions for nearly every Chicago Bears game from Week 1 to Week 17 of the 2021 season. I’m nothing if not accountable and since the Bears opened their season against the Los Angeles Rams in September, I’ve made 68 bold predictions.

Of those 68 predictions, 24 of them ended up coming to fruition while the other 44 just look plain foolish in hindsight. Of course, I just started predicting Robert Quinn sacks over the last month and a half, but they still count. And if the Bears lose this weekend, my prediction winning percentage will be the same as the team’s.

In addition to the weekly predictions, I also made five bold claims heading into the season. Since we’ve reached two-minute warning on the regular season as a whole and this game against the Minnesota Vikings is meaningless, let’s look back on those preseason predictions and see just how I wrong I was about the season.
