Ugh, I wanted to stay out of this thread, but I couldn't.
The Bears have a lot of areas they need to shore up. Fortunately, the division looks weaker than expected this year.
I'm a Michigan fan, and I have to say the victory over Indiana on Saturday was the most embarrassing win I've watched. I'd imagine it was the same feeling for Bears fans eeking out that win against the Lions.
But you shouldn't feel so bad about having a close game with the Lions. They aren't the Lions of the past decade, and they even gave Green Bay a helluva fight on Sunday. So, don't feel bad about struggling against them. I think they'll pull off at least one stunner this year, and if they can stop shooting themselves in the foot (a Lions tradition), they should be able to pull off a .500+ season next year.
