		<description><![CDATA[Calvin johnson got 25% of the targets last season. That negates yor throw it up to calvin BS. Stafford will prove to be a top 5 QB again this year and jay &quot;pouty face&quot; cutler will be again middle of the pack. He will never match what stafford DID last year or the years to come even with the wannabe CJ brandon &quot;nutjob/women beater&quot; marshall. I already bought my week 17 tickets because I know that will be a good game. For you dumb bears fans that would be when we beat you to lock up our 5th seed in the playoffs. MARK IT]]></description>

Slow down there Packers fans. The Bears give your team the most trouble of anyone in that division. How quickly we forget that the year they won the SB it was the BEARS who won the north,not the Pack.

-----------------------

Oh we remember - just like we remember taking the NFC Championship on your home field. 

If Green Bay doesn&#039;t have a record number of injuries that season and a record number of penalties called on them the first time the Bears and Packers met that year(MNF), the Packers win the division going away.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I see a few comments about the Bears being the toughest competition to the Packers?  Comments talking about how the Bears won the North in 2010, same years at the Pack winning their 4th ring.  Wouldn&#039;t that be the same year the Packers had 16 on IR?  Take 1/2 off and the Bears don&#039;t win the division.  Make the right call week 1 against the Lions and the Bears don&#039;t even make the freaking playoffs as the Giants would have gotten the 6 seed from their head-to-head beat down on duh bears.  As a Lions fan I don&#039;t see the Bears as a push over, but I DO see the Packers as the team to still beat in the North.  I don&#039;t see them winning 15 this year, but I don&#039;t see less than 11 wins either.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m not a bears fan at all but as long as the Bears keep playing the packers, I will root for them in the NFC. The packers have got to have the second, next to steelers, most arrogant fan base in the NFL

Here&#039;s to a good season Chicago, you have a good team with a very underrated QB, and a defense that plays like the game was meant to be played. Beat down the Lions and packers this year, they don&#039;t deserve to be considered among the top teams in the NFC.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The fact that the Packers have won the last 4 matchups has little bearing on the overall strength of the Bears. In said matchups the Packers barely won 10-9 to scratch their way into the playoffs and then won again in the NFCCG. Last year the Pack were nigh invulnerable and swept almost everybody. To expect that trend to continue is a bit optimistic,maybe even naieve,particularly in light of how the Bears appear(losing Martz is addition by subtraction)to have gotten better offensively. Either way,both North divisions should super competitive and exciting this year. If Rodgers goes down like Cutler did the Pack fans may be eating their words come December.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#039;t know why Lions fans are so high and mighty and why anyone else boasts them up. The Lions didn&#039;t beat a team with a winning record last season, the only thing on defense they have is their D-line despite the fact they give up the run almost as easy as the pass and once Johnson falls to the Madden curse, that&#039;s the Lions offense. Saying the Bears are going to be garbage next year is pure fandom talking. Saying they won&#039;t be relevant in the NFC let alone the North as well as probably not making it as the 6th seed in the playoffs, are you kidding me? Check your biased idiocy at the door.]]></description>

No doubt the Bears have improved their roster.  Probably more talent than the 2006 team. Doesn&#039;t mean they&#039;ll be great and Briggs says as much.  Defensively they do match up with GB as well as anybody, watch the tape.

I refuse to acknowledge Detroit.  You had one decent season, we know.  Let it go and stop telling everyone about it.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve read the comments and all I&#039;ve seen from our genius Packer fans and even smarter Lion&#039;s fans is bunch of nah ah&#039;s and huh uh&#039;s.  Vike fans seem to be mute this off season.  

All Briggs is saying that he&#039;s excited.  The Bears do look good.  Anyone who says otherwise is an idiot.  He also said there&#039;s a ton of work to be done BEFORE they can be called champions.  In any case...games still need to be played and I think the Bears are quite aware of that.  

Lions, before the season starts, do you think you&#039;re off season arrest total will match your wins from last year?  I&#039;ll take that bet.  

Pack...you know who you really are.  That was biggest fake out ever last year.  Nice D.

Vikes...you still there?  

Go Bears...drop a thumbs down on my post if you like green and yellow (diarrhea?), blue and silver (police?), or purple and gold (princesses?)]]></description>

Good thing it&#039;s 2012 now...

I am extremely optimistic for this season.  Yes, I&#039;m a Bears fan so most Packer or Lion&#039;s fans will automatically disagree with anything I say (as most Bears fans would do to them) but I feel like this is going to be a team to be reckoned with this season.  I can easily see 12-4 and pushing the Packers for the Division title.  We&#039;ll be running an offense that will more closely resemble what was working during the 5-game winning streak last season before Cutler went down and if he does go down, I&#039;m okay with Campbell making a start or two to keep things going.  The Packers are still (rightly) the favorites to win the division, but I think Detroit&#039;s lack of maturity and the fact that they won&#039;t be sneaking up on anybody this year will keep them from taking the next step.  Regardless, the NFC North has almost without question become the best division in the NFC.  Gonna be a fun regular season!]]></description>

Slow down there Packers fans. The Bears give your team the most trouble of anyone in that division. How quickly we forget that the year they won the SB it was the BEARS who won the north,not the Pack.

Sorry but it will be years before the Bears are relevant again even in the North let alone the NFL. Da Bears just keep digging the hole deeper by patch working their team. Time to totally revamp their defense, and o line.]]></description>

People fail to realize the Bears were the hottest team in the NFL before Cutler had his surgery. And they only got better in the offseason.

Yeah, they were much hotter than that team that was undefeated at the time and had already beaten them once.  Clearly the hottest team in the NFL.]]></description>
