      Same for me. I actually feel bad for the doomers that think Caleb will bust, bears will ruin him... And think this is the same old Bears. This is all giving me complete 2015 Cubs vibes. Completely different culture in the front office because of Poles.

      @@pttthhhsick of the doubters on CW! They had a great draft (punter was a head scratcher at first but fine with it) plus a hell of an off season! I dont know what their season will be like but I after every draft they are estimated at only winning 5-6 games every year from big shot analysts. They now have them in the playoffs and I’ll take that as a good sign and accept the positivity!!🐻⬇️

      I’ve never been so hyped for sustained success. After the 2018 season, I had hype but felt like we were in a window. I felt like we’d fall off in 2-3 years which we did miserably. 2019/2020 all mediocre seasons.
      Then 2021, bad season, we clean house.
      2022, rock bottom season. #1 pick in the draft.
      2023, we see improvement and it’s good improvement because we have a young team and no bad contracts. #1 pick in draft again from Carolina trade.
      2024, my expectation is 9 wins minimum. Even if Caleb has rookie whoas. The team last year wasn’t carried because of the quarterback. We should be a 9 win team this year even with a tough division.

I’m very optimistic, but there’s 10-15% of me, kinda like the devil, who says something won’t work out. I think and hope I’m wrong. Poles had been immense, but they HAVE to prove it on the field.

      I 100% agree. I’m 44 and we all been let down year after year. But this off season feels different then any other seasons. I just hope it works out like we all wish. I’m tired of being laughed at from all the teams in our decision. They look at the schedule and when they see us. Their like year that’s a win for us. For once I want them to have doubts about playing us. We really need this team to have a break out. I’m ready for them to start off rough. But I hope it doesn’t take long for them to all make a connection. And it’s a lot on Walden calling the plays also.

    GM Poles is doing very well... Former Offensive Linemen tend to be the most knowledgeable people in football conversations. They're either too nuanced, or sometimes they actually have no blind spots. I'm happy it looks like we have the latter in Poles. My favorite thing he did was placing Justin in a good scenario. I knew we had enough draft capalital to get things done without needing to cash in on something high for Justin Fields.
