Chicago Bears' linebacker Brian Urlacher,who is a very very good player,no doubt,has given the state of the Chicago Bears,in his opinion... he honestly thinks that the Bears,if healthy,will win the NFC North,this upcoming season... one major weakness in the Bears' lineup,is their aging offensive line,and their defense is a little long in the tooth,but still very good... if injuries hit the Bears hard,they will be in trouble,because key injuries can decimate a team... unlike Urlacher,he is downgrading,the Detroit Lions,because of a young offense,and the Green Bay Packers,because of a bad defense,last year,and thinking that both teams have not upgrading their defense,in the off-season...
my opinion:both Detroit,and Chicago have had tough off-seasons,personnel-wise,in Detroit's case,and in Chicago's case,players have had big mouths,in saying they have the team to beat... both teams have improved,no doubt,but are they playoff contenders??? yes,they are,but i dispute that in one way:can the Bears' defense stop both the Lions',and Packers' offenses??? in the Packers' case:Aaron Rodgers threw for 4,643 yards,and had 45 touchdown passes,and had thrown only six interceptions,and in the Lions' case,Matthew Stafford threw for over 5,000 yards,and Calvin Johnson,"Megatron",was ranked number three,by the players,in a poll of top 100 NFL players(Rodgers was number one in that poll,by the way)... so,Chicago may have improved,but how are you going to stop those potent offenses,Brian??? just tell me,and i will believe you...
