4. Eddy Piniero will make every field goal attempt

The Bears have replaced on kicker problem with another. After a solid start, where he connected on 8-of-9 field goals, Eddy Pineiro has been missing valuable kicks almost on a weekly basis.

Last week against the Rams, Piniero missed two field goals in the first quarter of a game where points came at a premium. Matt Nagy also elected for his struggling offense to go for it on fourth-and-9 rather than kick a 49-yard field goal after the first miss.

While at first glance this might not seem bold, this might be my boldest prediction, as Pineiro hasn’t been perfect on kicks from Soldier Field since the weather turned into that chilly and windy element. Still, after Nagy decided to stick with Pineiro rather than look elsewhere, you’d hope that bodes well for Sunday.
