No one’s expecting Chicago to shock the world in 2022. Our Bears Wire staff share their final record predictions ahead of the opener.

The Chicago Bears are gearing up for the start of the 2022 NFL season against the San Francisco 49ers, which kicks off a new regime under head coach Matt Eberflus and general manager Ryan Poles.

Can the Bears shock everyone with a winning record? Probably not. But can they surprise everyone by winning more than they expect them to? Perhaps. Our Bears Wire staff shares their predictions for Chicago’s 2022 season.
