There’s no doubt that Chicago upgraded their pass rush this offseason with the addition of former All-Pro Robert Quinn, who is coming off an 11.5-sack season with the Dallas Cowboys. Not to mention the Bears still have a little someone known as Khalil Mack, who isn’t happy with his performance last season. Which is not good for his opponents. The pairing of Mack and Quinn is going to be something to watch, as should be the new reserves behind them in fifth-round rookie Trevis Gipson and veteran Barkevious Mingo.

The verdict: Upgrade
