Are the Chicago Bears the team we saw in 2018 or are they the disappointing team that went 8-8 last season?

The 2019 Chicago Bears saw their entire team regress after going 12-4 and making the playoffs for the first time since 2011 last season. But on paper, the Bears still tout one of the elite defensive groups in football and are hoping that a quarterback competition between Mitchell Trubisky and veteran newcomer Nick Foles can provide stability for a Matt Nagy offense that hasn’t found their strengths yet.

But let’s assume what all Bears fans want to see: Nick Foles wins the starting quarterback role.

After a 2019 season that ended with more questions than they started with, the Bears are one of the few teams in the NFL that could go 8-8 or 12-4 or 6-10 and not many would be surprised by the result.

But with an exciting draft class that the Bears believe can contribute this season, along with a clean bill of health for key members of the defense, it’s not hard to envision this team winning two or three more games and finding themselves in the playoff picture once again.

So here five reasons the Bears can regain their NFC North crown in 2020 with Nick Foles at the helm.
