The 2020 Chicago Bears schedule is now official, and fans should be over the moon with excitement. We now try to predict each and every game.

What a glorious time to be alive. The 2020 NFL schedule has been released, and we now know exactly how it will look for our Chicago Bears. This year, the Bears’ schedule looks a little less daunting than it did a year ago, thankfully.

The NFC North drew the AFC South and NFC South this year. Looking at things record-wise from a year ago, the Bears should feel pretty good about themselves, but that’s not taking the offseason additions into consideration.

One big move which everyone will want to see in person is, of course, Tom Brady to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Thankfully, Chicago hosts Tampa in that one — but we’ll get to that later.

It is always difficult to predict and project in May, but now that the draft is over and free agency has calmed down a bit, this is always an interesting predicament. Considering there is a nationwide pandemic happening, a schedule release and analysis is definitely big news. So, let’s try to predict some games, shall we?

Before I get started with the weekly predictions, let’s establish something. These predictions are assuming that, not only does Nick Foles win the starting job, but he plays at a decent level. I’m not talking a Pro Bowl level, but good enough.

Let’s assume Foles finishes the 2020 season with a line similar to this: 4,100 passing yards, 30 passing touchdowns and 14 interceptions. It won’t blow you away, but it should get the job done. So again, with that in mind, let’s get going.
