DraftKings has our win total line at 8.5, thoughts?

All I know is that the Falcons at 10.5 is wild. Under all day
by week 9
My expectations is at least 9-8, and for my own sanity and im sure this goes for everyone else on this subreddit is that we at least go 1-1 with the packers. I seriously cant go into anymore packers games that i know the bears are going to get embarrassed.
It feels right. Better OC, better weapons, rookie QB, slightly harder schedule, same coach
But we’re one Caleb injury from a dumpster fire season. Given he’s likely to take a lot of sacks his first year, it’s worth considering.
I thought 9 was realistic so I’ll be pounding the over
I’d take the over, personally, but it’s a fair line considering the rookie QB.
I’d put it at 9 personally
8.5 is very fair. Last year we were 7.5.
The bears play a last place schedule. Pound that over. The following year though when they play a second or third place schedule hit the under. Classic bears.
If we don’t hit the over it’s a failed season unless we have just catastrophic injuries
Maybe? Let’s see how our rookie QB does. There’s a chance.
Im taking the over
i’d take the lions over at 10.5 if i was a gambling man.

Taking the under
I think Vegas needs to see us fill more holes through the draft and any additions that can happen before season start before any line moves for us Bears. Also Bear QBs being drafted high and working has just never happened before so I’m sure Vegas would be cautious even with a generational talent rookie. Even for WR Moore was one of the few of his position who did well elsewhere and came to Chicago and did better or as good here as he did prior. Name another recent free agent WR that fits that for us. Maybe Brandon Marshall but he was probably better when he played in Denver. It’s tough to throw and catch the ball in Chicago.
Sounds about right. People will say, “We had 7 wins last year, and we’re way better now!” but it’s not really that simple. Our schedule is harder this year, and even the most talented quarterbacks can struggle pretty bad as a rookie; expecting a Stroud-like season is unrealistic, even with better receivers.
The Packers at 10.5 is nonsense, though. Love played good for half a season; they shouldn’t be on the same level as the Lions.
That’s a good line I can see both 9-8 or 8-9. Will take 7-10 if we beat the shit out of the Packers twice.
I can see 8-9 wins.
I think we hit 10 barring bad injury luck
Overall improved roster but a rookie QB and a questionable HC. I’d probably take over but it’s not a terrible line.
Thats very fair tbh
I see a potential for 10 wins. I pretty much always assume splitting within the division. Then imo the other beatable teams would be: Seahawks, Titans, Panthers, Patriots, Cardinals, Colts, Commanders.
Take the over.
I recommend you guys put your entire life savings and take out 2nd mortgages and smash the over
Over
Probably should ask Shohei or Ippei
Lol. The draft hasn’t happened and there’s a #9 pick nobody really knows what we’re doing with.
And no one has any *real* idea how Caleb will fare. He could be awesome and we win 10+ (my hopes are in this basket). Or he could be fools gold and we win 4-6 games.
