The Bears football team has had many ups and downs, but ever since the old days of the Bears, our club has fallen off and many people have made fun of and have taken the Bears as a joke. If you walk around town with a Bears jersey, normally people will make fun of you because the Bears are probably down by 30 on a Sunday afternoon, and overall it’s generally pretty rough being a Bear fan. Especially dealing with the Packer fans, there are many fights and arguments with them as the Bears and the Packer are the biggest rivalry in football. Although this year is going to be different, especially with our new quarterback Justin Fields who is currently helping us rebuild our legacy and become one of the greats once more and finally beat the Packers.
This year we have gotten a lot of new and good players that will develop majorly over time and make the Bears football team one of the best very soon. We have a lot of youngsters on the team as we have traded for picks, and we also have a new head coach so we might need some time to adjust but we should start doing better this year as last year was a disaster. Our quarterback last year was Justin Fields, but it was his first year playing in the NFL which is a big difference compared to college football. In the end, all of our first and second round picks that we have made over the past years will be worth it as we win this year’s Super Bowl and prove everyone wrong.
In addition, Da Bears football team has had some rough coaching over the past couple of years. For example, we have gone through 17 coaches all together. Now, we have Matt Eberflus as our head coach and we are 1-1 this year. Eberflus has a good understanding of the game and if he plays his cards and players right we should do just fine this year and prove the haters wrong again. For example, one of the great Bears Mike Ditka once said; “Before you can win, you have to believe you are worthy.” Ditka was one of the best football players to ever touch a football, and he was not only a Bears football player, but he was also their head coach for a while as well.
Overall, the Bears football team is on an upwards hill and we are trying to climb our way back to the top of the leaderboards in the NFL and prove to the other teams that we are legit and we are not to be messed with.
