ESPN John Clayton has a cautiously optimistic Bears piece

Surprisingly optimistic, considering where ESPN (with Clayton's help) put the Bears on the pre-season power rankings.

Interesting indeed

I was glad to see that. Personally, I think John Clayton is the best of ESPN’s football coverage team. Clayton is always knowledgeable and realistic in his assesments/predictions.

He's a reporter, not an analyst.

I don't like it

I want this team to ride the negativity all the way to the playoffs.

It just shocked me that ....

…. a knowledgeable NFL guy thought we were good . I agree though the attuide of this team seems to be helped by all this negative press and harsh comments .

He makes some really valid points. Points that as Bears fans, we are very aware of. The way he described the speed at WR, coupled along with Cutler’s accuracy and adoption of Martz’s system, sounds as if they’ll score a few points this season. I also love the fact that Aroma will see time in the slot; imagine him with his size and speed against a shorter less physical CB? OMG.
