Chicago Bears 2016 opponents are set

With the afternoon games all in the books, and the Chicago Bears ensured of taking 4th place in the NFC North, all of their 2016 opponents are now set.

Besides the six games against the NFC North, next season the Bears are set to square off against the NFC East and the AFC South. Two divisions that struggled most of the 2015 season.

HOME GAMES:

Detroit Lions

Green Bay Packers

Jacksonville Jaguars

Minnesota Vikings

Philadelphia Eagles

San Francisco 49ers

Tennessee Titans

Washington Redskins

I'm going out on a limb here and predicting the Bears will win more than just one game at Soldier Field in the 2016 season.

AWAY GAMES:

Dallas Cowboys

Detroit Lions

Green Bay Packers

Houston Texans

Indianapolis Colts

Minnesota Vikings

New York Giants

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Things will obviously change between now and the start of next season, but on paper this schedule seems a bit easier than the one the Bears just traversed. Of the 13 teams the Bears faced this year, seven made the playoffs.
