Luis Medina, Patrick Flowers, and Matt Rooney preview Week 1, highlight key Bears to watch beyond Caleb Williams, and make their season predictions, MVP picks, and Super Bowl forecasts.
Week 1 is here, and the Bleacher Nation Bears Podcast is setting the table for the start of the regular season.
Hosts Luis Medina, Patrick Flowers, and Matt Rooney open with a temperature check on the Bears heading into Week 1 and how confident they feel about this team after an offseason full of expectations.
The guys then highlight some of the most important Bears to watch beyond Caleb Williams, including D’Andre Swift and his role in Ben Johnson’s offense. With Johnson emphasizing the importance of the running game throughout the offseason, they discuss what Swift could mean for Chicago’s offense right out of the gate.
Finally, it’s time for some season superlatives and predictions. Patrick has the Bears finishing 12-5, Matt checks in at 11-6, and Luis lands at 10-7 as they make their picks for offensive and defensive MVP, the players with the most to gain and lose this season, and even predict a potential Bears Super Bowl opponent.
