NFL Network predicts outcome of every Bears game in 2022

The Chicago Bears have a chance to surprise many critics heading into the 2022 season, where expectations are pretty low. So low, in fact, that some even believe Chicago will finish with the worst record in the NFL.

But the Bears do have a favorable schedule — one of the easiest in the league — so there are plenty of opportunities for wins on their 2022 slate. Although that doesn’t guarantee anything.

We shared our way-too-early game-by-game predictions for the Bears schedule back in May. Now, NFL Network’s Adam Rank, a noted Bears fan, is doing the same.

Here’s a look at how Rank sees each game shaking out for the Bears in 2022 — and it just might surprise you.
