If so, what is it?

Seriously this year they are stuck with his money and no one in the free market (barring trade) is available that is better.

I believe that the offense, as currently constructed, can compete every single weekend with any team in the NFL. This leads me to believe they have the talent to be a playoff team. I cannot deconstruct a team I think cam make the playoffs.

I think they have to be better than last year but not as good as year before. Simply with professional coaches. The defense cannot be worse. So 8-8 at worst I think. Therefore, I agree with you.

when I heard Urlacher talk about going to a 3-4 and how much better Shea will fit in....all hope sailed.

The OL, an undervalued component from Trestman Year 1 was decimated by injuries. Slauson, their best lineman from Year 1, barely played. Garza wasn't available at the start of the season. Long missed time.

The WR did not get separation because they too were injured.

I am as bullish on the Bears as I was at the start of last season.

Depending on what it is (I assume low) I will definitely take the over on Bears wins.

Has the offense, as currently constructed, changed from the one that was routinely shut out for entire halves? If you're saying the current offensive players, with better coaching, can compete, then maybe.

Depends on how you look at it. They went 5-11 (or 5-10) with him...do you think the results could have actually been worse with someone else starting? As much as McCown wet the bed in TB (with no supporting talent and an even worse coaching staff), I think he would have managed at least 5 wins with the Bears.

The secret to beating the Packers is deep breathing.

Can't throw anymore.

I could throw a ball over a mountain though when I was in high school though.

That the team has a lot of problems to fix, and given how bad they were last year and how tough the schedule appears to be next year, they aren't likely to contend anyway.
