Don't overestimate that team, they could very well pick up his 5th year. Even if they don't, someone will try to "fix" him. He has a strong arm and is a very good runner. Even then after he flames out with his next team, he will stick around for a while as a backup, see for example another ex-Bear Rex Grossman.
As for the Bears in general, they are not a bad team. Their defense wasn't as dominant as last year, but they had some injuries (especially Hicks). I think the league also wised up to Nagy's trick plays, weird formations etc. Getting rid of Howard was stupid IMO, as much as Montgomery seems to be a decent back, Howard kept teams honest. As much as I would like them to be heading for the cellar and dismal seasons, I think they will be decent enough even with Trubitzky.
Decent is right where we want them. Not drafting in the top 10 but not good enough to have to deal with their fans arrogance.
