Sporting News' have been made with the understanding that the pro football landscape almost surely will be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in some way through Mitch Wishnowsky Jersey the fall and winter.So predictions regarding how all teams including the Bears will finish in the 2020 NFL standings and beyond are more of a crap shoot than usual. We have no choice but to operate with the roster and schedule knowledge we have of all 32 teams heading into what will be a strange season.Based on NFL senior writer Vinnie Iyer's game picks for the entire 2020 season, SN is projecting a slight slip in Chicago from .500 to 7-9. We still have the Bears finishing ahead of the Lions in the NFC North, but even with an expanded NFL playoff field for 2020, Chicago doesn't get enough wins to reach the postseason.Below areIyer's predictions for the Bearsin 2020, plus how Vegas oddsmakers view their chances to win theSuper Bowl.MORE NFL PREDICTIONS:Bears record prediction for 2020Record: 7-9Division: No. 3in NFC NorthPlayoffs: N/AIyer's take:The Bears wont be battling either the Tevin Coleman Jersey Packers or the Vikings to regain playoff status in the NFC North. The uninspiring QB situation between Nick Foles and Mitchell Trubisky is a bad start. The defense will have more regre sion with no Eddie Goldman up front and new i sues at linebacker and cornerback. They will be at least one game worse in 2020.Haislop's take: If Foles ends up starting over Trubisky and plays at least adequately, the Bears have a strong enough roster to go better than 7-9 and even flirt with a division title. The problem is trusting Foles to play well enough to elevate Matt Nagy's offense.Bears odds for 2020 win total, Super BowlWin total: Over/under 8 1/2winsSuper Bowl odds: Steve Young Jersey According to the Super Bowl odds at , Chicago is expected to finish the season somewherebetween 5-11 and 9-7.
