Re: PokerFink\'s 2007 NFC Rankings (Week 5)

Why do you (Wes) have Chicago so high? They are 2-3, they have the worst offense in the NFL (or at least they are competing with SF for that distinction) and their defense is a wreck right now. It only ranks 17th in DVOA and this is the defensive side of their injury report:...

I did put injuries and other factors like you mentioned into consideration. In addition, I think they could win 4 of the next 6 games, the Bears schedule is not that difficult. Over the next few weeks (maybe longer) evaluating how well some injured players perform after they come back and how the offense adjusting to Griese, could change things. Griese (QB rating of 78) is already an improvement over Grossman (45)... in addition I think his numbers will get better.
