Have the Bears passed the Browns as the worse franchise in t

Nope, we are not Browns level bad but I would say we are the Browns of the NFC...

No light at the end of the tunnel? The Bears have a boarderline top 10 def, a top 5 rb, and solid to great OL(if they could ever get healthy) and for the first time a young high ceiling QB.

How is there no light at the end of the tunnel? How are they even close to the Browns who are right now 1 and 27 games(last year and this year) and 4 in 43 games(last 2 years + this year). Bears had a rough go of it, but they bottomed out and are climbing up. Ya they cannot compete w/legit SB contending clubs yet; did you really expect them to this year?

Could be terrible coaching? Could be yet again the owners seeing that no matter who coaches the team is always the same. 

Dunno, Ric, your assessment seems a little rose-colored to me.  I hope you’re right.

I see a team/franchise headed to its 4th straight last place finish who hasn’t had a winning season in 6 years or made the payoffs in 7.  That maybe isn’t full-on Brownian yet but it’s getting a little beige.
