Reading Time: 2 minutesI have seen expectations and predictions that range from anywhere between 100 yards to 700 for the WR group. The expectations for Mooney seem a bit high considering that Nagy in past seasons has handicapped our rookie receivers workload for reasons that are unknown. That being said, if Mooney were to have a role on offense I believe that he would have an immediate impact that could help other Bears receivers. A deep threat, something the Bears have been lacking but trying to address since Mike Glennon was our QB, by signing Markus Wheaton in 2017...

Reading Time: 2 minutesIt is almost too easy to overlook the Lions in Week 1 of the upcoming season.

Since Matt Nagy has taken over the offense, the...
