I don't think you should not be asking.

That should never even come up at this point in time, even if they're not what they are.

I mean, of course, it'll be July, August.

They're not going to be what they are in November and December.

We saw that last year.

But you shouldn't have that major issue this year.

I think it's just a whole new ballgame for the Bears.

It's new territory.

Even as long as I've been around, this is still new territory.

Having an offense like this, you can really expect to kind of be the show.

Well, the floor is more important.

I don't know what the ceiling is because, like, you know, last year they had good chemistry, they had good additions, and the bulb went their way.

So, you know, it's hard to say if they can replicate that.

So, really, the issue is what is the floor?

And if they don't get a pass rush, I think it's going to just put more and more, it's going to put a lot of pressure on the offense to be good.

But now you have an offense that can win games literally 47-42.

So I don't think it's going to be as big an issue.

I think this defense will be better.

It's Dennis Allen's second year, too.
