The preseason is pretty much over.  Only a few roster spots remain up for grabs.  So the time has come for some NFL team predictions.  What awaits the Chicago Bears in 2015?  Here is a rundown of what to expect, good or bad.

Offensive MVP:  Jay Cutler

This may come as a shock to most fans but the reality is evident in the way Jay Cutler is playing.  He’s had no quality receivers to throw to (top four are injured) and his offensive line has really struggled, especially at the tackle positions.  One would think this would’ve brought out old Jay with the constant turnover problems.

Instead, Cutler has played remarkably clean.  He hasn’t turned it over once and still managed to lead some decent field goal drives against good defenses despite the lack of weapons.  Provided this sudden control carries over into the regular season when he starts to get those guys back, then Cutler should have a good year.
