What to Expect This Season
The Chicago Bears will be in rebuilding mode but results could come fast and furious in 2017.
With the offense, fresh from an underperforming season with the New York Giants, Victor Cruz is likely to improve with the change in scenery many believe. After all, Cruz finished the first two seasons in the league with over 1,000 yards receiving.
Mitchell Trubisky will likely be starting for the Bears, but probably not until Week 3, if not later.
Jordan Howard is likely to be the league’s best rusher. In just 15 games played last season he finished with the second most rushing yards (1,313) in the NFL.
The defense has been focusing on the reduction of turnovers during the off season. Chicago is favored to win OVER 5.5 regular season games, which for us seems like a good bet.
Where to Find a Bookie
Bookies can be found in sports bars and pool halls for which there are so many around this great city. Some are among the best in the USA.
State Restaurant in Lincoln Park and DePaul, Theory near the North Side, Fatpour Tapworks in Ukrainian Village, Cortland’s Garage in Bucktown, Will’s Northwoods Inn in Lakeview and The Drinkingbird in DePaul just to name a few.
