Can the Chicago Bears win the NFC NORTH?

You answered your own question. They don't have good WR's. They can't contain Adrian Peterson everytime they play the Vikings. Their defense is decent but could be better. And I don't know about the best set of Linebackers in the NFL. I suppose you missed the Vikings Preseason game against the Chiefs on Friday. Their second stringers looked like starters. The Vikings have every piece in place to win not only the division but the NFC in it's entirety. Their defense is stout, Jared Allen is a monster, so are Pat and Kevin, Winfield will knock you out cold. Peterson can tear through almost any defense, and his numbers definitely go up this year with Favre in the mix. AND they have added like 20 new plays for Percy. Jay Cutler is a decent quarterback, but you need to have a decent set of WR's and the Bears just don't have that.
