Bears linebacker Lance Briggs knows just how high expectations are for the Bears in 2012.
After a successful offseason from first-year general manager Phil Emery, Briggs thinks the Bears have all the pieces in place to meet those expectations.
“On paper, we look like a champion, but we have a lot of work to do before we can be called a champion,” Briggs told The Mully and Hanley Show on WSCR-670 AM in Chicago.
“There were moves that were made in the offseason to bring in a lot of veteran (players.) Of course, Brandon Marshall and Michael Bush just put us in a position where we’re able to transition that stuff onto the field to be a real contender.”
“We definitely have the right ingredients for a high-powered offense,” Briggs said. “When our defense is on the sideline and our offense is scoring points, everybody is happy.”
