Bears 2.5 underdogs

[jasonluckydog]

We play Da Bears this week I believe this is our 1st game as the favorite.

Reading the comments you think we play the Saints this week 

[Dex]

Technically they're the favorite since the home team usually gets an automatic 3pts.

Well poo.

[Mr. Scot]

I don't really think the Bears are that great.

People have pointed to their defense, and that's a valid concern. Their offense though...

That Bear fan needs to come back so I can properly adress him

[NAS]

I guess we will find out how Rhule handles success

[Soul Rebel]

I prefer being the underdog but agree that the line is pretty much even considering we are the home team. 

We should beat the Bears this week. I don't personally think their 4-1 record is as strong as it appears. However, a W is a W and an L is an L, so they are still 4-1 regardless of how they win games. 

At some point there also has to be some Robby/"Who's That Bear" memes popping up for this game, right?

I've got a feeling more than one of his teammates is going to ask Anderson "Hey, what's that Bear doing?" at some point during the game

Hopefully the answer is "not a damn thing"

Bears offense isn't that bad, they just aren't consistent.  They have had solid second half / fourth quarter performances.  

Our DBs have been good this year, and limiting Hopkins gives me hope, but A-Rob is a problem.  If Donte is out, I think he's got to be my biggest concern of the game, even more than Khalil Mack.  

Team-wise, you need to avoid the turnovers every game, but this game even more-so.  We can beat the Bears if we don't turn it over, but that defense is too good to overcome self-inflicted wounds.  Force their offense to beat us.  Take the 3 points.  I think this is one of those games where you just make sure you aren't over-thinking things and getting overly aggressive.

I like our chances if TB and the Panthers offense can stay one step ahead of the Bears D.

I think the home team shouldn't matter as much with no fans in the stadium.  Over than having to fly and stay in a hotel, what difference does it make.  And the Bears are only one time zone different, so its not like flying from the west coast and playing a 1pm eastern game.  

 

That being said, I hope we cover.
