Hope the Bears defence forces multiple turnovers and breaks Teebow and his college offence. Hester is going to be the difference for the Bears.
Barber is going to have to be steady with Forte out.

Go Bears!

The Bears defense needs to score some points. Not going to be easy, doesn't look like this college offense turns the ball over very much.

The Bears will have to take away Teebow's main target's the few times he does throw.

Man to man on Decker and Thomas.

Bears have a better personal at CB than the Raiders and the Vikings just stink.
Slide the FS over.

The Bears are good at forcing fumbles against the run. Get after McGahee.
Force the Bronco's to punt to Hester.
Get simple slants and bubbles to Knox.
But this Hanie kid who knows, not good. Bears have to keep it simple and he can not throw picks in his own end. Get Kellen Davis involved.
Its going to be a close low scoring game regardless.

I think you're reaching here pumping up the Bears.

I think the Broncos will be able to cause havoc against that Bears offensive line. IMO Cutler was making that line look a hell of a lot better than they really are running for his life whenever they go up against any team who can generate half a pass rush. Take Matt Forte out and the Bears become much more predictable since Barber isn't the same pass catcher out of the back field.

Also Denvers offensive line is a pretty young talented group, who should be able to match up against the Bears front 7 which is the strength of their defence.

I don't think this game could have lined up more favorably for the Broncos. It's looking to be a low scoring game, and if the Bronco's are smart, they'll just punt everything through the end zone or out of bounds in the thin mile high air. Take a 30 yard net if you have to and put the game on the Bears offence. I think John Fox is patient enough that he won't panic and give the Bears the chance to get turn overs. I don't think Mike Martz can install an offensive game plan which requires his offence to play that style of game.

I wonder which offene the Bears are preparing for....the college offense or the one the Broncos ran last week.

Hester can't be the difference unless he touches the ball. Prater will put every kickoff through the back of the endzone and Colquitt has been money kicking inside the 10 yard line all season.

I think you should be more concerned with how the Bears are going to avoid turning the ball over and keeping their QB upright. That's where the Broncos biggest advantage is this week.

Tragedy hits the Raiders Chris Johnson. Horrible story.

His sister was murdered and mother shot but expected to survive. Suspect is the sisters estranged boyfriend.

Thoughts and prayers. Makes all of our discussion of sports woes very small compared to this nightmare CJ is faced with.
My thoughts and prayers.

Browns is prime-time! When will that happen again?

Your raiders are going to have to win this week, cause with Forte out the Bears' chances went from slim to none. Forte at least kept defenses honest, but now you will see the Denver DEs pass rush all day and let the tackles and linebackers clean up on Barber.
Hanie will be under pressure all day with a weak O line and lots of players in the secondary waiting on Hanie to screw up.

Chicago's defense will step up and regardless of what the Denver O throws at them Chicago probably wont allow much in terms of big plays or Tebow running loose. I expect another low scoring game where the Bears fail to put real numbers on the board.

14-3 Denver, TDs from both the D and O

Stupid- Browns should have just rammed it in with a quarterback sneak... Why turn a 6 inch play into a 4 yard play??

[Flabbibulin]

uh oh... that didn't look good for Roethlisberger's ankle

Good news for Pats, Ravens, and Texans

[CaramonLS]

...And he's back. I'm not even sure how he can move with that injury.

[Sylvanfan]

Ben's like a Rubber man. Browns defense is playing tough here, but they need some playmakers on offence. I think we see a safety here though.

All the scratching and kicking has made him tough

[Flabbibulin]

just catching up on the pvr to the goal line stand... wow

[Sylvanfan]

I wonder how much Harrison will whine about this fine.

[Flabbibulin]

yuh, thats a no brainer.

[Flabbibulin]

How does Mccoy let himself get sacked there?! clown

[Flabbibulin]

Im gonna lose it if these clowns manage to beat the niners

[troutman]

Why would PITT put Ben back in that game? They could put in Lady Gaga and still beat the Browns every time.

The Browns defence is scrappy, but I have seen enough of McCoy - he will not be the answer.

[Montana Moe]

If there's one thing we've learned, it's that Ben Roethlisberger does not take no for an answer.
