Fellas....

What is your reasoning for the Bears upset? I love how people can just say "Bears will upset!"

I am a die hard, but can offer this:

*Bears OLine is horrific which means no run blocking which means Forte will not go anywhere.
*The Minny Big 3 will be after Cutler all day forcing Cutler to win the game. On the road, this means forced throws into coverage which equals INTs
*Bears WRs cannot create space from defensive coverage.
*AP is going to run all day over the Bears Rush Defense...Bears D has given up an average of 150 rushing ypg over the last 5 games.
*Favre will torch the secondary. Bears have averaged 2 sacks/game over the last 10 games and cannot pressure the QB.

This is hard for me to say but this is a bad spot for the Bears...really bad. I am going to watch the game with one eye open b/c it is going to get ugly.

I could see the Bears pulling off an upset in soldier field but not at Minnesota. Cutler will have to carry the Bears to victory because its hard to run on Minny and Chicago hasnt shown they can run on anyone. Also if Antoine Winfield plays, he should help sure up the Vikings secondary.

I like Washington +405 @ 5Dimes or actually Tampa +450 to upset the Falcons. The Eagles have been living and dying by the big play. Washington isnt great but their D could keep them in the game Falcons are coming off an ot loss and their offense has been struggling. Meanwhile Tampa has been playing well the last few weeks with Freeman under center. I am not taking any of these but i think there is more value out there than the Bears.

We know how it works...Favre looks spectacular to start the year...

Then the media falls in love with him again, and proclaim to never doubt his greatness

then Brett Favre goes Brett Favre, proving to the educated fans who cheer against him that they were always right

The Favre fans can never explain why he always throws picks to cost his team games

I'm not saying they're gonna lose to the Bears, but Favre will have at least 2 Brett Favre games before the season's over and Viking fans will be looking like

Let me define a Brett Favre game: a game in which Favre turns the ball over 2 or times, costing the team the game (in most of the Brett Favre games, he turns the ball over 4+ times)

Viking fans when the season's over

Forget about BEARS thing. I see no reason that Chicago can win this game. Look at the plays, the receivers cannot catch the ball.

Good to see some of you rootin for the Bears. They are an NFL team and do have the hope of getting things together. I think too many people underestimate the Bears today including their "die-hard" fans.

That's why it would be an upset if the Bears win
