LittleHurt05 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 QUOTE (kev211 @ Jan 10, 2011 -> 12:33 PM) I also believe the Pack at home would be easier then Atlanta in Atlanta, but that's enough looking ahead for me. I'm not completely sold on that thought, with the way the Packers have been playing, and with the turf helping the Bears defensive speed. That being said, it only matters if they beat the Sea Chickens. I think it could be a tough game, the Bears were playing like s*** in October, but they were still manhandled at home by them.

JPN366 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jan 10, 2011 -> 01:54 AM) Agreed. I think people are forgetting that the Seahawks offense has to play against the Bears defense. I have confidence in the Bears against Seattle even if the offense doesn't light it up. There's no way Seattle puts up 40 points again, that's a given. And Marshawn Lynch and the Seahawks running game has been horrible all year. I'm not going to let 1 amazing 67 yard run scare me. Not to mention I'll put the Bears special teams up against about anybody in the NFL. The Bears SHOULD handle the Seahawks, especially at home, but this is the NFL. Anything can happen. The Seahawks running game has been the best it has been all year the last two weeks. 141 against the Rams and 149 against the Saints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those 2 teams were #22 and #17 respectively in rushing yards per attempt and #16 and #17 in total rushing yards given up this year. They face #6 in YPA and #2 in total rushing yards given up this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 It Appears that Ron Rivera will finally get a head coaching job (Carolina), adding yet another former Bear player to the NFL head coaching ranks. Good hire for them. Now they need someone to handle their offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoSox05 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 People are way to concerned about the Packers running game. It's not 1976. You don't need to run the ball. If the Packers picked up 75 yards rushing on Saturday I would be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
