In November, the Chicago Bears fell to the Seahawks. Seattle's blitz schemes resulted in six sacks of Cutler in their 23-10 victory. The Bears are ready for a different result in their push through the playoffs.
How bad was New England's 36-7 defeat of the Bears on Sunday? Figure this; the Patriots were leading 33-0 at halftime while Jay Cutler and Mike Martz could only lead the beloved to 33 yards of total offense in the first half.
Every Bears loss has felt devastating this season. Jay Cutler was nearly sacked to death in New York. You don't lose to Seattle at home. You don't lose to the Redskins at home.
One of the biggest matchups in Sunday's game will be the Bears' offense against the Patriots' defense. The longer the Bears can keep Tom Brady off the field, the better chance they have to win.
Early in the season the lack of rushing yards made many wonder whether Matt Forte's career would be defined by his rookie season, or the season that followed.
The Vikings are fighting to get back into the NFC North race while the Bears have a chance to tie the Packers for the lead. Both teams have a lot to gain from Sunday's game.
Chester Taylor signed with the Bears in March, leaving the Vikings behind. This Sunday, the Bears face the Vikings and Taylor sees this is a big game for himself and his new team.
Hola from Toronto...wait that doesn't sound quite right. Anyway, the Bears find themselves in a must-win situation north of the border. The road to the playoffs becomes a lot more difficult if they leave Canada 4-4. Everyone at Halas Hall will feel vindicated in their off-week activities if the Bears can beat the winless Bills.
The Bears running backs were a position of strength coming into the season. Outside of the Carolina game they haven't been a featured part of the offense. That might change come Sunday.
The stats don't lie and neither does the film. Despite both of those, Cutler and Martz see reason for optimism.
