QB

J. Cutler

Doub Sun Ankle 11/19/13

Cutler suffered a high ankle sprain in Week 10 against the Lions and has not played since. He is dealing with serious ligament issues and is still a few weeks away from returning.

 

That means I'm still a few weeks away from NOT picking the Bears......

Chicago FTW......

Rams win

Da Bears just beat the champs and division opponent on deck, Bears will lack focus in this matchup.

I'll take the unders in this one

MATH PLAY OF THE WEEK:

Chicago Away Games:  35.0 points scored, 32.0 points given up.

St. Louis Home Games:  20.4 points scored, 24.2 points given up.

Add all numbers, divide by two and you get 55.8 points predicted.

That's a full 10+ points higher than the posted total of 45.5 which IMO will probably drop before kickoff.

OVER - BIG PLAY

What is with the f*(&^%g font ? ... we can read normal size lettering thanks. I would think you guys were blind but it's not "rediculous size" braille so I can't figure it out.

St Louis   using   back up QB  today

I don't like Rams as favorites, they always seem to lose those. Coming off a bye not sure if that will help them. But.. the Rams have the better D when playing at home and with Zac Stacy running against a soft Bear run defense. On the other side , the Bears can pass and i just realized the Rams have no Finnegan which should help the Bears. Jeffery or Marshall will have big game. Bears just have more weapons and pass protection has been mostly solid for Bears. Gimme Bears in a close one

RAMS

The Rams look like the play here. Jeff Fisher has his team gathering momentum week by week. It has been proven that the Bears are better with McCown at the helm but I believe that the Chicago defense will be their downfall today. In their last 3 games the Bear rush defense has given up 174 yds to the Ravens, 145 yds to the Lions, and 199 to the Packers. The Rams in their last 3 have rushed for 140 yds against the Colts, 160 against the Titans and 139 against the Seahawks. Too much of a mismatch for the pros. The Rams front 7 plays a roll in this one and McCown may struggle a little more than he has in his other 2 starts. Rams coming out of a bye in a must win situation and I believe Fisher has their focus on the game at hand. Rams -1, GLTA!

Cutler is a non-factor in this game.  Rams score 30+ on the crappy Bears D and the Bears O plays catch up all day long. 

28 point first quarter anyone?
