Four to six weeks ago I would have said the Cards should forfeit this game. But the way the secondary (now ranked 4th) is playing so well under Ray Horton's game plans, if they can force a couple of turnovers the Cards have at least a shot against the Bears' declining passing game.
That I do not doubt and hope the D-Line and linebackers are ready for a heavy dose of Mr. Forte carrying the ball and on screens.
We need another go to WR ,teams have figured out that Marshal is our Offense...I think Bennett is back for this one. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
Kinda like Fitz. Roberts has his moments when Fitz is double or triple teamed and Michael Floyd is just a rook yet to knock anybody's socks off yet. But then again, all of them have no QB to rely on. And yes, Bennett has been practicing. Although the game is in Arizona, the stands will be packed with Bears' fans. Would normally say that home field is a plus for the Cards, but when the Bears (and Cowboys) are in town it sometimes tough to tell who the home team is.
yep, this is not the kind of match-up that is good for the cards. they are going to get a heavy dose of the running game, which doesn't play to their strength and i can't imagine them being able to move the ball very well on offense. having said that, the bears are really in a rut and sometimes that can play into an upset.
Don't deny one word of this. The only thing that has improved significantly, even during the losing streak, is the play of Campbell and Dockett. If they can contain the edges, then MAYBE they could help the backers be more effective. That's a big if with Forte carrying the rock.

Holy crap these offenses are awful. Absurdly awful. 9 of 11 pass attempts by cutler were thrown to Marshall. He is 1-11 over halfway through the second quarter. What a joke.
