Chicago Bears vs Carolina Panthers The Panthers (1-0-0) host the Bears (1-0-0) at the Bank of America Stadium on 09/14. Kickoff time is 1:00 pm EST Discuss....
I am a believer again in that Bears defense and I think they will do a decent job of containing the Panthers 2 headed monster forcing the Panthers to try to win in the air. Low scoring defensive battle here. Bears 20 Panthers 10
If the Bears defense does to Jake Delhomme what they did to Peyton Manning, the Bears win this game and no Panthers magic on the final play of the game.
This was a hard pick, but I'm going Bears because I was impressed with their Defense and running game in week1.
The Bears dominated the first half but unfortunately that domination does not show up on the scoreboard thanks to Greg Olsen's fumble. Overall the offense has moved the ball a lot better than expected against the Panthers D. But yes, they need to get more points. The defense has been money. Maynard needs to boom those punts a bit more. Not a bad start but the 2nd half needs to begin with a strong Bears scoring drive.
Greg Olsen is trying to give the game away. He has cost the Bears anywhere from 10-14 points in this game so far.
What the heck! Olsen is usually sure handed. I hope they get the ball back. Btw, NFL.com has changed the game center for the worse. I can't even tell what the heck is going on.
