Big game for both teams here. Bears are one game ahead of the Packers in the NFC North. The Seahawks are hanging to that second NFC wildcard spot with 5 teams hot on their heals for that spot.
i really don't think the hawks will win this. they have trouble winning on the road and the bears are pretty tough at soldier field. in addition, i think the bears can contain the hawks running game. it won't be a blowout, probably a 3 point bears win or something like that.
The last two times the Seahawks came to Soldier Field during the regular season (2010 and 2011), they left with a win both times. This game is a battle of two top ten defenses. However, IF the suspensions for Seattle's two CBs are upheld, thats two big losses for the Seahawks. I expect the Bears to win this game but I don't know whether to expect it to be close or a blowout. A 13-10 Bears victory wouldn't be suprising. A 35-7 Bears victory wouldn't be suprising either. Both teams need this game badly.
since the bears were stuck with caleb hanie in last year's match against the seahawks, i think it's only fair that the hawks be without their starting CB's this year to even things out. :newlaugh:
Drug suspensions are very rarely overturned. So with that being said, unless their appeal goes on past this sunday, they won't be playing which wouldn't bother me one bit, lol.

The Bears definitely need to win this one. They have to maintain their slim lead over the Packers, with the last 4 critical games coming up.
Thinkin' Bears win this one but this 'new & improved' Bear OL :icon_rolleyes: scares me even worse than before.
