Who's the better "mudder" ....Forte or Bush?

High wind doesn't seem to affect Cutler on medium range passes. We need Bennett in the rain, not Hester.

Sounds like it is going to be rainy and blustery for the game (not uncommon conditions at all for the Chicago lakefront in November). That should make the passing game--the deep passing game anyway--pretty tough for either side to utilize much. It's looking more and more like it will be a low scoring battle of rushers, defenses, and possession passing. I'd take the "under" on total points for sure.

Another interesting wrinkle that I think favors the Bears a bit will be: Swirling 35 mph winds will make FG kicking a challenge and there aren't many better kickers in the NFL than Robbie Gould, especially with experience navigating Soldier Field conditions.

Interesting.... I've seen nothing but respect and admiration for the Bears by the Texans fans here.

I agree completely. And the same has been true for the Bears fans on the Texans board. Great respectful football talk leading up to the game

Yep, not really sure what he was talking about. Should be a hell of a game.

The Falcons lost today are are now 8-1. Whoever wins this game will be tied for the best record in the NFL. Just a little extra juice to motivate the players.
