With 2 WR's out, I would think they will have Sanz and Weems out there. If they don't use Sanz now, they may as well get rid of him because they never will.

I wasn't going to post it, but I thought the EXACT same thing. Let's face it. It's a poor oline already.Quote:

The toughest game of all on the rest of the schedule is this week against Seattle. If their DB's aren't suspended for 'roids then we can win, if they aren't yet because of an appeal, we'll likely lose.
Three of the last five of Green Bays' games I would expect them to win (Lions, Vikings, and Titans all home games). The Vikings at home? Closer, but I think GBP will win that one as well.
Why?
I mentioned in another thread, Benson, (as much as I dislike the player) has run well since he left Chicago and will be back on offense. Jennings will finally be healthy and will help improve GB's offense. While Bulaga (gb o-lineman) is out for the season, GB lost a second guy Sunday night (I haven't heard an update for him). Offensively, GB will be much better by the time they come to Chicago, and most likely a week or 2 before then.
Defensively, Matthews is supposed to be back this week or the next, I don't know exactly when Perry(1st rd draft pick) will be back, but it's soon as well, and if I recall correctly, the Bears-packers game will be Woodsons' first game back. Defensively, GB will be a better team by the time we play them again.
(No I dont run around checking GBs' website, nor am I a closet pack fan, but I do live in Wisconsin, and this info often makes the nightly news. It's just more effort to avoid the info than I think the packers are worth.)
The Bears-Packer game could go either way. This puts GB at 11-5 or 12-4 (pending outcome of Bears-pack game).
I look at our last 5 games and I see ONE game that I am comfortable saying the Bears will win (Bears-Cards). The upside is that I CAN see the Bears being able to win each of the remaining games. West coast teams often don't travel well, so the Bears-Seahawks game is one that can be won. Minnesota is loud, and Webb seems to get owned by Allen there, but the Bears are a better team. Detroit is gonna play us hard, but the last game of a lost season? The fans may well not show up, we could win that one too. The Bears-Pack game I've already mentioned.
If the Bears can win vs Arizona and one other game, that puts us at 10-6(my preseason prediction). If the Bears can beat either the Seahawks or the Packers(one win), either Detroit or Minnesota(one win), and win against the Cardinals then that puts the bears at 11-5.
I'd feel a lot better if the Bears went 11-5.......

Yep, at the time I made my post, they hadn't yet announced it was adderall, rather just "performance enhancing drugs". I made an assumption, but thanks for the correction & info.Quote:

I think the packers have more issues than the bears and they have not looked much better than the bears. I think the bears will win the division.
Yep, Seattle always gives us trouble and there's really not been enough time to get our two new OGs working well with everyone else. Cutler needs to have happy feet again and hope that the guys who get open don't drop the big throws.Quote:

Will Tice use Bush like he has been? Whose playing on D and who isn't?
If I had the answers to those questions I'd know how to bet the game. Home game or not this one is dangerous. Maybe even more so than the Packer game since we should be better prepared for them this time........I hope.
