I thought the offense bounced back big time against Philly after the poor performance vs Buffalo. I look for them to take another step this week.
The defense allowed another 30 burger, only this time, half the points weren’t due to the offense putting them in tough positions. The D has to be better, and I think they will be.
I am predicting a statement game. You don’t follow up a narrow, last-second loss in OT to the defending NFC Champs with a dud performance at home. You follow it up with an ass-whooping.

Defense needs to get their act together. Everyone complaining about o-line, but the defense has been giving up 30-points a game for the past 3 games. They are supposed to be the best unit in the team and have the most resources. In particular is concerning that the d-line is not living up to their talent and expectations.
Also, it will be important to score early and take an early lead. The Bears are a good running team, and we should force them to try to beat us by passing.
