Arizona (-2) @ Bears (9-20-15)

[oldunclemark]

FOX - 1 p.m. EST ... 65 degrees and sunny ... over-under 46

Alshon Jeffery, Jon Bostic, Tracy Porter ..all out for Bears...

RB Andre Ellington - out Cards

New Bears DC Vic Fangio faced Arizona twice a year when he was with SF.

Matt Forte ran for 141 yards last week on 22 carries (16 for 105 in the 1st half) and new coach John Fox would rather run it...Jay Cutler only threw one Interception last week.....Bears need this game badly because they are the 'guests' for Seattle's home opener next week.

QB Carson Palmer threw for 307 yards and fired 3 TDs in the 31-19 win over NOLA last week..and the Cards held the Saints to 54 yards rushing...all-pro Patrick Peterson probably covers Bears TE Martellus Bennett..

//46 seems high ...Bears don't have much at WR left..and Cards cant run.

But I think Arizona should be favored by more than 3......

Good weather really favors Palmer throwing the ball...If it was -4 or -5 I'd still take Arizona...

21-14 Arizona late 2nd Q

Jay Cutler...8 of his first 8!!!

..and then a pick - 6 for Arizona..28-14...and Cutler gets hurt trying to make the tackle..Old Jimmy Claussen in at QB

FINAL: 48-23 Arizona...Bears drew 170 yards in penalties......most in one Bear game since World War II..

...If John Fox didn't know what he was getting into, I guess he does now...

hard to watch
